Bissell Breakfast, sausage instead of bacon. Out of frame... the pancakes!
Tom C.

Been a while since last review and Metro still nails it. Have tried many things beyond breakfast at this point and all those options are great too. Burgers, fried chicken, fish and chips, club sandwich, meatloaf , roast turkey and beyond all hit the mark. Thankful to have a location close by.

Small shrimp and grits
Laurie M.

So glad I took my daughter up on the invite for lunch here. Place was packed but the wait was not bad at all. Our server was great, very attentive and told us all about the specials. My daughter got one of the specials the Banana Pudding Pancakes. She said they were delicious. Her roommate got eggs biscuit and hashbrowns and said they were also great. I had the Shrimp and Grits. They were some of the best shrimp and grits I have ever had. I really wanted to try to chicken and waffles but it looked like such a large serving that I will have to save that for another time. We shared the mimosa flight. It was very good too. The mimosas on the flight were orange, pineapple, strawberry lemonade, and peach mango.

Metro diner is an experience. There are several locations and this one is just tucked away in a strip mall in Huntersville. So not quite as exciting as the one downtown, but you're still gonna get good service and good diner food. It's nothing over-the-top, but it does hit the spot. This location is a bit tight inside, but there is plenty of seating. They also have a very nice outside patio. So will you be blown away? No, but you'll come away with a full belly and satisfied.

Eggs, Side & Toast
Tina S.

My husband and I went here after my procedure and I was starving. It was a Wednesday early afternoon. We were seated quickly. Staff were very accommodating. I ordered pancakes eggs cheese grits and English muffin. My husband had hueros eggs and 2 teas. Food was good but grits were watery. We will be back to try other items. They have a large menu.

Fish sandwich
Marnell J.

Metro is truly a good place where there's something for everyone; anytime of the day. You can breakfast all day along with dinner. Today we had the fish sandwich with coleslaw and the half of fried chicken with Mac and cheese and coleslaw. Please forgive me, as I forgot to take a picture of my chicken. The smell of the food driving home, I forgot to take a picture after feeding mom. The service is always great. Staff is accommodating and pleasant when we dine in or take out. The ambiance is a rustic type venue. Its a great family friendly restaurant.

The food is always good here and the service by Brooks was outstanding. I highly recommend the chicken and waffles. We sat outside. I wish the screens were down and the screen door was still in place because the flies were everywhere.

Shrimp and grits
Danielle W.

I got sat at a table right away. My server Celeste was attentive even though it was quite busy. I ordered shrimp and grits with toast and a mimosa. Everything was delicious.

Spicy Honey Chicken Biscuit and Fresh fruit
Michaela H.

We got seated right away at 10:30 on a Sunday morning. Amazing service- our waitress was super kind and attentive. I had the spicy honey chicken biscuit with a side of fresh fruit. It was the perfect portion size if you didn't want to take anything home. The chicken was cooked well. The ambience was your typical breakfast diner- nothing too fancy. Overall, it was a great place to

I tend to go for the Huevos Rancheros, the breakfast tacos, which are absolutely delicious and definitely the kind of breakfast that makes you need a nap afterwards. I usually pair them with the fruit or the home fries, which are delicious as well. My boyfriend ordered the Ranchero Scrambler and really enjoyed it and said he would definitely order it again. I've also tried the breakfast burrito, which is MASSIVE and honestly great to share with someone! We typically sit outside and love the view of the main street. You can also sit closer to the entrance area, which is pretty, and sometimes they even have a live band or singer out there which really adds to the atmosphere. Will be back for more yummy breakfast tacos!

We appreciate their creative menu, with unique options that you can't find anywhere else. We usually go before 9am on a Saturday, when they aren't as busy. And our usual server, Makel, is always on top of everything, even if he is the only one serving tables at that time. We rotate between our favorites - 1. I like their quiches, breakfast enchiladas, and the two-egg plate. 2. My husband likes their Ranchero Scramble, breakfast enchiladas, and breakfast burrito. I'm usually disappointed with how restaurants cook scrambled eggs with cheese, but the chef at Neighborhood Cafe knows how to do it right. The eggs are never overcooked, and the cheese is always melted throughout. He sets the standard for how scrambled eggs should be made! I'll often rotate sides, but lately I've been having a half avocado with the eggs. The avocado is ALWAYS fresh and never brown. Other times, I'll get a salad or fruit. I appreciate that they have so many side options. If they have a quiche that I like (no asiago or goat cheese for me), I'll have the quiche entree. They serve that dish with two sides, and I always get the salad and fruit. Their dressings are homemade, and are so good! My husband's current favorite is the Ranchero Scramble. He adds their homemade red chili sauce (the one they serve on top of the breakfast burrito), and we both use it. It's amazing on the scrambled eggs, too! Their portions are large, their coffee is good and strong, and service is always so fast. We love Neighborhood Cafe!

