Biscuits & Sausage Gravy
Kia B.

This place isn't the worst or the best. The service was decent. The ambiance is stale, not very welcoming. This was my first time visiting and I wish I had ordered dinner food instead of lunch. My food was very bland. I had to sit at the table and utilize every possible seasoning visible to me...annnnd still didn't like it. My daughter said dinner food is better so I'll try it one more time at least. The food came out really quickly. That's a plus.

The food was excellent with Joanie letting me know the fries would not be gluten free because they are cooked with all the other fried options. She was helpful and was a wonderful waitress. I will definitely stop by when in the area again.

The best onion rings in entire area!

It's a Tuesday evening around 7pm. At first the was no hostess, just had to wait a short moment while she finished help a customer that was seated near the front door. She was nice and seated me right away. A short moment later my waitress arrived and asked what I would like to drink and I ordered a sweet tea with lemon. I also ordered an appetizer of onion rings. They came out literally a minute or so later! I was actually surprised at how quick it was. Heck I hadn't even figured out what I wanted to eat. I went with the meatloaf and mashed potatoes with brown gravy and green beans. First off back to the onion rings! Man I love me some onion rings however usually they are sieved super oily/greasy, this were very crispy! Well cut homemade'esk size and plentiful, a huge side dish plate! It was served with a chilled house ranch, which I usually don't touch but it seemed like a house made as it wasn't watered down and looked a little thick. It was very good and different than the normal horseradish sauce. Excellent I highly recommend the onion rings!!! The meatloaf dinner arrived shortly afterwards. Presentationally it looked good just maybe a touch to much gravy but over all it looked very appealing. The green beans were not from a can and seemed fresh. To my likening they could have been cooked a minute or two longer but to most they would have been perfectly fine. I knew I could have ordered the meatloaf and mashed potatoes without the gravy but it's was their( metro dinners recommendation) not my waitress Alana. The gravy was very salty and I like my salt. It in my opinion ruined the mashed potatoes. They were mashed with the red skins included. Perfect texture! The meatloaf was a huge let down in my opinion. It didn't even look like real meat, didn't taste like it either! Looked like a prefab concoction from the freezer or something. Not that I know for sure! My waitress, Alana was a very sweet and helpful young lady! She made sure I had all I needed and replaced my iced tea with a completely new cup and lemons without refilling the previous like some places do. She was knowledgeable able the menu and answered all my questions and even afterwards we discussed the meal. It was pleasure having her as my waitress! I hope to see her on a future visit! I knew going in the meatloaf maybe questionable as I like mine a certain way. I've eaten here before and know they have lots of good food. I was blown away by the onion rings if you can't tell! I left my waitress a great tip 11 bucks for a bill that was slightly under 30! I wish more waitresses and waiters had her professionalism. She wasn't having a great day either and still had a smile and performing top notch service! I would recommend coming here just stay away from meatloaf lol!

Flies eating your food after 15 minutes with no silverware? Yeah, that's a problem.

Metro Diner was a disaster. My food came cold, flies were on it because I had no silverware (and I'm not eating sticky food with my hands). My friend's meal was 15 minutes late, and there's avocados everywhere on the menu but none to be found. Also, no syrup with waffles? Never coming back. Complete letdown.

My second time going to Metro dinner since I moved to Columbus Ga and I will have to say this is one of my favorite spots to go with my family. All The food was good as always. I can't complain at all. The food come fast and everyone is nice there. Good customer service.

We were pleasantly surprised since we have driven by here many times, and decided to stop in for breakfast on New Years. Excellent choice! Diner has old time feel with attentive wait staff. Large portions and good food!
