- Blayne HaberkornAugust 14, 2013Amazing!!! First time here! I had the stake salad. It was different but delish! My boyfriend had the meatloaf and he loved it !! And we split a yo halla 1/2 size and that truly is life changing!
John KJuly 16, 2014Bissell Breakfast was great! Bacon could have been crisper but I didn't ask for it that way so shame on me. Pancakes were awesome! My go to breakfast spot when I am in JAX.

GourmetLiveJune 8, 2012Food blogger Nicole of Puttin' on the G.R.I.T.S. recommends Metro Diner. "Try the house special Yo Hala on the Square, a slice of challah stuffed with sautéed bananas and blended with cream cheese."
Gregory HallJune 24, 2017The crabcakes Florentine Benedict were scrumptious! The chicken and waffles or was divine as usual! The servers were very nice. Definitely going back!
Emma BeeAugust 11, 2013If you live in Jacksonville or stayed in Jacksonville for more than 48-hours and have not been to Metro Diner then shame on you! Dishonor on your whole family! Dishonor on you! Dishonor on your cow!

ShaniahApril 9, 2013Amazing waffle, get the strawberry butter and the Greek omelet was to die for!!!!! Delish, nice staff no complaints!
Trent CooperFebruary 19, 2012Its all good. You can judge if a breakfast place is good on how they execute biscuits and gravy. And they got it close to perfection here!
Jacque ColeMarch 18, 2016Chicken and waffles are to die for....awesome strawberry butter and spicy dipping sauce- Rickey PoppellFebruary 10, 2018NO WAY, the Beach Café in Jacksonville Beach is by far the BEST Breakfast in all of Florida.
The meatloaf dinner is amazing. Everything I've had here is amazing actually
Moriah MaeOctober 26, 2012The meatloaf is absolutely incredible and with large portion sizes you will have more than enough to bring home for your next meal! Highly recommend!
Been driving by the place for years, but never stopped, because there's usually a line out the door. Finally stopped by last week. It was awesome. I had the 3 grilled cheese w/ham. It was fantastic. Read more
Chuck FinleyApril 28, 2016Amazing food, cute waitresses and suprisingly big portions, chicken and waffles bruh.
Woody WommackOctober 19, 2015This place lives up to the hype for sure. Try the pumpkin pancakes if they have them!- C SchanetteMay 11, 2014Chicken and waffles w/ strawberry butter are yummy. You can also get it in half size.
Chidi OgeneJuly 20, 2013Great food, better prices. Had the all-american today, going back for the chicken and waffles tomorrow!
Amanda KaufmannFebruary 26, 2011The food here is UH-MAZE balls!! The crab cake benedict is heavenly and the biscuits and gravy is southern authenticity at its finest.

Lisa A.February 17, 2013Yo Hala is awesome, shrimp and grits are yummy and the "big" pancakes are 12 inches large!

Dewayne CantrellJanuary 1, 2014If you come to this metro diner ask to sit in Lauren's section. she is the best server
Justin PowellOctober 4, 2012Sat outside and had 1/2 the Stuffed French toast and Pittsburgh Sandwich. Both were amazing. I highly recommend either.
William Duke Jr.October 24, 2011All the eggs benedict choices are awesome. Shrimp n Grits are great too. Stay away from any of the salmon dishes.
Jeff RojasOctober 28, 2012Creamed Chipped Beef is great but Heuevos Rancheros is where's its at. Be prepared for wait. Totally worth it.
Brad LindemannFebruary 26, 2011P.S. (And YES, I am STILL eating!) This fab place is tot cool with BYOB bloodys or memosa's! Say HI to Brittney - she's the bomb-diggity.
Charity SavageJune 3, 2012Croissant french toast is amazing! Also their strawberry butter is such a good idea!
Kristi HaugNovember 4, 2012Outside seating is first come first serve so keep your eye out for a table and try to snag it (:
