Been here twice. Food was good both times. But the last time we went, we had to pay in cash, and they automatically add a 20% gratuity in no matter the party size. The ambiance is not bad but definitely lacking. At some point during the meal there was no music, just awkward silence as you could hear the conversation at other tables. If you lower your expectations, you can have a decent( not the Philly “decent”) experience.

Decided to go out for my sister's birthday. We had a party of 20 ( with no reservation ). We were nervous because they had one server. We had the BEST time ever. The Server made us feel at home and the food was amazing. We enjoyed the old school music and the very private setting. Thank you for an amazing night with our family.
Alhamdulillah, first time I visited this establishment. My husband and I attended an Iftar (Muslim gathering after we break our fast) here with other Muslim brothers & sisters. This establishment hosted an Iftar for the Muslims. It was very delicious & tasty. Atmosphere & Customer Service was AWESOME.

When I say this place was nothing short of amazing thats still not doing them justice. First when you walk in the atmosphere was bomb. Music was right ambiance was dope. Then we were seated and our waitress "Ruby" was ??. She had personality and was polite honest and energy was great. She recommended we get the salmon bites and the mussels for an appetizer. The mussels were a decent size and the sauce was poppington lol. I put that sauce on my warm rolls and asked for side of it for my main dish. But will get to that shortly. The salmon bits were fresh seasoned to perfection and the cajun sauce had me feeling like I was in Nawlins'! Again the portion size was perfect. I love the fact they aint skip on the portion size. For Drinks we had the Pineapple Ginger lemonade lets just say i asked for to go cups thats how delicious it was. For our main course my wife had the crab cakes with the garlic mash and garlic spinach. She said the crab cakes test better than Maryland. I thought that was cap so i said let me try. She was not lying. They were fire and again a nice size. My dish i had the pan seared salmon with the same sides with additional side of sweet potatoes. MY WHOLE PLATE WAS AMMAzzzzzzzzzING. The chef hands were definitely touched by the lord. I mean i was scrapping the plate and I did not care who saw it either. The deserts were ok, But everything else was remarkable. Definitely a date night vibe or Friend with Benefits type of vibe. I call this place the honeycomb hideout because its tucked away. If you are looking for some good food dope vibe and great waitress go check them out. Sidenote the owners were super nice and welcoming.

We hard a reservation for a group of 18 at 5:30pm. Upon arrival, reservation was not noted however the restaurant was empty. We ordered our food and proceeded to wait 60 minutes for food. The menu has no appetizers and the resturant doesn't provide bread or chips or anything. The waitresses were nonexistent. Eventually they brought pitchers of water near our table, but didn't refill water. During this time, there were no other groups in the resturant. We eventually started to be served food, with the first few tables getting food. Since the group was so hungry and hoped additional food would follow, they started eating. But there was a significant delay for the rest of the group to get their food. Enough of a delay that those who got their food first, were almost done when others just got their food. Overall, the food was ok, but service was horrible. Examples why they would auto charge a 20% gratuity, because I would not have given that as a tip.

Can I just say I love Metropolis!
Now, onto the star of the show—the food. I ordered the salmon and shrimp pasta, while my husband opted for the rasta pasta with double meat. Both dishes were absolutely exquisite. My pasta was cooked to perfection, and the combination of succulent salmon and plump shrimp in a flavorful sauce was a true delight for the taste buds. The portion size was generous, and I savored every bite.
As for the rasta pasta, my husband couldn't stop raving about it. The double meat option was a hit, and he loved the bold flavors and tender, juicy cuts of meat. The presentation of both dishes was impressive, and it was evident that the chef takes great care in every detail.
Overall, our experience at Metropolis Restaurant was nothing short of exceptional. The quality of the food, combined with the inviting atmosphere and top-notch service, made for a memorable evening. We left the restaurant thoroughly satisfied and already looking forward to our next visit.
