"Would go back. We had a very nice meal, plenty of options, not rushed, but at times left waiting... Service was a bit slow. Four in our party. Steak - excellent, Mac n Cheese very creamy, hamburger cooked to perfection. The gluten free sole was ok, breading had a soggy texture, probably wouldn't order again. Bar selections were very good and seating and view was very nice. Would consider for pre/post movie night and they have a great bar area with plenty of seating as well."

"If you're looking for upscale Bristro food this is your place. Went with two friends for a girls night out and we had a great evening. Love this menu. All three of us had salads with Kobe patties on top. That's right. Instead of boring grilled chicken we had a delicious and juicy Kobe burger on top if our Wedge salads and they were great!"

"Love the flexibility of the menu, especially being able to replace fries with other sides for your burger. My biggest issue is that you replaced your awesome veggie burger with a falafel burger. Your homemade veggie burger was the best!"

"A friend whom I hadn't seen in a few years and I went for lunch to celebrate her birthday. We had burgers, fries and onion strings; they were cooked to order, served on a brioche roll and excellent. Our server was fabulous. She kept checking in even though our pace was slow because we are catching up. We were never waiting to order or for our check. I would definitely return."

"Expected more from this restaurant. I went to the original years ago and had an excellent meal. Had dinner with a friend and sampled her meal - both hers and mine were o.k., nothing special.
My guess is they pump out perfectly o.k. meals for the Natick Mall crowd and everyone is happy.
I won't go there again."

"I was less impressed dining there this time than in previous visits. Not quite sure why this was the case but perhaps it was being served an incomplete entree where potatoes were supposed to come with the steak (and my medium steak was well done) but came with watercress instead. Didn't crave the potatoes enough to ask waiter but it should've come with the meal as advertised regardless. Not sure whether I'd make this location a high priority choice but may relegate it as a backup if the top choices aren't available."

"Went to Met Bar and Grill in Natick for the first time last night. My gf and I both had a burger, which were very good. I could not complain about the food or beer selection. The only negative aspect to the evening was the service. We were the only two in the entire restaurant due to the bad weather outside, and our server was terrible and said a total of 3 words. He would be sitting down, and take him 15 minutes to bring a beer over after asking me if I would like another. As soon I paid the bill, and left my minimal tip, he ran right over. I would recommend if sitting at the bar, but I wouldn't recommend if sitting at a table. (the other servers most likely are better than this individual, but not worth the chance if he still has a job)"

"Waiter, salad, and desserts keep us happy but burgers disappoint.
Unexpectedly "happening" for a mall restaurant on a Sunday night at 6. Parents with kids, mostly. We were satisfied with our food (especially the pistachio- crusted goat cheese and arugula salad) and the wine and beer selection while the kids were happy with people watching, burgers, noodles and the very good dessert! Lovely waiter. The burgers need better buns! Ours were dry and crumbling and unimaginative--disappointing for a burger place.
