Lime Bar & Restaurant (Canary Wharf)

• Let's start with some positives
• The restaurant is spacious with good lighting
• A thursday night the restaurant was extremely empty there was only one party there
• This should have set the alarm bells ringing and was a clear sign of what was to come
• Even though the restaurant is called line bar there wasn't any mocktails on the menu
• The sizzling lamb chops had a nice unique taste in a barbecue like sauce with a few other spices
• I ordered the lamb shank which was a house special the meat was prepared the day before
• When it arrives on the table I was impressed with the size however the excitement was very short lived
• Let's cut to the chase it was awful like really really bad it had no taste whatsoever and was just basically lamb shank mixed with ketchup and tomatoes that's about it
• It was very bland there was almost no flavour what so ever I can't believe that someone can call themselves a chef when they made this completely tasteless meal
• The service was also average
• Aaloo tikki from this restaurant is quite good
• I like spicy food and it is giving authentic Indian taste
• If you want to spend nice quite time with your hubby without much noise than this is the place to be
• I was a little anxious about eating at this combination as my view is that pub food is generally shrink wrap food
• Even when I insisted that only Having one house wine by the glass was limiting by today's standards
• The house white was more palatable ( Pinot Grigio he said but not sure about that
• Their large glasses are obscenely large
• Garlic chicken Bhuna was saucy but I knew would be over powering with garlic
• Nice to see Indian restaurants trying to be a little different with being too radical
• Having previously tried Aniseed and feeling let down I found out there was another curry place right near me
• White rice is white rice
• Still trying to find a real great curry (likely going to have to go to Bricklane is what people tell me) but I would visit again
