I had the shrimp and grits! It was amazing! Can't wait to come back and try something different. Our cook was Brandon... hats off to Brandon. Thanks to our fabulous server... Lyric. Thank you Lyric for being so helpful and very attentive to what we needed. read more

Finally tried this place after seeing it so busy all the time. While busy, we were seated immediately and didn't wait long for our server. She did a great job tending to us, as well. The portions are large! We ordered the club sandwich and the burger bowl - both were very good. Make sure to come hungry! read more

Metro Diner - Metro Club - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Evansville, Indiana

Very friendly and attentive wait staff. I ordered the French toast croissant meal with scrambled eggs, bacon grits, a biscuit and I can't remember what else I ordered. There was so many things as part of this platter. I'll post pictures. Decorated with lots of local decor and a sign that says "Metro dining serving locals who serve" - It truly feels like an old-time diner, but with a modern feel. Food review: Im Checking out what appears to be a very local favorite. The dining room is packed but only a five or 10 minute wait at this diner. they turn the tables rather quickly. Very friendly and attentive wait staff. I ordered the French toast croissant meal with scrambled eggs, bacon grits, a biscuit and I can't remember what else I ordered. There was so many things as part of this platter. I'll post pictures. Very tasty hot served you could tell a lot of it is scratch made, and made with love.

My husband and I went on a Saturday morning and had about a 20 minute wait which wasn't bad considering they were packed. The facilities were new and clean. Staff were knowledgeable and friendly. I got the fried chicken eggs Benedict with home fries with cheese, onions and peppers. Chicken tenders were tender and had a light breading, biscuits were soft and fluffy and the poached eggs were cooked perfectly. My husband got the black and blue burger with seasoned fries. They used 100% angus beef which gave it a really good flavor. Husband said it was wonderful. I would highly recommend this dinner and look forward to returning to try some of their dinner options. read more

Good food, great service and diner experience was really cool. Food comes out fast, hot and delicious. Will be back.

Music is too loud to enjoy conversation. Feel servings are large and need to be shared. Staff friendly. read more

Four of us had lunch at Metro Diner on a Friday afternoon. This was the first time any of us had been here.... Def won't be the last!!! Every employee we encountered was upbeat, and seemed happy to help. That in itself was quite refreshing!!! The atmosphere was quite loud, as the dining room was full. It is a bit difficult to have conversation. We noticed families, business suit people, couples and friend groups. The menu has a HUGE selection, noted burgers, salads, chicken etc, but we all opted for breakfast. Who doesn't love breakfast for lunch? All 4 of us rated our meals 9 out of ten!!!! Cinnamon Roll pancakes.... Omg so yummy!!!!! If our first visit is an indication of future visits we will be back!!!! read more

We had a wonderful waitress that helped us with ordering. I was trying to find gluten free items when she excitedly told me they had a gluten free menu! I ended up getting a triple decker BLT and fries. Soooo delicious! And my husband said his burger was cooked to perfection. Also found out there is a Metro Diner location in St Augustine, Florida where we will be spending time at in January. We will definitely be visiting them! By the way, the place was really cute, a true diner feeling. read more

We've been here twice now. Once for breakfast and once for lunch. We were impressed both times. My cheese grits at breakfast were perfect. I had the chicken and waffles for lunch and substituted chicken tenders for the half chicken I think the chicken tenders were some of the best I've ever had. And the strawberry butter with the waffles was superb. We had good service both times and while it has been crowded, we haven't had to wait long. We will make this a regular spot! read more

My first visit here with a group of friends was excellent! Our waitress was on top of her game. She kept our drinks filled and was very friendly and polite. I had the Shepherds Pie. It was served hot and was absolutely delicious! The menu was large and there are other dishes I will try in the future when I return. The restaurant was clean and well staffed and all the servers were attentive to anyone who needed something. This restaurant was full of customers, so the word is out. Try them soon, I think you'll be happy that you did. I have already been recommending this place to my friends. read more

Once again Metro Diner delivers with an amazing dual. Charleston, shrimp and grits along with shrimp corn chowder is some of the best I have ever had. Our waitress was fast and always checking up on us. It's still a diner but the seating area is roomy. read more

