    Hubby and I finally tried Metro Diner and I'm mad it took so long! I'm also mad I forgot to write this review because I don't remember what hubby had but I do remember having the Fish & Chips and it was delicious. I know he enjoyed his food, too, just can't remember what it was. The atmosphere is very warm and welcoming and the servers are sweet and helpful. Next time I go back I'll make sure to write an updated review because we've gone twice now and I can't remember anything but the fish & chips and a flight of mimosas. Maybe that's the problem! Just found pics of the last time we went and apparently we had a cup of soup that I'm sure was good too. :-)

    Tangy chicken was okay and tasted like minute rice. Boyfriend for the Meat Lover's Scramble Bowl said the hollandaise sauce was too lemony and didn't work with the meal. Mollie wasn't the most attentive or friendly with us, yet asked us to leave her a good review so she can get an incentive or something like that, she spoke more to us in that interaction than in the service itself. Sat outside because inside was busy. We probably won't return.

    First time to this Metro Diner. We had the fish and chips and I must say one of the best I've had. Two large pieces, perfectly battered and fried, and extra flaky inside. Service was excellent even at prime time lunch hour. We will definitely be back.

    Metro diner is always a great place for a meal. Breakfast is always available - they also offer a good selection of burgers, chicken dishes - even chicken and waffles! They have salads, ribs, shrimp and grits and so far everything we've tried has been quite satisfactory. The staff is always knowledgeable-friendly-fast. The coffee is great! So if you're feeling a bit peckish- stop in!

    Very friendly staff! The food is delicious. It was my first time in and the staff were very friendly. They recommend different options and helped me decide ( the menu I had something for everyone ). I will definitely come back. Plus $11 mimosas flights

    Biscuits and gravy with hot sauce

    Stopped in for breakfast. I was seated immediately and placed my order of biscuits and gravy along with eggs and home fried potatoes. The biscuits and gravy were fantastic! The eggs were done perfectly as over easy. The potatoes were OK I really would prefer just the real potatoes cut up and served rather than the prepackaged cubes that are being used by most restaurants today service is excellent.

    Amazing service and food was fucking delicious . Very ambiance place as well.I recommend this place

    Two chicken and Waffle Plates! It was delicious!

    Excellent friendly service and great food! We had the fried chicken and waffles and were amazed at the size of the plate! We especially enjoyed the strawberry butter on the waffle and the sauce that's a mix of hot sauce and syrup to dip our chicken in. Waitress was too notch and friendly. The atmosphere is what you would expect in a diner. Lots of options offered of the menu. We are from NC and enjoyed it very much! We recommend this place!

    The BEST diner in Greenwood. Line was out the door this morning but we were able to belly up to the bar area right away. Metro diner has the best prices for bloody mary's around. Our waitress Bonnie provide excellent service to us. She was prompt to serving us, she was super friendly and was able to answer my questions and provide recommendations. We got to watch the kitchen staff put in work which was so fun! They did an amazing job, they were quick, clean and communicative. Well done, looking forward to dining here again soon. Cheers!

Same great staff, same cool space, same open kitchen where a party of one like me can grab a counter seat and watch the chefs do their thing. I've honestly always enjoyed that part of the experience. Today I had the avocado toast with feta and an egg on top, and it totally hit the spot. Earlier this week I tried one of the newer menu items -- fried chicken with mashed potatoes and gravy, plus a sample of jalapeño cornbread and Asian slaw. Incredible comfort food. And as someone who normally isn't much of a slaw person, I was surprised by how much I loved it. They also tried to tempt me with the roast beef special, which honestly looked great, but at 10:30 in the morning I just couldn't fully commit to roast beef yet. Maybe next time. The new name is a nice tribute to the owner's mother, Arleen, but thankfully it still feels like the Milktooth so many of us have come to enjoy over the years. Definitely worth checking out if you haven't been in awhile.

The avocado toast with salmon was really good. The flavors were spot on and as with the other food, very fresh and well prepared. The brisket burger patty melt was also done perfectly.

    **Bluebeard... wtf**…read more Bluebeard has been on my Indianapolis restaurant list since I moved here from Chicago in 2021. I've found some really great restaurants here over the years, so I was especially excited to finally make it to Bluebeard. Each year during Devour, my husband and I pick a restaurant for each other as a surprise, and this year I chose Bluebeard. We had a 6:15 reservation and arrived about 10 minutes late due to traffic. I apologized, and we were promptly seated. Unfortunately, that's where the experience started to go downhill. Our server took about 15 minutes to come over, and although our appetizer arrived quickly (chips&dip), our drinks took another 15 minutes. I held off on ordering our meal because I wanted to do the Devour menu with the wine pairing. The food & drinks was a mixed bag: - Beauregard cocktail: 10/10 - Chips & avocado ranch dip: 8/10 - Crudo: 9/10 - Smoked fish dip: 4/10 - Mushroom ravioli: 8/10 - Short Rib Ragu: 3/10 - Chocolate crème brûlée: 3/10 There were definitely some great dishes, but the slow service and inconsistent food were disappointing for a restaurant with this reputation. The biggest issue came toward the end of the meal. The hostess came to our table and told us we needed to hurry because she needed the table for another reservation. **We were still waiting for dessert.** I explained that the service had been very slow and that we were waiting on our desserts. Our server apologized and said the hostess likely didn't realize what had been happening and was under stress. I completely understand that Devour can bring in more traffic than usual, but that's also something a restaurant at this level needs to be prepared to handle. We shouldn't have been made to feel rushed when the delays were not on our end. I really wanted to love Bluebeard after having it on my list for five years, but unfortunately, it didn't live up to my expectations. For comparison, some of my favorite Indy restaurants for both food and service are Bocca, Union 50, Matador, Rosemary & Olive, Tinker Street, Strange Bird, Delicia, and Bodhi. Maybe we caught Bluebeard on an off night, but for me, this experience fell short.

Self-serve coffee with all the fixings is a nice touch, and the service was friendly and welcoming. Fun atmosphere, great food, solid portions--definitely will be back.

    Love Handle is in the best neighborhood right on Mass Ave! It's super close to amazing shopping,…read moreand the vibe inside is vintage diner with an artsy twist. The food just needed a little fine-tuning to really shine. The catfish seemed to have a beer-battered coating that felt a little soft and held onto some extra moisture instead of having that classic light crunch. I would love a bit more flavor baked right into the waffle and biscuit dough--though the gravy flavor was definitely a win! Also, the grits lean heavy into jalapeno notes rather than a creamy, cheesy base. It's such a cute venue with great energy, and a few little kitchen adjustments could make it amazing!
