I don’t normally write reviews but I do have to admit that I felt very welcomed when I went through those doors. The food is one of the best Italian I’ve tried and I’ve had my fair share. The staff and the owner especially made me feel like I was a long lost friend. Highly recommend checking it out
My husband took me to lunch here 2 weeks ago for my birthday as I love Italian food. I especially love pasta and have eaten in Italy several times. We have visited Limone before and the restaurant does not disappoint. The food was wonderful, generous portions. My pasta was cooked to perfection. Beautifully on the Al dente side. My starter Aranchino was stunning. My husband thoroughly enjoyed his steak. Service was excellent and staff were warm and friendly. Compliments to the kitchen - A little taste of Italy in Herts.
Dined on Saturday for lunch (my second visit here) and it is just the loveliest restaurant. Decor is stunning, food is great and service friendly. Also spoke to the owner who told us all about transforming the restaurant from how it looked before becoming Limone. I will be back as a regular and will be back for Elvis night!
The restaurant is beautifully decorated and ornate dishes line the tables, the portion sizes were generous. We went in for the lunchtime menu, the pizza sandwiches were tasty but I was a bit overwhelmed but the amount of pickled gherkins inside which dominated all other flavours the portion sizes were very generous. I asked for a side dish of calamari and for charged a main sized portion without being told, so what should have been a cheap and cheerful lunch ended up a tad expensive. Overall it was a pleasant experience, the staff were attentive and polite, it was an ok and the food was nice but I wasn't blown away.
True Italian/Sicilian vibe, not to talk about the food. DELICIOUS. Service was great and you can feel all the Italian love. Arancini are a must to try!
