Ate at Metro 8 last night. Picked it because of the reviews on this site (thanks to all who post), and picked it over the recommendations of the hotel I am staying at. I was choosing a place to eat for a group of 10 business colleagues, 7 of whom I have never met. They all put the pressure on... more

This place is great..the food, the atmosphere, the staff and owners. However, we reserved this place for our wedding rehearsal dinner a few months ago and we were told up front we could have the entire back room at no extra cost until midnight, which included a patio and private bar area. Well, we got through our dinner and we... more

The wine list is a variety of great wines from all over the world. I had the provaleta and the empanadas for starters and they were fantastic. The caeser salad... more

My wife and I had seen some great reviews of Metro 8 and decided to go there for a post-Christmas treat while in Durham. We were not disappointed. The food was great and the servers were very friendly. The bartender mixed up a great hot toddy for my wife who was feeling under the weather. My wife's filet was a... more

I am so pleased to see Metro 8 as the number one restaurant in Durham since it is an honor that is well-deserved. We have been there at least 6-8 times in the past six months and have never been disappointed. The provoleta is absolutely divine (we always get this) and we have tried many of the entrees. Our favorites... more
