Metro Diner - Chicken and Waffles - American Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Good diner like dining! Service is good too. Sometimes there is a wait, but it's worth it. Be sure you can handle all they have to offer.

I've only been for breakfast. The food is good and they give you plenty of it. I usually get the two eggs with bacon breakfast. Thankfully, they offer gluten free bread which is awesome because I love my toast! Service is quick for both carry out and dine in. The staff is always friendly. read more

It took some time before I was able to check out Metro Diner. I had heard a lot about it from co-workers and friends who frequent the place. So, with that said, I have visited this location twice within a month. A couple co-workers and myself made a lunch visit and I enjoyed my breakfast sandwich and fries. My second visit was around the Holidays with my Parents in town visiting. We headed over for Saturday breakfast. Saturday draws quite the crowd for breakfast. We waited nearly thirty minutes for our table. But, it was all good - the food is definitely worth it. I chose the breakfast pie, added bacon with a side of grits. Very good pie indeed! I described it as basically being a inside out omelet! Yum. Grits were tasty as well. They charged an extra George Washington (that's $1) to add the bacon... They must change the menu constantly, because I couldn't find the aforementioned breakfast sandwich on the menu during the second go 'round. Can't wait to make it back. read more

My 1st time eating at Metro Diner in Huntersville was fantastic. Upon entering we were greeted & experienced a short wait (10 minutes) as it was a bit crowded. There was a coffee pot off to the side for anyone wanting to self serve which was a nice gesture. Our waiter was prompt, welcomed us to MD, & gave a brief presentation as it was out 1st time there. We had the chicken & Waffles along with the Holy Davoli Burger. I must say, that wassim of the best fried chicken I've had. It was well seasoned with a crunchy batter. It comes with half chicken (leg, thigh, wing, & breast) which was unbelievable. The waffles were perfect being soft in the middle while offering a slight crunch. The Davoli burger was great too. If you can imagine, it's basically 2 grilled cheese sandwiches w/bacon, coleslaw, tomatoes, & a beef patty. It was enormous & delightful. All in all, this place is a must visit & a gem of an establishment. read more

Metro Diner - Fried Chicken Benedict. - American Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

I don't typically like diners but this place rocked. I'm only not giving it 5 stars because the wait time each time I've been here has been super stupid and I know the food us the reason. Chicken and waffles was good as hell. Strawberry butter and fresh cook to order chicken. Crab cake benedict was exactly what I expected. They also had mimosas1 Strip lot...plenty of parking. It's a diner so diner prices. Friendly services and quick. No complaints here. read more

This is such a great local neighborhood diner. It feels like home. They have an awesome menu and serve breakfast, lunch and dinner. The service is so awesome. Everyone there speaks to you like a friend. It's almost like you are sitting in someone's kitchen. The food comes very fast. We walked in late in the day not realizing that they were closing early for the holiday. Even though we were the last ones there so one kicked us out. We left out of respect for theIr time. I had the avocado veggie wrap and fries. It was delicious. Filled with avocado and veggies. It comes with cheese and sour cream, but I asked them to remove them. They put spicy jalapeños in the wrap which added such a great touch of flavor. I loved the kick. They have a great menu with lots of options. Our waiter was so sweet and kind. He took great care of us. I will definitely be back. read more

Great for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. One of our top choices on Uber eats as well. My wife loves their chicken pot pie and pot roast. I enjoy their breakfast sandwich. read more

I promised to come back and order something different. Tonight I ordered the turkey plate. Turkey was very good and the side vegetables were excellent. Gravy was just ok...not much taste. The only thing I didn't like was the dish was served with a piece of French bread that was just tossed into the mashed potatoes. Overall the meal was much better than my original post so I have given them 4 stars. Total bill (water) with tip was 14.35. Reasonable for a fresh tasty turkey breast dinner. read more

The service was excellent: We were greeted immediately, our waitress was very efficient and our food came out very quickly. The fruit was very fresh and flavorful, but my poached eggs had zero taste. The coffee was good. Ambience is okay. read more

Delicious chicken and waffles - love coming here with my family. Great spot for dinner

Stopped in here during my lunch break (it was a full house) and we just had to wait a couple of minutes for them to finish wiping a booth down. The service, overall, was decent. Our server was friendly. I was waiting a little bit for the check (since we did have a time limit). I ordered the two eggs breakfast which came with the eggs, toast, bacon, and I got cheese grits. It came out hot, and the bread was pretty buttered. The grits are not that bad, but I definitely have had better. The bacon was cooked a bit too crispy for my liking, but it was still good. And more than enough to fill me up! I will most likely be back here because it does have a homey feeling for me. P.S. the sweet tea is soooo good!! read more

My second time here. The best chicken and waffles and a very large portion for the price. I am from out of town and will definitely return next time. This is my first stop when In Pineville. read more

Great staff. Can get busy, but worth the wait. Good social distancing measures in place. Reasonable pricing. Crayons and activity menu for the kids. read more

Second time for charm, much better experience from the first visit. Went to breakfast this morning, and clearly not as busy as the first time. Flying solo, sat at the counter, which brings back memories of diners up north-comfort and home. The food was good and the service also much better. Loved talking with the chef. Went safe with a ham and cheese omelette, which came with hash browns and I also went with a biscuit. Everything was good, and the biscuit was huge! I will come back and give their Eggs Benedict a try. Arrived at 9, seated by the kitchen, seems like we were forgotten. Had to look for someone to serve us, been here a half hour, have coffee, but no food yet. After 20 minutes, finally got food, no one has come around to ask about our meal, no refill on coffee. I ordered the Corn beef hash -- cooked on flat top, was crunchy. I wouldn't order again. My friend had the breakfast sandwich, which was cold, probably because it took 20 minutes to get food. First time here, not sure if I would come back. It's like our table was forgotten. It want that busy, so service should have been better, and food, nothing to write home about--very disappointed. The manager, Keith, was very apologetic and does seem to care, and our waitress Sha was good--she was doing damage control. We provided our feedback--let's see. read more

This was my last day in this area before we left to go home so we decided to go somewhere for breakfast. This family feel diner was such a nice ending to our out of town experience. Customer service: The server was pretty good. He made sure he went up and beyond to make sure we understood the menu, refilled our cups, make sure we got what we ordered and enjoyed it and was just overall friendly and attentive. And that was the vibe I recieved from the entire diner. Food: We all ordered breakfast, and it was super good!! They have these crossaint pancakes that was amazing with this strawberry butter, my goodness! B O M B! My friend had fried grits & gravy with shrimp. Yes, I said FRIED grits and I tried some and it was actually really good. Honestly, I tried bits of everyone's plates. Lol. Everyone had good selections. The servings were huge & for the price honestly you couldn't beat it. I would definitely recommend this spot if you're in the area. Great staff, good vibe, family like atmosphere and most importantly, really good food. You can't go wrong! read more

The food was delicious! The croissant French toast with the strawberry butter was great. I had the coffee of the day which was the harvest brew that was supposed to be like French vanilla. It didn't taste the greatest. read more

Was very disappointed this morning! We have been ordering Sunday breakfast through DoorDash which delivery was great but was not even close to what we ordered. Had my name on bag but wrong order! So someone else got our order and we got theirs! I think they just put the names on wrong I will continue to order from Metro Diner this was just one of those things that happen! read more

Reed was great!!! Food was excellent as always but you have a good one with him on your team!

I love southern food and/or classics with a southern twist. I got the spicy honey chicken biscuit. The biscuit was made to perfection and the chicken was perfectly crisp and moist. The customer service at this place was very well and the food was made and served in a timely manner. It was a nice environment, quiet, not very loud. My overall visit was nice and I would definitely recommend to friends and family. Trying something different on the menu next time. read more

Metro Diner - Spicy Honey Chicken Breakfast Sandwich - American Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

The best rootin tootin food I ever tasted. Don't even know what I got, just asked who I think might have been Jesus Christ himself (my mighty fine waiter) to surprise me with some food and had myself the best damn loaf of meat I ever put in my mouth. God looks upon this diner like I look upon a nice pair of feet. I usually do food critique (it's more than a hobby, it's a lifestyle) but I didn't have a blasted thing to write in there today but YEAH BOI. (I will show you my notes for proof.) also my waiters name was Jacob so Jacob if you're reading this i hope you find a bag of Doritos with no broken chips you are better than bread. read more

Metro Diner is a delight, I'm satisfied every time I come in. It is a typical diner style restaurant but the food is amazing. The staff is very kind, helpful, and very pleasant. Ask for Dana, she is a very sweet, helpful and attentive waitress. Each time I've tried something different but have never been disappointed. I've had the chicken and waffles with strawberry butter,talk about lick the plate chicken and waffles especially with the strawberry butter that goes with it. The special hot syrup is different and delicious twist to the normal chicken and waffles. I also have had the croissant French toast which is perfectly flaky and flavorful. My all time favorite there if you come during lunch is the bold city burger. The burger has cheese, bacon, sausage, and fried jalapeños. Did I say FRIED JALAPEÑOS!! So good. I would definitely recommend this place it's open all day until 9 for breakfast and they have specials written on the board as well as the staff mentioning it upon being seated. read more

