I really didn't like this! Unlike most, I thought it sounded really good - but it was really weird tasting. We did like the bites that had just a little watermelon in them, though, so I think if you reduce the amount it tastes OK. I don't think I'll make it again.

The first time I ate this, I was shocked and surprised....happily so! When I made it, watermelon was in season locally so it turned out even better. The mixture of flavors and textures is awesome.

Fantastic!!! I would be sure to soak the onion at least 15 minutes. Also, you want to be sure that all the ingredients (watermelon) ect. is chilled before mixing together. It becomes mushy and watery after just half an hour or so.

I thought this was very good. I prepped all the ingredients and home and transported them in seperate containers to mix just before serving. I used a sweet onion and I think next time I'll just use 1 T. olive oil.

Very good, but you need to "tweak" the proportions according to your taste. It gets mushy fast, so go easy on the lime and serve with lime wedges and insist your guests apply their own! Onion is strong, so do rinse and pat dry first. Works great with sweets as well, so this salad good use for Walla Walla's.

Nothing special, but edible. I was looking for a recipe similar to what is sold at Zaytinya in Washington, DC and this look right, but the taste wasn't as fresh....maybe the proportion of watermelon should be much higher - adding only about 1/2 or less of the other ingredients (except the lime).

A fantastic summer salad (and a great way to use up the enormous watermelon that I bought on sale!). I omitted the olives because my husband wasn't a fan and added a *little* extra feta. I also took another reviewers advice and cut the mint in half and subbed the other half with fresh basil. What a fantastic side dish to a grilled main course on a beautiful summer night!

This salad was really quite good. I made it for a large gathering and everyone was intrigued by it. The flavours of the sweet, salty and mint work really well together for a nicely unique salad. I'll make it again.

This was a nice mix of flavors and went great with a seafood lasagne I made. Next time I will try draining the watermelon in a colander before adding to the bowl. After the salty items (feta and olives) it drew lots of liquid from the melon. I'd like to try and eliminate some of that liquid before adding the olive oil, mint, and additional lime. Maybe even tossing with a light amount of before draining salt might help...

I would actually rate this unique recipe a 4 1/2 stars. You have to try it to believe it, but the combination of all the flavors is what makes this so incredible. I used vadalida onion and kalamata olives instead of black olives just because that's what we like.

Made exactly as directed and found it to be a bit bland so we added some ground pepper and a diced and seeded jalpeno.Much improved.

This was an easy and awesome salad. Everyone loved it and asked for the recipe. I let the onions sit in the lime juice for 20 minutes and they were perfect.

I made this recipe for a cook out, it was a great, the contrast between the salty and the sweet was a real hit. The only thing I have to say is that it does not keep well so try to make it right before you serve.

I thought I would really like it, since my parents used to eat watermelon with salt sprinkled on it. But it was just okay.
