Bartender was 5 stars but the kitchen staff was 1 today. 11/15/2020. Had wonderful service but omelette was brown and over done. Hashbrowns hardly existed on the plate. read more

Great place. Great food. Chicken and waffles were really good. Service at the bar was outstanding.

Absolutely horrible service waited 20min to be seated with no others Customers waiting 730 am then finally seated waited a additional 20 min for waitress that never came managed nowhere to be found just walked out never again !! First watch had us seated and eating in 15min read more

We were seated & waited on quickly as they were not that busy after lunch hour mid week. Food was delicious & served hot. Server was attentive, efficient & friendly. I'm sure we'll go back soon!! read more

Metro Diner isn't your classic diner experience. My family has been a couple of times and we've had some hits and some misses on both visits. Even though diners tend to excel with breakfast foods we have found them to be inconsistent whereas the lunch and dinner options have all been pretty good. Prices are also not comparable to a typical old school diner, this is more like a casual chain restaurant in terms of price points ($10-$15 per person). This isn't a restaurant that we frequent by any means but it's a fun change of pace occasionally. read more

Well I made a quick stop and apparently our server didn't noticed I guess she was so busy but the food made me feels sick afterwards. Sorry but probably won't be back. P.s I know they did they best it's just not for me. Thank you. read more

Our neighbor recommended this restaurant so we decided to give it a try. We showed up on a Monday morning and the place was about a third full. I ordered the biscuits and gravy which was very good. My wife also liked her meal but she prefers a thick cut bacon instead of thin type they serve. The only minor (and I do mean minor) was our server could have been more attentive. However, since other servers cleared dishes it wasn't a real issue. I would recommend this restaurant for breakfast. read more

My mom, son and I were in town for a few days for a little family getaway. We were greeted and seated right away. My son still sits in a highchair and they were very accommodating to him. Our waitress, Rosie, was so friendly and welcoming, she made us feel right at home. She was very familiar with the menu when we had a few questions about what breakfast items to order. We decided to order Huevos Rancheros w/ a side of extra crispy hash browns and The Bissell Breakfast. The food did not disappoint and the quantity was great. The manager was also there and made sure to come around and ask how we enjoyed our food and the service. We felt like she genuinely cared that we enjoyed ourselves. We loved it so much we came back the next day for lunch and had another great meal and service. read more

This is actually 2 reviews in one. First two visits were for breakfast. One was bacon and eggs and the other trip was Eggs Benedict. Both with hash browns. Everything was perfect, and I was excited to find a spot here in Tennessee that actually served hash browns NOT in a casserole. The first two trips were 5 stars easily. Loved it so much I came back Ordered Eggs Benedict again, and my two sons ordered sides of hash browns (they had tried the new Krispy Creme right before coming here). 10 minutes goes by and the waiter comes back to say the order was lost and what was it we wanted, he apologized and blamed himself. 40+ years of management I know mistakes are going to happen and it is how you handle them that matters. Order comes out 10 minutes later. Hash browns were not crispy for my boys and they were soggy. My poached eggs were very over done, to the point the waiter walked by and noticed it. He offered to get me more eggs but I had eaten most of them and it is not his fault. I asked him if some of the kitchen staff was in training and he said no. Bad experience but hey these things happen, Trip #4 was last night because my youngest son wanted to try the Philly Cheese Steak. Wife ordered Eggs Benedict, older son ordered a Monte Cristo Sandwich, younger son got his cheese steak, and I wanted one of the specials off the board. Waitress informs me the board is wrong, those specials are from the day before and they didn't change it, Now I am thinking this is not good. Instincts were right. My wife's Eggs Benedict had over cooked eggs and soggy, greasy hash browns. Both sons were happy with their meals. I ordered the Fish and Chips special, fish and shrimp together, but got just regular fish and chips. Fish was soggy and breading was lacking any flavor, and they didn't put any tarter sauce on the plate. Fries were excellent. yeah last two were one star visits, so overall a three star average. Will I come back? No the last two visits were enough. If you come here I hope you have a five star visit, this place has so much potential. read more

Definitely get your money's worth. It's nearly impossible to eat all the food that comes out to the table! The servers are very friendly and you get seated rather quickly even if there is a wait. My only tip would be the Breakfast Pie. My sister ordered this and the liquid from eggs was overbearing and the food was swimming in it. ( I wouldn't order that). Other than that definitely eat here, will be back ! read more

Well i kept on debating whether to try this place or not and i finally came. It was a busy Sunday, we arrived about 11 and put our name on the list, was told about 45 min wait. We waited pretty much right in front of the hostess stand and 45 min passed so we asked about how many people is in front of us and they said they called our names 10 min ago and the hostess was so rude when she came and got us and said i went up to you guys and said our party name twice! First of all there was 4 of us so yall said our names and came up to us and none of us heard you or seen you???! No thats impossible! And then she knew we was waiting so why the hell didn't you get our attention. I was so annoyed but we finally sat down. Ordered our drinks and food took over 45 min for our food. My pancakes was so flat and hard, my food was basic and then my toast was burnt like i could of threw it at someone and knock them out! My friend had crabcakes benedict and it was so salty! Ordered belgium waffles and it was overcooked. Lets just say i will NOT be coming back! After i left here i still had room for another meal elsewhere. read more

