    Eggs and potatoes
    Karo R.

    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.

    Never disappointed! Breakfast, lunch or Dinner! Service is always friendly and quick! Everyone does a great job!

    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.

    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.

    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. They have a huge menu they do breakfast all day. The weight staff is amazing. Please ask for Princess she is awesome, we met with Justin the owner manager. He came around asking for feedback if everything was OK, we gave him our feedback and told him we would be back, He was just cordial friendly. Happy guy thanked us for coming in. 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.

    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.

    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

    Fresh made biscuits
    Daniel B.

    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.

    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 !!

    Croissant French Toast

    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!

    Double BLT with fries

    The service and food was wonderful. Me and my friend had a wonderful lunch there. We will be back. It's very cozy and nice.

    This mac n cheese is everything!

It's an old fast food restaurant that's now a local diner. Our server Alice/Allison? Was so sweet!!! Three of us order their BEC sandwich with either hash browns or the home fries which is what I got bc they were listed as seasoned potatoes. Which they were. Really well seasoned and great with added cheese and Texas Pete. The BEC part of the sandwich was perfect but then the toast was the fail because it was just cold dry toast. NO melted butter???

The floor was sticky.

It's the anniversary of my mom's passing and Easter weekend so a particularly tough time and I was feeling for some home cooked cozy cookin but not up for doing it myself. As we are out of state and can't be home with family this weekend, we went searching on UberEats to hit that spot, knowing I was going to end up with something like Cracker Barrel or iHop, neither of which sounded good but, let's be real, I'm emotionally eating right now. However, a newly listed Sunday's popped up in the delivery options. The menu was a bit limited but scored points for authenticity . My hubby got the ribs, collards, and mac-n-cheese. I got the fried pork chop, rice & gravy, green beans & fried okra. Both came with a roll and we (of course) ordered sweet tea, something we rarely do anymore, only for special occasions. So here's where I get extra critical of my southern food. This is home cookin' and just what the doctor ordered. I didn't want fancy, I didn't want frilly, I needed true comfort food and that's what I found here. Could I suggest some tweaks? Sure, the rice and gravy didn't have much flavor, could use a little s&p in the gravy. The pork chops were a tad salty as well as the green beans but both had great flavor! The fried okra is, well fried okra, but at least it's not breaded in corn meal. Too many restaurants try to perfect perfection and over correct. Hubby's ribs were good, collards were good but we didn't have pepper sauce to add that pop of vinegar since we ordered delivery. His Mac n cheese (and this is gonna hurt, was a bit dry) but lately I haven't been feeling for Mac n cheese and haven't been a huge fan of the baked Mac n cheese trend lately anyway. I always feel it's dry so this is not a knock to the restaurant. Was every item perfection? No. Would I order again? In a heartbeat! This is home cooking. It's not pretentious. It's no doubt made with love and it reminded me of sitting down at my grandma's dinner table for supper. I needed a real comfort meal and that's what I got, warmed my heart. Oh and the sweet tea! My hubby and I have been opting for healthier menu items for several years now and I've even lost my taste for southern sweet tea as it's now too sweet even for me, again, born and raised on southern sweet tea. We ordered an unsweet tea to dilute it knowing I wanted the comfort of sweet tea but I probably couldn't handle so much sugar. Well, no need. It's rare to find a restaurant that gets it sweet enough without making the tea thick like syrup, true southerners know what I'm talking about. Sunday's sweet tea hits that perfect line where it's sweet enough but not thick and the tea flavor still comes through. No need to dilute with unsweet tea, it's perfect! I knocked a star, mostly due to the imbalance of heavily salted pork chops and green beans with the lack of flavor on the rice and gravy. I think a little balance there, share the spices lol would really make my meal top notch, but again, if my grandma or momma had cooked this meal I'd have no complaints. The only reason I'm even pointing this out is to offer a fair review on Yelp, otherwise I wouldn't say a word and eat with a smile on my face and an overstuffed belly.

    It's a whole in a wall type building but the the food is awesome! It a cafeteria style restaurant…read morewith plenty of options.
