Lime Tree Southeast Asian Kitchen

Had lunch last weekend and this restaurant was a treat.So many interesting sounding dishes I can't wait to go back to try more things., offerings from several Southeastern countries.We started with the Roti Pratha which arrived steaming hot with a wonderful curry dipping sauce. That alone was worth the visit.We also had baked salmon that was cooked in a banana leaf. The salmon was coated with delicious spices. The tofu dish was also delicious and the Jazmin rice was perfectly cooked.The service was excellent and the ingredients were fresh and delicious.

I've had this place bookmarked for a while and finally had the chance to visit today. We arrived at 2 PM on a Saturday, and it was completely empty--understandable for a late lunch hour. The server was very friendly and let us choose any table we wanted. The interior was clean and simple.My husband was craving curry, so I let him pick the dishes. The food arrived fairly quickly. * Chicken Curry: This was the first to arrive, but unfortunately, it was a miss for me. The chicken was quite dry, and I'd rate it 2/5. * Lime Tree Ginger Rice: I was expecting a small bowl of rice but was surprised when a soup-sized bowl arrived. The rice was the highlight of the meal for me. 4/5 stars. * Laksa: The presentation was appealing, especially with the large prawns on top. While the prawns were good, the broth was underwhelming. This dish earns 3/5 stars. * Chicken Satay: This came toward the end of the meal, and we'd honestly forgotten we ordered it. The satay had a strong sweet note that felt off--not quite teriyaki-sweet, but still unusual. I'd give it 3/5 stars.Overall, it was an okay meal. Both servers were friendly and courteous, which we appreciated. I'm glad we tried it, but it's a 3/5 experience for me.

Was passing through inner Richmond near Golden Gate Park while visiting SFO and pretty randomly chose to eat lunch here. I was pleasantly surprised. Although this is a small and not very fancy restaurant, it has a good atmosphere and a very kind and attendant wait staff. There is a broad menu of South Asian dishes with a Malaysian/Singapore tilt. I had rice noodle dish which was aromatically and deliciously flavored.This is not the place for a romantic lunch or ambiance, but the meal was superb. Street parking was easily available midday.

Lime Tree is my favorite restaurant if I'm craving Asian flavor. The best hospitality and even tastier food. I love the silver noodles with chicken. The roti is amazing!!!!! Can't go wrong with their salmon! The string beans and okra are so delicious as well! A bit spicy but it has a good kick. If you're into that. If I could rate the service and ownership of Lime Tree, it's 110%! Aung was super vigilant especially since I drink fountains of water whenever I dine out. The ambiance is relaxing and well-lit for any occasion. We've celebrated a party of 16 here and I've dined in with my family and friends separately as well. BEST experience EVER!!!

This is second time that my mom and I visited this restaurant. We went to Irving location but they didn't have Gado-Gado. So we must come here to try. We were really happy with this dish. Laksa is one of our favorite too. I loved the broth which warmed me up in the cold weather well. Ang was our waiter. He was so friendly and nice. My chicken wings were so so for me. Nothing special for that. I will not order that again but I really want to try their crab for the next time. I also loved their ginger rice too.

Lime Tree in the Inner Richmond serves up mouthwatering Indonesian dishes like Roti Pratha, Pepe's Salmon, awesome Indonesian-style Chicken Wings, Beef Rendang, Nasi Goreng with chicken, and Gado-Gado. While the food is top-notch, it's the exceptional service from owner Ming that truly elevates the experience. The warm, comfortable ambience, with its lime green accents and Southeast Asian touches, makes for a welcoming dining spot. A must-visit for both great food and outstanding hospitality.

This place is a good casual spot for generous southeast Asian dishes. The standout dish was definitely the okra. For reference, I tried another okra dish elsewhere that wasn't nearly cooked nearly as well!Everything was awesome including the very friendly server and cook. The interior is pretty unassuming, super causal, regardless I would definitely go back! Highly recommend.

Delicious authentic dishes. Whenever I'm feeling a craving for Malaysian/Singaporean dishes this spot does the job! My favorite is the Char Kway Teow and the roti pratha. Service is speedy and I like to take it to go as the restaurant is quite small and below ground level.

This place is great for groups and families. I loved all the appetizers, especially the roti with curry sauce and corn fritters!Super friendly staff and they have another location on Clement that I will definitely be trying soon.

Rice is perfectly cooked, good amount of chicken flavor and texture wise. Solid ginger scallion sauce. Red sauce is a sweet and spicy type of flavor, offering a well balanced side of dips. Chicken was poached pretty well, white pieces were still decently moist.Had to try the laksa because I couldn't find another restaurant in SF that made it. Apparently it's not supposedly made with vermicelli but I wouldn't know if it was authentic or not. However this still hits the spot tho! Nice soft noodles along with a creamy coconut flavor. Bean sprouts add a hint of freshness. Both dishes were delicious for a quick snack or something for the road. Something bout the nostalgia from getting it from my Chinese restaurants hit different, I could be bias but like I said, not bad and I wouldn't mind coming back, just not my first choice for hainan chicken.Ps. Don't go to rooster n rice lol, Thai kmg just don't hit like hainan chicken.
