“I came to Metro Diner this morning off the humbug. I was starving & was craving some chicken & waffles from somewhere close in the area. Surprisingly the chicken was very seasoned and crispy. The waffles were also very tasty and soft. The strawberry butter mixed with their signature hot sauce was also pretty good. Alicia was my server. She was such a doll :) Her knowledge of the menu is impeccable and she took very good care of me. If you are in the Newark area and would like some tasty and quick diner food, go there & ask for Alicia <3 Thanks Alicia will be there again real soon !”

If my husband and I are together we sit and have wine while we wait. They are all very friendly! If we get take out, we always get extra so we can have leftovers, which are always delicious. We reheat the pizza in the toaster oven, it’s amazing. We also love the desserts there! It’s just a great spot and we love it! I’ve never once been disappointed with any of their service or food.”

Thank you. Now let's get to the food. I had the Chicken Picatta. I had to take the picture because at the first bite I new it was about to be destroyed. I left nothing on the plate. The Impossible Sloppy for those who need a vegan option also got a thumbs up. The food comes out hot hot! No one complained! I will be back the next time I am in Delaware.”

Firebirds Wood Fired Grill 1225 Churchmans Rd, Newark Steak House • $$

“We decided to go to dinner at Firebirds. I had been once and was not impressed; however my husband had never been there. I have to say the food was good. Cooked exactly the way we wanted. The only draw back we had is the portions of food that you receive for the price that you pay. We felt like we were robbed. We don’t over eat so when I say we had small portions, we really had small portions. The dessert was even small portions for the price that you’re required to pay. The five very thin layers of lemon cake were good but the slice was very thin for $10.25. Out bill was $76.30 for two and I would have no problem if we had an appetizer and alcoholic drinks but there was none of that because we don’t drink. We each had a soda because the lemonade was too tart. The server was very pleasant and on time with everything. We tipped her well as we should have. Not sure I can return there. A little more light would be appreciated if I did return.”

“When I first came in I was warmly greeted by two great staff members. One or both may have been the owner. I was given the rundown of a pretty great menu with two really great sounding avenues: breakfast meat options with home fries and eggs, or something like a double sausage on a roll for lunch. Boom. That's what I got. Really nice diced onions and green peppers which were sauteed then placed on the bottom of the bun first, then I had them add spicy mustard and the sausage links went on top of it all. I loved this technical approach because it makes the eating experience not-messy and very nice. We've all had hot dogs where the toppings are stacked on top and fall off with every bite. That's not how this was. Well considered! The sausage was really flavorful and wasn't dry or too salty. there was a great snap to the casing of the sausage and the ends/tips of the sausage were satisfyingly crunchy from a great cook. The whole experience was a good one and I absolutely will be going back. I think the price, portion, and quality was excellent, too, for less than $10 -- you can't find that these days. The only improvment: might be to grill/toast the inside of the bun a little more, but that's extremely nitpicky and not required. I can't wait to do their breakfast-y platters next. If they're scrapple and bacon is the same quality as the sausage, this place is going to be a no-brainer when I come to Newark, Delaware once or twice a month to go to Days of Knights Games or Captain Blue Hen Comics. I actually live in Maryland and the drive is about 25 or 30 minutes, but I'm telling you, it's worth it! Main Street, and Helen's, rules. 5/5”

The next day I went back about 30 minutes before closing to grab a pizza to go. They were already mopping the floors and getting ready to close, but no one acted bothered that I came in. They were just as friendly as the day before, and the pizza was just as good.

It’s clear they care about both their food and their customers. I’ll definitely be coming back and would recommend this place to anyone looking for great Italian pizza.”

“Hot, Fresh, Quality Ingredients, Excellent Spice Blends I don't like winter (okay, where's he going with this?), so I need to light a fire in the fireplace as well as inside myself. Solution? Tikka Masala delivered via Doordash brings us delicious flavourful Indian food that I enjoy medium or spicy (there's that fire!). Both the Chicken Chettinadu and Tikka both are whole meat chunks of chicken, amen, with comforting seasoning to boot. A little of each as pictured and I have plenty for a second meal. Basmati rice, naan and the circle on the plate is complete. Update: Masala Dosa is heavenly! Perfect dish. A blessing to have fantastic Indian food at our beckoning call. Nicely done & thank you!”

We ordered a few boba teas and we asked for no ice, but they still came with ice. Being the winter we wanted not to have our drink super cold.

I would recommend creating a loyalty program being on campus can help with repeat customers and increase their visits”

Thank you. Now let's get to the food. I had the Chicken Picatta. I had to take the picture because at the first bite I new it was about to be destroyed. I left nothing on the plate.

Firebirds Wood Fired Grill 1225 Churchmans Rd, Newark Steak House • $$

“We decided to go to dinner at Firebirds. I had been once and was not impressed; however my husband had never been there. I have to say the food was good. Cooked exactly the way we wanted. The only draw back we had is the portions of food that you receive for the price that you pay. We felt like we were robbed. We don’t over eat so when I say we had small portions, we really had small portions. The dessert was even small portions for the price that you’re required to pay. The five very thin layers of lemon cake were good but the slice was very thin for $10.25. Out bill was $76.30 for two and I would have no problem if we had an appetizer and alcoholic drinks but there was none of that because we don’t drink. We each had a soda because the lemonade was too tart. The server was very pleasant and on time with everything. We tipped her well as we should have. Not sure I can return there. A little more light would be appreciated if I did return.”

