    This place is solid with hot and fresh food and very good customer service. I got the fish and chips and my wife got chicken sandwich with onions. Everything was solid and gotta try those onion rings next time. Our waitress kept checking on us and refilling our glasses. I love you get everything on the menu matter what time you arrive. I will keep this in my rotation for future experiences.

    We recently ate at Metro Diner after attending a local event with our daughter and daughter-n-law. While I typically prefer eating at locally owned, non-chain establishments, this was convenient and we had not tried it. The diner is huge with a plethora of seating, and we were seated immediately. Our server arrived within several minutes to get our order and returned in a timely manner with the drinks. Everyone in our party opted for breakfast options, despite it being mid-afternoon when we arrived. My review can only speak to the breakfast options. Everyone was pleased with their food, and I would compare the quality to that of the average diner experience. The portions were huge. One person in our party got the mimosa flight and they were just okay in my opinion. Our server was attentive, keeping our drinks topped off regularly. It appears that Metro is a well-loved spot as it remained very busy during our entire visit. Parking is plentiful as the diner is located in a strip mall.

    Metro Diner never disappoints! I ordered the San Francisco Benedict and it was fantastic, perfectly cooked eggs, rich hollandaise, and great flavor all around. The portion was generous and everything came out hot and fresh. On top of that, our waitress was amazing, friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. Great food and great service make this a place I'll definitely be coming back to. Highly recommend.

    We stopped into this diner after The PUG FEST at the Kentucky Fairgrounds to grab dinner. As per my usual, I had breakfast for dinner (gravy w/ biscuit, eggs, hash browns, sausage). Right up there with the Waffle House albeit a bit more $$$. My daughter-in-law opted to include a Mimosa flight with her entree. Chicken and waffles seemed to be the most ordered entree judging from the tables nearby. Clean restaurant with comfortable seating and prompt service.

We were greeted by a friendly and efficient server. I ordered the double quarter pounder. I got mine sans lettuce and pickle. The default cheese on the burger was American but I was able to get mine with Provolone. You can also get Pepper Jack or Swiss. My burger was excellent, made with quality meat. The seasoned fries were very good with a definite note of garlic. The size of the fries order is plenty petite though. Shake flavors are limited to chocolate, strawberry and vanilla. I ordered a chocolate shake and it was pleasantly thick and tasty. We also got some oatmeal raisin and chocolate chip cookies to take home. They were of the most and chewy varietal (I prefer crispy) but were still good. Burger Boy has a digital station that allows you to select music to be played in the restaurant. I do need to point out that the price for a single patty burger was well over $10 so prices are high. But sure, if I was in the neighborhood and was craving a burger, I'd come back.

    It's been a while since we visited Silver Dollar, I'm talking old ownership, pre-Covid long time…read moreago. And let me tell you, it's obvious there's new ownership, new style, new menu and all for the better. The decor was giving a Bakersfield California vibe right in Louisville Kentucky. Visually appealing, honky Tonk with a small splash of humor. The day we went, was a sunny spring, I preferred indoor - we were sat at a super spacious booth. Menu is one page but they absolutely nailed it. He ordered a Hemingway. It came in a beautiful copper coupe with a dehydrated orange slice. Classy, cool with a kick. We started with the Mexican Hot Cheese dip. It's not your typical queso -- this had chilis, onions, garlic, jalapeños as toppings and it was delicious. It was accompanied by house made chips. The cheese though... Hubs had fried catfish with the Nashville Hot option and I had a Caesar salad with fried chicken. Fried Nashville hot catfish verdict - Very good, very spicy, very crispy. Caesar with chicken...I stole a crouton off the top, "that garlic crouton was amazing, I could eat those like a snack." The salad itself was divine. The dressing is light, you can taste the green chilis without the spicy kick. I could eat this salad every day! Of course we had to try the Mexican crème brûlée. Super creamy, chocolatey with spice custard with a delicate brûlée sugar on top, garnished with fresh strawberries. Same restaurant, new flavors better service, awesome experience.

First off - I love this local gem, and I think it was just an odd/off night. It started with a scary trip to the ladies room, and it was just a mess. The first part of our evening (meeting friends) was great. Cocktails were tasty and the music was vibing. Fried pickles were AWESOME. At one point, the bartender changed the record and it became crazy loud - we literally couldn't hear the person 2 feet away speaking. A member of our party got up and asked the bartender if he could turn it down (asked politely), and was ignored. Literally ignored - bartender looked at my friend and the just walked away (and not to turn down the music). Next cocktail was AWFUL... food came out, and it was hot but nothing great; fries were oily. Churros were tough and overcooked as well. Our server (a younger woman) was attentive and friendly, and that was the highlight of our visit. She did turn down the music when we asked (and after another table I believe also asked). It wasn't a busy night, and I love the vinyl vibe and cool venue - we will come back and try again, but when 3 cocktails, an appetizer, and entree cost close to $100 before tip (for 2 - our friends were the same, so $200 for a table), you really need to be on point and provide solid service.

Since we went on a night with an activity, there was a bit of a festive atmosphere and patrons were likely all hanging around for a couple of hours.
