Wonderful food, kind staff, clean restaurant, updated decor, generous portions, and reasonable prices. Great date for us! My husband had the grass fed burger and very delicious fries. I may have taken a few from his plate. I had the veggie sampler plate. Highly recommend!

For this area, the food is really good. Loved the grilled vegetables and salmon. The hummus should have less olive oil. The rice needs more seasoning. Good lamb chops, but they are tiny! The place is so bright like sitting in a diner. Could lower the overheads.

Metropolis has delicious authentic Mediterranean food. The restaurant is posh and clean. The staff is polite and friendly. The chicken shawarma platter was so flavorful with three different sauces. This is my new favorite place to dine.

The gyro was delicious, I loved it. My husband had the Greek burger and really liked it too.

I went to this new restaurant a few days ago to check it out with my grandfather. Upon arriving, everything seemed to be going well, and I noticed that we were the only customers there. (Around 2PM) The hostess asked my grandfather and I if we would like to sit at a table or a booth and then kindly walked us over to our booth. Our waitress then came and took our food and drink orders. Everything seemed to be going well. Our food arrived and we began to eat.

Cleanliness:
After a few minutes or so I noticed that my shoes began sliding across the floor. Upon looking to see why that would be the case, I noticed there was very dirty water all over the floor under my booth (pictured). This disgusted me as I expect the place I am eating to be clean. I took a look under a few other booths as I was walking to use the restroom and they were also in this condition (also pictured). There were other parts of the restaurant that had crumbs or food on the floor as well, notably by the entrance seating. The mens' restroom was clean. I did also like the style of the chairs/tables/booths. They are modern and look nice.

Food:
In addition to this, the food was only okay at best. I had a chicken finger meal with fries and my grandfather had a gyro with chips. My chicken fingers were *extremely* salty and soggy. My grandfather told me that his gyro was very dry. I give a higher star rating for food however because the fries were genuinely amazing. I loved the seasoning on the fries; definitely some of the best fries I have ever had in my life.

Service:
After our waitress brought us our food, that was the last we saw of her. I had to eat a good portion of my meal without a drink as it just sat empty on the table. Never once did she come to check on us or if we needed refills, etc. This shocked me as we were the only table there. After we finished our meals, we sat for around 10-15 minutes waiting for her to give us our check, but she never came. Eventually I had to get up and search around the restaurant for her, only to find her chatting with co-workers. When I asked her for the check, the expression on her face looked as if though she forgot that we were even dining there.

Conclusion:
Overall, I think with some improvements this could be a great place to eat, but in its current state I can't recommend it. I will try to eat here again after a while and update my review with my new experience, if it is any different. I am just bewildered at how uninterested the waitress was that we were eating here. I have never in my life had to go on a scavenger hunt in order to receive my check from my waitress or sat with an empty drink for most of my stay at any other restaurant. I hope this place can improve because I think it would be adding a nice variety to the area as there aren't any other Greek restaurants.

Well decorated, but let's face it we come for the food and the service. I have been there twice now and it was great both times. Reasonably priced food, which allows you to stretch out and try some new things. Have had the regular gyro, falafel, tabouli salad. All appeared fresh and tasted great. My wife enjoyed her abundant salad too. Ate her first stuffed grape leaf and was happily surprised. Super nice staff. Thanks for bringing something other than mexican food to the area!

What a great addition to the area! They have a large menu with a good selection ranging from gyros to momos to some Indian dishes!

We ordered the momos, the gyro and the schwarma platter and enjoyed every bite!

We’re going back soon to indulge in the Indian side of the menu (expanded offerings on Thursdays)

Definitely check this spot out! It’s beautiful and bright inside with truly delicious Mediterranean food!

Had the Greek salad that was good for lunch.
Pretty nice atmosphere with a bar.
