Stopped by for breakfast today. We were told to sit anywhere. It took 10 minutes just to get our coffee orders. I ordered the short stack of pancakes. My husband got eggs. His breakfast was ok. Not great, just ok. My short stack of pancakes took 30 minutes. When the food runner brought them they were cold and hard. It was obvious that they had been sitting in there waiting to be picked up for a while. Apparently our waitress was more interested in sitting in someone’s booth than doing her job. I had to get someone else to take back the pancakes. Food was poor as well as waitress’s attitude. Won’t be returning.

I have been wanting to try this place because I love diners. It did NOT disappoint! I had a super great burger, and my companion had a slab of ribs, and let me tell you, the meat was falling off the bone!

Had the Protein breakfast and a pancake. Was really good, definitely worth a stop in for breakfast. I have not tried anything off the lunch menu yet.

My husband and I came into Metro today after a long 4 hr Dr. Appointment test and was unable to eat until after test. Place was pretty packed when we arrived ,lunch time. Sat right down in a booth, no wait. Server came over pretty quick and was super nice and helpful. I ordered Biscuits and gravy. This is the only restaurant that I like the gravy. My husband and got a ham and cheese Omelet and had asked for it to be pressed
When the food came to our table it wasn't quite as my husband liked. Our server Emily who was absolutely great asked us what could she do to make it how he likes. She said explain to me so I can tell the cook exactly how you like it
So we told her ok maybe tell them old fashioned instead of pressed. We waited not even 5.mins and the Manger brought the food over and asked us is this the way you like ? It was exactly how my husband wanted it..
The food was excellent..servers was prompt and friendly, very helpful
A manager that takes the time
to come to bring you your food after something went wrong and asks if this is ok and how you like it? This says to me he cares for the food that goes out, his employees and the customer's
Not many managers do that
And it says alot about a manager who does
So a big thank you to our server Emily. And the manager DJ
You both made going to eat out a nice experience which doesn't happen anymore

Stopped by Metro Diner today and the chicken and waffles were amazing—so flavorful and cooked perfectly! Ryan took great care of us, very attentive and friendly. Highly recommend both the dish and the service!

We ordered the cheeseburger bowl and other than their waffles, we enjoyed this the most of anything else we've had here. I did have to bring half of it home - its a huge portion (for me anyways - hubby polished his off).
Chris was our waiter and he was attentive, but not overly so. Definitely an asset to Metro!

So this was stop #3 on my get-to-know Gainesville Breakfast spots tour, but it's going to be hard to try anywhere else after eating at Metro Diner. As soon as I walked in I was seated at a nice two-top and soon after that was greeted by Sam who was as friendly as she could be and one of the best waitstaff I've had the pleasure of interacting with. She got my order quickly, I had the Bissell Breakfast, which I highly, highly recommend, and I had coffee before I knew it which never got less than half full before she was topping me off. Breakfast came out within 8 - 10 minutes of ordering, if that, and everything was cooked perfectly. Eggs just like I requested, home fries nice and crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside, sausage perfectly cooked, biscuit that was like Grandma used to make, and two sizable pancakes also perfectly cooked. Coffee just right as well and nice and hot!!! I
I'll be back to Metro often, that I can promise, as the service was second-to-none, everyone I interacted with wished me a nice day, and all of the staff really seem to enjoy working there which is a sign, in my opinion, of a well run restaurant. Can't wait to go back!
