    Crab cakes
    Minju K.

    This place is the best food I had in Gainesville. The portions are huge and simply delicious! The staff is the sweetest and nicest. They take your order over the phone and you pick up your food. We are coming back for more food!!! You have to take my word for it and check this place out!

    Baked lasagna with green beans and corn

    Wow! What an incredible meal! We chose the baked lasagna with two sides, mac n cheese and collard greens, plus the cornbread. Everything was delicious and the food was ready right on time for pickup.

    Be ready to be amazed. I went here with my son who has been many times. It's sort of a place you have to know about. Each day the menu is on instagram and you call Chef on the phone, place your order and he tells you when to drive up. When you do, you call him again and he comes out to your car with your dinner. The food is amazing!!

    Crab cakes so good I ate them in the car because I could not wait.

    Only in town for one night on way to Disney cruise. Not big on fast food but didn't want sit down…read morerestaurant for family of five. Found this and glad I did! Got the family chicken and waffles and it was ON POINT! Hot, fresh, and affordable!

    Last minute breakfast decision and wow I am so pleased that we decided on the Metro Diner!…read more As soon as we pulled up I had a good feeling about this place and I'll be honest coming from New York I miss my diners! Needless to say this the Metro diner truly surpassed my expectations. We walked in and were greeted immediately and asked if we would like to sit outside which is a covered area or indoors. We chose inside given it being a hot humid day and wanting that extra comfort. The vibe felt amazing with all the smiles and yes even though busy all the wait staff was hopping doing their business! We were seated and told about the specials and given the menu. I was unsure what I wanted because I think I could have eaten a little bit of everything! I did ask the waitress a couple of suggestions and one of them was the pancakes I had chosen. They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner all day! How cool is that and rare. They had a chicken and waffle special that was actually half a chicken ( pieces ) fried with Belgium waffles, powdered sugar and sweet strawberry butter served with their signature sweet and spicy sauce. I'll be honest when I had seen someone else get their plate I was surprised. It looked absolutely incredible and well tremendous. On their specials they had banana pudding pancakes or waffles, this also sounded amazing. It had walnuts, butter and powdered sugar and definitely banana. I am most certainly glad that I chose this as it was incredibly. Super fluffy, flavorful and the banana was not overwhelming there was a perfect balance of flavors. There was a sauce on them that I assume was the banana pudding. It was light and just enough to not overpower the pancake itself. We had also ordered croissant French toast and my son absolutely loved them. They were crispy on the outside yet fluffy and flavorful with a fantastic texture topped with some powdered sugar. Some ordered hash browns, these were also delicious and homemade with a great texture and the portion like all the other dishes pretty large. We had all tried the biscuits and gravy. These too were delicious with such a nice balance of flavors. The biscuits indeed homemade. We were all very pleased with everything. Some eggs over easy and bacon cooked perfectly. The coffee honestly the best I've had in years. I'm a coffee drinker and I cannot figure this coffee was outstanding! I had four cups and wish for more ha ha. Best of all I must compliment the service. I have not been to a restaurant of any sort with such attentive service, quality service as we received here in years. The waitress kept refilling my coffee and water, brought my son more soda ( even a container to take his home ) asked everyone if they needed anything at appropriate times and was extremely kind and considerate. I will be back and I highly recommend the Metro Diner for a great meal, quality service and relaxed environment that you will enjoy.
