Lime Fresh Mexican Grill Reopens Original South Beach Location | Eater Miami

"I saw that LIME Fresh Mexican Grill, the South-Florida–born fast-casual Mexican restaurant concept, has officially re-opened in South Beach at 1439 Alton Road — the exact same 800-square-foot location where it originally launched in 2004. The new location is owned and operated by Left Field Holdings, LLC, a Miami-based franchisee that currently owns four Lime restaurants in South Beach, Downtown Dadeland, Doral and West Kendall, with locations in Midtown Miami and North Miami coming soon; the original restaurant was owned by John Kunkel of 50 Eggs Group and was sold to Ruby Tuesdays in 2012. Known for guacamole, queso dip, nachos, tacos, burritos, salads, soups and margaritas, the restaurant made a name for itself in the early aughts. To celebrate its return to South Beach, this location will offer the original 2004 menu and pricing for two weeks, staff will wear the original 2004 uniforms, and images will decorate the restaurant commemorating the people and events that defined 2004. The South Beach location is open Sunday through Thursday from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. and Friday and Saturday from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m." - Olee Fowler
