    Now don't give me wrong. This place is decently good for airport food considering it's the only place in the entire airport to eat. You don't have much opinion. So the food is decently good to my opinion. The real question that comes to mine is it worth the price? Simple answer. No, no service was very fast and polite. There were a lot of chairs and seating so that wasn't a problem, but these darn prices need to be changed. But after all, this is an airport in airport to cost a fortune when coming to get food.

    Can't sit at the bar?!?

    Weak, but expensive coffee. Price to be expected given airport location, but watery coffee should be improved.

The decor reminded us of a cabin from the 90s. The menu had American favorites. Our server, Cidney was amazing! Our drinks were full the entire meal. We ordered the breaded mushrooms with a cup of ranch added on. They came out fast. They were super crispy, tasty, and hot. Both the horseradish/mustard sauce and ranch were great! Both of us decided to order the catch of the day, which was mahi mahi. It wasn't necessarily blackened but it had an amazing grilled flavor. Our sides were the house salad with ranch and a loaded baked potato. The house salad was a generous size and tasted excellent. The potato was fresh and loaded up. We were very happy with our entire experience. We hope to come back and try more of their options.

We got there before 5:30 on a Saturday and walked right in and were seated immediately. When we walked out the restaurant was full with a wait so great timing. Our server Morgan was excellent, attentive and helpful. We hadn't been in a while due to there being so many other options around but we were very pleased.

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. French toast is very unique very fluffy just like a croissant. The grits were amazing eggs made to perfection. Bacon was nice and thick and smoky no complaints here I strongly suggest you check out the metro diner in Evansville. Chris the manager go and ask how everything was I told him great on everything he told me it was a very fun job.

We ordered the queso fries which came with two cups of ranch. (Very appreciated as ranch lovers.) The fries were extremely fresh and tasted great! Our entrees were bourbon glazed salmon and shrimp and grilled pork chops - both were tasty! The southern green beans were good but had a somewhat sweet taste, which I was not expecting. The other sides we tried were the Caesar and house side salads and a loaded baked potato, also very tasty! We took home the fried apple pie dessert and that did not disappoint either. The menu has American favorites that we will definitely be back to try!

The greeter seated us and the server arrived quickly with water, taking our drink order. We were taking our time and the server was very patient, just the type to make you feel like family.