“I stopped by here on a road trip to NY, and I must say I am incredibly impressed! The price of the food is significantly cheaper than where I live, plus there’s NO TAX! A 16 piece chicken only here costs only $33, while in VA it costs $38. Not only is it much cheaper, it also tastes so much better! We got our 16 piece box with no wings since my younger sister is extremely picky with her food, so we would save her the drums and thighs while the rest of us dig in on the breasts. The breasts were juicy and flavorful, no hint of saltiness at all! Perfectly seasoned and crispy breading.Even after bringing home the leftover chicken and reheating it in the toaster oven, the juiciness still maintains and the taste is still immaculate. Overall I would recommend going here when on a long road trip.”

Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen 1325 Churchmans Rd, Newark Comfort Food • $

“Last night, my wife and I tried Cheddar’s for the first time. We both ordered steaks with sides—I had the ribeye and my wife had the sirloin. Both steaks were cooked perfectly and were very tasty. My ribeye had a bit more fat than I prefer, but overall the food was good. The service and atmosphere were excellent, and we will definitely be going back.
Follow-up: I decided to add to my review after dining here at least five times now. Unfortunately, my wife and I experienced the same issue for the second time when we entered the restaurant. There was no one available to greet us, and we stood there awkwardly waiting for someone to acknowledge us and show us to a table. When an employee finally arrived, she completely ignored us and instead went to assist a woman who had entered after we did. She then disappeared into the kitchen to check on the woman’s takeout order. Throughout all of this, we were never acknowledged or even told that someone would be with us shortly. The experience was just as disappointing when we left. Two employees were standing at the register near the exit, yet neither one said anything to us. At most restaurants, you would at least expect a simple “Goodnight” or “Thank you for coming.”
Everything else about our visit was fine, but these are two areas that really need attention. A simple greeting when customers arrive and a courteous acknowledgment when they leave can make a big difference in the overall dining experience—and, in my opinion, would go a long way toward earning a better rating.”

“The store was packed. The wait wasn't too long. The Chicken Strips were delicious 😋 with the sauce. They seem to be smaller than when the stores first opened. 😕
The fries weren't fresh, even though we ordered in and waited.
Everything was still good.”

First Watch 74 Geoffrey Dr, Newark Breakfast • $

“We’re frequent customers at the Montvale, New Jersey, store, but this was our first visit to the Christiana (Delaware) First Watch. Spectacular food and spectacular hospitality from our server, Vanessa! I always get the ‘Traditional’ breakfast and a blueberry pancake. So yummy! My wife loved her ‘Farmhouse Skillet Scramble’! Hope we see you and your friends again, Vanessa! - Jim & Laurel Lambert”

CAVA 2150 Fashion Center Blvd, Newark Mediterranean • $

“I would like to recognize three staff members who went above and beyond this morning: Hanaan, Aryn, and Joella. I had a lunch meeting scheduled for 12:00 p.m. for 15 people, but due to an internet issue at my location, I was unable to place my order online. When I arrived, Aryn immediately asked Hanaan and Joella to assist before the lunch rush began. Before I knew it, they had my entire order prepared, bagged, and ready to go in no time. Their teamwork, efficiency, and willingness to help made a potentially stressful situation completely seamless. They displayed outstanding customer service and professionalism, and I truly appreciate their efforts. Thank you again, Hanaan, Aryn, and Joella, for going above and beyond!”

The Border Cafe 483 Stanton Christiana Rd, Newark Mexican • $

“We ordered borders Via DoorDash. The first order was incorrect. I alerted DoorDash and Borders had the corrected order to my door in about 15 minutes. There was also additional food in there. I’m not sure if that was by mistake or intentional. However, the promptness and the quick reaction to correcting this was amazing. Thank you for making this right.”

“Excellent service, food, experience. I was recently there with a group of nine, including an infant and two toddlers. The servers were extremely friendly and helpful. We all loved the robots! The food, though, was the star. We ordered many dishes to share, and every one was terrific. Highly recommend!”

Just Doner 618 Newark Shopping Center, Newark Kebab • $

“Wow!!! The best shawarma I've had in Delaware... Beko (the owner) was very accommodating and really nice. I missed this kind of food since I moved to America... and finally, I have a place to go to when I crave Turkish food.”

Berrysweet cafe 1007 S College Ave, Newark Cafe • $

“I initially just got the cafe bonbon -- it was good, but the coffee could be stronger (just my personal preference). I saw the pastries and decided to try two, they were so nice they also added a Turkish delight for me to try -- everything was yummy!

P.s. Bring cash for tip, since there was no option for me to add a tip when paying with card.”

Cousin's Burger 215 East Main Street, Newark Fast Food • $

“Limited menu here, but a DEFINITE SOLID BURGER! Sometimes you don't need 10 million options if you do something well! This was another great find while exploring downtown Newark DE (cute little area right around university) Relaxed atmosphere where you order at kiosk and cook brought burgers over. My bf loved the smash burger so much he ordered a 2nd! I got the spicy burger and fries and DID NOT disappoint! With multiple locations(West Chester, Philly and more) find one near you and go indulge!!💖🍔”