Ok so I went to the Metro Diner on its opening weekend and I have to say I was impressed.... I have now gone back a few times and each time the food quality and quantity has gone down hill . I went last night to the Diner it was around 5:30 . I ordered the fish and chips. When I received my food I had a gigantic plate of fries and four tiny " Fish Fingers ". The fish was hot the fries were cold . I finished off the fish in a few bites and still had a heap of fries . Felt like I was paying good money for a plate of fries not fish and chips . Basically it was all chips and no fish . This is my third try after the grand opening weekend ... last time I was there I got cold chicken ..... at this point I don't believe I'll go back . read more

Packed places, waited 15 minutes to get a table, quick service and the best thing was how amazing the food was. The San Francisco Benedict was DELICIOUS, the chicken & waffles was amazing, and the Charles shrimp and grits was absolutely mouth watering. read more

So like everything needs salt and pepper. I've eaten there several times and this time i got the pot roast as a to go order. Baby i hope you love salt cause this is a salt bomb. You can't taste anything but salt. Everything is super duper bland then random salt explosions like wtf read more

Great food, huge portions. Love the old style New York diner feel. And all their breakfast items are so tasty!

We went on Sunday morning and expected a long wait, ended up being over 30 minutes. There were lots of wait seating available. The biggest reason for this post is to let management know of the outside door issue. The door slams extremely loud and hard. If you're sitting on the wall of the door, it is substantially irritating. I would love to suggest for the management team to sit on the benches and do experience it. I would suggest putting the door softener cushions. I think it would go a long way. I look forward to coming back and seeing that it got repaired. The menu looks good and the facility clean. The staff seemed friendly. A little flustered but they were extreme busy. This is all being written before we actually got a table. read more

Metro Diner - Door - Diners Near Me - Murfreesboro, Tennessee

Oh my the best biscuits and gravy breakfast I ever had in my life. A little pricey but worth it.

I am saddened to write this review because when I visited this chain in Birmingham, I was ecstatic and overjoyed about my experience, but I couldn't say the for this experience. I brought my family in for brunch and the service we receive was absolutely horrible. We had Jayden (or Jalen - not sure of the pronunciation) and after taking our orders, we did not see him again. He did not come check to refill our drinks, ask if our food was okay, or to even see if our food came out. We had to ask other waitress for items that we needed. Not only was the service not good, our order was messed up three times. Not providing with the right order and not making it the way it was specified. Overall was not a good experience for my family and I. read more

Your manger was very rude. Your kitchen was unorganized today. Most restaurants server help one another with run food when on expediting the food. Will probably not return to this restaurant until you fix your problems that is @ location read more

This place is just like the fake place in Portlandia. Food is mediocre. Wait staff is kind of strange. read more

Food is great, very loud though. Be prepared to wait for a seat. Great service

So not impressed from the moment I walked in the door. Was not greeted until i made eye contact with tge bartender (5 minutes). I order and my server informed me that they don't give drinks in glass because they don't have them (not true). I asked for 2 entrees, the chicken and waffles as well as the roasted turkey plate. Was told they ran out of turkey. The waffles came to the table and I had to wait for the syrup. The kitchen ........ I was very set back by the fact that the entire kitchen staff had no masks which is ok except they were yelling back and forth to each other about orders while holding food in front of themselves. I noticed the expo behind the line have on gloves half the time while all but one of the five touched there clothes or face at some point during my visit. Not that I haven't heard it before but cursing coming from the line while children are in the restaurant. All things considered I almost walked out but im glad i didn't because the food was great. Sorry you guys never followed up to address this. read more

Went for breakfast and when we arrived it was packed, i was told it would only be about a 10-15 minute wait for 3 but it ended up being a 30 minute wait. Once we finally got seated we were ready to order but it took awhile for us to get greeted. Once we were greeted we gave the server our drink order and wanted to go ahead and order our food as well but she told us let her grab our drinks first. The food took about 45 minutes to come and when we asked the server she mentioned something about the kitchen being behind. We had very high expectations for the food considering how packed the place was but when it finally arrived all 3 of our meals had cold under cooked hash browns, and hard rubbery pancakes. My friend and boyfriends had one pancake that was not even edible it was so hard. My friends meal was also missing her toast and when they brought it out they brought her the white instead of wheat. The eggs were also very dry and cold and tasted as if they've been sitting out for hours. The only semi good item in my meal was the sausage. We were expecting a lot better from this restaurant but sad to say it was not worth the wait or the price. Everything was dry and cold. read more

Wait time for food and a seat is absurd. The kid at the host stand gave us a 30 min wait. It took an hour. Now we have waited over an hour for food. They need to fix this place before we come back. read more

