Lime Bar Kitchen Irving

I've decided that Lime Bar is filling in as my new "Pho District" now that I'm rarely in Fort Worth. It's kinda got that Vietnamese Thai fusion vibe going on. It's newly opened and right off Royal near MacArthur. I had the tofu spring rolls which I really enjoyed and the curry pho with chicken, which had a lot of cilantro. I wasn't used to that in curry, but I'm normally a cilantro fan so it was fine. The serving on that curry pho is ginormous so unless you're pregnant with twins or Dirk Nowitzki's uncle, you could easily split it two ways or three ways or have couple meals using your leftovers. Another idea is to get their CUP of pho as opposed to a bowl. It looks like the perfect size for just one (or me at least). They have a spring roll sampler (shrimp, chicken and some other meat or fish I don't eat) and also avocado & mango rolls. I was very pleased with my tofu spring rolls, which are served with a thick peanut sauce. My beverage of choice was the jasmine tea. I like to get a side of honey with it. They also serve green tea. The reason this could be my pho district "fill in" is because I usually go between the curry pho or vermicelli (which they both serve) and avocado spring rolls but their avocado rolls are very different at these restaurants. Both have the hot tea offerings as well, but Lime Bar has a variety of flavored cold teas/lemonade so that's exciting. Since it was a group of us cold natured office ladies and the weather was so nice, we decided to dine outside on the patio. It was a beautiful day out. Other menu items that caught my eye: vermicelli, chicken pho, fried rice, salmon, fried noodles, zucchini noodles. They also have pad thai and a tapas section. Prices are decent. The service was great. Everyone was very attentive. I might even be interested in checking out their HH one day which is 3-7p. Lime Bar & Kitchen is worth a visit if you live, work or visit Irving.
