Dee guided us with great suggestions on the wine and dinner menu. Super prompt with service and made us and our guest feel special. We started with a couple drinks, Cesar and house salad. Cesar salad was huge, good for 2. Hanger steak, filet mignon and homemade fettuccine for dinner - everything was good and gone. Chocolate torte and souffle for dinner with port and b52 to bow on a beautiful dinner. We'll definitely be back. Dee, Karissa, and the staff made our evening memorable.

Excellent steak house just outside of Downtown Durham. Menu has Brazilian vibes. Filet Au Poivre was cooked to perfection. Tiramisu was a huge portion and was delicious but the chocolate lava cake was amazing.

We were from out of state and driving around in the rain and dark for a place to eat. Turning into the parking lot was an amazing blessing! THE FOOD AND SERVICE WERE AMAZING. Extremely affordable❤️❤️❤️

This was our first time here, and we would highly recommend it. The food was outstanding, the service impeccable, and even the acoustics were excellent such that we could carry on a conversation at normal volume. It’s a charming place and well worth visiting.

WOW! Took my 15 year old son out for his birthday and it was a fantastic experience. The restaurant is gorgeous! The staff is 6 star friendly, helpful and kind. The food... The food is incredible! Metro 8 is a steakhouse with a more than steak menu. Everything we ordered was great! This is certainly our go to formal restaurant.

We had an amazing experience. We made reservations prior and were able to avoid any wait time. We had asked for a secluded table when we made reservations, and they were able to accommodate our request. We had a great table which happened to be next to their beautiful Christmas tree, which added a nice magical touch to our experience. We had the provoleta and chorizo for our appetizer and both were delicious. My husband had the cowboy ribeye and said it was the best he has had. So tender and juicy and seasoned perfectly. I had their popular Churrasco steak, and it was equally amazing. Their sides are a little basic but still very tasty. Overall, we had a great time and enjoyed the food. The service was great, and the whole staff works together to take care of you. It was refreshing to see. We would definitely make our way back.

Great water, Very heart healthy! No seasoning was used on any of the food. I’m not sure who is giving this place high ratings but they should be investigated and jailed immediately. The service was good. Prices were good, but I would’ve happily paid 25-40% more for better food.

It's one of the best steaks I have ever eaten. Everything was delicious. The dessert was amazing. Highly recommend this place.
