The bartender and the staff extremely helpful and so nice and friendly Ambiance cool with great music the decor is nice too hot to sit on the patio but an option I enjoyed a strawberry & pineapple margarita as well as a passion fruit and a shot of tequila read more

Margaritas are very good here, but food is questionable. 2.5 stars. Second time coming here. After the meal, wife immediately got sick from food poisoning (she ordered the chori(zo) pollo). Also while we were there, the waiter spilled our food down my back bringing it out with too much in his hands. The manager (I assume) appeared and asked if I was okay but didn't comp anything. Maybe bad luck in both cases, but we won't be going back anytime soon. Edit: restaurant comped our whole bill later tonight, after learning wife got sick, which is very considerate. Still unlikely to return. read more

I was disappointed and won't return. Food was okay. I ordered the Mexican rice bowl. Which was very tasty and filling. However, the Elote was possibly one of the worst I ever had. The service was terrible. I went to wash my hands immediately after we were seated. When I returned, water had been served. When our server returned we ordered appetizer, she put the order in and immediately returned to get our dinner order then she just vanished. After 25 minutes, she returned with our dinner order but the appetizer still hadn't come out. she went to get it after I asked again then vanished again. I never got to order a drink which I heard were fabulous. We flagged her down to get boxes and the bill at which time our server became Ms. Attentive because, I guess, she wanted a tip. I'd be willing try again if the service was better or even acknowledged in some way but it wasn't. Do not recommend if service is important to you. read more

Tested. Great food wonderful staff and service. Excited to go back for a full meal! It's a beautiful space and very clean! read more

Limon Y Sal - Mexican Near Me - Louisville, Kentucky

We recently dined at Limón y Sal on Shelbyville Road in the old Molly Malone's. It's a bright restaurant that fills up the space. Lots of seating options and we were able to sit immediately with a table of eight! The menu is pretty large with quesadillas, sopas, tacos, tortas, burritos and other Mexican fare. We started with drinks - they had a special for margaritas and they were strong! Only needed one! We started with queso and chorizo dip for the table. The chips were light and fresh and pretty addictive! After much debate, I ordered the pollo poblano - grilled chicken cooked in a creama sauce and served with rice and beans. It also came with a choice of corn or flour tortillas. It was good but kind of plain, it was only chicken and no accompanying veggies - they were blended into the sauce. My husband ordered the carnitas and really enjoyed the big chucks of crispy pork with rice. The kids menu included tacos, enchilada, quesadillas, cheeseburger,chicken fingers and burrito - reasonably priced at $7. We enjoyed dinner and will be back! read more

The food service and ambiance of the new location is perfect! This location is bigger and can accommodate more guests. They also have outside dining with a roof. I had the shrimp & crab tacos on a blue corn tortilla. It was delicious. We also had a margarita flight . You have to go to either location. The food is so delicious and the service is always top tier. read more

Yum! And - nice work renovating this once Irish restaurant that was dark and drab into a colorful, beautiful, and lively spot. My group of four friends loved the vibe and we had great service. The salsa, even the hot, could use more flavor but loved the chips. The margaritas are delish and I recommend the flight. They can be potent! I opted for the keto carnitas tacos. I missed they came on lettuce wraps but totally makes sense. The carnitas with pineapple pico and crema was so, so good. No reservations were taken on weekends. Parking is kinda annoying around St. Matthews. Do your best to find nearby street parking. Patio is available and an upstairs party room. read more

First time in, will be back! Popped in on a Friday night at almost closing time. Service was fast and friendly. Food was hot and fresh. The guac was so good--chunky and fresh. We sat at the bar and the server was friendly and accommodating. The space is huge. Lots of table seating, igloos outside in the winter and a nice patio. read more

My friend and I came here for drinks after getting dinner elsewhere. Let me just say, that we should have come here for dinner too! The drinks are so good! I love their margaritas and the price is even better! On Fridays they have $4 too! I haven't had the food yet, but it smelled and looked amazing! Yes I was peeping other people food! I will definitely come back for more drinks and food! read more

I was excited to try this restaurant but ended up disappointed. The ambience and restaurant design is modern and sleek. Yet, the steak fajita lunch special that I got that included rice and beans was lacking in flavor: simply more seasoning would have really helped most likely. For the reasonable price, I was realistic enough not to expect high quality steak. To be fair, my dining companion really liked his grilled chicken quesadilla. However, there was an upcharge for rice AND beans whereas the menu said rice OR beans were included for the quesadilla. I have never seen this before for a Mexican restaurant, where rice and beans were not both included, and the server didn't inform us of this till we asked him about it at the end. It is also worth noting that I am used to when going out with my male companion in the Kentuckiana region having servers automatically assume he will pick up the check; I believe the check should be placed in the middle of the table, such an assumption should not be made. Our server did the same thing here, and when I told him to give me the check he expressed disbelief. I took the opportunity to slightly educate him, but I didn't appreciate this reaction. Anyway, all in all, I don't plan to return to this establishment for a variety of reasons. read more

