Absolutely Delicious! I am a foodie and decided to give this place a try and it blew me away. I will definitely be back. Thank you for the great service Cassie and my compliments to the chef!

For starters I would 0/10 recommend getting the spinach dip it just wasn’t a hit here. The strip was great, service was amazing. Everyone made sure everything was good what seemed like every few minutes. Came here for my 21st & I feel like I made a great choice! Loved the set up they had also.

Passing through, local friends took me here. They spoke highly of the restaurant and its owners. I ordered the churrasco steak and it was incredible, extremely tender and delicious. the wait staff was fantastic. they were very attentive and couldn't have been better. The owners of this restaurant are doing something special 10/10.

Amazing service and food. Every bite was packed with flavor. Cassie recommended the Fettuccini Porcini and we got the Churrasco with a side of Sautéed Broccolini for our main. The Empanadas for starters and the house Chocolate Soufflé. Our waitress, Michelle along with the rest of the staff was such a delight. I cannot wait to be back already!

The staff here are fantastic! But I think I just expected a better... Atmosphere considering the menu prices. The lights were bright, it didn't feel very romantic. The tables and chairs remind me of my kitchen table from 1996 (80's baby) and the table settings seemed... Inexpensive. And I don't remember hearing any music. Maybe it was just turned down low. Idk. The food was pretty good. The wine and spirit selection is very good and the dinner rolls came with a delicious cream cheese spread.

This should be 5 stars!!! Incredible service, perfectly cook and seasoned food and a wonderful atmosphere! From the margaritas, to the steaks and tirimisu we will absolutely be back! Can't say enough great things about this restaurant! 🤩

It's one of the best steaks I have ever eaten. Everything was delicious. The dessert was amazing. Highly recommend this place.

WOW! Took my 15 year old son out for his birthday and it was a fantastic experience. The restaurant is gorgeous! The staff is 6 star friendly, helpful and kind. The food... The food is incredible! Metro 8 is a steakhouse with a more than steak menu. Everything we ordered was great! This is certainly our go to formal restaurant.

All of the food was top tier. The Alfredo spinach is just spinach and Alfredo so it's a bit different but not bad. The bread and herbed butter were 4/5. Proteins were well seasoned and cooked right. Lamb chops 5/5 Skirt steak 5/5. Both came with some red herbed up vinegarette which was underwhelming. Both meats could use specific specialized sauces for the price. But sauceless the skirt steak was great tender and juicy and the lamb chops were S teir a must try item. The French fries were perfectly crispy and fluffy 5/5. The ranch is pretty much store bought. On a whole this place would be heavenly if the sauce game was better. The service was great but the atmosphere feels slightly dull but the food and people make up for it.

This restaurant is basically a little above average than any steak house or decent restaurant in Durham. The fillet was good but not great. The pan seared salmon was okay but not good. The service was fine and key lime pie and chocolate souffle was above average. We were there on a Saturday evening and the place was maybe half full....

I want to say this is the best Steak house in Durham area..Delicious, you will test the spices, meat,sauce, everything..I like it..I ordered 16OZ Churrasco skirt steak..definitely I'm coming back again..😊

Best steaks EVER! The waitresses are very accommodating and pleasant. Our second family visit was every bit as enjoyable as our first. [Excellent mojitos too!] Thank the Lord, bless the Cook, and Heaven help the Dishwasher! 🤣 We will be back❣

My husband and I visited this restaurant last night (Saturday evening). It wasn’t that busy so we were seated right away. The place could be cute if they cleaned it up a bit, dimmed the lights and added some updated decor. It reminds me of Brigs, the breakfast place) versus a fine dining steakhouse. Don’t order the caprese salad for an appetizer. The tomatoes were hard and pink. Not at all ripe for a caprese salad. My husband ordered an Old Fashioned. Every steakhouse or restaurant with a quality bar should know how to make a good Old Fashioned. They used maraschino cherries instead of cocktail cherries. Bartender also smashed a chunk of orange into the drink rather than a squeeze of the zest. Absolutely terrible! I ordered a glass of Pinot Grigio to have with dinner. I asked that it be brought out with my dinner. I had half of my dinner eaten by the time the server came to check on us. I had to remind her to bring me a glass of wine. The steaks were ok. Not amazing by any means but ok. The bench where we were seated was dirty with shoe marks. Overall, I wouldn’t go back. If you want a good steak and nice atmosphere go to Ruth’s Chris or Vinnie’s or Sullivan’s or Rey’s.

