    Visited on a Saturday morning and only had to wait a few minutes for our party of two. The waitstaff was very friendly and the menu seemed to have a ton of amazing options. I opted into getting the BELT which ended up being incredibly filling and delicious. My mom wound up ordering the chicken and waffles and was not disappointed! We were able to get our food pretty quickly and weren’t there for too long. Overall we had a great experience and I can’t wait to visit again!

    A decent American brunch place near Thompson library. I used to have before or after my medical appointments. Their dishes always have a great flavor with tasty sauces. Highly recommend their juicy and tasty chicken fingers.

    The food was really good, except I thought the sausage patty was rather bland-definitely need more spices in it. Service was quick and great!

    Chicken chorizo skillet, avocado toast, and cinnamon french toast... We ordered all three and conquered them all. The skillet had so much flavor that I didn't need to add anything... Not even hot sauce, and I put that on everything! I wanted to try something savory and something sweet. They had some interesting combination menu items but I like mine separate. I was worried we wouldn't be able to finish it all but this food is the kind that tastes so good, you keep eating without your body giving you the "I'm full" message. If you're ever in Columbus, this is a must go to spot and especially if you like breakfast foods.

    I didn’t have a hangover, but they did make me an incredible breakfast! This is a classic breakfast joint! Not to be missed!

  • 4/5 Brandee Y. 1 year ago on Google
    This place is so unique and interesting with lots of fresh takes on breakfast that are very modern and on theme for what you would expect from a brunch place next to a college. Hangover Easy is so imaginative with their food pairings and everything came out really well. This LGBTQ+ friendly brunch spot really is a big hit ❤️ (the pride themed mimosas are too die for)

    I literally don’t know why I keep coming. I placed an online order. As soon as I got my food I was smelling my food but I figured it was fresh. I come home and open the bag, all of the sauce from chicken tenders is all in my bag. All over my food carts. Just everywhere. And this is not their first time rushing and sloppily putting food together. This is not it!

    We enjoyed our lunch here. Some of us got breakfast dishes and some lunch ‐ all were very good. And our server was helpful, attentive and friendly.

    This place was recommended to me by more than one person to check out when I was visiting Columbus, and I'm so glad they did. Absolutely bustling with energy and activity. When I walk through the door I was able to snag the last seat at the counter. I ordered the skillet and it came out super fast. Everything was cooked to perfection and it was absolutely wonderful. Although there was a lot of action and movement and crowds, the staff wove their way expertly through the tables and always with a smile on their faces. I will absolutely come back here next time. I'm in Columbus and I recommend you do too!!

    Pretty unique menu with a variety of really solid entree options. Hangover easy is a poppin little right in the heart of OSU. We went for brunch and it was quite enjoyable. Service was really good and the food came out fast. I had the smothered and covered which was pretty good.

    If you're looking for casual eats but decent food within Columbus, this is the place to be. Parking is available offstreet or parking garage behind the block. It can get crowded with OSU students since it is within the campus proximity. They have a lot of breakfast options and cocktail drinks.

    Great food, great service. We went on a Saturday and we were immediately sat at a table. Our server was quick, friendly and knowledgeable. We had a Bofa special, chicken and waffles, sloppy seconds and the oatmeal pancakes. Everything was hot, fresh and tasty. We would definitely go again.

    Hangover Easy was a fun environment. You can definitely tell it's near a college campus, and that college age patrons are their primary demographic. We didn't feel out of place though. We sat at the bar to eat because they were on about a 30 minute wait for a table. The restaurant is bigger than what meets the eye. Seems like you can go there multiple times and have a different experience based on where you sit, yet with the same overarching vibe. Our server/bartender was really nice, helpful, and timely. Food was good; pancakes are sweet. We would go back.

    Ordered the sausage skillet with wheat toast and the food was incredible!!! Washed it down with a few cans of beer. Staff could’ve been slightly more polite but overall, I’m there for the food and not to make friends.

    Great menu, one of the best meals we had on our trip. Staff was friendly. Place was very busy, and is kind of small, but they have a bar that you can wait for a seat at. Food came quick, was hot, and very delicious.

