"I had a pasta dish at lunch that had chicken in it; but the majority of the chicken was sinewy and 'grisly', I couldn't eat most of it. The pasta and the rest of the dish was good, but it would have been nice to eat the chicken as well. My girlfriend had chicken on her salad and apparently she had the other half of the one I had. It was okay, but my meals at the Met have always been better. Miss the ginger chicken."

Review 2 for The Metropolitan Grill - TD Square 8th Ave.
"I usually hit the Met a couple times a month for lunch with clients and it's always a great time. The location is perfect walking distance for anyone in the downtown core and the food is always excellent. There are two dinning areas to choose from, near the back is a little quieter and upfront near the bar is a little louder and brighter (just asking when booking a table)."

Review 3 for The Metropolitan Grill - TD Square 8th Ave.
"I've not only experienced this myself, but I've watched as other potential diners were turned away, even when they had a reservation. What's the point of making a reservation if you still won't be accommodated? The wait staff seems a little clueless."

Review 4 for The Metropolitan Grill - TD Square 8th Ave.
"The fish tacos were outstanding, as well as the soup that I had as a side. Only problem is that it took about 45 minutes for our food to come out. I do understand that it was over the lunch hour, so I was not expecting super speedy service, but I still feel 45 minutes is too long to wait after ordering. Our server was very nice, and was always on top of things. Over all, great! would reccomend to anyone!"

Review 5 for The Metropolitan Grill - TD Square 8th Ave.
"They didn't let us know that they'd lost our order or didn't put it in. Server did apologize, but a full bill was presented and no word from the manager. The food seemed ok, but by then we were hungry and late for afternoon meetings."

Review 7 for The Metropolitan Grill - TD Square 8th Ave.
"We made reservations and was quickly seated. Our waitress was fantastic. I believe her name was Nicky. She was friendly and was always polite. The atmosphere was vibrant. By the time her shift was over things changed. Our new waitress barely came around and I swear the restaurant emptied out! Around 11:00pm there were only a few patrons around. The music was GREAT! I wished they had a dance floor. I know a few of us would have stayed much longer."

Review 10 for The Metropolitan Grill - TD Square 8th Ave.
"The food has great range . . . just a bite or a beautiful meal. The prices are good, the service incredibly attentive. The manager gave us a huge number of recommendations which we selected from, saving us from a long troll through the menu. I'm sure it's louder later at night"

Review 12 for The Metropolitan Grill - TD Square 8th Ave.
"We were not impressed with our recent visit to the Met. We were sat at a table that had a wet chair and ice on the floor and water/pop under our table. They came to clean it up after we were seated. There was a perfectly good table right next to ours that was empty, so I'm not sure why they sat us at the table that had not been properly cleaned from the last customers. Our food was so/so. For the price we paid I would go elsewhere next time. Will not be going back again anytime soon."

"The music was way too loud for a lunch time. I felt like I was in a night club at night. Could hardly hear the others at our table. Had to yell to be heard."

"Steak bites were not great for the price charged, have had steak bites at other venues which were superior and larger portion for sharing to those served at Metro for around the same price."

"The fish tacos were okay, didn't like my house salad ..lacked flavour- had a lot of pieces of the lettuce core .My husband's dinner was better , He had the scallops .The waitress tried to take away our food before we were finished....wasn't like there was anyone waiting for a table. The place was fairly empty ."

"I've used the 'open table' to make a reservation for a business lunch. When Chris went there he was told the restaurant was overbooked. We got-few days later-an appologize 'note' from the erstaurant....and that was it."

Review 25 for The Metropolitan Grill - TD Square 8th Ave.
"I made my reservation on Wednesday March 6th for 6 people. I called on Thursday to confirm my reservation. I asked for 2 high top tables for the lounge. The person on the phone wanted to keep pushing the one of their booths on me. The group that I was meeting were all big guys so this would not be very comforatbale for us. So did say we would get the high top tables. When I showed up to the restaurant the host took mt name, then I was just standing there for another 5 minutes waiting. It wasn't busy, then she went to seat us in a booth in the back part of the restaurant. I told her we booked a high top in the lounge, there was 2 of them in the lounge. Her repsonse was that's reserved. I asked her what about my reservation that I made."

Review 28 for The Metropolitan Grill - TD Square 8th Ave.
"Our waitress was beyond awesome. She knew everything on the menu and the difference between "Latte & Cappuccino". Took very good care of our needs and made us feel welcome at her place. That is talent you don't see often. She was dressed professionally. Food was amazing. Music was a little too loud for my taste, but suites the desired ambiance. Will recommend to friends and co-workers."

"Once again, a very good luncheon experience - food, service and ambiance are consistently great. Our server Jennifer 311 was super! I can trust the Metropolitan Grill, it is one of my favourite DT restaurants for business luncheons. Thanks to everyone!"

Review 42 for The Metropolitan Grill - TD Square 8th Ave.
"Whether it be for a casual refreshment after work, a business luncheon, or casual dining with friends and family, I highly recommend the Met on 8th Ave. The newly renovated space is very energetic, yet comfortable and the food and service were outstanding. Great menu and beverage selection. It gets busy, and loud at lunch...and that is a good thing! You won’t be disappointed. I recommend a reservation ahead of time."