Such an amazing food experience. Customer service was outstanding. Got to meet the owners/chefs wife and she treated us like VIPs. Our server had a British accent that brought the level of services up a notch. I wish I lived closer because I would definitely be back. Also the pesto whipped butter with hot rolls is to die for.

Do yourself a favor and go here instead of Ruth's Chris. We ended up here because we waited too long to make a reservation at our previously mentioned celebration restaurant and I'm glad we did. The Churrascois fantastic. Nice wine selection and great dessert. The family was well pleased

Elegant, great atmosphere, amazing cuisine, great wait staff. Worth the drive from Raleigh to find this hidden steakhouse gem. Should be rated higher than the best steakhouses in the Raleigh area in my opinion coming from a “foodie”. The menu is elegant in its simplicity and dishes are all done to a high standard. Recommend the NY Strip medium rare - It is fantastic and about 3” thick. Better than Angus Barn, Sullivans, Ruth Chris and Capital Grille for quality authentic American-Argentine style steak in a causal to formal setting. Great value for the quality of food, service and setting. Definitely my new favorite steakhouse in the Raleigh - Durham area.

Dee guided us with great suggestions on the wine and dinner menu. Super prompt with service and made us and our guest feel special. We started with a couple drinks, Cesar and house salad. Cesar salad was huge, good for 2. Hanger steak, filet mignon and homemade fettuccine for dinner - everything was good and gone. Chocolate torte and souffle for dinner with port and b52 to bow on a beautiful dinner. We'll definitely be back. Dee, Karissa, and the staff made our evening memorable.

Excellent steak house just outside of Downtown Durham. Menu has Brazilian vibes. Filet Au Poivre was cooked to perfection. Tiramisu was a huge portion and was delicious but the chocolate lava cake was amazing.

Great place, good prices for the high quality of the food. One bonus is now they have a parkng lot. Churasco was very flavorful & cooked just right. Excellent service, welcoming.

The food was under seasoned and just okay. Just okay is not really what I’m expecting at a steakhouse, so we were pretty disappointed with our dinner. On a positive note, the staff was super attentive and friendly.

Great service and delicious food. The chimichurri sauce is *chefs kiss* and goes well with the filet, salmon or the churrasco steak!

Went for early dinner so the place was not crowded yet which we loved. Service was great and food was just as good. Prices are on par for the food quality that you get. Their churrasco steak which they are known for is quite good if you like that type of steak. Will definitely recommend for steak lovers.

Went there for Duke's Parents Weekend. THE food was great. I got the Cowboy Steak and It was so tender and cooked perfectly. BUT please make a reservation place fills up quick

I had a few people recommended Metro 8 but never had the chance to make it here until last week when I took some colleagues here for a business dinner. The service and food were both excellent. The steaks were cooked perfectly and fantastic flavor. Three dsserts were shared between the 6 of us and it was just the right amount with how rich they were. The only more neutral observation was that my 32oz ribeye was slightly smaller than I expected yet the flavor made up for it. Would definitely come here again. Oh, the rolls and the jalapeño cilantro cream cheese that came out before appetizers was the best rolls I've ever had in a restaurant!

One of my fave restaurants in Durham and we always go when in town! Waiters are attentive and will accommodate food preferences and allergies. Variety of dishes absolutely everything is delicious. We love their caprese salad and pasta dishes, the abundant choices of sides. The mushroom soup is the best and finish it all off with a crepe. Best restaurant in Durham hands down.

Great water, Very heart healthy! No seasoning was used on any of the food. I’m not sure who is giving this place high ratings but they should be investigated and jailed immediately. The service was good. Prices were good, but I would’ve happily paid 25-40% more for better food.

