    Disappointed, BUT we'll be back to try something different. The restaurant was packed, which indicates that they t be doing something right, but our meals were average at best. We both had chicken Caesar wraps, which were only lightly packed in the wrap, and didn't have enough dressing, so they were very dry. The homemade chips had barely any seasoning on them and were overcooked. Despite this, the wrap and chips (after adding salt) were tasty, so we'll give it one more shot.

    Barely any mayo ....  Also, the onion rings were over seasoned and a bit greasy

    I really hate to complain since most of the time I order here or the other in wgv area and it's usually good. Ate in earlier this evening around 445-5pm and disappointed as we ordered medium and was both a little under done. Also, they were stingy with the mayo. And when we asked for some extra mayo was handed one pack ... As well as we both ordered onion rings and were given only one sauce which was fine since it also was not as good as usual. It wasn't that busy and their were plenty of staff on hand.

    We stumbled across this place and decided to try it out, it was surprisingly good decent pizza, burger and salad. Burger medium well cooked, juicy with delicious mushrooms, served with sweet potato waffle fries, so crispy and full of flavors. Pecan vegan salad was also a hit for me, I ate the whole thing in seconds, wish the portion was bigger. My little ones had cheese pizza, again, loved it and they are everything so fast.

    This loop is AWESOME!!! Scott and Carlos are fantastic when I had a problem Carlos helped me out and Scott was the one who my food which was absolutely delicious. 10/10 Will definitely come back!!

    My daughter and I were pressed for time but definitely needed sustenance so we tried The Loop in the plaza at the western end of Race Track Road (Publix in the plaza). She got an individual pizza and I ordered the Turkey wrap. It was all tasty and quick, except that the avocado slices I ordered as an extra element in the wrap were missing. I didn't make a thing of it because we were short on time. But, definitely check that you get all your extras. This is convenient to my new living area so I will try them again!

    Portobello and bacon pizza. I don't even know if there was pesto or bacon on this thing I couldn't taste it.

    My review is for the San Jose blvd location. Awful! Just awful. First things first, when operating a business you want to be sure to open when you say you open. So if it says you open at 11 AM that doesn't mean 1101 it doesn't mean 1102 that means 11 AM.... me and two other customers showed up at exactly 11 and we all have the same time on our cell phone. I was the first one to the door but couldn't get in because it was locked so I went back to my vehicle then after a minute or two I got back out and the two other customers made it in before me which meant instead of ordering first like I would have I had to order behind them, which means longer wait time for my food. The only really good thing about the restaurant was the employees were polite. There is music going on at the same time as a TV so if you're dining in, I wouldn't say the ambience there is soothing. I mean, if you're going to have some kind of auditory stimulation going on pick one or the other, but not both at the same time. If you don't like being recorded by some stranger behind a lens, you might not want to dine in. There is a camera pointed in the dining area. The worst part of all though was what I ordered. I ordered an 8 inch pizza and it was the worst pizza I ever had. Bland, bland bland. The whole thing was bland, even the crust. And I wasn't satiated at all. I actually had to go to another restaurant so I could feel satiated. It cost me almost 12 bucks for this tiny pizza. I could've gone to Domino's and had a delicious pizza for less money and Domino's is right across the street. I for sure won't be back.

    The Loop is a consistent dining option in the Fruit Cove/Julington Creek Area. Great menu options include burgers, pizza, grilled fish and chicken with fresh salads and sides. Food is cooked to order and always hot and fresh. My favorite is their grilled chicken sandwich, well seasoned and is juicy and tender. It includes your choice of a side item, steak fries are always a great choice. Fruit or side salad are also options. Clean restaurant, newly remodeled with TV's. Convenient location with fast friendly service.

    Glad they still have the white fish option at this location - not on the menu. Extra blackened.  $9.99.

    Not all Loops are created equal. Thankfully this location close to home is one that has remained consistent. I also appreciate the fact that they keep the whitefish sandwich as an option at this location since its not on the menu. Overall a good experience and their burgers are always good. Simple menu but they do everything right. Too bad the deep dish pizza is no longer an option. Nonetheless if you want a level up from fast food, the Loop is a good choice.

    This is one of my go to restaurants! It's right across the road from work! This location has great parking, being part of a strip mall. I like the service here. The staff is very nice, and the food is always good. Some of my favorite food is... 1. Ahi Tuna Sandwich! (Not on the menu, but always available) 2. Blue cheese chips 3. Cajun Jack Burger 4. Nutella milkshake They get a 4 because the bathrooms need an update. They aren't terribly old, but they are old enough they don't feel clean either.

    Prices are sky high. Quality of the food is down. Food ordered wasn't made the way the menu described it, so not going back.

For appetizers, we started with the snapper bites and the fried blue crab claws. Both were cooked to perfection and packed with flavor. For our entrees, we decided on the seafood broil and the fried platters. Both dishes hit the spot. The portion sizes were well balanced, and we left feeling satisfied rather than overly full. On top of that, the pricing was great. Our waiter was great, but the pacing of the meal could have been smoother since it took about 45 minutes to get our entrees. There were a couple of other notable downsides. The restaurant was quite loud, and to top it all off, a woman at the table right next to us had her shoes off. Management really should have controlled that kind of behavior, as it detracts from the dining experience. Furthermore, despite making reservations to celebrate our anniversary, the restaurant did not acknowledge it at all. That was unfortunate. Still, the quality of the food and the service from our waiter kept things afloat.

Metro Diner has since become a regular goto place for fast and efficient service and food. We don't know the full menu yet. Over the past visits we have tried the teriyaki salmon, meatloaf, ribs, fish and chips and chicken pot pie. All of these were superb. Also we usually have two eggs, over easy for me and well fried for her with an entree or sometimes a bowl of oatmeal with various fixing. A full line of pancakes and waffles as well and really, my challenge is to insist on holding back the usual pile of pancakes as I am to old to carry all of it away! If you are retired military, be sure to flash your id for a discount - yeah, it is that kind of place. Family and community values are clear from the decor and ambiance. Finally, the price. Last night a great pork chop, which has become my usual choice with two eggs and coffee and two eggs, grits, and toast for her and under 40 bucks including tip.

Acted like I was just another thing to do. At $15 a plate, I expected a smile, a look of appreciation for a good tip, and a thank you for coming in. In my opinion, the other wait staff are resentful of kindness and appreciation. Tips are payed accordingly.

My boyfriend had a custom make your own old fashioned, which is always fun. You choose what type of liquor, bitters, and smoke you would like so you can tailor your drink to your liking. For appetizers, we had to get the roasted oysters, everything here has the essence of that fire grilled taste which I particularly love on oysters. After we knocked back a dozen of those, we tried the fries with the tender beef, cheese, and pickled jalapeños. They fry them in tallow, which gives the fries a really nice rich flavor! Then my boyfriend has some cornbread, which had a fruit jam and whipped butter, which he enjoyed. I typically get the chimichurri steak which again has that nice fire grilled element and is paired with some delicious vegetables like carrots, green beans, and potatoes. My boyfriend had the red fish over the andouille dirty rice, which was phenomenal! If I didn't get my seafood craving from the oysters, I definitely would've ordered that.
