Upscale Johnson County Mexican-style restaurant is opening soon. Peek inside

The inspiration behind a new Johnson County restaurant’s name sits on a warm plate, ready to be squeezed over a helping of brie and shrimp quesadillas. Every entrée at Local Lime is served with a fresh lime wedge — one of a few aspects that give the Arkansas-based brand recognizability. Though each of its four restaurants has its own flair, its modern, trendy style is replicated through its Southwestern tiles and geometric bar design. If customers see the “Mi Casa Es Su Casa” sign inside and smell the queso flameado sizzling, they’re likely in the right place. Local Lime will open its Leawood restaurant soon, marking the company’s entrance into the Kansas City market. Two of its other spots are in its home state, while another has landed in Tennessee. It’s been serving tacos and tequila for about 15 years, altogether. At a friends and family night in the KC metro Tuesday, employees showed select customers what’s to come once it officially opens on Monday. The spot will be at 5005 W. 117th St. in Leawood’s Town Center Plaza, overtaking the former Bravo! Italian Kitchen space. Servers on Tuesday practiced recommending items on the menu, which holds a few dozen
