This is a clean American food place to get basic food well prepared. Staff is attentive. Great variety of choices on the menu. The epitome of a "diner" experience. Clean restrooms, plenty of seating and parking. We come a couple times a month and have not had bad meals yet. The manager wanders about touching base at tables which were appreciate. read more

Teraisha "Rae" was a joy after our long trip. She made our morning and we will be coming back to Metro Diner often now! The food was delicious, great value and arrived quickly. read more

Metro Diner - Fruity Waffle - Diners Near Me - Anderson, South Carolina

The restaurant was cleaned and the service was good. The food was ok. My eggs were just ok. My mom asked for 1 egg and I asked for 2 and she got way more eggs than I did. The grits were good. I didn't care for their coffee. The sausage links came later and missed the photo op. They were pretty good. I wouldn't say I wouldn't come back here, if I do...I would try something different. read more

I stopped visiting after observing a couple of interactions that raised some concerns about the overall environment. During one visit, I overheard an employee using inappropriate language while speaking to a server. A few days later, I returned and heard the same employee speaking in a similar manner to a different server. Because these were two separate incidents involving different servers, it raised questions about whether this was an isolated occurrence or part of a larger issue. With the restaurant having an open kitchen where customers can see and hear what is happening, it was concerning to witness these types of interactions in front of guests. read more

Very good service and quality of food. Madyson, our server, was truly amazing. I would definitely recommend this place for breakfast or lunch. read more

If you know Metro Diner from other locations, this location is on par. Food and service were great, albeit a little slow as we came during shift change in a Sunday afternoon. read more

While traveling from South Carolina to Georgia, we decided to stop off and grab something to eat. We were both craving breakfast food 8 o'clock at night and this place hit the spot. The service was good, the restaurant was pretty clean and the food was pretty good. The waffle was probably one of the best that I've tasted in a while and I absolutely fell in love with the taco breakfast bowl. They also had my favorite hot sauce...... The only complaint I have is that they were a little bit too eager to close up, so we felt a little bit rushed, by them closing the blinds and pulling the chairs up. read more

Cute, homey place with an excellent variety of meals. Many choices for breakfast, lunch or dinner. The food was very good and the service was excellent! The servings were very generous. They are on top of everything and won't let your drink glasses or cups get too low. Every employee there is friendly and outgoing. Would love to mention Theonnie (ask to see pics of her sweet 6 week old), Dani & Danielle in particular. Even though Theonnie was our server, Dani & Danielle checked up on us too, refilled coffee cups and made sure we had what we needed. read more

Was on a business trip and stumbled on his dinner. I had a great experience from the tine I walked in to the time I left the building. Family friendly atmosphere with good seating. The waitress was super friendly and provided exceptional service. I was seated right away. I ordered the crab cake eggs Benedict with grits. My meal came out hot and fresh. The crab cakes were excellent and the hollandaise sauce was really good. It was one of the best that I've had. The grits were ok, but those crab cakes were phenomenal. I would definitely recommend this restaurant. read more

Friday 9-12-25, we were looking for lunch, we didn't want the typical fast through drive-through restaurant we were looking for something sit down with good food, we fell upon Metro diner accidentally and we were so happy.

We love fish and chips, so that's what we ordered. Plenty of food delicious a little on a spicy side but full of flavor. We are definitely going back for breakfast. This is just a great diamond in the rough in Anderson when you're looking for good food, reasonable price happy weight staff great manager just an all-around good place to eat. I highly recommend it. read more

I was so excited to learn that this diner was coming to Anderson. I've been various times in Charlotte and loved it! This location has great service.. However, some of the food items have room for improvement (hash browns and biscuits). The ambiance is nice, but be sure to take a jacket because it is cold inside. read more

Everything we ate was delicious. We came for their "soft opening" and they did not disappoint. Best bacon ever. I asked for it not crunchy and it's perfect. My son loved the mac n cheese it tasted homemade. My daughter actually Loved the chicken which is saying a lot for her. We had so much left over and glad we did it was so good the second time around too. My husband loved the fried chicken eggs Benedict and we look forward to coming back read more

We were In Anderson, SC for an early baseball game (no breakfast) and looking for a local place to eat before the next game. We went to the Metro Diner late on a Sunday morning. The parking lot was full, which is always a good sign. The Diner was full with 5 or 6 parties ahead of us, but our wait was less than 5 minutes. The wait staff was friendly even under the stress of a full house. Our food was just as we ordered, plentiful and scrumptious. I would highly rate this local favorite. read more

Absolutely excellent food. Good variety on menu. I had the Bacon Avocado Scramble bowl. Priced well and plenty of food for the price. Service was excellent and waitstaff was very attentive for all things before, during, and after service . Great atmosphere and it was in line with a good old fashion diner. Highly recommend this eatery. read more

