The Metropolitan Grill. The moment you step into the Metropolitan Grill, you know you have entered a classic steakhouse. Guests enter through tall mahogany doors to be greeted by tuxedo clad Maitre D’s. Cuts of beef are showcased in a glass display in the front entryway. Framed photographs of celebrities, sports heroes and local politicians, all frequent visitors to The Met, line the walls.

At the Metropolitan Grill, the focus is on the Prime beef, American and Japanese Wagyu. Steaks are seared over the high heat of the “Iron Wood of the World,” imported mesquite charcoal, ensuring the most tender, juicy steaks available. Metropolitan Grill Chefs personally select each cut that is served to guests.

The Metropolitan Grill’s award-winning wine list showcases the definitive steakhouse selection of premium West Coast red wines, with special emphasis on Cabernets, Merlots and Meritage.

An amazing dinning experience. The "Usual" cockatil was something else and all the dishes were very tasty. A true American steakhouse experience

Disappointed in the service, as our waiter had too many tables. My steak was over cooked, but because we waited so long, we did not have the time to send it back. We were there celebrating a birthday, and we were sent dessert from our nephew, but the waiter did not even acknowledge that until we told him about it, and then it took 20 minutes for him to figure it out. This is not the Metropolitan quality of food and service that they are known for and unfortunately this was the second visit where we experienced this slow service and mediocre food. I hope they can figure it out, because for the prices they charge they need to get back to the service and food quality that made them what they were.

What you would expect from old school steak house. Steak cooked as ordered, steak was bland. Brusselsprouts were good, carrots were overcooked. Server old school steakhouse uninterested vibe. Nothing I will remember about the meal in a week except the price.

The food, service, drinks, and atmosphere was perfect! We sat in the bar and had an early dinner before a concert. We cannot wait to come back. The carrot cake was over the top! Best dessert ever! I’m still craving another bite! Take one to go! You won’t regret it!

Great food. Great service from server. Somm not that friendly and very rushed. Was throwing cork on table and rushing away before a question could be asked. Yet when an Asian group was seated next to us, he spent all the time in the world with them.

The MG is way overpriced for the quality of the steak. We have had much better steaks at a much lower price point (all three of us ordered different steaks and had the same conclusion) My Delmonico was flavorless and needed to be salted to make it more palatable. Our server was very good. Also their policy of adding a 20% service charge which does not go directly to the server and then gets sales tax in top of it is ludicrous.
