    Metro 8 was fantastic! The atmosphere is upscale but not stuffy. The staff are friendly and professional. The owner even came by to check on our table. You can tell they care about every detail. We had several appetizers - Chorizo, spinach dip, empanadas and provoleta. Delicious! I had the filet mignon au poivre for dinner. Tender, and perfectly cooked. Cocktails were great, and they have a solid wine list. They even have a party room for special occasions. A fantastic dining experience from start to finish. You have to try the Tiramisu. Tastes like your Nonna made it. We’ll definitely be back!

    Our food tasted a little like dirt. It tasted like the storage of the food was poor. Hopefully this makes since, but it tasted like the food was stored next to other food. Like that fridge taste of having your food be neighbors to something else and acquiring that flavor. It’s not a high-end restaurant but has nice vibes.

    The food was excellent. Both of us had the filet mignon au poivre. It was cooked exactly how we wanted and it was tender and delicious. The atmosphere is like an old classic steak house, it was very clean, and the service was excellent. We will definitely return to this restaurant.

    Another awesome meal at Metro 8. This is a place everyone needs to try once and then will put it in the rotation like I have. Such great service and the food is awesome. I had the gnocchi special last night with chicken and it was the best I ever had. The Chorizo appetizer was great - love the sauce. Don’t miss this place. Get there now.

    Fork was really dirty - really had food on front and back - and was replaced by server. Shrimp cocktail ok and nothing special. Cocktail sauce a little too sharp for me and thrown on top of shredded lettuce. i didn’t care for the presentation. Server very good. Entree very flavorful. Dessert good.
