Metro Diner - I've tried a different plate every time I've come and I can honestly say I am NEVER disappointed. Way to go Metro Diner! - Diners Near Me - Newark, Delaware

Went to one on Harmony Rd location. Staff was friendly and service was excellent. Food was delicious and fast too.

We love this place normally but please do not go there in the winter !! They keep it so cold it's uncomfortable. Went there last week and it was so cold that by the time they carried my food to the table it was not edible. Tasted like it just came out of tte refrigerator. When the waitress asked if I wanted a box and I told her the issue - manager came over and said they'd cook another one for me - which made no sense because it was still FREEZING in there. Restaurants- a customer should NOT have to eat breakfast in a down filled winter coat and still be freezing/uncomfortable. We will be back in the Spring. Wonder how many customers never come back for this reason? But if they don't complain it will not change. read more

It was so good we forgot to take pictures. We got the chocolate chip pancakes and bacon, As well as eggs potatoes and toast. I'll definitely take someone that visited out of town it was easy and nice inside. read more

Surprised to find such a wonderful breakfast spot in this immediate area. Stopped on a whim and we do not regret it! Had the Huevos Rancheros and was amazed by the authenticity, portion size, and flavor. Best I've ever had. Wife had the Western Omelet and the best grits she's had in a long time. The service and atmosphere were perfect. Everyone very friendly and professional. Customers flowed in and out steadily but it was never over packed. This may now be "our spot" for breakfast. read more

Clean, friendly and good sized portions. Nice visable daily specials. Would have given 5 stares, but not enough vegetarian options.

Great trendy diner that offers breakfast all day. The customer service and the food were excellent. My Yelp partner ordered an avocado chicken wrap and I ordered a fried chicken waffle Benedict. The fried chicken Benedict is not on the regular menu (it was a special for the day). The food was to die for and the generous portion sizes might make you feel like you're dying from fullness at the end of your meal. The prices for most food items are between $7-$14. The place was packed when we got there around 1pm on a Saturday and we had to wait about 20 minutes to be seated. It was definitely worth the wait and I can't wait to go back. read more

I was in town visiting when I came across this place. I decided to stop in and I must say I was not disappointed in the slightest. The service was amazing, food was great and they're prices were on the affordable side. I loved that they had the open tabletop to see the kitchen. Made me feel very good being able to watch my food being cooked in front of me. I ordered the Meat Lovers Omelette and I have no complaints. It was so big I wasn't able to finish it. I'll definitely go again when I'm in town. read more

For a chain restaurant it is solid food with great service. Love the sausage gravy n biscuits, crispy shredded hash browns, eggs benedicts, & they always have creative specials! I like the call ahead option to get on the wait list! read more

Listen all I have to say is Kudos. I was tired of driving to Philadelphia for a good breakfast spot now I found one close to my house. There was no wait I walKed right in and was greeted and seated. I enjoyed the waffles were just like like them crisp on the outside fluffy in the inside and hone the strawberry butter light and sweet not all buttery greasy. Chicken well seasoned crispy any juicy . They even mixed the hot sauce and syrup at the table. I told all my friends even on my business pages. People just want something to complain about this is the best breakfast spot in Delaware keep up the great work I'll definitely be back. read more

It's typical diner food. Not exciting but it does the job. Was there on a Sunday afternoon for lunch. Seems kid friendly too.

We wanted to meet our Maryland based son and his family in Delaware ( 1/2 way) We live in NJ. Used Yelp to find a good place to eat in DE. The food was excellent: sausage gravy on biscuits, eggs Benedict, hash browns were crispy and browned, pancakes, grilled cheese, French Dip sandwich was stuffed with sliced beef and cheese. Presentation was perfect, food was hot and the portions were huge. John was our server and he was wonderful! Attentive, well spoken, and funny. The entire experience was perfect. Thank you! read more

Fantastic place! I had been to the one in Fayetteville and really liked it. Was surprised when I was able to find one in Delaware. Service was spot on... my meal was good... gave it a 5 out of 5. Check it out read more

I ordered the Charleston shrimp and grits, with a side of croissant french toast. Everything was really good.

Great experience! The food is always good and so is the service. Each time I've been, there has always been a 30-40 minute wait but once seated, I never felt rushed because they work so efficiently. The manager really worked the dining room, making sure all the guests were satisfied. I also heard the kitchen manager or chef give the kitchen staff kudos. I love that management appreciates the customers and their staff who work so hard to keep customers coming back. The food is delicious, the portions are generous and the prices are reasonable. read more

Best breakfast I've had in a long time from a diner. Friendly and prompt staff. Also, chicken and waffles are amazing.