We had breakfast here yesterday (Friday). This restaurant has only been open a couple weeks. When we walked in, my first impression was how nice and bright it was. The tables aren't all packed in, and everyone seemed happy to be there. We were greeted quickly and showed to our booth. While our server was getting our drinks the owner came by our table to welcome us. We placed our orders and they were brought out in a reasonable time. One of my friends likes honey with her coffee. There are few restaurants who could give her that, but they did without hesitation. I ordered the two eggs with hashbrowns (extra crispy) and Canadian bacon (which I don't usually see on a menu) and I substituted one pancake for the bread selection. The eggs were scrambled perfect! The hashbrowns were crispy, and I really liked the Canadian bacon, which I've not eaten in years. The pancake was also good. Another friend commented that she liked the feel and weight of the mugs. Coffee was also good and the owner had mentioned they fresh grind it. All four of us were happy with our meals. The service was pretty much over the top. We'll be going back again for sure. Our server Teresa was outstanding! read more

Normally I'd give this place a good review but today our family walked out because of an error on the front staff and bad customer service experience. We went in, got in the list. And then was told we were not on the list and would have to wait additional time. read more

We went for breakfast over spring break. Food was good, portions were plenty, and service was excellent! We'll be back!

This place is way better than the former place that housed Biscuit Belly whom thought they knew what breakfast was about. Today we grabbed breakfast here, spoke to Chris who's the manager here who was so friendly made his rounds to check on the diners. That is always a great touch and I know I appreciate the hospitality and the "good morning". Our server Elsie was a definite joy to be with and gave great recommendations on personal favorites and was always keeping the hot coffee flowing. So, if you haven't tried this place yet. WHAT R YOU WAITING FOR!?!? read more

Food is great and reasonably priced! Nice clean environment. Everyone working there is a delight. Definitely check it out.

The service was exceptional. Our waitress was attentive and kind. The food was on point. From the fish/chips to the onion rings to the cheese curds. Metro is a new spot for sure! read more

Good food. Caring staff. Music is a bit loud as well as the place I almost always got people in it.

I had a wonderful experience dining at Metro Diner. The hostess was friendly and very engaging. The server was very attentive and quickly placed my order. I ordered breakfast and the food was prepared as requested by me. I honestly was surprised at the size of the bacon. They make every effort to ensure that you return for a cordial greeting, delicious food and fair prices. My server, Kadence, greeted me with a warm smile and ensured that my order was prepared according to my request. He was very pleasant and attentive during my visit. I will return many times for exceptional food, excellent service, and fair prices. The restaurant has a very welcoming feel to it. I always visit restrooms in restaurants and found the restroom to be exceptionally clean. I had a great experience at Metro Diner, and I am sure you will also and will eat numerous times at Metro Dinner. read more

I had lunch at the brand new Metro Diner today for their soft opening/stress test. Everything was fantastic. It was a friends and family event offering a free meal, so they were very busy. Everything ran like a well-oiled machine and we didn't have a single problem! Our server, Cadence was fantastic. He was friendly, knowledgeable about the menu, and checked in on us regularly. Several managers also came by to check on us. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. Amazingly, Chris Wyatt, the managing partner, said they've only had a week to train. You'd never know it from the way it ran today. I had the shrimp and grits. It was perfection! The grits were just a little looser than I prefer them, but that's just a matter of personal preference. The shrimp was cooked perfectly - juicy and tender and well-seasoned. The dish as a whole was a delicious bowl of comfort - very flavorful, just the right temperature, and a generous portion. My friend had the steak tips (sorry I didn't get a photo). I tried a bite, and they were also really good. Metro Diner officially opens on Monday Oct. 27. You should go! read more

I had the San Francisco eggs Benedict with home fries. Everything was tasty and well presented. The server was pleasant and attentive. Over all it was a very good breakfast. read more

Came here excited for something new. Party of 4. One of our party ordered the chicken Benedict that arrived wrong due to the wrong entree being ordered. Server was great but we all finished eating and the chicken Benedict was still not at the table. There was only 3-4 servers working the floor. After 30 minutes, we asked for the manager. Management was very apologetic and tired to make things right, but we were frustrated at that point. The food was served hot and was very appetizing, but they need to fix the breakdown in the kitchen. There was no effort to rush the incorrect meal. read more

The Metro Diner is a revelation in Evansville. The food is consistently as good as the customer service (which is outstanding.) The management is exceptional, and has combined servers with genuine good attitudes and expert cooks into a smartly run organization. It's new, it's cozy and it's highly recommended. read more

Destiny was amazing! Great service and she would be an amazing manager! She was attentive but didn't hover! Restaurant is just opening but clean and well organized. Owners were great...our talking to every table. Food was amazing. Great portions. Recommend the pumpkin pancakes! read more