Then we pretty much finished our meals by the time she checked back. My friend can't eat meat and was neglected to be told that the side dish had bacon in it. When we explained to our server that she couldn't have it, a replacement was not offered.. so she was unable to eat half her dish and left hungry. My burger was undercooked and the aïoli on it was more like a thick chunky sauce than a spread. Pretty gross. I will also add that this was not a single occurrence. My friend went here on another night a few weeks ago and said the service was just as bad...... Would not recommend this place at all... Not sure why it's always so busy. Hard Pass.

My husband and I first visited Easy Like Sunday about two years ago and immediately fell in love…read morewith this little restaurant. It's small, intimate, stylish and inviting. It's the kind of place that feels notably special, distinguished and high end without ever feeling stuffy. Everyone is warm and professional, and the food is absolutely worth every penny. During our first visit, I took a chance and ordered the grits. I normally avoid restaurant grits because they're almost always bland, flavorless and gelatinous. But the grits at Easy Like Sunday were completely different in the best way. Creamy with the slightest grainy texture and so perfectly seasoned that you don't need to add butter, salt, pepper or anything else. I had been daydreaming about those grits for two years. We finally made it back this past Friday and arrived when the doors opened at 9:00am. We were seated immediately. I ordered the Little Bit of Everything with eggs, bacon, those unforgettable grits and a thick, fluffy, delicious buttermilk pancake. That first spoonful of grits tasted exactly the way I remembered, maybe even better. My eyes actually welled up with tears. I know that sounds extreme but I'm not exaggerating. After waiting two years to taste them again, they felt familiar and comforting, like coming home. Our waitress, Diana, made the morning even more special. She was warm, welcoming and accommodating. When I told her I could nearly cry over those grits, she didn't make me feel silly or dramatic. She agreed saying,"Oh, I know! We have the best grits!" She said she completely understood why that first bite made me feel emotional. Being served by Diana felt like being taken care of by an old friend. We had never met her before, yet she treated us as though she had known us for years. Easy Like Sunday is a hidden little treasure tucked away across the street from Park Road Shopping Center. It's the kind of place you take someone special for a first date, an anniversary, a milestone, a birthday or simply a morning you want to remember. The atmosphere is cozy and polished, the food is wonderful, and Diana is an absolute gem. We cannot wait to return!

Our server was great, but unfortunately, the food was below average and didn't quite live up to the…read moreexpectations. Ube has such a naturally rich, nutty, and creamy flavor that I expected the pancake to have plenty of that character. Instead, it was dry, lacked moisture and flavor, and honestly tasted more like a regular pancake with ube coloring than an actual ube pancake. We also ordered the French toast and a cup of coffee, and the total came out to around $47. I'm glad we gave it a try, but overall, the meal was pretty underwhelming. The service was the highlight, but the food was just so-so.

With the Hwy 150 road construction, we have avoided Mooresville traffic but found ourselves in the area so gave it a try. The original was always one of our favorites. Looking at the menu, very little change. Menu looks almost the same which was good because they still have one of my wife's go to favorites, the Cranberry Pecan Chicken Salad with Fruit. Needless to say, that is what she ordered and she loved it. I ordered the Pork Tenderloin Sandwich with a side of fries. I do not specifically remember this on the old menu but I may be wrong. In any case, it was excellent. Nice and thick and juicy with a great taste and texture. Not overcooked, tender and great texture. With all of the recalls, I told them to hold the lettuce, but lettuce adds very little to the Sandwich. Nice and clean and well organized. Walked in and was promptly seated and drink order taken followed shortly thereafter with ordering out entrees. Biggest thing that has changed is at the end of the meal. Used to be that you had to walk to the front to the cashier to pay. Now they bring a card reader to your table which is much more convenient. Will make a point of going again in the near future.
