Either location very good breakfast. The fried chicken and waffles are good and the fried chicken biscuit Benedict is my favorite. Service is fast and friendly. Hot food and coffee.thank you we will be back. read more

I went here this morning for breakfast while waiting for my pet groomers. The portions generous and price was fair. The staff was also nice. I didn't like the coffee though. read more

Never been disappointed. Brought a friend for their first time and they loved it. Always a good choice.

Went in with my daughter and right through the door the smell was heavenly. Was seated right away and the waiter came shortly afterwards. Having never eaten there before it took me a couple minutes to pick my food. We were there for breakfast. I'm vegetarian so it was a little difficult to find a meatless plate. Had the two eggs and hash browns with English muffin. The food didn't take long to come and was well prepared. It tasted great but I was a little disappointed that my choices were so limited. I would love to go back, I enjoyed what I had but with such a limited vegan/ vegetarian menu not sure I can justify a return. read more

Love metro! A locals favorite and always top notch, from food to service!! highly recommended

The chicken and waffles are amazing. My family and I love it and recommend it. The entrees are quite delicious. The service is very attentive and courteous. The establishment is clean and the staff does a great job. read more

I was really underwhelmed by my experience here. The service was awesome and our waitress was very attentive, but the food & coffee was sadly lacking. So 4-star service, but def 2-star on the food! The coffee was very bland and the egg, bacon, cheese croissant I got was big, but also bland (I added some hot sauce, which helped) w/the croissant being way too mushy. I got the cheese grits on the side because they came highly recommended by the waitress, but they were way too watery and the cheese was very clumpy. I LOVE grits, but these were just not good and lacked the texture that grits should have. All in all, I don't know that I would be back. The place was packed, so obviously people love this place, I just didn't have an experience here foodwise (especially for the price) to come back. read more

ErmaGERD, O.M.to the flippin do this place has become a favorite if not my #1 recommendation for breakfast hands down. Make sure you don't miss the the specials board or ask what the specials are Hands down, my favorite breakfast spot in all of Charlotte. It kills me that some people would wait up to and over an hour for bacon and eggs when you could go anywhere else or make it at home... Proof in the pudding the breakfast innovations like strawberry butter and stuffed waffles you really can't get anywhere else. The price point is more than fair when comparing to the sub par competition. I absolutely love it here and as busy as they are the service each visit has taken pride in their work, prompt fast, friendly and suggestive. I wish every restaurant could hire the management team here to train their service on the basics that's what I think of this place. For their volume of business and being able to push out quality food, the kitchen staff - I salute you. I have a passion for cooking and can definitely see the head chef does as well and it shows in the precision and speed read more

Family returned after 2yr break due to change in food quality. Glad we gave it a second try! Our server Jon B. Was excellent. He reminded me of what excellent service from the days where server smiled, provided witty conversation, perfected our order and checked on us regularly (w/o overdoing it). Our food was also great! Ordered Chicken & waffle. Waffles were golden brown, fluffy and flavorful. Chicken tenders were crispy and juicy. Didn't realize I was stuffed until I took a break, after eating half my meal!!! Will definitely return. read more

Metro Diner - American Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Chicken and Waffles are a must!!! This Metro Diner is always consistent. There is normally a wait for a table and the food is always good. I've had several items off the menu but I definitely recommend you have the Chicken and Waffles at least once. My favorite part is the hot sauce syrup they make for you at the table. My mom loves their grits and I give them major props for that because grits ain't easy and especially making them for the masses. I really love the self serve drink station they have up front for the waiting area. This a great way to keep customers happy while waiting for a table. The menu at Metro is very extensive and I'm excited to try some of the other items they have available like the cinnamon roll pancake. read more

Metro Diner - Huevos Rancheros - American Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

