    Avocado Breakfast Sandwich
    Bret H.

    Nice. Solid. Easy. I love how you can order breakfast all day long. Since I had lunch for breakfast, it only made sense that I compensate with breakfast for lunch. My colleague and I were seated without any wait, even though the place is very popular. Lots of windows contribute to the full diner experience. I went with the breakfast sandwich and was readily accommodated when I asked to swap the default scrambled eggs with over easy. The waitress gave us lots of napkins in anticipation of a gloriously messy lunch. I ran through those quickly and she gladly supplied us with more. It was a thoroughly enjoyable experience and will certainly be back soon. So many delicious options to choose from.

    The food was excellent and our server, Edgar was very attentive and friendly. The chicken and waffles were amazing. We will definitely be back soon.

    My food was okay overall, but the highlight for me was definitely the mimosas -- they were strong, so I'll give them credit for that! One downside was the wait time for alcoholic drinks. It took a while to get them, and because of the delay, I didn't even get a chance to order another mimosa before we were done. From what I observed, the restaurant seemed clean inside. The experience was decent, but I think improving the speed of drink service would make a big difference.

    Fried Chicken Benedict

    Had breakfast at Metro and its goodness. Service was excellent. Seated promptly, order taken and very courteous. I decided to try the Fried Chicken Benedict with crispy hashbrowns. Breakfast arrived quickly and it was very good. The chicken was hot and delicious and the hashbrowns were crispy. Only complaint was the egg was a bit overcooked. Not enough to ruin the meal but still overcooked. I will be back at Metro again for sure.

    Looked for brunch/breakfast that was open after 3 and this did it! Amazing food, soft eggs, tasty sausage, crispy hash browns, doughy pumpkin pancakes! Server April was kind and checked in on us! The floors could use a powerwash but overall great experience!

    Main dining

    Meat lovers scrambled eggs in a bowl over hashbrowns with hollandaise sauce was delicious. My wife had pancakes. They were fantastic. The coffee was hot. The server was wonderful and it looked like it was crowded as heck on Sunday morning Memorial Day weekend but service was quick and efficient, and I even brought some home to try later on in the day. Everything went well. The place gets five stars.

    In the area for a few days and had breakfast and lunch at the Metro Diner. Staff is very friendly and cheerful. For Breakfast I had the Biscuits and Sausage Gravy which is a meal in itself. It also came with eggs and hash browns. All were excellent. For Dinner I had the Loaded Burger Bowl which was also excellent. Hope to return when I am in the area again.

    Steak & Scramble Bowl

    Old me would never order a steak at a diner but just TRUST me on this ya'll! When the waiter recommended the steak scramble bowl at breakfast, I was like ummm sure if that's your favorite thing I kind of have to try it and I am SO glad I did! The steak bites were some of the best I've ever had. I don't know what they're doing over there but the meat was tender, juicy, and packed with flavor! I picked up a delicious umami flavor, soy sauce maybe? And that paired perfectly with the creamy hollandaise sauce poured over top. I would definitely get that again. My husband liked his breakfast plate complete with a stack of pancakes. We'll definitely be back.

    When will the lemon-blueberry pancakes be back? I have never been a big fan of pancakes but the first time I had those it was love at first sight!! I could never get enough of those and when they went away I was totally heartbroken!!

    Our seasonal Lemon Blueberry pancakes, waffles, and bread pudding will most likely be back later this summer (around July) :) Happy to hear you enjoyed them!

    LongHorn Steakhouse in Pineville has some of the standard qualities you'd expect from the chain…read more(decor and standard menu), but my recent visit left me a bit underwhelmed. Even knowing that the restaurant doesn't take reservations, they do offer to call ahead to be placed on the waitlist in advance. The wait time was much longer than expected. Even though the restaurant was busy, our estimated wait time of 45 mins stretched to close to an hour. They told us at one point that our table was ready, but they were not going to seat us yet because they "didn't want to overwhelm the server". Meanwhile, we all sat or stood uncomfortably in the waiting area for an additional 10-15 minutes. I would have been much happier seated at the table waiting with the knowledge that the server may be a bit getting to us. Once seated, the service *still* moved at a slow pace, which added to the frustration of the wait time just to be seated. I ordered the Parmesan Crusted Chicken, and while the flavor was fine, the portion was a disappointing collection of pieces rather than a full cut of chicken breast. It wasn't bad - just not as satisfying or well‑rounded as I've had at other LongHorn locations. There's potential here, but between the long wait, slow service, and a mediocre entrée, it ended up being an average visit rather than a great one.

