    Dried beans and small WP sandwich.

    I have eaten at David's 100's of times and never had a bad meal until last night. We go to the drive through and order a large WP sandwich plate, pork no slaw on garlic with beans as both sides and a regular WP small pork sandwich with slaw on garlic with beans as the side. As we sit there waiting I make a comment to my boyfriend that the wait is definitely unusual. When we get home and get everything out to eat I am stunned by the beans! They are dried out and looked like they had been in the bottom of the pan all day. I take a first bite of the small sandwich and spit it out!! The meat, slaw and bread had a terrible taste as did the beans. Hope this isn't going to be the norm from now on.

    Breakfast scrambler with canyon cubes, sausage, gravy and cheese.

    Really good food. We tried several meats and sides. The sauces are also very good. The spicy has a nice amount of heat. And great service!

    The pork sandwich on garlic toast is really good. Will be back to try other stuff on the menu. Wish a small side of fries wasn't $3.

    Afternoon is a perfect breakfast spot for groups! I took my friends from out of town and they loved…read moreit! The coffee is always amazing; rich in favor with the perfect amount of oat milk. I had a lavender oat milk latte and this might be one of the best coffees in Gainesville. Their pastries are also not to be missed the guava pastry is a favorite of ours. Pros: flaky delicate pastry crust. Excellence balance of cheese to jam. Filling. Would order again! Cons: sticky fingers Cinnamon rolls The frosting is very thick and delightful. It was originally brought out cold and then they warmed it up upon request. The layers were sweet but not overly so. I got the French omelet and the egg was perfectly fluffy. My friends got the whipped feta toast, the veggie breakfast burrito and the breakfast bowl.

I entered the restaurant at 9:15 am with my guest and were seated promptly. Our server proceeded with our drink order in which we requested a vanilla and brown sugar iced latte and lemonade. My vanilla and brown sugar latte was made well and was quite refreshing. The lemonade was a bit sweet but overall a good beverage. However, as our experience continued it became a bit of a let down. We ordered the Dutch baby with seasonal fruit, the big break, a cinnamon roll, and the afternoon hash. From time of placing the order to receiving our food was an overall total of 45 minutes. A bit of a long wait for breakfast/brunch style items. The cinnamon roll was not done well whatsoever, the roll itself was over kneaded which created a thick and heavy dough. Not the fluffy type of cinnamon roll you would expect. When our food did come out the Dutch baby was partly burnt, it did not taste as such but it was a bit flat in regard to taste. The potatoes in the hash and the big break were burnt. I wouldn't consider it crispy because they were so overcooked I could barely get my fork to go through. The taste of the hollandaise did redeem the dish a tad, however for $90 including tip it was not the dining experience I would come back to.

Our server was very nice and she answered all of our questions, of which we had many! We were able to sit outside on a nice spring morning before it got too hot. It wasn't the greatest since it's near the main road but they do have a lot of greenery up so you can't see it but you do hear it. I would love to have another one of those sandwiches again!

    Last minute breakfast decision and wow I am so pleased that we decided on the Metro Diner!…read more As soon as we pulled up I had a good feeling about this place and I'll be honest coming from New York I miss my diners! Needless to say this the Metro diner truly surpassed my expectations. We walked in and were greeted immediately and asked if we would like to sit outside which is a covered area or indoors. We chose inside given it being a hot humid day and wanting that extra comfort. The vibe felt amazing with all the smiles and yes even though busy all the wait staff was hopping doing their business! We were seated and told about the specials and given the menu. I was unsure what I wanted because I think I could have eaten a little bit of everything! I did ask the waitress a couple of suggestions and one of them was the pancakes I had chosen. They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner all day! How cool is that and rare. They had a chicken and waffle special that was actually half a chicken ( pieces ) fried with Belgium waffles, powdered sugar and sweet strawberry butter served with their signature sweet and spicy sauce. I'll be honest when I had seen someone else get their plate I was surprised. It looked absolutely incredible and well tremendous. On their specials they had banana pudding pancakes or waffles, this also sounded amazing. It had walnuts, butter and powdered sugar and definitely banana. I am most certainly glad that I chose this as it was incredibly. Super fluffy, flavorful and the banana was not overwhelming there was a perfect balance of flavors. There was a sauce on them that I assume was the banana pudding. It was light and just enough to not overpower the pancake itself. We had also ordered croissant French toast and my son absolutely loved them. They were crispy on the outside yet fluffy and flavorful with a fantastic texture topped with some powdered sugar. Some ordered hash browns, these were also delicious and homemade with a great texture and the portion like all the other dishes pretty large. We had all tried the biscuits and gravy. These too were delicious with such a nice balance of flavors. The biscuits indeed homemade. We were all very pleased with everything. Some eggs over easy and bacon cooked perfectly. The coffee honestly the best I've had in years. I'm a coffee drinker and I cannot figure this coffee was outstanding! I had four cups and wish for more ha ha. Best of all I must compliment the service. I have not been to a restaurant of any sort with such attentive service, quality service as we received here in years. The waitress kept refilling my coffee and water, brought my son more soda ( even a container to take his home ) asked everyone if they needed anything at appropriate times and was extremely kind and considerate. I will be back and I highly recommend the Metro Diner for a great meal, quality service and relaxed environment that you will enjoy.
