Metro 29

A nostalgic blast from the past, this colorful diner is full of old-time decor and traditional food. Settle in at the shining metal counter or in a retro-style booth and prepare for good things. Don't expect nouvelle cuisine – the menu's American basics include griddle cakes with Canadian bacon and fat omelets overstuffed with items like feta, tomato, and spinach. Belgian waffles come with strawberries and whipped cream or with two big scoops of ice cream – a sweet way to start any morning. Breakfast is served all day, and extensive lunch and dinner menus are available.
