I got the Mango Habanero Chicken (with home fries and steamed green beans). I was super excited about the mango habanero chicken, but was let down by the moistness of the chicken or lack there of. It was very dried out. But I did like the mango habanero sauce, it was delicious! The green beans were too crunchy and definitely needed cooked longer. The home fries were delicious, cooked nice and tender, and maintained their warmth throughout the meal.

My husband got the Western Omelet (hash browns and gluten-free toast). He was satisfied with the temperature and taste of his food.

My 4 year old son got the Two Egg Breakfast (scrambled eggs, fruit, bacon, and 2 full slices gluten-free toast cut into 4 triangles). It filled him up nicely with only two triangle slices of toast to go. He said his food was yummy!

This visit for me was a huge let down and quite disappointing. Not what any of our past experiences have been at this establishment, but then again this was our first visit to this location (Clearwater Crossing Indianapolis, IN location). Our previous wonderful experiences were at the Fort Wayne, IN location which sadly closed a couple years ago. Not sure we'll be traveling the 2 hours one way again to eat at the Clearwater Crossing location. Obviously can't expect the same experience at...

My family comes to this establishment every time I visit Indy and we always have Candice as our waitress (who is an absolute treasure btw) with a party size about 10-15 people each time. We have always been accommodated easily but today a very rude, control freak who seemed to be a manager named Alissa made a huge deal about putting our party at two different tables instead of together. She refused to sit us at one long table without requiring our table to be served by two separate waitresses. I explained to her that it didn’t make sense when the party sitting to the side of us could have sat easily at the 2nd table they were forcing us to sit at. She argued with me about this and it was really just a control issue. She created a problem that didn’t exist to then have our server serve that table anymore when another party came in while we were still eating. That woman creates a very negative environment and as a business owner myself I would get rid of her before she runs off my best staff. She has terrible problem solving skills and is rude to the workers. The food however was AMAZING as always!! Candace was excellent and attentive as always. Her service and the amazing food and the typically pleasant atmosphere is why Metro diner is the best part of my...

I would attach a picture IF I ACTUALLY GOT WHAT I ORDERED !!! I'm giving Metro Diner 1-stars across the board . I just ordered their Chicken & Waffles thru UberEats . When my order gets here , I notice there's no seal on the bag and it's been left open and unsecured . That's already a red flag because people are known to tamper with a person's food and y'all didn't take the necessary steps to ensure nothing happens during transport . ANYWAY....when my order arrives at my door , I immediately realize that there's no chicken in my bag . I'm not exaggerating . THERE'S NOT A SINGLE PIECE OF CHICKEN IN MY BAG WHATSOEVER!!! I'm supposed to be receiving a leg, a thigh, a breast & a wing and all I received was a bare plain waffle with some syrup . REALLY METRO DINER ??? And when I call to get the issue resolved , UberEats told me to take it up with Metro & Metro told me to take it up with UberEats . So I just spent $37.06 and all I have to show for it is a plain waffle with a cup of syrup on the side . I'll never be ordering or eating at Metro Diner ever again...

The Metro Diner is a bustling, Sunday brunch spot. SEATING & SETTING There was a waitlist for a table of two where we left a phone number and they were able to text us when they were ready to seat us. Additionally, we were able to track our place on the waitlist on our phones. The diner has a time period feel, which is exactly what we expected, but the place was well maintained, clean and vibrant. COVID MEASURES Masks are mandatory. They are also doing every other table for seating for help with social distancing. The tables are also wiped down with disinfectant between diners. SERVICE Our waitress was fantastic. She was helpful and full of energy and had a good sense of humor. She checked up on us a few times to make sure we didn't need anything. Food was also served timely. FOOD & DRINK Get their mimosas! It's not just OJ, and you can taste the champagne. I ordered one of their specials: stuffing waffle with chicken and vegetables. It tasted like Thanksgiving, rich and well seasoned!

UPDATE: I added a couple of stars back because I did reach out to Mr. Hardy and he made sure to make things right. That makes all the difference and I appreciate the effort. I've visited the Metro Diner on the South side a few times and the food has always been top tier. Today I visited the one on the Northside for the first time and I won't be back. I ordered chicken and waffles $16.99 and a chicken tender dinner $12 99. The tenders were an ok size I guess but the fries.....we literally got like 20 fries lol, pictures attached. For my waffles they cut it in half and then stacked them on top of one another so they could fit it all in one container which never happens at the one out south, so of course my waffles were extremely soggy and gross... again pictures attached. For a total of $33 dollars I'm very disappointed. Had I still been on that side of town I would've taken it back and got a refund. Highly disappointed.
