My boyrfriend and I went to Metro 8 based on a previous Citysearch review. It is a very calm, quaint restaurant in the middle of 9th St in Durham. We both had different steaks which were cooked very well, but not as seasoned as I tend to like. However, the service and the desserts were absolutely superb! The chocolate souffle should be illegal!!! It takes a few extra minutes for them to make, but it is well worth the wait. The waiter was very nice, attentive, and conversational.
Pros: ambience, service
Cons: it was very empty the Friday night we went, but there was no waiting
