    Southwest Scramble Bowl
    Casey G.

    Busy around 1030 am but no wait to sit down. Staff was friendly and fast. Food was fast. It was alittle noisy but not unbearable. The bowl wasn't bad. It needed some hot sauce but it did the job for a fast bite at that hour. I liked that you can pay with the QR code on the check.

    We're visiting from Arizona. Came in for breakfast. We had a wonderful time. Everything was delicious. The salt as cakey because of the humidity. An easy fix for this is to add rice to the salt shaker. Host and our server April were so kind and full of hospitality. I loved the hash browns and my daughter raved about the waffles but honestly everything was good! The huevos rancheros were not traditional but instead large flour tortillas deep fried and topped as nachos with an egg which I loved the take on this dish. I would recommend this diner over any other in palm coast. Great job! We can't wait to be back

    Chicken and waffles

    We went to Metro Diner for breakfast on Mother's Day, we got a table outside in their covered dining section. Our server Renee was terrific! She moved quickly, very knowledgeable and knows the menu inside and out. My husband ordered sausage gravy and biscuits which comes with 2 eggs and home fries and coffee. I ordered the chicken and waffles (knowing full well I would be taking most of it home since it is such a large portion). They were quite busy but moving quickly. Our food was brought out in about 15 minutes which was great since they were so busy and I ordered the fried chicken which takes time. The chicken was so juicy, crispy and tender, the waffle had a crunch on the outside and fluffy on the inside. My husband said the sausage gravy was ok but really liked the biscuits, eggs and home fries. The outdoor dining was very nice and the weather was warm and sunny. Very enjoyable Mother's Day breakfast.

    Good food, pleasant server and hopping vibe. Met friends and it was halfway between us. Will return!

    Trying to find a place for quick breakfast food we drove by the restaurant. Because we spotted that is the outdoor seating is available, we decided to take a chance. It was crowded indoor, it appears as a popular place breakfast. It was a Sunday morning. It paid off, our service was great and on the top of that it wasn't too cold outside. Classic breakfast menu. My Egg Benedict was a good choice.

    Came here on a Saturday around 12pm, not too crowded. We used the online waitlist so only had to wait a couple of minutes to be seated. Our waiter was so sweet, we didn't get the best seat in the house as we were seated right by the bathroom. Yet, the food and service made up for it. The food came out pretty quick. In our party we had the San Francisco Egg Benedict, Steak and Scramble Bowl with fruit bowl and the Spicy Chicken Biscuit with fruit bowl. Everything was delicious! The scramble had great flavor and the steak was cooked well done as default. The Egg Benedict was flavorful and the fruit bowl was fresh. The spicy chicken biscuit could have used more spicy honey as the chicken tender on the biscuit was a little on the drier side. We also had mimosas, regular and the wild berry which were really good! We would definitely go back again!!

    Overall a great experience. Renee our server was a huge reason we all enjoyed ourselves so much. Our party was large - 9 in total. The food was delicious, prepared with care and it all came out together. You can't ask for more. With Renee as our server we had an advocate who made sure everything was just right. Wish I had taken more pics and better notes to write a more detailed review. They deserve it.

We did have clam chowder minus the clams and bits of potato normally found in most every clam chowder. It was essentially a milky broth. The fish sandwich was good. Our choice of Mahi was a nice-sized portion-control piece that had no doubt been purchased and delivered frozen, but to be fair was cooked to our liking. And it came with a large serving of crisp tasty fresh fries. The french dip sandwich was also pretty good. Plenty of shaved meat and a nice pineapple slaw side was more than enough to satisfy us. No complaints unless you thought clam chowder actually oughta have clam and potato in it, or if you were planning to enjoy fresh FL seafood at the 'Turtle Shack'. Instead, enjoy the burgers and the wings and the portion-control fish sandwich and the french dip and ignore the mis-leading name out front.

I ordered the grilled wings with buffalo sauce and a steak wrap that came with a creamy worchestishire (worsterchire... Worcestershire... there it is. I knew autocorrect would kick in eventually.) sauce on it. I very much liked the grilled wings, I've never been to a place that doesn't just deep fry them and as a diabetic without a gallbladder, I generally don't get to have wings. It was a nice texture and I rather enjoyed them. I did make the mistake of eating them first though, which was great for the wings BUT not great for my wrap because while the sauce on it was delicious, it made my wrap completely soggy. It would be infinitely better on the side, or learn from my mistake and eat the wrap first so you can enjoy the taste AND the texture. The ambiance is pretty cool if you are into sports bars. There are approximately 114 big screen TVs hanging around the place playing all the sports, and one playing trivia, which is more my jam. The bartenders were all super friendly and the locals were all super nice too. Apparently they do half off wings or BOGO wings on Mondays, which everyone recommends coming back for like they do.

It's got that perfect mix of sports bar energy and casual family dining. The bar side has the buzz, the restaurant side is a little more chill, and both have plenty of TVs if you're here to catch the game. The staff is consistently friendly and quick, even on busy nights, and the food is always solid. Wings, burgers, wraps -- we've tried a little of everything, and it's all good. (Special shoutout to their fries -- crispy, golden perfection.) When it comes to wings, we're partial to ordering them "well Wally wet" -- trust me, that's the move. The guys love the "everything sauce," which is exactly what it sounds like: a mix of all their sauces in one glorious combo. You can even order all flats for a small upcharge, which is a nice touch for fellow wing purists. We just celebrated our son's 20th birthday here, and the GM surprised us by buying dessert for the table. Totally unexpected and so appreciated! It's little touches like that that make a place feel local-loved rather than just local-known. Whether you're watching the game, grabbing dinner after work, just giving your kitchen a night off, or having a celebration, Houligan's Palm Coast is one of those dependable spots that never misses.

I ordered the grilled chicken and asparagus, which showcased the kitchen's skill. The grilled chicken was a mix of perfection and slight disappointment; one breast was cooked flawlessly, while the thinner piece was a bit dry, ultimately leading me to leave some behind. On the positive side, the asparagus was impeccable--tender yet crisp, a true highlight of the dish. To elevate my meal, I opted for the butter garlic sauce, which was nothing short of exceptional. Its rich flavor was a delightful addition, enhancing the overall dining experience. However, I found the extra charge of $3.00 for a portion that barely covered one chicken breast and two asparagus spears a bit disappointing. The sauce was so delectable that I ended up purchasing an additional container to take home for the asparagus I had left. **Beverages and Ambiance** The Beachy Sangria was another standout, offering a refreshing complement to my meal. It was perfectly balanced and added a delightful touch to our dining experience. The ambiance at Barnhill's is equally noteworthy.
