Four of us....two thumbs up two thumps down...definite diner atmosphere, service was good but the roast beef and bleu cheese sandwich was TERRIBLE...dried out beef no flavor and microscopic bleu cheese...Tomato Bisque tasted like Tomato Paste...I guess if you have no taste buds left this would be the place to eat....even the salt and pepper didn't help. Another person had... More

It's a little daunting when you pull into the parking lot of this restaurant because there is a mob scene and very little parking options. But waiting for this is like waiting for any other quality item, worth it!!! First, they have a TON of people working there in a very organized manner which means you get fast service but... More

We've been here several times and were NEVER seated when we were told. During the summer, waiting outside in the heat is uncomfortable. And while passable, the food is nothing to write home about. Service is indifferent and its very noisy - more so than one would expect. Wait time for food is also way too long. Go to Beach... More

Loved their french onion soup and 1/2 chicken salad sandwich. PLUS THEIR KEY LIME PIE, better than Key West. Went back the next day, was not disappointed. Friendly wait-staff. Nice outdoor eating area; watch for smokers on sidewalk. Warning: only open til 2:30 pm. Darn it!

Breakfast is my favorite meal. This is my favorite place for breakfast. They have what you want, and some things you haven't thought about. It is like stopping at my grandmother's house and being spoiled with the best food ever. It is popular. There will likely be a wait. It is more than worth it.

Great place all around. Service and food is always on point. If in Jacksonville Beach make it a top priority!

The food here is excellent with a great atmosphere. My favorite breakfast item would have to be the Eggs benedict, and favorite lunch item is the Pittsburgh Sandwich a must try.

We have visited the JAX beach area four times since 2009, as we are considering it as a retirement destination in the coming years. By chance, I saw this diner featured on the show "Diners and Drive-Thrus" (?) on the Food network. Actually, the show was about the original Metro Diner in the San Pablo area of Jacksonville, but when... More

I was in town visiting some friends when they told me I had to come here. The wait was about 30 minutes, but it turned out to be worth it. Out of all of the places we ate at during the week, Metro Diner was, by far, my favorite. The staff was really friendly and they give you so much... More