Ok. This is definitely a diamond in the rough. We are from up in Hickory and were down in the area to pick something up. Saw the diner and needed some breakfast. WOW!! So glad we did. I've been all over the country and Chicken and waffles is always on my list. I've been to Maxine's in Indy, Chicago waffles and many other places and I think Metro Diner about the best I have had. Waffle was perfect and you get basic a half of a chicken. Wife got the chicken Benedict and she loved it. We are looking for an excuse to make the hour and 20 minute drive. Might just have to be for breakfast and that's it. read more

Not as good as overall score implies. Did not have a 4.5 star experience. Service was great even 5 stars. However food was marginal at best. Met some. Old friends there to touch base and get caught up. Kinda put a sour note to the evening. One friend wanted the club sandwich with no middle bread on whole wheat but got the standard club on toasted white....not good. They offered to fix but she decided to rebuild and accept bread. Turned out it was bland and salty as was the BLT my wife had. I had Shrimp and Grit Cakes. Turns out they were bland and not too good. The shrimp itself was ok but it was mostly like the dish was never seasoned. My other friend had a chicken sandwich that's he thought was good. Overall a big let down. Won't go back and won't recommend? The ice tea was great, nice and sweet. read more

This place was delicious. The waitress was super nice she made us some sweet and spicy sauce at the table and brought us some bread so we could try it. The good was great. It took no time to come out. The serving side was huge so I have more for in the morning. This place is a 10/10 I definitely recommend! read more

A real diner. At least to me, as it is open 24/7, has a huge menu, offers breakfast, lunch and dinner and you can order whatever is on the menu regardless of what time of day you are there. i would say it serves up American common or American comfort foods. The basics plus some. REMEMBER to look at the rear wall as they have a chalk-posted special board. It took me three visits before I noticed it, so it kind of sneaks up on you, especially after you have already ordered your meal(s). Agh! Service is fast and friendly. Servers treat you as a friend, along with being efficient and diligently taking down your substitutes or special requests. And the kitchen comes through quickly and the orders come in as you requested and hot. The location suffers being on that horribly busy section of Hwy 51/Pineville-Matthews Road, so exiting the parking lot is a right turn only situation. Entering you have to know where you are so you can get through the traffic into the center turn lane or into the right lane, depending on your direction of travel. Portions are very generous. Wife had their bacon club sandwich and we gaped at the 8 slices of bacon inside. I ordered the Metro Club and it was so thick with meat and cheese that I had to compress it to bite into it. Both of those sandwiches are a great deal to eat and delicious. Breakfasts are what I think breakfasts, American breakfasts, should be. Three egg omelets and you name what you want in them. Coffee continuously flows into your never empty cup. And...best of all: THEY SERVE REAL HASH BROWN POTATOES! Yes, a miracle now-a-days with restaurants offering pan fried chunks of potato but calling them hash browns. To me that is such a rip-off and those restaurants throw away lots of so-called hash browns every day. But not at Metro Diner where the hash browns are what they are called and are very good. You can tell that I really like hash browns. And you can order them as a side or with your side of French fries. A superlative option for a carbohydrate addict. Good place all around. As I work my way through the menu I can see the potential of more than three stars. read more

I usually order through doors dash and it is Always so wonderful!! I can't wait to eat in.

A solid choice for any meal, but I'd be remiss if I didn't tell you to get the chicken and waffles. Order it extra crispy and I promise you'll be in heaven! Hands down, best I've ever had! read more

Wow... Heck of a experience here... Also an easy 5 star review. We arrived here around 10:30am on a Saturday morning and the place was full. After giving our names we were about 3rd in line to be seated. There's a large beverage bar available and we made cups of coffee and hung out for about 5-10 minutes while waiting for our table. In no time at all we were seated and immediately our server stopped by and told us about the specials available that day. I looked at my menu and knew right away I was going to have a difficult time selecting my entree. Why so difficult? Well because there was a ton of delicious items to choose from. My friends were having the same problem. After a few minutes our server stopped by and asked if we were ready to order, we weren't. No problem, she offered to freshen our drinks, bring water, etc. and left us to decide what we were going to order. Eventually we were all ready to proceed and got our orders in and I took a moment to look around. The kitchen was behind where I was sitting so I had to turn around and look. It was an open air affair and they have a counter with stools available as well. If I had been by myself that's definitely where I would have been sitting. I will say from what I could see that the staff that was working in the kitchen knew what they were doing. They were hustling and running like a finely oiled machine. Also they were doing it quietly. No loud yelling or drama leaking into the dining room. After about 15 maybe 20 minutes our food arrived (again the place was full) and it looked awesome. I had a dish called the 'Breakfast Pie' which was loaded with eggs, cheese, mushrooms, onions, peppers and red skinned potatoes. I added bacon, and you can also add sausage or ham if you prefer. For the side I ordered home fries. This dish was incredible and I almost didn't finish it due to the huge portion. My friend Jessie ordered the dish called 'Yo Hala on the Square'. It comes with two slices of challah bread stuffed with a mixture of bananas, brown sugar, cream cheese and hazelnut syrup, prepared like French toast. This is then topped with with a blueberry strawberry compote and powdered sugar. It was a beast! Her husband Dave had the 'Blueberry Crepes' special. I'm not sure what was inside the crepes but they were also smothered with the same blueberry strawberry compote. All of these entrees were simply fantastic and photo's are enclosed. Service was also outstanding! This was definitely my favorite dining out experience on this trip to Charlotte. I see they have 2 locations up in Richmond Va so maybe I'll get lucky and they'll open a location in Hampton Roads in the future. read more

