  • Could have been better. Leg of lamb dinner was way too salty, roasted potatoes were twice cooked. Bright side the carrots were tasty. Husband had chicken parmigiano chicken was DRY. mother in law had eggplant parmigiano. WHERE'S THE EGGPLANT? the slice of eggplant was paper thin. We will not be back bit even fire the desserts. by ms t Sun 03/24/2013 5:05 PM severn Joined Oct 2011 2 Posts 2 Restaurant Visits
  • it was BADDDD. Nobody from our group enjoied their meal. The prime rib had a funny taste and the manager tasted it and spit it out then straight to the kitchen! by dpal31 Tue 07/31/2012 12:00 AM Hertford,nc Joined Jul 2012 1 Posts 1 Restaurant Visits
  • not impressed. mediocre service, pricey for what it is, and, as another review states, seems more like a diner facade than a real diner. the desserts looked delicious, but... by therozet Tue 04/24/2012 12:00 AM Joined Apr 2012 1 Posts 1 Restaurant Visits
  • I gave this a thumbs down, but just barely. Metro 29 is not a bad place by any means, but it just doesn't have that diner ambiance that really grabs me. This feels more like a Disney-type facade on a regular mid-upscale eatery than an authentic diner. I had the Yankee Pot Roast and, while it was tasty, I thought it marginally overpriced at $16.95. The side of cabbage was tasty. The cram of asparagus soup was okay. by Jackwarr Sat 10/22/2011 12:00 AM Towanda, Illinois Joined Sep 2011 2 Posts 8 Restaurant Visits

    the burgers are SO DELICIOUS. two slices of cheese. jumbo size it for onion rings and fries!
  • Joe Z.
    Given the diverse menu and generous portion sizes, there should be something for every type of eater here. High chairs are available for young children. Parking in the back can get crowded on Sundays.

    The dessert counter is an incredible vortex of sugar infused deliciousness that will give you diabetes if you look at it.

    A must go to place great food & service
  • Terilee007
    Do NOT eat here! Been 3 times & 3 different dishes & each time got sick 2 stomach ltr. Wait staff ranges from good 2 terrible. AVOID!
  • Christopher A.
    Absolutely some of the largest portions around. Eat half and still have enough for later!
  • Virginia M.
    The best place for kids as they have crayons and the food comes fast.
  • BROADS
    Order the Belgian Waffles with Ice Cream now, thank us later!
  • Lisa E.
    Ask for Alonzo. He provides great service!

    The Guy Fieri worship is a little over the top. It's required to wear your glasses on the back of your head once you walk in the door. How am I supposed to read the menu??
