    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.

    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???

    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.

    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.

No pancakes, (unsfuffed) French toast, bagels with lox. Chairs are old and extremely uncomfortable. Place is loud even if a few people are there. It's literally hell. Horrible service. Waiter brought me 2/3 of a cup of warm coffee and asked if I wanted milk or cream and sugar instead of bringing them over. Had to wait five minutes for my eerily specific request for a certain number of creams and Splenda. No spoon or other way to mix the cream and sugar. I couldn't find a single thing on the menu that seemed even remotely close to palatable, so I ordered an English muffin, thinking I'd be safe. Wrong. It was doughy and soaked with butter. Should I have told them to hold the butter because I was a jelly guy? Who knows. I've never felt more like leaving a zero dollar tip than I did at Greenhouse Gastropub. Skip it.

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.