  • 5/5 White & Gray M. 2 years ago on Google
    Pumkin pancakes!! The service was quick and aqurate with an easy menu. The chicken and chorizo skillet was excellent and well cooked to preserve the flavor of the protein and veggies. I added and extra egg, bacon, sausage and muffin to the mix and had the eggs over easy. The eggs were cooked perfectly, preserving the yolk for exceptional taste on the muffins and skillet as a topping. The pumpkin pancakes are really worth another trip or 12, lol. The cakes were light thick and fluffy with a delicious pumpkin flavor. The cream cheese topping was perfect for it and you are still able to taste the pumpkin, even after I put honey on them! Thank you to the staff and onwer for the wonderful food! The pepper and sea salt grinders with mustard in the condiment holder is such a nice touch!

    I had my first chicken and waffles experience here this morning! It was so delicious! It’s my first time in Ohio and I’ve had nothing but great experiences in and around the Columbus area. What a friendly, hip breakfast place!

    Definitely need to check this off tour bucket list of eateries while in Columbus. I had the Chicken Chorizo Skillet. It was great, had just the right amount of HEAT. Great staff and atmosphere. Will be coming back!

    This has always been one of my favorite hidden gems in Columbus. Started coming here as a grad student and still continue to frequent today. They've made a lot of positive changes over the years to their brand.

  • 5/5 Angelia H. 5 months ago on Google • 38 reviews
    Cool spot. But music was a little too loud for my liking. It was more like a bar ambiance, but I think that was the point. Food was awesome!

  • 5/5 Sue T. 1 month ago on Google • 26 reviews New
    Chelsea did such a great job not only serving us but making our visit a blast. Oh, the food?!? So good. Hubby had sloppy seconds and mama had walk of shame. No lying about the sausage, really great quality. Would recommend all day, every day. Fun, young happy crowd. Will stop again when we are in C-bus again!!! Thank you Chelsea for a perfect start to the day!

  • 5/5 Brandi G. 1 year ago on Google
    Simply delicious. Came here with my 2 year old for a quick breakfast while out running errands. I had the chicken & chorizo skillet with an English muffin and I ordered my toddler a waffle (Belgian) with a side of bacon and milk to drink (side note: there was not a selection on the menu designated for kids but the restaurant name makes me think there wouldn’t be- which is totally fine.. ha!). My meal was perfect. It was flavorful and literally needed nothing to improve it. The waffle was great as well. I will definitely be back!!

  • 5/5 Tamia 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing cheap food. Just like at home cooking but better. The best hangover food is breakfast. Love this place

  • 5/5 Eric Watts J. 4 months ago on Google • 17 reviews
    This spot has a unique breakfast menu that will have you very indecisive on what you have a taste for. After you give it a try you’ll be planning on when you wanna come back to try something else…I know I am! The environment is welcoming and just an overall good vibe w music and great service.

  • 5/5 Mina R. 10 months ago on Google
    Can't go wrong with breakfast at 2PM. Know what's even better? A fried egg, bacon, sausage, sandwiched between a glazed donut. So good!

  • 4/5 Yannick A. 1 year ago on Google
    The waffles are great, you know why? Not too sweet, that you have a Sugar rush eating it. My taste buds just didn't accept the chicken. The turkey sausage was also good. Was a cold morning, so I took a hot chocolate to wash it all down, then too myself home and in bed. Feeling Grateful🙏

  • 5/5 Victor Santana J. 2 years ago on Google
    Breakfast was SO GOOD! MUST have if you are in the area or live near by!

  • 5/5 Marcy G. 10 months ago on Google
    You know the food is going to be good when people are waiting outside in the rain for the doors to open. It did not disappoint! A fun place, great food, and Amanda M was an awesome server. If you haven't been here, you're missing out.

  • 5/5 Cheat D. 11 months ago on Google
    Yum! I’m very happy. I ordered the CBH. I love corned beef. Their potato’s were very good. Cooked perfectly. I’ll be back.