Elliot is the best waiter! Love his accent! He always goes out of his ways to make sure we get top notch service! He’s one of the main reasons that we return each Wednesday!! This place has great! Food is delicious and prices are pretty good! I go every Wednesday because they have 1/2 price wine. 100% recommended!!!

Metro 8 was great. My partner and I visited for date night. Before we could order food my partner passed out! Luckily she fell into a soft booth. At least 5 staff members ran over immediately to help us out. She came to fast but was still woozy. The staff brought over so many things to help her out including cold compresses, water, and rolls. My wife hadn't eaten all day so we are guessing this was the cause. Ali, our waiter, was so helpful and kept checking in us. We ended up ordering the food to go. Even though it was not fresh, our steaks were delicious. Can't wait to go again and and not have anybody pass out.

Brilliant food. Great staff and great atmosphere. I can't think of anything to critique even if I tried. The lady serving us who I believe was the owner was amazing to us. We also found out the chicken is halal and I think the lamb is too (as it comes from New Zealand) I know my go to spot for special nights out now !

Excellent food and service! White table cloth dinning but....not too $$$ actually. We enjoyed our entire experience and felt good about what we paid. Also, you will never...ever...run out of water. 🤣

I attended a friend birthday dinner. The food was great. I had the house salad (it was huge) and delicious. Also, I had the New York strip steak and baked potato, it was best I ever had. The service was great. Kudos to Elliott and the other two ladies (sorry I didn't remember their names). Yes I plan to go again.

Amazing food, service and atmosphere! We had our dad's 87th birthday party here and it was incredible! Thanks for a beautiful evening!

We came for an anniversary dinner and we were blown away! The food was excellent the servers were attentive and went the extra mile. Steaks melted in your mouth. Be sure to make a reservation as it fills up quickly for dinner hour

Food is good, service is lacking. 2 hrs for a dinner in which we only order a main dish, no appetizers and Orders didn’t come as ordered. When it was brought to the server and manager they were dismissive and just didn’t care. Of course 20% tip already included on parties of 5 or more so they don’t care about what kind of service they give you.

Service was 10/10. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Dessert was amazing, tiramisu and cheesecake 10/10. Unfortunately, entrees were lacking. The salmon was swimming in a very strong citrus butter sauce that was just too much while the salmon itself was flavorless. The strip steak was good and the baked potato was good.

AMAZING!! my fiancé and I went to celebrate our engagement and we were so well taken care of by server Ali. The churrasco was delicious - great price ($22 for 8oz) and flavor. The empanadas were so yummy. Ali came by to fill our waters and tea so frequently. He also offered to take our pictures! It’s a small, intimate and photogenic atmosphere. 10/10 recommend this spot.

The food is delightful. Highly recommend the skirt steak and lobster raviolis. Also, the chocolate soufflé is just perfect. Service is excellent. Our server, Dee, made our birthday celebration special. Wednesday night is half off wine night, so that is nice as well.

Exquisite dining experience. The service was completely on point, classy and professional. Perfect place to celebrate an event or enjoy a steak and some wine. The filet with au poivre sauce was amazing - cooked perfectly tender.

Parking was free and easy. I remember lots of names of people there they have great personalities and appeared to be happy to be at work. Ali showed us to our table we chatted a bit ( thank you for your service) the recommendations were perfect. I had the shank steak. D was so sweet she even doubled as our photographer. Everyone was so attentive. The owner Cassie even stopped at our table. The desert was amazing I'm glad I wasn't sharing it, Lol. Everything was very nice the place the food the people.

One of the best steaks I've ever had and our server was an absolute doll and made the experience worth every dollar.

We had an amazing experience. We made reservations prior and were able to avoid any wait time. We had asked for a secluded table when we made reservations, and they were able to accommodate our request. We had a great table which happened to be next to their beautiful Christmas tree, which added a nice magical touch to our experience. We had the provoleta and chorizo for our appetizer and both were delicious. My husband had the cowboy ribeye and said it was the best he has had. So tender and juicy and seasoned perfectly. I had their popular Churrasco steak, and it was equally amazing. Their sides are a little basic but still very tasty. Overall, we had a great time and enjoyed the food. The service was great, and the whole staff works together to take care of you. It was refreshing to see. We would definitely make our way back.
