Metro North is our go-to place before a show at McCarter theatre. We can always count on their prompt and friendly service and good food. My favorites there are the butterfish and the manchego salad with salmon on top. They make an excellent chocolate martini for dessert. It can be quite loud there as it is usually fairly busy. But they do a great job for pre-theatre. I have also held holiday/birthday dinners in the upstairs room which is lovely.

The food was great and our waiter was really good. Unfortunately, even though we had a reservation, we had to wait 45 minutes for a table .. which I find unacceptable. Of course the host was apologetic, and for some reason thought we needed handicap access to a table, which we did not. We ended up eating late which put a damper on the night. If you're not going to honor reservation times, just have open seating as people who walked in after us were seated before us.

Another wonderful evening at Metro North. Our favorite and always an excellent experience.

Quickly becoming our favorite go-to restaurant. The menu is terrific. Drink specials are great. Excellent service. Cool ambiance and vibe. Even the prices are reasonable considering what they are serving. We've been here about 5 times in the last 12-18 months, and I've never had a bad meal. In fact, almost ever appetizer / entree / desert we've ordered has been an "mmm... mmm.... mmm" yummy experience. Highly recommended.

It was our first time eating here and we were very impressed with the food. The service was excellent. Only problem was they were slightly overbooked. Although we had a reservation, we still had to wait about 15 minutes for a table. I would definitely go back another time.

This is a favorite of our group. Everyone can get something they want. The tartuffo is a favorite dessert. The wait staff always makes us feel special.

Ordered the “sizzling chicken”. Was uneatable. Basically chicken bones with little meat on them in some really sour sauce. Took it home for my dog. But he did not want it either…