  • 3/5 Jill 6 months ago on Google
    Love the food here and never really had a weird or bad experience until my recent visit. Probably 5 minutes after signing the check we were wrapping up and the male host came over by our table and yelled to another host that we were “hogging the floor”. We were a party of two. Then I made eye contact with the host and he held up three fingers trying to tell me that he was seating 3 people where we were sat at our 2 top table. If he had just let us know he was trying to seat people nicely I would have been more that okay with getting up faster. The passive aggressiveness was not necessary and really soured the experience.

  • 4/5 Paul V. 8 months ago on Google
    Excellent food - it’s easy to see why people rave about it. The coffee, for a breakfast place, was disappointing. I got a chorizo skillet, and my colleague enjoyed chicken & waffles. Both were delicious, tho my colleague needed to get another plate as his was just stacked. Great food, just hard to manage as presented. The service was very friendly throughout, and the value good.

  • 5/5 Clinton H. 5 years ago on Google
    The catering and staffing of our wedding was flawless. Their food was fantastic and the planning easy. I would use them again in a heartbeat.

  • 5/5 kevin l. 6 years ago on Google
    All in One Stop Shop. You can get all your food needs service needs tent needs table needs chair needs pretty much anything and everything you could want for your event is here.

  • 5/5 Sophia J. 3 years ago on Google
    Everything on the menu could be customized as far as heat/spice. I asked for a super spicy Pad Thai and they delivered!! So good. Will definitely be going back.

  • 1/5 Meir W. 3 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Hillary M. 4 years ago on Google
    We had the most wonderful wedding and Metro did an OUTSTANDING job! The food was the highlight of the night and so many people commented on how delicious it was! The staff went out of their way to make sure our guests were taken care of and that we could enjoy the night. I would definitely hire Metro for any party I have.

  • 5/5 Michael K. 4 years ago on Google
    Metro Cuisine has the most versatile menu for so many different occasions. I highly recommend them an unforgettable experience. They treat you like family and you will love the food

  • 5/5 Missy H. 4 years ago on Google
    Honest Business! We had rented a warmer for our daughter's grad party and unfortunately were unable to pick it up due to her getting admitted to the hospital the same weekend :( Without having to ask, Metro refunded our money. I appreciate this and had just assumed we lost the $. Thank you for being an upstanding business :)

  • 5/5 Paul Clements M. 5 years ago on Google
    Great company to work with! We used them for wedding rentals (chairs, linens, dinnerware, etc). We could not have asked for more professionalism and flexibility from a company. The order was extremely easy to place and change as needed. High quality items at very fair prices. I am very thankful to Metro Cuisine for being a main reason our wedding day was so smooth. Special thanks to John Sowder who was our rental consultant!!

  • 5/5 Molly B. 4 years ago on Google
    Metro Cuisine is Vue's preferred caterer & I can totally see why. They are amazing! Andrea Kellett was my Metro coordinator and she went above and beyond! Her level of detail and organization helped reassure me that our wedding was going to go off without a hitch and it did! I couldn't thank her enough for all of her help. The wait staff & bartenders were INCREDIBLE! Seriously, myself, my parents, my husband & his parents were super impressed at how helpful, attentive and nice everyone was! They were very sweet & we even received many compliments from them on how beautiful we looked. They were quick to ask if we needed anything, making sure we were taken care of the entire time. I cannot recommend them enough! Outstanding team!

  • 1/5 Michal C. 4 years ago on Google
    Terrible customer service experience. Called to get a quote around table rental for a wedding in Athens, OH, the guy on the phone told me that they had availability and would email me a quote. A week and a half later, still no quote, so I called back and he asks for my info and says "Oh, I think I remember that" and then tells me that they won't be able to do it after all. They didn't bother to call me back or shoot me an email, just shrugged me off. Now I'm glad that I didn't decide to deal with an unreliable company with garbage customer service.