The food, service and environment were wonderful at Metro Diner. As soon as we walked into this establishment we were shown to a clean table. We ordered two eggs with a meat, hash brown, and toast and unlimited coffee and tea. The waitress was polite and got our orders correct. The food arrived hot and perfectly cooked. Prices were reasonable. Would definitely go back when we can. read more

I have visited Metro Diner a couple of times and have been very impressed so far. The food is very good and reasonably priced. The service is fast and friendly. Good food in a cozy diner experience. I would definitely recommend this place. read more

The green theme in this diner is beautiful. I love the retro vibes on some of the decorations. Our server Cassie was so nice. She recommend what she thought was the best options. They serve breakfast, lunch and diner all-day. My mom ordered the chicken and waffles, my sister order the croissant french toast, and I ordered the cinnamon roll pancakes. It comes with candied pecans and i'm not really a fan of pecans but these were delicious. 10/10! read more

New restaurant in town!!! We went to the soft opening and the employees were all so nice, from the waitresses to the manager. They brought out the food! I saw a plate of chicken and waffles go by and I said that's two separate meals. Large portions. I had the Double BLT and it was very filling. Came with a pickle and I got onion rings. The rings were whole onions and they didn't separate from the batter. Plenty of sides to choose from the menu. My husband had the steak tips. They were tender, served on top of mashed potatoes and fresh green beans. He ate the entire bowl. He never finishes anything . To end it all you have to have the cookie butter bread pudding! 3-4 inches high, buttery and a crumble of speculos on top!! Wow! The place is new so everything was Spotless. Open kitchen, bar with stools just like an ole timey diner. The serve elevated diner food and then some. Open breakfast and lunch for the next 2 weeks and then dinner will be established!! This place is going to give Cracker Barrel a run for their money! Scratch that the metro diner has them beat hands down. This will be my new stomping ground for good eats!!' Try it for yourself; you won't regret it. It's where the Denny's used to be. Try this out and Bon appetito !! read more

Slow service and mediocre food at best. Server didn't mention the specials. Clean and pleasant atmosphere but most people waiting to be served despite plenty of staff. Will definitely not be back. Too many better choices in Anderson. read more

We went for a late lunch on a Friday and the place was packed! It's definitely loud so be prepared, but it's not so off putting that I wouldn't go back. The food was really good. I had the lemon blueberry waffle with strawberry butter and a side of bacon. The waffle was amazing! Flavorful with slight crispness to the outside but fluffy and chewy on the inside. Not a fan of the strawberry butter but that's more personal preference than anything being wrong with it. My husband had biscuits and gravy. He said they were good, nothing to write home about but definitely not mediocre. Server was very friendly and attentive despite having a full load of tables. If you're in Anderson, SC, you should definitely go! read more

Food is generally good and service fair. On 10-11 we asked to be seated in empty booth and were told no because of "rotation" by hostess. We were seated next to tanle of 14 to 16. We know that this type of table requires a lot of attention. Needless to say wr shpuld mot have been sat there. And why or what is "rotation"? We will return. But some training is needed. read more

Visiting in Anderson SC and stopped in for breakfast. The service was a little so to start off. Waited about 5-6 min before anyone came to my table even though there were 6 servers standing in the far corner talking and laughing with each other. However, once my waitress did arrive, she was a good server. I had the breakfast burger, medium rare with an over-medium egg. Both work cooked perfectly and the taste was amazing. Fries were seasoned very well also. I would definitely return if I'm ever back in the area. read more

The service was amazing. Our waitress was Tiffany and she sure has that southern charm. She was very polite and on top of making sure we enjoyed the food and drinks. Nice to see someone smiling when you are being served. I don't know who her boss is, she deserves to be employee of the month. The food was great and plenty to bring home for a snack. Thank you Tiffany for making our morning read more

Great breakfast choices, friendly service and clean restaurant. Can't wait till we go back !!

One of our favorites has come to Anderson! We have traveled to Augusta just to eat here. Now, we can go to Anderson! Their fried chicken is nothing short of amazing... It's marinated and has GREAT flavor. Their breakfasts will shock you with how much they have to offer. Shepard's pie, house club, pot roast, turkey dinner, and daily specials will keep you coming back. So glad you are now close by. read more

I went to Metro Diner for the first time for lunch on Tuesday, July 8 with a good friend. We were both SO impressed with the deliciousness of the food, menu choices, ambience and especially the service! Our waitress was Sheila Metz--I have to say she was the kindest, friendliest, attentive and everything else you could wish for in a server! She was "on the spot" with everything, frequently checking if we needed anything, made us feel like we were special! I appreciate her work ethic and personality in her treatment of customers. Thank you to everyone at the diner for making our experience "perfect." Will definitely return!! read more

Our first visit but definitely not our last. Food was really good and there was a lot of it. next time we'll probably order one omelet and split it, rather than leaving so much on our plates. Our waitress, Bella (short for Isabella) was outstanding, funny, attentive and well worth the 60% tip. The whole vibe of the place is welcoming and the varying t-shirt messages will make you smile. read more
