I enjoyed it! A few friends and I dined here on Tuesday 4/21. We were seated right away in an upstairs table. There's a lot of glass and windows, and the even have karaoke at night. They stay open til 3 AM. I ordered the Saturday Afternoon cocktail. It was very good, sweet, enjoyable, and a good portion for the price. Right downtown, convenient, fair pricing, and excellent service. read more

Today i had had lunch at Metro Diner in downtown Atlanta. Overall, the experience was decent--about a 6/10. The food was good but not exceptional. I had the chicken with tomato sauce and fresh basil, served with white rice and vegetables, while my wife ordered a vegetable omelet with hash browns. We also had a couple of beers, which rounded out the meal nicely. The waitress was pleasant, One important thing to note: there was an automatic 18% service charge added to the bill, that was not mention when the bill was handed, and the receipt still included an open line for an additional tip. If you're not paying attention, you could easily end up tipping much more than expected. Overall, it's an okay spot when other restaurants are closed for lunch,but just be mindful of the billing details before you pay. A.Franco read more

At this point I've been to Metro Diner so many times I've literally lost count. Always a great time. Timely courteous service. The food is consistent and with nightly karaoke, the ambiance is always a vibe. Definitely my go to after a night of hanging out when I'm not quite ready to end the night. The patty melt with bacon & fries is my go to order & it hits every single time!!! read more

Food: Judge for yourself! I'm about to dive in but, it looks perfect. Only wish that I received a whole sandwich for $21.00 Survey says...it was very good!!!! Service: Nicely served for my take-out order. Ambiance: Huge spot like 2-3levels great for various sizes of crowds. They even offer Nightly Karaoke which I may have to check out one night! PSA: I dislike that 12% gratuity is charged for to go orders. read more

The sausage, bacon, and pancakes were mediocre. But they serve liquid eggs. Eyyyuck! I sent them back to get "real" eggs and they sent back 1/2 liquid eggs and a real egg. Smh. read more

Second year coming to Dragon Con and second year hitting up the Diner. Service continues to be terribly slow. Make that first glass of water last because good luck getting a second. Family was done eating and I had to send them on while I waited for our waitress to return to the table and then for the check to actually show up and then for the sign copy to show up. It took a while... Food was fantastic though! Started off with mozzarella sticks that my daughter said, "killed the cheese pull test!" They were really good. Daughter had the chicken and waffles. The waffle was amazing! I don't say that lightly; I eat lots of waffles. It was cooked to perfection and just a hint of vanilla. I had the chicken quesadilla. It was good, nothing spectacular. I'd get it again. I'll continue to come back every year as the food is really really good but I sure hope they hire more staff! read more

This morning we enjoyed a relaxing breakfast at Metro Diner & Bar in downtown Atlanta, and it was the perfect way to start the day. We were seated on the second floor by the window, which gave us a great view overlooking the streets below. With DragonCon in full swing, it was extra fun to sip coffee and watch the colorful crowd of cosplayers and attendees walking by--it gave the whole experience a lively, unique vibe. The menu has plenty of hearty options, from omelets to classic plates. I went with the two egg classic breakfast which came with egg my way, bacon, ham or sausage and choice of toast, and everything was fresh, flavorful, and filling. Service was friendly and efficient even with the busy convention weekend crowds. The staff kept everything moving while making sure we had what we needed. If you're in downtown Atlanta--especially during DragonCon--Metro Diner & Bar is a great breakfast spot for good food, quick service, and prime people-watching. They serve breakfast all day and have karaoke at night. read more

Solid spot. I was in town for a conference and came here for breakfast. It was pretty empty so I was seated right away. Ordered pretty quickly and got my food just as fast. Food was solid. I like their hash browns and eggs were cooked perfectly. I'm sure this place can get loud and rowdy when it fills up. Check it out. read more

My friend and I were in Atlanta for a few days and we literally came here for dinner two nights in a row. He's British and really wanted to experience American diner culture and this is probably about as close as you can get in downtown Atlanta. They have a vast menu and plenty to choose from. One night I had the Caesar salad and the other night I had one of the chicken wraps. Everything was pretty good diner fair. When I say pretty good I mean for a diner it was good but definitely diner food. So nothing too special but mostly consistent. Ambience is very '80s or 90s looking and you can tell it hasn't changed much since then. Some good views out the window of Peachtree Center Avenue. Service was always quick and easy. Staff was friendly but always in a hurry. Overall what else can I say except everything here was consistent and tasted good enough and prices were pretty good for downtown. You get what you get and that gives it five stars in my point of view! read more

