    Fried Chicken & Waffle and Eggs Benedict on a biscuit with chicken tenders.
    Brian C.

    On our way to Charleston SC we stopped overnight in Augusta GA. We decided to grab some supper and I came across this diner on Yelp. We went around 5 PM on a Thursday and were seated right away. A young lady named Kayla Jo was our server. She was fantastic and took great care of us during our visit. I ordered chicken and waffles with tenders instead of the bone in chicken. My wife ordered eggs Benedict. My dish came with strawberry butter, spicy maple syrup, and regular maple syrup. The waffle was delicious and mixed with the strawberry butter and spicy syrup it was delicious. Chicken was crispy and again adding the spicy syrup put the dish over the top. The portion was quite plentiful too. My wife's dish was served on a biscuit instead of an English muffin and with a chicken tender. The hollandaise sauce was cheesy but not overpowering. She enjoyed it quite a bit and thought it was delicious. The manager checked on us as did Kayla Jo frequently. Food was hot, fresh, and delicious. If you're in Augusta, you should check out this diner.

    I had the shrimp & grits and it really pleased my taste bud. The shrimp was well seasoned and the dish was put well together overall. I was still hungry and ordered the San Francisco egg benedict. The poached egg was cooked right and the hollandaise sauce could use a bit more seasoning.

    Biscuits & Sausage Gravy, eggs and hashbrowns.

    Traveling through Augusta I came across a familiar name. This location was smaller than the Florida establishments I've been too but clean and friendly. I was seated quickly. My waiter was John and he was very nice and attentive. I knew what I wanted so placed my order for sausage biscuits and gravy with medium eggs and hash-browns, coffee and water. It arrived in just a few minutes. Nice hearty meal, sausage gravy was very tasty, eggs were cooked correctly, hash-browns delicious. My only dislike was the biscuits. (-1). Very, very dense. I would have preferred fluffier/flaky biscuits. The dense biscuits required more gravy but because of the portion size I just scraped one clean and added that gravy to the other biscuit. This was a better ratio. Metro is known for large helpings and fair prices. I would still return and suggest you give it a try.

    My best friend and I went and we both had the Bissell Breakfast. When I tell you there was nothing but empty plates left over I am serious! The order came out lightning fast and my sausage was still sizzling! The waitress was amazing, checked on us and got everything we needed! This is definitely an 80's diner, the music brought me back to my high school years. The decor and atmosphere were fantastic! I love the green and white lights inside. I visited the restroom and it was well kept. I highly recommend this place for any meal!

    The food was and service was great, especially our server Warren, he was very attentive, kind, and just awesome. On the 2nd visit our server Cheryl was very nice. The Hostess on the other hand proceeded to seat my daughter and I in a dirty booth. I asked her nicely if she could clean off the table and I pointed out the booth also and this was after she somewhat wiped. Please go over cleanliness with ALL STAFF upon seating guest, this was just NASTY!!!!! I gave 3 stars 1 for the food that was delicious and a star for each server.

    Belgian Waffle with Cinnamon Roll add on

    Best waffle I've ever had! Seriously, it was incredible. I highly suggest that you go just to try it. The service was excellent. Our server was two steps ahead on everything and extremely nice. Everything about our group of six: food, service, and ambiance was all very good. Everyone stated that the food came out fast and tasted great!

    Spicy Honey Chicken Biscuit, Cinnamon Roll Pancakes, French Toast Breakfast
    Jordan N.

    Simple. Great breakfast/brunch. I lived in Augusta for 4 years and never had a bad metro experience! Always good service & great food! Give the spicy honey chicken biscuit a try! That biscuit puts Chick fil A to shame!

    The Bissell Breakfast substituted the pancakes and toast for a waffle.

    This is where the locals eat! My family always go to brunch after Christmas Day and this was our #1 choice this year. It wasn't that busy when we arrived, but this place can get packed. Just know it's worth the wait because you definitely get way more food than you expect. The diner has a hometown feel as well. This time around, I ordered the Bissell Breakfast. I substituted the pancakes and toast for a waffle. My sister had the avocado toast. Both were delicious! Again, if you're hungry come here because you're definitely getting more bang for your buck. Shout out to Rod our waiter that took very good care of us! If you're in town visiting, ask for him. Thanks again for a great experience. We'll definitely be back when we #WantWhatWeWant

    CHICKEN CAESAR SALAD

    Second time eating here and disappointed again. Ordered the Ceasar salad and the salad came with 1 sliced up chicken breast (not enough meat) and now ceasar dressing whatsoever. Used my own dressing at home.

    Poor quality food. It's no better than cookout or checkers. They use cheap ingredients and the 2 I have been to weren't the cleanest by far.

    We visited Frog and Hen during a busy brunch rush and were seated in under 10 minutes. The service…read morewas immediate, and the atmosphere was spot-on: classic 80s hits, perfect lighting, and a classy bar area that sets a great tone. We started with the Pineapple Mimosa carafe ($18 for about 4 mimosas--great value!), but the real star was the Apple Cider mimosa we ordered later. I highly recommend starting with the cider! As a farm-to-table spot, the 30-minute wait for food was completely reasonable and well worth it. My Chicken and Waffles were cooked to perfection; honestly, the best I've ever had. My girlfriend's breakfast platter was equally impressive, specifically the house-made jam, which was a fresh, standout highlight. We finished with the Hello Honey and Cinn Full iced coffees to go, both of which were incredible. After a week in Augusta, this is my highest recommendation!"

The service is friendly and sometimes the kitchen can be slow, but the food is generally very good. The portions, to include the kids portions, are very generous.

Starting with our drinks, we both had coffee-which I would return for the coffee alone! It was bold, curious, mysterious and honestly had me asking for the name of the coffee before I left! We had a server in training, so two servers! Both were outstanding! Quick to refill our drinks and remove plates that were empty. The food.....let me just say I not only spoke with management, I also was able to speak with the head chef to give my praise. I am not one to sing false praise, trust me. When I tell you I have never, ever, had a brunch as delicious as his!!! I am a French toast connoisseur, and his was a 12/10! There was not one bite of food that wasn't outstanding. I was truly impressed, with his creativity and his attention to detail because it shined like a diamond from the front of house all the way down to the sweet lady filling the cakes when I was taking my pictures for this review! "Let me get it all full and pretty now before you get those pictures!" I mean, if she wasn't just the sweetest thing, and took 100% pride in her work. Same with the gentleman working the omelet station. He came in the day before to prep the fish (which is a long day of work!) The love they put into each dish truly shines through effortlessly! With permission, personally, I would suggest they rename their Sunday Brunch to "Soul-filled Sunday Brunch" because #1 I left ready to go to sleep! #2 I had a religious experienced during that meal, in blessings and dining I have only ever had at Church Potlucks! #3 It elevated some fancy and some common foods to such heights, I was expect to be hearing gospel music while I ate! #4 Personally, I hope heaven's banquet table is much like today's-full of love, flavor and most importantly-community! Everyone from other diners enjoying their brunch to servers, sous chefs to the top man himself-not one person wasn't smiling from ear to ear. It's been near a decade since I've seen that many smiling people all in one place! While I will have to limit how often I come for Brunch lest my clothes start shrinking! Edgar's by far, takes the trophy for elevated dining experiences in Augusta, Ga! Best of all, a percentage of all their sales goes back directly into Helms College (located in the same shopping center.) Helms college offers hands-on education in culinary arts, health services, and industrial trades like HVAC/R. Keep up the amazing work, I eagerly look forward to dining with you again!
