Ordering from a Non-Affiliate Restaurant:
A "Delivery Service Fee" will be applied on all non-affiliate restaurant food orders (Approx. 15%) in addition to our standard delivery fee.
(A non-affiliate restaurant is a restaurant that you fill in the name on the order form and that is not listed on the form.)
During peak delivery hours when we are extremely busy, priority will always be given to orders from our partnered and affiliated restaurants and we reserve the right to refuse delivery from any non-affiliated restaurant at our discretion.
Your order will include a tip for the driver.
Our drivers work very hard! All of our drivers go above and beyond even what most servers do at any given restaurant. They confirm the order, drive across town to the restaurant, go over the order and verify it is correct at the restaurant, (to catch and prevent mistakes), transport everything in thermal tote bags, stop in route to pick up additional requested items and then deliver the order directly to the customer as quickly as possible. For your convienince a 20% tip for the driver will automatically be inclued on your ticket.
We tip restaurants.
We appreciate the hard work that restaurant employees, wait staff and servers do and we may tip them accordingly and your food total may reflect this tip as well.
For ALL large party/catering orders there we will include a non-optional 10% tip to the restaurant.
DO NOT CALL THE RESTAURANT TO PLACE FOOD ORDER.
We pride ourselves on bringing only the freshest food to you fast, and to ensure the highest quality food arrives at your door, we only place your order with the restaurant when our drivers are in-route to the restaurant. This is how we ensure your food is hot, fresh and never sitting and waiting for a driver to arrive.
Group Orders
If you are a group that is placing a split-ticket order (with each person paying separately) please understand we will not split delivery fee below our minimum delivery fee amount.
The MINIMUM delivery fee we will charge is $2.99 for cash orders or $3.99 for credit card orders PER TICKET.
We make it easy for you
A while back, (19 years ago now), we saw a need in Lincoln for an easy, fast and affordable way to order all the wonderful cuisine around here without shuffling through a mess of menus, making endless phone calls, or trying to navigate a great restaurant's not-so-great website. So, with years of restaurant experience under our woefully well-fitting belts, we decided to do something about it and create Metro Dining Delivery.
Metro Dining Delivery is locally owned and founded and it is the last place you'll ever have to go online to order yummy cuisine for delivery.
One click separates you from what you are craving!
We bring your favorite restaurant to you.

Absolutely worth every penny-- Great service! Ordered food at 9pm on a Sunday night using MDD's app on iPhone, knowing that the business (The Oven) didn't accept orders past 9:30pm, so my hopes were not up for timing or quality given my late order. Man, was I wrong! Our food arrived within 30 minutes of the online order, was just as fresh and hot as if I had ordered it inside the restaurant, and the delivery person (a young woman named April) checked my order for correctness, and was kind, cheerful and courteous! She even broke down the bill so I understood my delivery charge and (optional) gratuity. Needless to say, she earned my full tip! This service is competitive in pricing and about the same as ordering a pizza from a national chain. The benefit is having employees who care about getting the product to the customer ASAP and the broad range of restaurants to choose from makes life so much better!Jennifer M (Google Review)
Quick, friendly, and the delivery fee is not much more than what is tacked on when you order Pizza or Chinese. I placed an order from the Oven- my food was hot, and I was happy as a clam! I wish I could give 10 stars. Thank you Metro!Jasminda P (Google Review)
Today I am a very happy customer.... I truly believe the online ordering Is a huge benefit and will alleviate a lot of frustration. It was stated very clearly they were not taking orders from non affiliated restaurants at the time, and only offered restaurants you could order from. I really appreciated not having to try to figure that out myself. I like that they do not expect me to call the restaurant and order my own food then call them back, etc..... I paid with my credit card and was immediately sent a confirmation text with an expected delivery time. When my driver arrived he was presentable, pleasant and EARLIER than I was quoted. When I opened my order, it was absolutely perfect right down to the extra sauce and it was as hot as if I had just walked away from the counter myself. I even received a text later to make sure everything had been to my liking. I will definitely use their service again, and thank you for a wonderful meal and great experience.J White (Google Review)
