More Than a Lime

WHERE GOOD VIBES NEVER STOP

From beach bars and roadside grills to family cookouts and tropical cafés, every stop is filled with bold island flavors and warm Caribbean hospitality.


The Lime is where great food, refreshing drinks, good music, and good people come together to celebrate island life.

A TASTE OF THE ISLANDS

More Than a Caribbean Hangout

It’s Carnival costumes, colorful flags, domino games, family cookouts, beach gatherings, and neighbors becoming friends. Here, every meal is shared, every song invites you to dance, and every visit captures the joyful spirit of the Caribbean—where good food, great music, and even better company bring everyone together.
