Del Mar, North County: Mexican cuisine is known for its diverse flavors and attractive colors. If you happen to be in Del Mar, North County, you won’t have to drive miles to experience authentic Mexican food after Alan Efter opened Salt + Lime in August.
Salt + Lime began its operations through a food truck, but its good fortunes enabled Efter to open a dining establishment in the heart of Del Mar. The restaurant is an affirmation of Mexico’s unique food and culture and a place where everyone can enjoy and relax.

Some of its best dishes include Ceviche a la Mexicana, Sinaloa Style Tostada, Queso Fundido, Baja Fish Tacos, and so much more. You can also order fresh drinks and unique cocktails prepared with natural ingredients.