What a LETDOWN!! This location opened recently and I was excited to try it as I have been a big fan of the other location. After seeing their social media posts about brunch I headed to this location to try it. First red flag: nobody in the establishment at 1:00pm on a Saturday had brunch. I wasn't sure if nobody was in the mood for breakfast, but my partner and I were the ONLY people who seemed to be interested in brunch. We order the Tres Leches Waffle, Breakfast Tacos, Mango Mimosas, and the Mexican Potatoes. Red Flag #2: My tres leches waffle comes out first, no other dishes, ahead of my partners tacos. No problem right? No. we sat for about 5-10 minutes, but the worst part is how much food was in the tacos. It looked as if one egg was used to fill all three tacos! As the red flags continued, my tres leches waffle was burnt and dry. This is supposed to be a moist dish with good flavor, none of which I experienced. After a few bites it felt like I was eating condensed milk rocks and raising my blood pressure. Additionally, the Mexican potatoes came out with the tacos, but were cold? I don't usually care if food is extremely hot, but these potatoes sat for no less than 30 minutes guaranteed. No steam after being bitten into and the sauce in the bottom was room temp at best. However the potatoes were the ONLY thing that tasted good from the brunch menu. So lesson learned. read more

Always a vibe when you come to limón y sal. We chose to come for a quick snack and ordered ; micheladas , taquitos, choriqueso & chips/salsa. The taquitos come with guacamole (just blended avocado it seemed ) so we upgraded to guacamole preparado and that was much better. The michelada was a "small" but much bigger than expected ! Service was wonderful so definitely coming back ! read more

Went on a Wednesday and had a reservation. Was seated promptly. Parking is all over the place in St Matt's. Service was fine until the end. Our waiter could not figure out how to split a check and figure out who got what. Had to request the help of someone else to assist which took 20+ minutes. Besides that everyone enjoyed their cocktails and food. Really enjoyed the Mexican rice bowl. read more

Limon Y Sal - Steak quesadilla - Mexican Near Me - Louisville, Kentucky

The renovated space looks great! They've really made the space their own after taking over from where the Raven used to be. I stopped in on a Monday evening before a rehearsal for a little snack and drink. I ultimately left feeling very...whelmed. It was all fine. I ordered off the happy hour menu because a gal loves a deal. I got the house margarita with mango flavor and chicken taquitos. The food and drink came out fairly quickly. I know taquitos are fried but they were literally dripping grease and oil. They tasted ok and got my tummy full. The margarita was great, it is hard to get that wrong. The thing that annoyed me though was, it seemed because I was dining alone, I was not a great concern for the rest of my visit. I was not checked on again for the rest of my time there, and I had to wave down a server (after several previous attempts) to get my bill so I could pay and leave. That bugs me to no end. I don't want or need to be approached constantly, but I was there for an hour and might have gotten a second drink or something but was not approached. I would go back again, and it seems it would be a good spot for a date or a group. But I guess I need to turn down my expectations when I dine alone (a not infrequent occurrence at different times). read more

It was a Saturday night and we decided to try this new location. The restaurant was very appealing, bright and and cheery. It was nicely decorated with a large bar in the middle. We were happy to be able to get seated without a wait. The bourbon margarita was delicious. I would highly recommend this. I ordered the taco salad. I actually would not recommend the taco salad. It was very bland. It was served on a large taco shell. It had the ground beef, lettuce, sour cream, guacamole, and a few tomatoes. Not even any cheese. There were some very large chunks mushed together of the ground beef that wasn't very appealing. The restaurant itself was nice so I do feel like I will be back to try a different menu item and definitely a delicious cocktail. read more

So happy to have another location in Louisville! The sweetcorn salad was good, but I would probably try something else next time. The margaritas were fantastic, I highly recommend a flight. We have been twice and there was no wait, so definitely a great dinner option. They have a large patio area as well. read more

Very cool ambience! However the chips, salsa, and queso were pretty bland/boring. Tacos were pretty good though. Service was weird- took forever to get to order and to get the check. Not really worth it IMO, there are better Mexican places for sure read more

Bland food, severely loud live music. We could not wait to leave. Food was such a dud that we left most of it behind. On the positive, the restaurant is pretty and our server was great. We. Will. Not. Be. Back. read more

Was really excited to check this place out when it opened but it was disappointing all around. We got seated immediately but then waited for 20 minutes for the waiter to take our drink orders. We chalked it up to new location and busy night but then the poor guy showed up openly bleeding from his hand. We hoped he would take care of himself but he insisted on taking our order. The food was just okay. The appetizer differed significantly from what was described: FRIJOLES CAMPESTRES - warm black bean and corn dip, with onions, tomatoes, cilantro, jalapeños, topped with queso fresco -- but what we got was refried beans and queso swirl. El Tarasco a couple of blocks away is a much better bet food-wise. read more

