    I had a wonderful experience at this establishment. Our server was attentive to our needs and after sharing that we were travelers and our first time in the restaurant (and the city), they were very welcoming and explained every detail of the menu perfectly. The drinks were really good, although a bit small for my liking. I had the lobster bisque and crab cakes as starting courses and both were amazing, you could taste the freshness in both. The trio of wagyu cuts were also exquisite, I had high expectations since it was my first time trying them and they didn't disappoint (kindly asked for no sides as shown in the picture). Good for a one and done experience. Lastly, the dessert (lava cake) was sublime, and huge too. Sadly we couldn't finish it all. Overall, great restaurant. Would come again if I visit Seattle again.

    The Metropolitan Grill in Seattle offers an impressive fine dining experience, perfect for steak lovers. We had the American Wagyu Ribeyes for Two (40oz), which was expertly cooked, tender, and flavorful. However, the steak was only slightly warm — I would have preferred it served a bit hotter. The baked potato was a classic accompaniment, and the mac and cheese stood out with its creamy, rich texture and delightful flavor. The Usual cocktail was a highlight, a sophisticated twist on an Old Fashioned with Cardamom bitters that elevated the experience. For dessert, the flaming apple pie (more of an apple crumble) was indulgently delicious, with warm cinnamon, butter, and ice cream perfectly complementing the sweet apples. Service was impeccable — attentive, friendly, and thoughtful. Zoey even gave us a tour of the wine cellar, which boasts an impressive selection of fine wines. The lively atmosphere, filled with happy customers, added to the charm. The Metropolitan Grill is undoubtedly a top destination for great steaks and elevated dining in Seattle.

    It has a cozy atmosphere and decent steak. I won't say it's the best, maybe in Seattle. :) It's a good place for a business dinner or a romantic date.

    They advertise the best steak in town and I should admit they live up to it. Started with a dozen oysters, which were fresh and paired nicely with horseradish sauce. Got the Kasu Wagyu beef but my friends got the Snake River Farm filet mignon and all were perfectly cooked like each of us ordered. The service was flawless, and I ordered an A5 Wagyu infused old-fashioned, that I would certainly recommend to anyone who appreciates an old-fashioned and is having the nice steak at the same time. Finally, the dessert menu is not to be ignored, the cakes, and slices big enough to be shared by three or four people, and we thoroughly enjoyed the white chocolate coconut cake with raspberry sauce, also highly recommend

    We sat in the bar and our server Rob was amazing. The manager on duty and the rest of the staff were amazing as well. We never felt neglected or ever had to wait to order. We ordered a couple steaks on their special sheet and I ordered the Demonico (YUM!). Our sides were the creamed spinach, macaroni, and mashed potatoes. We started with the spicy fried shrimp, the bone marrow, and the dungeness crab cocktail. EVERYTHING was fantastic. The flavors were spot on. We had some drinks as well. A couple of our favorites were the Tropic Sunset and Robs signature drink the Nokesy. If you haven't made a trip here I highly recommend it you will not be disappointed. Thanks again to the staff for making our adult night out fantastic.

    We had the greatest time celebrating our anniversary here. All the staffs are very warm and welcoming. Shout out to David Garcia for always checking on us if we needed anything else, and for the great and funny conversations we had! He is awesome! Foods are so good, never disappoints! The place is cozy and classic. Always love coming back here!

    One of the finest steakhouse experiences in Seattle. The steaks are absolutely top-tier — perfectly cooked with rich, buttery flavor. I highly recommend the Filet Mignon and the Wagyu Ribeye. The quality of the meat speaks for itself, and the presentation is just as impressive. The service is exceptional. The staff is professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely attentive without being overbearing. The atmosphere is elegant and timeless — perfect for special occasions or a classy night out. Yes, it’s on the pricier side, but it’s worth every penny for a memorable dining experience. Don’t skip the cocktails either; the Met Manhattan was a standout. If you’re in Seattle and looking for a place that delivers both in taste and ambiance, The Met should definitely be on your list.

    Awesome anniversary dinner here. Love the old-school steakhouse vibe, nice martinis that weren’t too huge. Had an amazing crab cocktail, great sourdough bread with whipped butter, wedge salad the kitchen split for us. Porterhouse was delicious, sommelier made a nice recommendation on a Gaja half bottle. Very nice complimentary creme brulee on the house. 100% would come back.
