   Absolutely fantastic. Food was superb. We had the cornbread, Swedish salad, the snapper and brisket. Amazing food. Service was attentive but not intrusive. Excited to return

   In a word—outstanding! This was our second visit to Metropolis, and it exceeded our expectations in every way. From the moment we walked in, we were warmly greeted by Maître d' Isaiah, who set the tone for an unforgettable evening. Our server Ira was not only attentive but also knowledgeable, offering insight into each dish with enthusiasm that made the entire experience even more enjoyable. Chef Sherry's culinary creations were a true work of art—both in taste and presentation. Each bite was a revelation, and the appetizers in particular were nothing short of spectacular. If I could describe it, it was like a celebration of flavors in my mouth— my taste buds were dancing with delight and craving more after every bite. We've dined at top restaurants all over the world- but Metropolis stands out, to us, as one of the best. Chef Sherry, thank you for making this Valentine's truly special. We can’t wait to return for another unforgettable dining experience!

   Food was delicious - corn bread, green salad, fried chicken. We booked because we had a concert at St Paul’s chapel and so were on a tight schedule. Our server was terrific and made it happen with grace. We will be back.

   The service needs to be better. Missed orders. Bottle of wine took 40 minutes to be delivered and bottles on menu not in stock.

   I had a great experience! From the maître D staying on the phone with me guiding me to find the restaurant up until I made it to the door. The great servers Beatrice and Cameron. Food was excellent! Decor 10/10 and service was great. It was a great time and can’t wait to go back.

   The food truly left a lot to be desired. The pairings of flavors were odd. The oysters though were tasty we enjoyed the lemongrass sauce that it came with.

    Beautiful room, delicious and interesting food, excellent wait staff brought down a level or two by long waits and really bad ice cream.
