Editorial Review for Limelight Restaurant & Lounge – by Citysearch Editors

In Short
Pool tables, jukebox, vintage video games and stiff-pouring bartenders make for a raucous time for the hip 20-somethings who frequent this fun spot. Hit cocktails include the Sweet Tart and the Jolly Rancher, as well as the Long Island Iced Tea served in a carafe. The menu represents the apex of bar food. Carefully assembled salads are fresh and soups are homemade. The hamburger is thick and juicy and fries are lightly battered, thin and crisp.

Took my elderly folks to lunch here and the cute waitress was very patient with them. The food was satisfactory enough but it was the pool tables in the bar that caught my eye. I certainly will go back for a meal and shoot some pool. A very friendly place.

Pros: Good food, pool tables in bar, cute wait staff

Cons: Schredded lettuce on burgers and flimsy hamburger buns

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

I love this place! My best friend and I have been regulars for over a year now. The wait staff is awesome we don't even need to order because they know our order every time........2 Bacon swiss burgers with a pile of awesome crispy fries and 2 long island's hold the gin extra tequila served in those fantabulous mini carafe's!!! Feels like your getting two drinks for the price of one!!! Almost didn't want to brag about how great this place is because I like the cozy feel with the new artsy pictures for sale posted on the walls. The burgers are great, not greasy and you can tell it's real beef and not the processed stuff. The owner is a great guy and the servers are very nice. Service is great, food is always hot and fresh! And it's no smoking inside, which is super nice. Who likes to eat and smell the linger of some stale nasty cigerette. If your looking for the best burger and fries in town, this is the place to go! And of course for the long islands! :)