Metro Diner (Matthews) made a bad situation right for me. To make a long story short, I ordered their chicken plate, on my way home, about a month ago and the chicken was awful! After posting my complaint, a manager contacted me with apologies, etc. I appreciate their effort to right a misstep and I may go back (it's a long way from my home), but we'll see. Thanks for your kindness Metro Diner! read more

The food here is so delicious! After taking a ton of time to make my decision because everything sounded so good, I ended up going with the fruity waffle! The waffles here are soooooo good so I highly recommend them. The fruit was also super fresh, unlike a bunch of places that just give you frozen fruit or canned fruit with your waffles. I've previously had their chicken and waffles as well and that was super good too. This location has an outdoor area that is dog friendly. They were super nice and got us water for our pups as well. The customer service was phenomenal. Multiple people made sure that our meals and service was great. Not once did our waters get less than halfway full. We will definitely be returning here. I can't wait to try the rest of the menu! read more

I freakin love this place. Everything and I mean EVERYTHING is delicious. Not only that, the portions are huge and they are very reasonably priced. Another great thing is they run a very tight ship and the food always comes out FAST. We're serial brunchers and I love a unique avacado toast and Benedict as much as the next guy but sometimes you just want a good old fashioned simple down home breakfast. Today I was craving chicken and waffles. Forget those waffles sold with wings or chicken tenders, you get a half chicken (breast, wing, leg & thigh)! Now that's a whole lotta chicken so thankfully they allow you to do a quarter chicken and I always get white meat only (breast & wing). The waffles have powdered sugar an amazing strawberry butter. So yum! For the fried chicken they created sweet and spicy dipping sauce is a mix of Louisiana hot sauce and maple syrup. So good. They also have some bangin mimosas. Always a good choice. read more

Never paid this place much attention until my parents told me about it. Coming from NJ where diners are everywhere, I was excited to try it. I went for breakfast which may be the most popular time because there was a wait. The wait wasn't too long maybe 15-20 min which is average in my opinion. The atmosphere was casual and the menu plentiful including daily specials. I had eggs, home fries, sausage and a waffle which was all excellent as it took me back home to Jersey. I think on my next visit I'm going to bite the bullet and get the chicken and waffles as it looked so good coming to the table. My new go to Breakfast spot. read more

Always good service, delicious diner food and large selection to choose from! It's our 'go to' diner!

Back again for the amazing food and wonderful staff! Had the beef tips with mashed taters and broccoli and AMAZING! My wife had the Dijon chicken with mashed taters and broccoli and absolutely I love with it!!! Can always count on great food and great service! We-will-be-back!!!! read more

Today's my daughter's birthday so we were out of town. So decided to look up a breakfast place and forgo the hotel free breakfast. Best decision ever ! I looked at the menu and said let go here . We were greeted and seated promptly. ServiceI have to put this disclaimer in immediately. My family can be very difficult to handle with all the special requests that come in waves. For some reason we can't give them at once. It actually annoys me every time. However, our waiter Kieran (Spelled wrong ) did not even blink an eye. He handled our requests like he knew our playbook. I suggest you ask for him. Very pleasant and inviting . Not a long wait for the food. Food- I order the biscuits with gray and eggs. This was OUTSTANDING second to none. Not to heavy , delicious, homemade biscuits worth the trip just for this meal. My son had the cinnamon roll pancakes and his words verbatim- Best pancakes I ever had. I was a little offend since I felt like I was the pancake king. However, after a bite I couldn't argue . We had a side of home fries and this was don't judge a book by its cover. Presentation was rather plain but taste was not plain at all . Nothing left on the plate. Daughter had the chicken and biscuit and also loved it. She usually offers a bite but never offered anyone. She just kept saying so so good. Overall, a picky family was extremely extremely satisfied. Would love to come back soon if ever in the area again. Love this place . FYI - Owner works just as hard as the staff. Enough said!! read more
