| - Metro Diner is one of the newest chains to land on Las Vegas soil. Achieving its third month of business, this is the fourth Metro Diner to open in the Las Vegas valley.
After hiking on the Seven Hills trail system, my brother and I were undecided on where to eat. Then I recalled that there was a new Metro Diner down the street. Both my brother and I appreciate the burgers that Metro Diner serves. So off we went to Metro Diner for a post-hiking dinner. It would be my second visit to a Metro Diner.
This Metro Diner is located in the Eastern Beltway Shopping Center which is the power center that includes a hyper busy Walmart Super Center, Home Depot, Sam's Club, and Petco. It also includes one of the most dysfunctional and dangerous parking lots in Las Vegas made worse by a serious need for a traffic signal at its Serene Avenue exits. Fortunately, Metro Diner is closer to Spencer Street than Eastern Avenue which eliminated much of the aggravation of having to drive through a dysfunctional and dangerous parking lot. We'd leave the car in a parking space equidistant from the Walmart Center g.m. entrance to the pod where Metro Diner is.
Upon walking inside Metro Diner, the man up front told us to sit anywhere. There wasn't much of a greeting at the same time that nobody told us about the specials on the board. This is a totally different experience from the experience that I had at the Rainbow Road Metro Diner in September, where the man stepped outside to welcome me to the diner before my waitress told me about the specials. Here, our waitress arrived a few minutes later with the three page menus. I thought that our waitress was nice at the same time that she could of used more training. Just like a badly needed traffic light is missing at the Serene Avenue exits, so was my badly needed Coke Zero refill. Nobody inquired about the Coke Zero refills. Then for the first time that I can recall dining out, the waitress gave us the wrong check. Obviously, I felt that there is some room for improvement in service.
As far as the burger there is zero need for improvement. In my opinion this chain ought to be named Metro Burger and Breakfast. When I quickly perused the three page menu that includes lunch and dinner plates, breakfast, and sandwiches I decided on the burger. For $10.99 I ordered the Bacon, Mushroom, and Swiss Burger medium done with French Fries. For an additional $2.99, I ordered a glass of Coke Zero. If Walmart in the parking lot's motto is "Save Money and Live Better," Metro Diner's motto could be "Spend money and live better." The thick and juicy burger melting with Hickory smoked bacon, sauteed mushrooms, and Swiss cheese was delicious. It tasted as if I was eating a burger right off the BBQ grill. And in contrast to some restaurants, the mushrooms did not appear to be from a Green Giant can. The tasty French fries sharing the plate with the burger tasted home made. Following this review are two pictures of the Bacon, Mushroom, and Swiss Burger. Just a warning, You might get hungry.
In conclusion, I am a fan of their Bacon, Mushroom, and Swiss Burger. On a scale of 1 to 5 stars, my return factor to this Metro Diner is 3.5 stars.