Well for the second trip back they really went above and beyond the trip was well worth the drive up. Thank you Metro we will be back!! read more

Had a delicious dinner at the Metro Diner. Was our first time there. After reading the reviews we decided we had to try it. We were not disappointed! We were greeted promptly with a welcome and smiles. Our waitress, Sarafina, promptly came to our table to get our drink order. Had my heart set on breakfast until I saw the photo of the beef tips. They were tender and well seasoned. The broccoli cooked to perfection. The managing partner came over to make sure everything was okay and fill us in on some menu secrets. Make the Metro your next stop!!!! read more

My wife and I ate here this morning for likely the last time. In fairness, our previous experiences, 3 for the two of us, and an additional time for me left much to be desired, and this time showed improvement especially in the preparation of the food. I ordered steak and eggs. Medium rare on the meat. Poached eggs. Both were cooked correctly. My wife had two eggs over easy with bacon and a biscuit which arrived barely warm. My poached eggs were inadequately drained creating a very watery plate when I placed them onto the steak. We received the food without charge because the owner/manager sent us gift certificates and begged us to come back. The food was better. The service, though better, remained weak. So, when you look at the crowds of people who might still be waiting in the parking lot and wondering if it's worth the wait, I'd say no. read more

I went there for the first time to eat dinner and the service was impeccable. The waiter was so attentive and he also had the best personality. I ordered the chicken and waffles which were the best tasting waffles I've ever eaten. I would definitely recommend Metro Diner to anyone who wants to experience great food, a cozy atmosphere, and superior service. read more

I saw this place on Yelp and had to check it out. Not that I typically have complicated food orders but today I woke up wanting fish and eggs.... totally not on the menu haha. But Sarafina (bless her heart) was the real MVP. She had to get a manager to creatively modify the dishes in order to accommodate my wants. Long story short.... my friend and I ordered a slew of brunch items from steak and eggs to fish and eggs and half a waffle :). Sarafina never broke a sweat while putting the order in the to-go system and even laughed because she knew the cooks would likely have a question. Overall... the environment is exquisite. Management was wonderful and made great suggestions... even tried to convince us to dine in which we will do next time when we don't have to do work before going into work tonight lol. And the place was packed by the way but the customer service was outstanding. Soooo.... just check it out lol. You'll be glad you did. And tell Sarafina hello because she's awesome! read more

Amazing diner! The manager introduced himself our first time there and said they originated from Florida ( that is where I am from!) and we sat in front of the kitchen and it was amazing. Great food and good fun with the staff while we ate! read more

I ordered breakfast from here -- the eggs with scrapple, hash browns and english muffin. The worst experience and food ever! They forgot my scrapple and the english muffin was dry and stale and the hashbrowns were over cooked burnt and dry . The eggs tasted horrible. Will never order from there again. I couldnt even get through on the phone to complain and request replacement or refund! read more

Finally a decent brunch spot in Newark!!!! I love the Jacksonville Beach store and was thrilled to see a store in Delaware. The service is always amazing. This one did not have free coffee and lemon water while waiting but the wait was so short. We waited in line for about 15 mins. I had the chicken and waffles (as I always do) and to my surprise is was just as good as the first time I had it, if not better. The coffee of the day was also perfectly brewed and fresh. I will be back! read more

But i will not go back until they do because it really sucks now!!! read more

I went here for the first time for breakfast. I like how the restaurant is designed and the service very friendly. Only comment is the portion for the egg size vs the hash brown size. If you order hash browns they take up 1/2 the plate read more

I didn't know what to expect the first time I went to Metro Diner but I was pleasantly surprised. The food is great and they have very large portions. I always try new things and haven't been let down. The only down side is the long wait to sit down but its popularity proves how good this place is. read more

This is a hidden Gem, this Diner is Amazing. I'm a first time customer but will certainly not be my family's last. Extremely welcoming starting with the hostess whom checked us in and they even have a service which texts you a link to see how many people are in front of you! (How cool is that!) Tasha was our waitress and she was AMAZINGGGGG, excellent service from start to finish. Joe the owner came by to see how everything was and for me that is what put the cherry on top the fact he was there ensuring everything was right was the perfect touch you don't get that type of service anymore. I appreciate this place and recommend it! If you're looking for a place with fantastic food, friendly service and excellent service look no further. I will be returning and so happy I found this place. read more

I really like this place. I just am disappointed that they no longer have their Corned Beef Hash available. It was the best.

Metro diner is an awesome place for brunch. They have both bfast and lunch options all day and it has a southern touch. I like everything from the french dip to the belgian waffles and even the fries! I definitely recommend for brunch especially after a night out because the portions are nice and its great comfort food. read more

Came on Father's Day. Thought we would have to wait to be seated. We sat at the bar - and we were mesmerized by the kitchen team. Very clean, very nice, very respectful of each other. We could have sat there for hours. Hubby had Belgium waffles that he said were good. I had oatmeal bowl and it was huge. So good!!! Would definitely come back. Morgan our server was very nice and super quick. What a great place! Thank you! read more