I've always liked their original location, so I was excited to check out this new spot. Unfortunately, it didn't quite live up to the original. Our server was friendly, but the food was pretty average and the drinks were just okay. We went around 4:30-5:00, and while it was starting to fill up, there were noticeably more staff than diners. The vibe felt a bit off, and the food didn't make up for it. read more

We went on a Wednesday night and the place was packed, and we still received excellent service. The food came out very quickly too. The menu is a nice variety and everything we ordered was delicious. There's also a really nice selection of drinks and NA drinks to choose too. read more

Great service, love the ambience and owner went to great lengths to provide an excellent experience. Food is some of the best Mexican I've had in Louisville too! read more

Amazing service and 100000% best food I've had here. This is a gem to visit and location is everything!

I am giving this three stars because I was celebrating a family birthday, so the third star is simply just for being with family. Beautiful transformation of the once dark Irish bar. Unfortunately, it was way too loud. They really need some sound absorbing panels on the walls/ceiling. Also, we sat inside; the garage door to the outside was open and it was 90 outside. Either close the door to the outside or turn up the AC. Lastly, the food was just as good as most Mexican restaurants in town. Nothing special. Service?? Not good. I can deal with the food, but service is key! Our server came by our table of 6 (who all arrived in stages) only 3 times. We had empty beverages and waited too long for the check. I would return if someone wanted to try it, but won't suggest it. ‍ read more

10/10 recommend this location and Leslie. Service was amazing and Leslie was on it!!!

Food was delish and the drinks as well. The service was awesome! Will def go back and definitely recommend.

This was the 3rd meal I had here and the food tastes cheap, greasy, like your average cheap Mexican restaurant. The vegan options were meh and the steak nachos I ordered this time were soggy, unappealing. When I asked the server for refried beans which were supposed to be on the meal he brought a side of them and charged me. No one else at our table was impressed with their food either. It's unfortunate because the ambience was great. We won't be back. read more

My husband and I had a subpar experience. The only good thing is that the place is beautifully decorated and aesthetically pleasing... That's it. Drinks were average. Food lacked seasoning which is concerning, because we're talking about Mexican food here. The place is extremely loud. I could barely hear our server who was not even 2 feet away from us as our order was being taken. Staff seemed lost and confused with no idea what they were doing. They were delivering us food that didn't even belong to us. Sensory overload and an expensive and bland meal to go with it!!! read more

Don't waste your time at this location! Beautiful restaurant but terrible management and food errors! No comparison to other location! Went for my birthday and boy was that a mistake! I would give 0 stars if possible. Food took forever and still came out cold and wrong. read more

Tried the new Limon y Sal on a Wednesday night. First off: they have entirely too many tables jammed into this space with horrendous acoustics, and it was absolutely packed. You are sitting elbow to elbow with other tables and everyone is yelling over each other. It was chaos to the max, and so unappealing. Service: our actual server was lovely. They have food runners do all of the food and drink deliveries but they don't seem to be at all familiar with what you ordered and what your entire table is supposed to have. My dining partner received his food rather quickly, about 10 min or so after ordering. Mine then took another 15 minutes to be delivered, he had already finished eating when I got my street tacos, and after all that wait, they were so disappointing. Flavorless, dry, very very stingy on the fillings and the tortillas are awful. They have no flavor and they seemed undercooked, kind of a gummy, raw texture. All in we were at $72 with tip for the most disappointing Mexican meal we've had in Louisville, and with splitting headaches to go with it from the total cacophony that is this restaurant. We will not go back and would not recommend. read more

Tried multiple margaritas and all were overly sweet with no tequila! Requested that my drink be shaken with salt on the rim and came out with neither. Ordered the quesadilla and it was just ground beef in a flour tortilla. No flavor. read more

The food is fine but I'm giving it a 1-star because the greedy ass owner charges a *2 dollar* flat fee for to-go orders. I've heard of small fees, like 0.50 cents or so, but even that is bad practice imo. But THIS... that's 15% of the cost of my order. read more

This place is absolutely terrible. I cannot stress enough how bad the food and the service was food had absolutely no flavor. It's like they didn't even try for a place that's called limón y sal it sure needs alot of limón y sal I walked out of there was such regret had known the meal was gonna go that way I would've gone to Bandito's or taco choza this is truly heartbreaking because he spent so much money making the raven looks so nice. The ambience is absolutely beautiful but the food and service sucks. read more

The restaurant is nice, and the food is good, sometimes. If you go on a busy night and get fajitas, be prepared for little to no seasoning. You may be surprised by low quality corn tortillas when expecting house made like they advertise. I'll be back, but not on a Friday night and I will definitely make sure they are serving homemade tortillas before request corn tortillas. read more

Worst fish taco I have ever eaten in the last 50 years!. And I've eaten many in several countries.

Food was real good and the service was on top of it and it's a fairly big place to see a lot of people
