Fried Chicken Plate
“I found Metro Diner via an internet search while traveling home to PA. While visiting the Volvo Road, Chesapeake, VA location for lunch on a Saturday afternoon, my family and I had the most delicious food and one of the most positive restaurant experiences ever. The menu choices were so vast, we wound up taking home several more entrees so we could try more. There are a few foods we miss from living in a southern state and Fried Chicken is one of them. The Fried Chicken at Metro Diner was in a word: exquisite. I sincerely cannot recommend this restaurant, service, and food enough.” – Jeny O., Chesapeake, VA ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (via Google)