So I'm gonna caveat this that food-wise I'd give this place 4 stars, but the service and the friendliness of the staff really were amazing when I went here. They were attentive and absolutely showed what great service is, despite the fact that there was a pandemic. This place did a good job from what I remember social distancing and it helped that I went during a weekday morning so less likely to be crowded. I got the chicken and waffles because I haven't had it in so long since I was in San Diego at Hash House a go go. This place hit the spot with the waffles just being erfectly crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy on inside. With the fried chicken giving the contrast to the sweet flavor of the waffles and syrup combination with a more savory flavor, it packed quite a flavor combination. Likewise, the fried chicken was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. It was quite a large portion for about $14 so I ended up only eating half. It's definitely worth the value and especially if you're starving! I also used a coupon from a previous visit for this so it helped take off a few dollar :) read more

Metro Diner - Chicken and waffles! $15 - American Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

I love this diner! I have had almost all of the menu. In my opinion ordering wings or fried chicken here is a must. Very very good, well done, crispy , not greasy, flavorful. Breakfast for kids huge portions an adult can easily eat and be satisfied. My daughter loves their pancakes, I loved their scrambled eggs. I must say I wouldn't order the mimosas again... to me they were their weakest menu item. Such good wings and dressing. waffles are yummy too. Great service, always, cute atmosphere. You should check it out. read more

Metro Diner - Yummmmmmmm - American Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Great experience. Came here for a early lunch. Was told it would be a 35 minute wait but we maybe waited 10 minutes. We got a cozy booth and was helped right away. I got the fried cod with french fries and a side salad. The cod was so tender and the breading was light. The tartar sauce was so good!!!! The side salad is a good portion plus it comes with a boiled egg! The fries were nice and crispy. My husband got the western omelette with fruit and hash browns and he loved it. Overall, great experience and we can't wait to come back. read more

I love this diner! I tried it for the first time at a Yelp event last year. It was so good that I had to come back. It took me a while, but it was awesome the second time too! We had to wait just a few minutes to get a table at 11:30 on a Saturday. I had to get the chicken and waffles again -- they are the best I've ever had. The strawberry butter is a great addition and the chicken is so juicy and flavorful. We also got a pineapple french toast which was a special. It was stuffed with cream cheese, pineapple, and a brown sugar glaze. It was incredible. The service is amazing here too. They are very attentive and you get your food pretty fast. They are more than happy to provide recommendations. This is definitely a must try! They are doing some cool things with diner food and I'll be back again. read more

Terrible service Attached screenshots Do not let Laura serve you in this restaurant Unprofessional, rude, and sarcastic I need some serious coaching on how to handle client conversations or miscommunications because at the end of the day I am the customer and you are the employee. I have always had great service at this location and this is the first time I felt disrespected as well as my mother. I always appreciate people in this industry because I know how challenging the job can be, especially after Covid and I always tip very well and this is the first time in a very, very long time I did not want to leave a tip for someone, but yet I still did even with very, very poor service. read more

Huge portion. Decent price. Taste is good. Service is very good! Make sure to order the chicken and waffles. That's feeds 2 to 3.

I always enjoy a meal at a Metro Diner. This location was nice because they offered outdoor seating, which is good bc I'm still not comfortable dining indoors at restaurants right now. We got a huge breakfast spread and I especially enjoyed the avocado toast because it was chock full of avocado on slices of really hearty bread. It made me feel full without making me feel like I overdid it first thing in the morning. Highly recommend! read more

I was craving a waffle and chicken and my yelp search led me to here. I'm so glad it did! The wait was under 30 mins, which you can't beat on Sunday afternoon. All the staff had on masks and the servers had on gloves. Tables were spaced out enough for social distancing. Once we ordered our food it came out in no more than 15 minutes and it was soo good! So boom, they have this strawberry butter with real strawberries and it was amazing on top of my chicken and waffles. The breading on the chicken was amazing and sooo flavorful. The food was so hot coming out and their spicy syrup sauce was the perfect added touch. If you haven't been here, you need to try it ASAP because it is amazing! You won't be upset once you leave here. You'll def have leftovers and they're mimosas are under $3! So next time you want brunch, check out this place !! read more