The 80s retro vibe is super fun and the lively karaoke bar downstairs adds a lot of energy to the place. However, the classic dinner food itself was pretty average and greasy, my breakfast platter was swimming in oil and the fries were soggy. read more

Came in on a Sunday evening for dinner. We were greeted immediately coming up the steps. There weren't many people in, so we were seated quickly. It was pretty quiet, but most of the guests were seated on the same area. We preferred a panini and chicken and waffles. Both meals were good and came out fast. Our sever was attentive and was able to accommodate any ask. Overall, I enjoyed my experience and would come back if I'm in the area. read more

If you're looking for a late night eat. This is the place. Lol now when you walk in and see neon lights and dance floor and dj don't be taken back. Just keep walking up the steps, the diner is on top. Prices are extremely reasonable. I got a traditional breakfast eggs , bacon, toast. But what is important is that they use real eggs even for scrambled. Bacon crispy like I asked. The orange juice isn't fresh squeezed more sunny delight type but I'm not complaining, just letting you know. The service is really good, staff has always been nice and attentive. I've returned a few times during my Visit to Atl so it's a keeper in my Book. read more

We didn't have to wait long for a table but waiting for our food took over an hour. I ordered the tortellini and it was awful. Couldn't eat it. My partner ordered a burger, it was okay. The fries were pretty good. The prices were really high for food that was not good. Still gave it to stars because it was a cool looking restaurant. Looks like they have karaoke sometimes. read more

This may have been a better experience if we were doing karaoke. We instead came for food and drinks because they were open and many places close early in downtown ATL. The food was barely over fast food. The mozzarella sticks were no where near as good as sonic. The buffalo chicken sand-which was ok but definitely nothing to write home about. It was very loud which again i get if your main purpose is going to do karaoke. The service was ok. Everything was kinda sticky. Just not a huge fan but props for being open late. read more

Little bit of a dive restaurant. The main floor wasn't open for breakfast. Signs directed me up the stairs of this multi floor office building. View was sweet as I watched the Atlanta bustle from my table. The coffee was perfect and yes, some restaurants serve u drinkable coffee. I had the gravy and two biscuits at $7.50. Biscuits were fresh homemade. Flaky and warm, I was tempted to re-order. Service was spot on. Note that 18% gratuity was automatic and thus no real need to tip additional. ( read more

Meh. Dirty, grimy. Food was hit and miss! I say that because my food was a mess and my dining partner's food was a hit. I ate her food more than my own! How can one mess up a BLT? Sigh. I ended up eating my partner's pesto chicken sandwich. She had a huge salad and a chicken sandwich, which was really good. My food was awful. I didn't eat it. Service was fair, even though the place was busy. Our server was bubbly, friendly and did a decent job, although she saw that I didn't touch my food and had zero comments about it. I also didn't complain about it because I didn't feel like bothering with it a second time after sending it back because it was the wrong food order to begin with. We were there for a conference and a bunch of people ended up here from our conference because it was close proximity to our hotel. I overheard people from our group complaining before we even ordered. That should've been my sign to get up and go someplace else. I will definitely not eat here again nor will I recommend it. read more

Metro Diner & Bar - Diners Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

I'll give this a confusing 3 star rating. Why? Because I'm really not sure how to describe or feel about this place. I only came here once. It was 1130pm at night. I got in late from a flight in and it was in walking distance from my hotel and the kitchen was open. I walked in on a Monday night and the place was lit. I came and thought it was a club the way people were lit on a Monday night. Dance floor had everyone on it dancing. It was karaoke night and everyone was having the time of their lives. The lighting is low lit. The main lights were off and the place was illuminated with blue and purple lights. You walk up the stairs to get to the seating area / to order to go. The place is sneakingly bigger than it appears. The seating opens up and it resembles any other diner seating. Just a bit more cooler with the lights and ambiance. Took my food to go. Got wings and a Buffalo chicken sandwich. The sandwich was decent. The wings were seasoned real well. But probably a little bit too much salt. I realized at that time of the day this was as best as it was going to get. Price was meh. For it being where the restaurant was in terms of location. It wasn't bad. I walked here but Atlanta traffic is notoriously bad. I didn't see any private parking so you'll have to find street parking or park in the nearby parking garage read more

