Metropolitan is probably the only restaurant in Ottawa that I can go back to time after time and get good service (a rarity in Ottawa) and great food. It isn't cheap, but after going there for dinner, lunch and breakfast, I have never been disappointed.
Outstanding food included the tomato salad and the beef tenderloin. Would not hesitate going there again.
Excellent food enjoyed by all in a sophisticated setting. No hesitation in thinking about a return visit.
This place is fun. Busy spot. Lot's of choreography in this place. If you like a raw bar at good price. You will find this place is bang on. Great selection of champagne. All around great evening out.
I took my girlfriend here for her birthday. It's beautiful inside. But, that's where it ends. We ordered wine and they didn't have what I wanted so the waiter without asking brought me a different glass. I didn't want to make a fuss on my girlfriend's day so I accepted and proceeded to order. She had the fillet of salmon which was overcooked and reaked of fish which is not what you want if you are trying to represent quality. I had the steak frites which I ordered med rare. It came blue. By thre time I got it back my girlfriend was done. Way to go guys!!!!! P.S stop hiring servers based on looks. Looks don't equal talent.

The Hill Hour menu at Métropolitain Brasserie is served from 4 pm to 7 pm, as well as 9:30 pm to close. It’s fairly extensive, offering PEI oysters for $1.50, chilled jumbo shrimp for $1, and larger plates such as beef tips and horseradish mashed potatoes for $14. Although this beautiful restaurant’s happy hour menu focuses on seafood and other irresistible dishes, you can still enjoy a cocktail, beer or wine at a fair price. They have over 20 unique cocktails to choose from – all for $10, anytime.
View this Smart ListWith the pressed tin ceiling and the red banquette seating, the Metropolitain Brasserie feels like a slice of Montparnasse in Ottawa. All the classic dishes you love are available here: Coquille St. Jacques, steak au poivre, steak tartare, escargot. The Metropolitain also has Ottawa's largest fresh oyster bar. It's not cheap, but neither is it especially pricey, as far as French restaurants go. The patio is a lively spot in good weather. Open for lunch and brunch as well.
View this Smart ListThe parent restaurant of the Savoy, this busy French-style restaurant serves a wide range of sparkling wine cocktails. Sure, you can get a classic kir royal, but why not try a Champs Elysées (bubbly and Calvados) or Sicilian Kiss (sparkling wine with Disaronno and Southern Comfort)? If you prefer your bubbles straight up, there are almost a dozen champagnes and sparkling wines by the bottle, with some available by the glass. Another Wine Spectator award winner, Metro is also home to one of the city’s biggest oyster bars.
