Metro Lafayette

Food was hit or miss, but service was excellent, which pushed it to 4 stars Short abrasion was a bit light on season, but well cooked meatballs were hard Oysters were excellent

Great food with great outdoor seating. It seems that people come for drinks that are really significant. Waitstaff was stellar; good rhythms, with authentic care. We had the Coque au vin and the pork pliers Schnitzel. These dishes were both savory with a lot of Entree size; but they were both blandes because I think they were prepared salt-free! The aromas in each dish were very nice; the chicken with mushroom and carrots in deer juices was very good, as the braided red cabbage and carving really pleasant, but adding salt to already boiled food ruined it, in my humble opinion. We share a banana walnut bread pudding for the desert and it had strange chewing pieces in it, they were clearly not the walnuts; it was “meh”. The Capuchino served was very good. I would still return as there is a great place to stay in a long conversation about lunch, and as the restaurant is so big, there is no pressure of waitstaff to move! I have sincerely appreciated this hospitality!

I highly recommend Metro. Excellent fresh food that will not disappoint. In today's visit I had the Pork Loin Schnitzel, a Chimay Triple White (on tap) and Kentucky Sugarwood cocktail. Everything was absolutely on point, with the schnitzel being perfectly pounded, breaded and with just the right amount of butter and lemon to make every bite bright and balanced. The Chimay is great off the tap with a head that stays all the way to the last drop and the Kentucky Sugarwood went down smooth but not without tasting of bourbon.

Catalan makes this place feel like home! Every time my father comes in town, the Metro is our first station. Last night we went to dinner and just how we sat, Catalan brought my father his favorite beer. Amazing to remember how my father only visited every six months. The food is consistently good- the terrace is beautiful- but Catalan is the reason why we come again and again!

Add not to order from the menu, it was an event, but impressed everything that was brought out. Interesting and well-made dishes. IE: mushroom, caramelized onion and goat cheese at toast points. Or chicken breast sliders on rolls. Wonderful.
