METRO DINER OPENS FIRST LOCATION IN KNOXVILLE

(MENAFN- PR Newswire) "I'm thrilled to bring Metro Diner's award-winning and craveable menu to the Knoxville community," said Swords, whose diverse restaurant background includes catering, sushi, fine dining and fast casual concepts. "Guests will recognize some classic dishes, but they'll be amazed by the bold, satisfying spins Metro Diner puts on them."

Metro Diner has received national praise, including a spotlight from Guy Fieri and his Food Network show Diners, Drive-ins and Dives. Known for its hearty portions and all-day offerings, the menu features a wide range of comforting favorites from omelets packed with savory meat and vegetables, to biscuits & gravy, meatloaf, and specialty burgers made with 100% Angus beef.

The star of the menu remains their famous Fried Chicken & Waffles, featuring half of a fried chicken atop a Belgian waffle, with powdered sugar and strawberry butter, served with a signature sweet-and-spicy sauce. "It's the perfect combination of savory and sweet," said Swords. "A true Southern classic that even has it's own holiday!"

Swords and his team look forward to getting involved in the vibrant Knoxville community and connecting with guests. His location also participates in Metro Diner's ongoing offer of 10% off for uniformed first responders and active or retired military members.

Metro Diner Knoxville is conveniently located in front of Crown Pointe Plaza with ample parking and easy access for guests. It is open daily from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m., with plans to extend operating hours to serve dinner in the near future. For more information, call 865-531-6216 or visit .
