Our group had a delicious breakfast on a snowy morning. Our server was fantastic and got all our orders with suggestions perfectly. The food was delicious. Cooked perfectly and so good. Biggest issue was too much food but that's what to go boxes are made for. A nice local place feel and very friendly atmosphere. Definitely would eat here again.

Fast great service. Wonderful atmosphere, and amazing food for reasonable prices. Our waitress was outstanding.

Jamaican me crazy hot coffee. Smooth!!

Well we said we would return. And here we are. The chicken and waffles were flavorful with that grandma's seasoning type vibe. I got my shrimp and grits again. Still very yummy with plenty of big shrimp. We had a nice table where we can see the cooks do their thing. (They had grandma hidden, LOL) Please Metro stay this way. Again from my photo as for Amanda.as a server she is a rockstar.

Forgot to take a picture beforehand of my omelette.

It was fast and pleasant. We were passing thru and were starving. We did not wait long at all. Customer service was great and tentative. Food was excellent. Husband got Belgian waffles and it was fluffy and light.. perfect! I got an omelette, the eggs were so fluffy and it was stuffed!

Lovely inside.

Lovely place, clean, service was very friendly. Thanks Zoey! The food left a lot to be desired. The pancakes were hard to cut. The home fries were over cooked squares of potatoes. The eggs were ok and I didn't care for their coffee. Some stuff I know is my taste but I think everything was overcooked and not hot. No rye bread???

Three Egg Breakfast

Really good for an all day breakfast diner. Best bacon I've ever had that isn't my mom's. Potatoes are slightly overseasoned but not so much that I won't gobble down the hash browns. Service was attentive. Like most diners at dinner, was quiet. I only wish the toast came buttered

Chicken and Waffles.

See all

I don't see huevos rancheros on the menu. Will it ever be back?

They are back

Do they serve mimosas?

No alcohol unfortunately, but that would be great if they did.

Friendly service, plenty of vegetarian and vegan options. Reasonable prices. They said the menu is…read moreabout to change, so I hope it will still have vegetarian options.

I come here all the time, especially after shifts at my restaurant. The service is usually great;…read morebartenders are nice and wait times are no problem. Last night, my co-workers and I came into Homegrown for a drink after working at our own restaurant all day (we understand the stress that comes with serving). My friend ordered 2 drinks, to which the blond male bartender said he needs 2 ID's to serve her 2 drinks. She thought he was joking and laughed, but my friend and I both immediately noticed the way he was speaking to her and it was not friendly at all. He kept that negativity through all 3 interactions and never apologized to my friend. About an hour later though,the bartender apologized to the man we were with, who was not part of that conversation and didn't fix any issue. The drink limit is fine, but Homegrown serves us multiple drinks to an order every time we go in so we asked for explanation. There would have been no issue if he had explained why, as we know holidays especially are tough, but he at first just said "he's not playing those games". I asked again, and he told us that he doesn't want to play "drinking roulette" or something along those lines. I said I don't know what that means. That's when he finally explained that all house drinks were doubles, which we didn't know, but he was treating us as if we were trying to play him. It was just so unnecessarily rude and weird when we didn't come at him any type of way. We come in at least twice a week, every week. I love this place and have never had any bad experience. I've seen this bartender before and idk if he was having a bad night, but he certainly put in work to make our night worse. It was just incredibly weird and awkward. To make matters worse, he was only rude to me and my 2 female friends. As I mentioned earlier, there was also 1 man there. Of course, he talked to the man (who had nothing to do with it) and apologized for his actions. You should have apologized to the people you were mean to, not the man. It was a pretty unfortunate experience. Of course ill be back, but hopefully with a different bartender.

From the moment we walked in, the place just felt right. Warm, welcoming, and unpretentious. Antonio, our server, was outstanding. Attentive, personable, and completely dialed in without ever being overbearing. He made the whole experience feel easy. The food was exceptional across the board. The chilaquiles were packed with flavor and clearly made fresh. Johnny's French toast was next level, rich, perfectly cooked, and easily one of the best I've had. The loaded pancakes were exactly what you want in a proper brunch, generous, indulgent, and done right. What really took it over the top was the unexpected moment. Completely unprompted, Antonio and Chef Francisco surprised me with a birthday celebration, fresh churros with a candle. It was thoughtful, personal, and genuine. You don't see that kind of care very often anymore. And then the kicker. The entire meal for the table came out to under $70. For the quality of food, portion size, and level of service, that kind of value is rare. Huge credit to Chef Francisco in the kitchen and Antonio on the floor. This is a place that understands both hospitality and execution. If you're anywhere near Newark or visiting UD, it's worth the short drive. No question we'll be back.

The food is always top notch and the service friendly! I've…read moregone a few times for breakfast and a few times for dinner. They never disappoint!
