Fodor's Review:

Recalling the splendor of prerevolutionary Russia, the opulent interiors of the Metropol hotel's grand dining hall are a stunning memorial to Russian art nouveau. The nearly three-story-high dining room is replete with stained-glass windows, marble pillars, and a leaded-glass roof. The beautifully set tables and formally dressed waiters are impressive. The chefs prepare French and Russian delicacies, such as the popular fried duck with wild-cherry sauce and a baked apple. A special chef's menu has a different theme each season. The Metropol has a wine cellar, and many diners cap their meal with wine and cheese. A grand $25 breakfast is served here daily.

  • Keep in mind: Jacket and tie. Reservations essential.
  • Credit Cards: AE, DC, MC, V

It is an awsome room - worth a look even if you don't eat there. The food is OK - the caviar is as good as it gets. The service is a joke - but hey this is Russia! Sit back relax and let your wallet take a hammering. Well worth it.