You know when you walk in somewhere and it smells like home??? That's how it feels here. Meal portions are huuuuge, I always leave happily full of good warm food. I usually get the turkey plate for lunch or the eggs benedict for breakfast, either way request Destiny as your server, she's the sweetest and has excellent recommendations. One of the best spots in Murfreesboro! read more

Super busy usally a wait But.. The food is well worth it! The Chicken & waffles is awesome! Monti Criso Sandwich was good. Service all depends I'm sure they are so busy and get overwhelmed. Have never been there when it wasn't full. Super affordable too! read more

I seriously do not understand why the positive reviews. Paid for? Compensated for? Who knows but this place was awful!! The server smelled like she smoked 20 packs of cigarettes before coming to serve me. The menu is a diabetes over load no wonder everyone in the South is over weight!! I got an omelette with bacon and their famous "biscuit" all were terrible. Dry, over cooked eggs, bacon was the worst I ever had. I then asked for an ice coffee thinking it would come black and I would add my 2 cream. Nope. It came with tons of milk, sugar and vanilla sweetener. Seriously? Then last I thought this was a locally owned restaurant, nope ANOTHER chain! Will never go back and trust me not worth read more

Sooo good! We went for brunch on Saturday morning, that being said, be prepared to wait! Totally worth the wait, $2.99 mimosas and a San Francisco eggs Benedict, so good! My boyfriend got the Bissell Breakfast and we totally could have split it, so much food! Seeing Guy Fieri on the wall was super fun too, I see why this place was on his show! read more

Oh my gosh- as we returned from a quick trip to Nashville we stopped by this amazing little cafe. Service was wonderful , food was "southern delicious " if only they could reduce the calories - LOL. Had their Shrimp and grits; best I ever had. Was enough for two when served. This will be a regular stop, when back in town! read more

Today we ate at the Metro Diner in Murfreesboro, Tn. Great atmosphere, friendly staff, decent price and pretty good food. We both had the Broccoli and cheese soup and a 3 cheese grilled cheese sandwich. The soup and sandwich were both very good. We will be back. read more

Really love the food and service here , would suggest this for any time of day .breakfast, lunch or dinner , even have a cocktail

If you're looking to sit without a wait, 3:30 on Sunday was great! First time visit and we will be back without a doubt! The service was fabulous and the food was amazing! The portions are HUGE, very appropriate for the price. Lots of diner style staples but so many choices with a unique twist. The Monte Crisco was perfection, the meatloaf and mashed potatoes were delicious comfort food, the southern eggs Benedict special was a cool twist and the shrimp and grits were crazy flavorful! Based on the reviews it seems like they may have off days, but we experienced nothing but awesome. Highly recommend giving it a try! read more

When my family and I heard about this place, we were immediately drawn in by the number of reviews on the chicken and waffles. We first tried that dish and were savoring over their strawberry butter and special sauce for the chicken ( that consisted of maple syrup and louisiana hot sauce ). This dish, the chicken parmesean, is by far one of their best of the menu. The chicken is savory and tender. The pasta is cooked perfectly. The garlic bread, seasoned with herbs and spices compliments the dish beautifully. Some restaurants have good food but bad service but Metro Diner does not disappoint. The service and home environment makes the meals and your experience so much better! read more

Metro Diner - chicken parmesan - Diners Near Me - Murfreesboro, Tennessee

I've been here twice so far. Once for breakfast and once for lunch. The service was good. The food was simply ok. Honestly it kind of reminded me of a more expensive Denny's. Honestly I don't mind Denny's but for the price you pay here I expected a bit more. It was very busy on both occasions and it's fairly new so I think I'll give them a few months before I try them again and give them some time to work out their processes and techniques. Everything seemed a bit rushed and over cooked. read more

My wife and I visited Metro Diner for the very first time last Friday, and were very impressed!! She enjoyed her "Bold City Burger" and I enjoyed my "Corned Beef Hash with Poached Egg!" We will definitely plan to drive over to Murfreesboro again to eat at the Metro Diner! read more

Some of the best food in town. Service tends to be lacking and very slow though. They're almost always really busy and not so friendly typically. Otherwise, it would be 5 stars and my favorite restaurant read more

Good food. Always a wait so we DoorDashed. This specific time is was over salted, not a little like inedible. However, this is the only time we experienced this problem. Food is always fabulous. read more

Well that was dang good. Being from up north I miss diners. Nice clean place. Good menu selection. The server who waited on me at the bar was great. I got a bacon cheeseburger and fries. That was tasty and everything was right. Will definitely be back. read more

This was the third day back serving in the dining room since the Covid 19 virus hit. We went in about 10:30 this morning, I ordered an Omelet and my wife ordered a Burger. We both ordered home fries for a side and we sent them back for being burned. I also had a biscuit and had to send it back, should have sent it to the Predators for a hockey puck. The second one was better. I certainly hope that they get better as they are open longer and back to full strength. Not sure if we'll try it again. The three stars were generous. A server should always look at the food they are delivering to the customer. If they can't see burned food, they should find a new vocation. The server was Halie 5054. read more

Love this place !!!! Great food and service every time we come in which is once a week
