Review of The Metropolitan Grill

This review is of our 2nd visit to The Met and sadly we will probably not return. There were just too many unsatisfactory issues this time. First, my sazerac came delivered in a martini glass with a cherry. I was so so so very disappointed that I'm still recovering tdoay. Our server did offer to take it back and have it fixed but I declined.

Second, our appetizers were not up to par. The calamari was overcooked, rubbery and chewy. The seared Ahi was mediocre. The cuts were a bit too large. I prefer pieces I can delicately place onto my tongue rather than have to shove it into my mouth. The sear didn't have much seasoning either. I was really looking forward to enjoying the Ahi too.

Our entrees: 16oz Ribeye and Wild King Salmon were not extraordinary. Both dishes were tasty and we enjoyed it but our tab total of $356 for 4 people just didn't sit well. Hubby felt the ribeye wasn't valued at $62 for what was delivered. King Salmon was grilled to what I could have probably done.

Servers, staff and valet were wonderful, friendly and attentive.
