★★★☆☆ 3.0 Shannon Smith · Mar 2026

I grabbed 2 fried chicken dinners on my way home from West Ashley -- one with mashed & brown gravy and green beans (dinner #1), and the other with mashed & brown gravy and macaroni & cheese (dinner #2). They both came with a big "biscuit" and a little ramekin of a sweet and quite hot sauce. Dinner #1: The chicken is overcooked to the point of a hard, crunchy crust over dried out meat. The green beans are quite good, though. There's a slight glaze on them and they either are fresh or pass for fresh. They're tender-crisp. These mashed potatoes and gravy, though... salt city. So salty, they're hard to eat, and since they're from mashed red potatoes, there are a number of black rot spots in them. The biscuit? Nope. It's very big and pretty-looking, but it's hard as a rock.

My wife and I are visiting our daughter in South Carolina, and she insisted on taking us to Metro Diner for brunch. The place was packed when we walked in, which we took as a very reassuring sign that we were about to make excellent life choices. We ordered the Southwest breakfast bowl, an avocado breakfast sandwich, and Parmesan chicken because it was brunch and brunch has no rules. Everything was delicious and confirmed that our daughter was absolutely right (we told her she could frame this moment). Our waitress, Stacy, was fantastic. Friendly, attentive, and somehow always appeared right before our drinks hit empty. We loved the atmosphere, laughed a lot, ate way too much, and had a great time. Highly recommend coming hungry and with someone who insists you go here.

We chose to go to Metro while we were visiting the area because of good experiences in the past at other locations. Yes, we put in our name and waited in the car to be called for a table. Once we were seated the waitress was very attentive even with it being so busy. The food came fairly quickly considering. I had the Bissell Breakfast which came with eggs, bacon, hash browns and pancakes. It is a filling meal and was excellent. The others also enjoyed their food as well.

I've heard positive things, and finally stopped by for a bite. Had a good grilled cheese with three kinds of cheese, and fries. Friendly service.
