Local Lime patio on Kavanaugh Boulevard in the Heights

About

Local Lime anchors the social end of the Kavanaugh Boulevard corridor — a Mexican kitchen with a margarita program that draws its own following, a covered patio that's one of the Heights' most reliably animated spots on warm evenings, and a menu that takes Tex-Mex seriously enough to offer both familiar comfort items and more interesting preparations. The tacos are consistently the right call. Happy hour runs weekdays until 6 PM and the bar gets crowded with neighbors who walked over. Sunday brunch with bottomless mimosas is a Heights ritual at this point.