First time trying them. I had the veggie omelette and Cinnabon style kid's silver dollar pancakes. Delicious

The food and atmosphere were good, but our waitress disappeared on us after she took our order. I had to flag someone down to get condiments for my burger. Water was never refilled and we had to ask another waitress for our check. read more

Ordered takeout (iron city meatloaf w 2 sides) for first time from this location. The food tasted good, but portions were much smaller than expected. They didn't even fill the container half way with the sweet potato mash. Very disappointed since this was a first visit too. Lots of other options in the area. read more

AMAZING! Pros: Friendly host was polite & gave us a realistic expectation of the wait time. We arrived on Saturday morning around 9:45 and waited about 10-15 min. Our waitress, Tia, was great! She was attentive and friendly and shared her recommendations. Chicken & waffles is the best my boyfriend has ever had! (That speaks volumes). Eggs Benedict was delicious! OJ & pineapple mimosas did not disappoint! Cons: I have none! We will definitely be back because there are so many other menu options that looked amazing! read more

My visit to Metro Diner (pre-covid) was great! The food and the service definitely made me look forward to my next visit. My girlfriends and I ordered the Chicken and Waffle meal..and woah!! It is so much food. The chicken was seasoned so well and perfectly fried. The waffle was like a cake and paired with the strawberry butter and syrup...game changer! Our waitress was so sweet and accommodating. She even made us their sweet and spicy sauce tableside. Service was prompt and we left with smiles on our faces. Can't wait to go back! read more

Family favorite we go here at least once a month service is good and the food NEVER disappoints!

Metro Diner is the sort of place I've been looking for for a long while. When you don't want to go all the way into Uptown for Midnight, I can head here to Metro and be just as pleased with the food. I stopped in Sunday morning before the after-church rush started and had a comfy seat at the counter. Facing into the kitchen, I was able to watch the food being prepared, see how clean and organized it is, and watch the meals be finalized before being brought out to diners. Interesting! I stuck with simple stuff, the corned beef hash and poached eggs. They were *perfectly* poached and the hash was much more beef than potatoes. A nice large portion! Toast was done nicely and my meal was excellent. Great service, too. I'll be looking forward to my return to Metro. read more

Met a good friend for breakfast. The staff was so nice and friendly, the food was excellent. We stayed longer than normal because we wanted to catch up with each other: The staff and manager was so nice and didn't rush us out of the door to turn the table. They made sure our drinks were filled and asked if we needed anything. Great service, friendly atmosphere for family and friends outings. read more

I was hesitant at first, but the overwhelmingly positive reviews made me give it a try! We came for brunch and decided to try Metro's signature chicken and waffles. I have never been so sad to run out of chicken before in my life! They teach you how to mix the spicy maple dipping sauce at your table, the chicken is fried fresh and to perfection and the fluffy yet crispy waffle with the strawberry butter was phenomenal! I don't get to go to NC often, but this makes me eager for the next trip! Seriously, my partner and I were like "Nooooo, I'm out of chicken!" read more

The best way to describe the Metro Diner is think of waffle house, but on steroids! Everything in this place is made to order and is outstanding! I know all of the reviews are constantly droning on about the chicken and waffles, and this review won't be any different! I won't repeat what many have already said in their reviews, but I will say that I loved the hot syrup and the fact that you actually get half of a chicken instead of a couple of wings, which seems to be the en vogue way to serve chicken and waffles nowadays, was a huge bonus! There was a bit of a wait, but that was because we went on a Sunday right around brunch time, which is clearly a popular time frame for them. Despite the wait, we were very pleased with the service we received and will definitely be making this one of our regular spots here in Charlotte! read more

Thank you Yelp for another great find. Perfect Over Easy eggs at 3 in the afternoon is a rare find. Blueberry Lemon Belgian Waffle was on special with a wonderful crisp texture and not too sweet.
