Metropolitan - A Speakeasy

Service and food were both even better than expected. Our waitress was very patient. She was also creative with my mothers choice of tea.

The restaurant is classy and sophisticated. The menu is limited but everything on it is excellent. The bartenders and wait staff are knowledgeable and the selection at the bar is extensive. We really enjoyed it. It’s pretty pricey so the metropolitan is a special occasion type of place for us.

The food was perfect! We love metro and their staff!

We loved Metropolitan! Our new favorite place to go for date nights!

Outstanding as always. Extremely packed on this Friday night so service was a little slower than normal - we had to wait 20 minutes for a table even though we had a reservation, but the friendly staff, excellent cocktails, good food, and fabulous live music (Austin Brazille trio) more than made up for it. The owners were on hand making the rounds as they often are. Always enjoy chatting briefly with Charlie. By far the best dining experience in Amarillo.

Excellent. Neal is awesome.

What a mess. Not one employee was wearing a mask, and when we asked about social distancing, our server said, "Oh, we never get to capacity." Well, it certainly looked to be at capacity with every barstool occupied and table full throughout the cavernous, multi-roomed restaurant. Plus, our server was nice but very slow and inattentive. The $22 steak bites came out with maybe 10 small pieces of meat, a few cheese cubes, way too many pepperocinis and olives with two Hawaiian sweet rolls you get at the store. Of course, she didn't give us the bread until we asked for bread. We wouldn't have known what was with the appetizer, because there was no description of it on the menu. It wasn't worth $12, much less $22. Plus, the acoustics in the restaurant made people have to yell to be heard. This was called a "speakeasy," but obviously the only thing the owner knows about running a speakeasy is to charge $14 for an average cocktail in a tiny glass.

Thought the atmosphere would have been more genuine... people walking around in shorts and tee's
Takes from what the experience is suppose to be.
Amarillo, TX

Pricey to be sure but excellent food and an interesting cocktail menu....service was good. There a jazz quartet playing and we were in front of them so a little hard to talk

We come here for the cocktails (best in town), but the food is top notch also. Never been disappointed here. Live music adds to a vibrant atmosphere.

Went to hear the band. Food was way over priced and average. The food in Amarillo is so disappointing. I think we’ll head to Santa Fe this weekend just for good food.

Never had a bad meal here. The service is outstanding as well as the food!

Food was great. Nice atmosphere

The space and atmosphere are very nice but this is not fine dining. Presentation missed the mark in several areas—plastic serving dishes, salad dressing in condiment cups like a fast food restaurant, and standard salt and pepper shakers come to mind. The staff is also undertrained in proper serving and clearing, and are not well-versed in the menu or its prep. The food was good but not for the price point. Everything was too heavily salted and my scallops were overcooked. At half the price, this is worth considering but it falls short of what they’re trying to accomplish and definitely short for what they’re charging.

The only reason I downgraded my rating was because I was unaware of the Valentine's Day restricted menu and the elevated cost associated with it. We went the day after Valentine's Day and booked our reservation through Open Table. Open Table did not provide information on the special menu and pricing - that information was only available on Metropolitan's social media sites, which I did not review. The meal was very good but was priced approximately double the normal price. My view is that Open Table should incorporate some method to alert folks of special events.

When you are looking for an outstanding meal this is the place. 3rd time to visit and it is fast becoming our celebration restaurant.

Great food, great drinks, but the noise level makes it difficult to talk to others

Scallops and sweet potato butternut squash grits were excellent. Lamb chops were good as well. Drinks were outstanding. We’ll be back!

Excellent food, great service and ambiance. We had a lovely dinner.

The food was truly worth the price and drive. Fit for foodies!

One of the finest dining experiences I've ever had. The food was absolutely amazing!! The owners are wonderful warm people and my waitress gave me the best service I've ever experienced in a restaurant. If ever in the area again I will certainly return!

Es un sitio diferente en Amarillo por su ambiente, su carta.

Service was great. Duck was great.

Christmas brunch with friends

The ambience is pure comfort harking back to speakeasy. The filet and salmon were excellent. We thoroughly enjoyed our evening

We love this place. Good is excellent. Service is prompt and easy going. One of the best places in amarillo.

Great food and drinks as always. Great place to listen to live music. Neal is the best bartender in town.

We loved the 1930’s vibe at Metropolitan. The brunch menu was well designed and offered great selections. The service was impeccable and all staff that we encountered was friendly and welcoming. The French toast was delicious and enough to share with all the extras included with the meal. We would love to return for dinner one night.

Our server Kensie was awesome. The appetizer were on time and fantastic.

Highly recommend this establishment in Amarillo. Food, service, ambiance - all excellent. With so many chain restaurants in the area, someone finally stepped up locally and created a treasure in this corner of the plains.

We will be back when we celebrate big nights or want fancy dinners! Very enjoyable with GREAT atmosphere,great drinks good food , and good service.

Excellent ambiance. Makes you feel like you’ve stepped back in time. Service was very good. Attentive but not hovering. Food was good. Value was what we expected. All told a very nice dinner.

Sticky date cake was phenomenal

We went for family brunch for my grandmother’s birthday and had 2 small children with us. The service was phenomenal and our waitress was very attentive without being overbearing. Everything we ordered was delicious: banana toffee pancakes, scallops Benedict, chicken fried steak, huevos rancheros, and an omelet. The potatoes are cooked and seasoned perfectly. The scallops were cooked perfectly. We also had bellinis and mimosas, also excellent. We will definitely be back!

It is always a special occasion when we are at the Metropolitian. The Food is great, the drinks are first class, and the service is personal and detailed. When we walk in the door we feel pampered yet comfortable.

I can not believe the fillet can be tough!!!
I will not recommend this restaurant.

Beautiful setting with good live music. The fish special dish was exceptional.

An unexpected find in Amarillo. If i am ever in Amarillo again i will go back. Good wine list -- included gems such as Turley Zinfandel. Nice craft cocktails. Enjoyed the lamb chops with mint mashed potatoes.

Everything went very for this Anniversary date night. It is a little pricey, but the food was excellent.

This place was very nice, and it was a great atmosphere to have a date night! Thank you for such great service!
