About Metro Diner
Metro Diner’s story began in 1938 when the building that would become the first location opened in Jacksonville, Florida. Officially branded in 1992, Metro Diner quickly became the go-to local restaurant for comforting classics and reimagined favorites.
With the help of Master Chef Mark Davoli and his family, Metro Diner continued to grow and even earned a spot on Guy Fieri’s Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives. Fieri raved about many Metro signature items including our Fried Chicken & Waffles and Iron City Meatloaf. Both dishes remain the backbone to Metro Diner’s bold and innovative menu offerings.
Orlando is home to other Metro Diner Locations - one just down the street from Oviedo on University Blvd near UCF, a newer location in Casselberry, and diner in Altamonte Springs which opened back in 2015. Learn more about Orlando area Metro Diner Locations
