Limon Grille

Limon Grille brings Turkish and Mediterranean cooking to a tiny corner of Bar Harbor's main drag. The owners work the room themselves, chatting with regulars and first-timers alike. It's small, casual, and the food skews fresh and flavorful, though portions and execution can be uneven.

• Red lentil soup is the standout, warm and full of flavor.
• Chicken wings are impossibly tender.
• One of the cheaper meals on main street Bar Harbor.
• Owners run a genuinely friendly, chatty room.

Start with the red lentil soup and hummus. Get the Greek salad with its spring mix, tomato, cucumber, and feta, or order a rice bowl with beef and the crunchy vegetables and house sauces. The thin, crispy fries are worth a side order. Skip the signature sandwiches.

Tiny and cozy with just four tables inside, plus bar seating and a few outdoor spots. It's unpretentious and busy enough that it feels lived-in, not quiet.

Turkish flavors show up in the chicken wings (tender as can be) and the red lentil soup, which guests keep bringing up. The Greek salad arrives with proper feta and a good olive oil vinegar dressing. Rice bowls with beef, hummus, and marinated carrot-yogurt sides are solid. Skip the sandwiches, though. Gluten-free options exist too.

Guests rave about the soup and the freshness of the ingredients. One recent visitor called the red lentil soup 'fantastic' and noted the owners are 'friendly and fun to chat with.' The beef rice bowl with house sauces gets consistent praise, though a few have found the sandwiches dry and oversalted.
