Unfortunately, my second visit after work left me feeling let down. I ordered the tomato soup which came without any bread, and had to remind the kitchen to bring some. I also ordered the halloumi salad which was a bit of a letdown. While there were plenty of greens and some nice touches like oranges and olives, there were only three small pieces of halloumi which were cold, despite being promised that it would be fresh off the grill. It was a shame, as my first experience at Lime and Thyme was so positive. The kitchen does have the ability to produce delicious grilled meats, such as the souvlaki.
