We ate at The Metro for our 20th anniversary. It was as wonderful and tasty as we’ve come to expect from them. Simply the best. Fresh seasonal cocktails, classic appetizers, and entrees cooked to perfection. Try the veal liver & onions. My new favorite! Pumpkin cheesecake and Metro bread pudding really finished things off nicely. And of course I couldn’t pass up the flight of Ports. All fantastic!
