Metropolitan Grill Review

Metropolitan Grill
$$$-$$$$, Steak, Downtown
User Rating: ***** 4.7
Fodor's Review:
This favorite lunch spot of the white-collar crowd is not for timid eaters: custom-aged mesquite-broiled steaks -- arguably the best in Seattle -- are huge and come with baked potatoes or pasta. Even the veal chop is extra thick. Lamb, chicken, and seafood entrées are also on the menu. The Met's take on a steak house is either "classic" or a caricature, depending on how you take to the cigar-and-cognac vibe: waiters wear tuxes, fixtures are made of brass and the bar is made of black marble, and the crowd is comprised of Seattle's relatively small population of movers and shakers.

Red Meat Galore!
Posted by Starlee from London, Ontario, Canada on 4/2/07
We loved the Motropolitan Grill. The food is delicious(but, expensive!. Petite cut prime rib $42.00. My husband disagrees that it is too costly!) Be sure to ask for a quiet table, because the main part of the restaurant is so noisy that you could hardly hear. We did get a nice table in the back where we could have great converstation. The wine sommeiller made a great suggestion to match our meal (and it wasn't priced badly!) Be sure to make reservations or you won't get in!!! Also, remember that everyone in Seattle eats early! Enjoy!RATING: 4.6
A great old time steakhouse
Posted by Ken from Boston, MA on 5/25/06
I have been to Seattle several times before and I have tried the big chain steakhouse and it was nice but the Met was a wonderful blend of Seattle mixed in with the great steak. I was very pleased with the wine suggestion and they really know how to dress up an iceberg wedge salad. I wondered if the petite size steak was going to satisfy up my king sized appetite but I was very happy& except that I did not have room for one of their deserts. The wait staff was experienced and helpful and the pace of dinner was just right. I am looking forward to the next time my wife comes with me. This will be on our dining list for sure.RATING: 4.8
