Lima Grill earns strong praise for flavour and portions, with reviewers calling the chicken nasi goreng and meat dishes delicious and homemade-tasting. A stretch of complaints about 45-60 minute waits and cold or undercooked food has emerged recently, though most customers still rate the experience highly and say they would return.

Most visits deliver solid food at fair prices: noodles, soups, and specialty dishes like tom yum pan mee draw repeat visitors. Lunch crowds pile up around noon, and portions can disappoint, but staff keep orders moving and the coffee holds its own.

Good food and atmosphere draw repeat visits, but operational strain shows during crowded periods. Kitchen struggles with speed when busy; stock runs out by mid-morning and tables stay dirty when staff are stretched. A worthwhile stop for traditional kopitiam fare if you visit early and have patience.