    We stopped in for dinner on a Thursday evening, about an hour and fifteen minutes before closing…read more The restaurant had several open tables, but right at the entrance it was clear something was off. A couple ahead of us was waiting, another had just added their name to the list, and when we reached the host stand, the host appeared completely overwhelmed. He told us there would be a 25+ minute wait, but didn't take our name--just gave us a look like he didn't want to seat anyone else for the night. To his credit, another employee--clearly juggling multiple roles between serving and bussing--stepped in and got things moving. He checked tables, managed the flow, and ultimately seated the waiting parties, including us. He was polite, professional, and exactly what you expect from someone in hospitality. Once seated, the contrast between staff members became even more obvious. The host wasn't just overwhelmed--his attitude toward the work was the bigger issue. Throughout the evening, we watched him complain openly to coworkers about being asked to bus tables or help with simple tasks. At one point, he spent more time explaining why he shouldn't grab a stack of cups than it would have taken to just do it. Other employees were visibly frustrated, rolling their eyes or simply working around him. We also observed him on multiple occasions heading back into the kitchen empty-handed while there were still plenty of dirty tables on the floor--at least twice that we personally saw. To be fair, he did bus several tables, but he also skipped others that clearly needed attention, creating more work for the rest of the staff. It gave the impression that he was avoiding parts of the job rather than tackling what needed to be done. Later, another employee asked him to assist with clearing several tables. Instead of helping, he began complaining loudly across the dining room. The employee simply said, "Don't worry about it, I'll take care of it," and handled the situation efficiently and professionally. Shortly after, the host retreated to the kitchen where he had a loud meltdown--audible from the dining room--right at closing time. We later learned he was stressed about a homework assignment due that day, which seemed to explain the behavior, but from a guest perspective, it was a poor representation of the restaurant at the front door. That said, every other staff member we encountered was outstanding. Friendly, attentive, and professional across the board. Our server in particular was excellent--engaged, efficient, and on point the entire meal. As for the food, both meals were solid. I ordered a steak medium rare, and while it came out slightly overcooked--closer to medium--it was still a good cut and enjoyable. It was a bit heavy on the seasoning, but easily adjusted by scraping some off. The broccoli was cooked perfectly. My colleague ordered a steak topped with coconut shrimp and was very happy with his meal. Overall, this could have been a great dining experience. The kitchen did a solid job, and the service staff (aside from one) were exactly what you hope for. Unfortunately, the first impression--and much of the atmosphere--was overshadowed by a host who was clearly having a rough night and not handling it well. This feels like a training or management issue more than anything else. With the right guidance, this location has all the pieces in place to deliver a consistently excellent experience.

It was cold outside, but it was even colder inside the restaurant, to the point where it felt like sitting in a freezer. It honestly made it hard to relax and enjoy the meal. Food-wise, we ordered a variety of items. Some people got pita dishes, others ordered pasta and pizza. One person really liked the eggplant spaghetti, while another didn't care for the sauce, so opinions were mixed. A few people did enjoy their pizzas. I ordered a Greek salad with blackened chicken. I'd rate it about a 5 out of 10, very mid. The salad included cranberries, which was an interesting addition. Not bad, just unexpected. The blackened chicken didn't seem well-seasoned, so it wasn't very impressive overall. On a positive note, the service was good. Our server was friendly and attentive, and I didn't have any issues there. Parking was also plentiful and easy, which is always a plus. Overall, the biggest issue for me was how cold the restaurant was. It was so uncomfortable that it really affected my experience. We might go back again as a group at some point, but I wouldn't go back on my own, and definitely not unless it's warmer inside.