Stopped at Metro Diner & Bar to grab breakfast one morning after visiting the nearby Atlanta Passport Agency. The breakfast of scrambled eggs with cheese, paired with pancakes and turkey sausage was freshly made and tasty. i was also able to order a hot chocolate with whipped cream that was great. Reagan, the server was pleasant, attentive, and helpful. It was typical diner fare for breakfast, but i appreciated that all of the elements were made with care. The only downside is that i noticed the restaurant could use a deep clean. i make it a personal practice to only go to restaurants that have good health code ratings, and thankfully Metro Diner & Bar's recent standing show no violations. However, the floors didn't look very clean, and there was noticeable grime on the windows. They could pay a bit more attention to making the dining room a bit brighter as well. It's clear that this restaurant has been around a long time - it may be time for some deep cleaning and a general refresh/sprucing up. Overall, however, a decent place for a good breakfast! read more

I had a blast last night! My coworker and I went after work to decompress and it was so much fun. We got there late on a Sunday all we were able to do was order a drink then we had to go upstairs to order food. Either way, great place to bring friends and family that are visiting or if you just love karaoke! read more

Metro Diner & Bar - Garden omelette with grits - Diners Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Interior is super fun and unique. I know they do karaoke nights but because of that, they never show the sports games happening. We wanted to watch the CFP but they insisted on saving the tvs for karaoke (nobody showed up to karaoke). They were nice about the whole thing but when you have a group of 30/40 people coming to watch the game, at least show it on a couple screens. Someone in our group got food poisoning in the middle of the night to the point he had to rush to the hospital. This place presents itself as a good sports spot but it felt like the whole reason we were there was brushed off to the side. If you have nowhere else to go, then stop here, but I'm sure there's better places around. Only reason it's getting 2 stars is because the service wasn't mean/rude and the atmosphere itself was decent. read more

There are very few decent dining/ breakfast options in the greater hotel plaza, but Metro Diner offers some refuge. I ordered the fried steak and eggs with grits. I'm new to grits but these were very obviously under-flavored and difficult to consume. At night Metro turns into a large karaoke bar and becomes extremely lively. read more

My coworkers and I visited for lunch since it was close to our hotel. The Metro Diner has 2 levels -- a bar downstairs and restaurant upstairs. The menu offered both breakfast and lunch. I chose a veggie omelet and my coworkers had the Caesar salad with salmon and shrimp. The food came out at a reasonable temperature. The service was good. The server was very attentive and the food came out on a timely manner. It is a decent restaurant if you are in downtown Atlanta. Nothing fancy. I would dine there again fir breakfast or lunch read more

Casual restaurant located with in walking distance of several downtown hotels. There's quite a few stairs to enter the restaurant also to go up to the dining area. You enter in on the lower level which houses the bar, where they were doing karaoke. Upon arriving to the top level where the hostess station was located. We were immediately greeted and seated. The food was okay, they give you really large portions, however my Alfredo Pasta wasn't the best. Edible but definitely giving diner food 5/10. My cocktail was a 10/10 though. read more

Recently stayed at the Westin and this was open late and walking distance. It was almost 1am when me and my party of 3 arrived. It was crowded, but we were seated within 10 minutes of arriving. They had karaoke going on so the entrance/first floor was lit. Sat upstairs and still could hear anything and enjoyed it. I ordered an omelet, a mix of meat & veggies and it was DELICIOUS! The hashbrowns weren't cooked hard like I usually like, but they were good. read more

I did NOT expect the vibe this place had based on its name and the look from outside. But once you walk in there is so much life and fun! The lights add a cool look and the music is great. There was karaoke and people could also dance too. The drinks were good; we ordered watermelon Red Bull margaritas. To eat we ordered chicken tenders, it was sooo delicious and the perfect finger food for a night out. The service was great despite it being busy and overall we had a a great time! read more

I was a conference and went to Metro for breakfast one morning. I would say it's a little overprices for what it is, but the portions are HUGE. There was no way I was going to finish everything. I had eggs, bacon, potatoes, and toast. Everything was flavorful. The service was good. My server checked back on my several times. Here's my concern. I had recently had some knee pain and had to climb stairs to get to the restaurant (I know first world problems). Then, I had to climb more stairs to get to my table. If I were to go back today, that would be just fine, but when I was there it wasn't. I'm hoping they have an elevator somewhere and I just didn't see it because my experience was not ADA compliant. They need to make sure that an elevator or some other form of lift is conspicuously marked. Otherwise, my experience here was good. read more

I've been coming to this restaurant for years and this is the first time my food tasted like trash. I ordered a veggie omelette with cheese, cheddar cheese and some other stuff grits with cheese that tasted watery.
