How we cook

Three ideas behind every plate

A short philosophy guests can taste — not a manifesto on the wall.

Seasonal first

The market decides the menu. We rewrite plates weekly so flavors stay sharp and honest.

Fire & citrus

Wood oven heat meets bright acidity — richness without heaviness, brightness without sharpness.

Unhurried hospitality

Soft pacing, attentive service, and a room designed for lingering — not rushing the check.

Our story

Cooking with citrus, fire, and the season

Lime began as a neighborhood table with a simple idea: plates that taste like summer evenings — bright, generous, and grounded in local farms. Today we still shop the market each week and let the produce write the menu.

Come for the Grove Spritz. Stay for the wood-roasted chicken and a room that never feels rushed.

Our house pour

Grove Spritz

Prosecco, cold-pressed lime cordial, elderflower, and soda. Floral, dry, and built to open the evening — not overwhelm it.

Ask for it with the citrus-cured salmon.

“A spritz should open the evening — not end it early.”

Marcus Hale · Beverage Director