  • 5/5 Cody S. 4 years ago on Google
    At first, I wasn’t too sure about Metro Cuisine. My wife and I had booked our wedding with the Vue and the contractual obligation to have them cater the event did make me a little bit nervous. However, after we met Spencer, and after an epic taste testing, my reluctance was put to rest. The night of the reception went off without a single flaw. A huge thanks to Spencer who was always available, and had with him an uncanny ability to squash problems before they were able to become problems. The STAFF—was incredibly friendly and attentive, and their attention to detail was second to none. If anyone needed ANYTHING, they were there to handle it at a moment’s notice. This was especially appreciated when my wife thought she had missed out on the appetizers and found a sample plate sitting at her place at the table. Not only was the staff genuinely friendly from top to bottom, but they worked like a team of ninjas, unnoticed and out of sight, until the very second a clumsy guest dropped a fork, or an empty plate needed clearing. Some of the staff even helped me load some things into my vehicle after the reception when they were in no way obligated to do so. I’m not sure if they’re just good at hiring the right people or if it’s a result of team building/training, but in any case, it was pro status all the way. The FOOD--was terrific. I have a lot of picky eaters in my family, and I knew that if the food wasn’t up to par, I was going to hear about it. Not one person expressed the slightest hint of displeasure. Everything, from the appetizers (bacon/jelly shooters, shrimp cocktail, crab cakes) to the dinner were nothing short of excellent. We highly recommend the carrots & leaks and the mashed potatoes for sides. And while the Prime Rib was delicious and cooked to perfection, the Spicy Chicken with Mango glaze was a fan favorite that people are still talking about over six months later. And it’s not too spicy so don’t let the title scare you off. Okay. Now I’m getting hungry, so that’s it for me. A+++ all around for Metro Cuisine. Thanks again, Spencer.

  • 5/5 Jasmin D. 3 years ago on Google
    This place is pretty cute inside. The wait is always pretty long so i recommend calling first and asking for the wait time. You can also hold your place in line when you call. I’ve ordered the chicken and waffles & the B.E.L.T. The sandwich was light but still filling. & i had season fries which was also pretty great & crispy. great breakfast options. do recommend

    Very good experience dealing with Metro. They were very professional and price competitive. The guys that delivered it and set it up were polite and helpful. They were very helpful on the phone and all around great experience. I'm thinking about using them again next month.

    We had a great experience with Metro . They were wonderful from beginning to end. Andrea was awesome and the kind of calm energy you need when planning a wedding. Communication is great! All questions (sorry for all the questions) answered right away! Thanks for being awesome.

  • 5/5 Fahd Y. K. 6 years ago on Google
    Very happy with their service. Recently hired them on short notice for a party. They guy I talked to was very informative, gave me total cost upfront and was very transparent. Their pricing was reasonable. No hidden free. Their guys showed up at the right time to deliver the chairs and tables. After the event they came on time for pick up at a predetermined time. They were very punctual, professional throughout their service. I wasn't charged anything extra. I recommend them and would hire them again.

  • 5/5 Leslie B. 2 years ago on Google
    Absolutely delicious…great service and great food. The seating and service was quick even on a busy OSU homecoming weekend game day. The eggs/omelettes were perfect, the pancakes were light, fluffy and delicious. The orange juice was perfect….ice cold and refreshing. The atmosphere was fun and enjoyable. The servers were pleasant and accommodating. The only draw was the parking. The tow truck driver who had our vehicle hitched when we walked out said that if you are not paying to park you are parking in the wrong space. Thank goodness we came out at the right time and thank goodness he was a nice guy. 😁

  • 2/5 Alinda A. 2 years ago on Google
    Just ordered this from door Dash Pay $18 and this is what they sent me. When I try to call the store the number isn’t even in working order. I’ve ordered from this restaurant before and things were gray portions were adequate. This time it looks like they just didn’t care just get the money. Very dissatisfied

  • 4/5 Anne O. 2 years ago on Google
    Food was great!! Menu has variety and if you are like me, looking for healthy substitution, then some dishes can be customized. Nice, casual diner feel-- good spot for all ages.

  • 5/5 Alexandria B. 2 years ago on Google
    My favorite breakfast and brunch spot. Real casual atmosphere and absolutely delicious food. I bring my friends here all the time. And the staff is friendly and always takes good care of us.

  • 5/5 Ronny K. 3 years ago on Google
    The Food was absolutely amazing!! I had the braised rib homemade ravioli and the chocolate soufflé dessert. ABSOLUTELY EXCELLENT! Paired with a nice Chianti. The price is a bit more than other local restaurants but highly worth it
