    Awesome experience and service from Amber! Very attentive and accommodating to adding things to my order. Food was really good. I ordered the bissel breakfast and got a fruity waffle instead of a short stack. My daughter had a 3 cheese grilled cheese with ham and fries. She enjoyed her food as well. Will return.

    We had to wait about 15 minutes for brunch on a Saturday around 11am, pretty typical for any breakfast place on the Northeast side/Fishers. Our server was friendly and quick. Our food arrived quickly, even though they were packed. They don't have the best drip coffee but my croissant French toast was delicious, as usual. The bf had biscuits & gravy, which I have never liked and wouldn't try but he liked it as well. Solid brunch spot.

    First time visitor at this delicious restaurant. Wow the reviews are true! Service is great! Our server greeted us with a smile and showed us our table, then made suggestions when we told her it was our first time having breakfast there. I ordered chicken wings with waffles and classic egg benedict. Their hot chocolate was tasty and delicious. We truly enjoyed our meal here and I would certainly come back for breakfast!!

    I always get the shrimp and grits. It’s so good. I love how I can get breakfast or lunch anytime. I went on a Wednesday for brunch and it wasn’t too crowded. The service is always great. Our waitress was really nice .

    We love sitting at the bar area because my boyfriend and I love to watch the cooks having fun and enjoying what they do. The food was delicious. I always get the waffles with fruit ❤️ It’s a must. (AMBER)

    The food here is always phenomenal, but one of the best things about coming here is the service. I never go out anymore because since the apocalypse, it just hasn’t been as fun. Metro makes it feel like it never happened. We had Savannah this morning. She’s incredible. She made sure our food was made the weird way we asked for it. She was super friendly. It was just a really great experience. Also I don’t know what they put in their pancakes, but they’re the best I think I’ve had.

    Cheesesteak was amazing and our server Ashleigh B. Was awesome!! They were extremely busy for lunch but they found room for my wife and I to get in even with this giant electric wheelchair!! Definitely Recommend 🙌

    We were craving breakfast for dinner and stumbled across this diner. We're happy we did because this was exactly what we were looking for! They serve breakfast all day, and have all of the classic options. I got the Bissell breakfast which includes pancakes, eggs, meat, hash browns and bread. Everything was tasty, and I especially liked the hash browns which had a unique and flavorful seasoning to them. Our waitress was very friendly and we received our food quickly. They are also very kid friendly as well!

    Needed a break from tense moments with a family member in the hospital. Found Metro Diner online and thought it looked interesting. It was a great experience. It was fun, busy, noisy and exactly the change of scenery we needed! The food was interesting, filling, and delicious. Thanks so much for the break. I have been drinking from my Metro Diner coffee mug every morning and it makes me smile.

    I wanted to give this place 5 star because the shrimp and grits is amazing 👏 😋, but what got a star taken away was the country potatoes was cold when it came to the table and when I brought it up to the person who brought it up she took it back and the waitress who we had brought it back to the table hot but over cooked a little bit too much and it look and taste as if they refried those potatoes just to heat them back up which turn us off, other than that service was good but them Shrimp and grits my hat goes off to you, whomever came up with this you're awesome and very talented. Thank you because now I'm hooked!

    Excellent food and service. The service was speedy with it being a Saturday. The food was delicious. I got the potato soup which is my favorite. I wish they served it every day. Our server kachae was extraordinary. Very attentive and had great recommendations for the rest of my family. Will return again and again and again.

    I absolutely loved this place, our server Jonathan was honestly so sweet and helpful, and Bob told us some really cool details about the diner too. My family and I just went, and I had to leave a review right after because it was just that good. We’re not from here, but we are 100% coming back tomorrow. All the food was absolutely delicious, I recommend the fish and chips. It was honestly such a 10/10 experience and I would tell anyone looked for someplace to eat around here to come here. Everything was amazing, thank you to everyone who chatted with us and especially to Jonathan for being so amazing.

    We come to metro often and always enjoy the food. We’ve had Amber a few times and love having her as a server. She’s friendly and attentive. We will be back! Many times, I’m sure!

    I received fast service. The food was cooked as I asked and served promptly. My waitress, Kandace, was a vision of happiness with her terrific smile, kept my teapot full, attentive to her duties as a waitress. The restaurant was clean. Including the bathroom. Seasonal welcoming committee in the entrance too!

  • 5/5 Amanda C. 7 months ago on Google
    Great breakfast! Great service! Kandace was the best waitress! And if you love pumpkin, their pancakes are to die for!

    We moved away and don't have a Metro Diner near us anymore. We couldn't help but stop there being in the neighborhood. I just had massive amounts of fasting blood work and was taking the day off of responsibilities. It was SO SO GOOD and like being welcomed "home". Santa greeting us was a nice touch! We ordered breakfast to eat there and dinner to take home. Exceptional food, value, and excellent service. We love them and miss them. Please OPEN one in Whitestown?! Pretty please?!

    Great place to have breakfast. Reasonable prices and good service. The eggs were cooked perfectly and the bacon was very good. If you are hungry the BLT is huge.

  • 5/5 Tennille B. 7 months ago on Google
    We had the shrimp and grits and chicken and waffles. Both were piping hot, fresh and so damn good! Both meals filled us up, we had some to take home. I recommend both meals if you can’t decide on just one. Our server Amber was the best. Very attentive and helpful when trying to decide between the two.

    My husband and I brought my parents here for their first time. We ordered the chicken & waffles (AMAZING as per usual), the stuffing waffles, fruity waffle & my husband had a chicken sandwich. Everything came out hot and quick! Our server was kind and knew the menu well.
