$15 Pint of Fruit Containers First, the good: Metropolitan Market has a great production kitchen, a nice sweets section, theyre 24 hours, and the fried chicken isnt absurdly expensive (its hard to find passable grocery store fried chicken). The employers have mostly been great. They have a huge cheese selection, a decent meat department, and probably most things youd need, aside from "ethnic foods" ingredients (miserable selection for cooking ingredients outside of American dishes). But $15 for a prepared pint of fruit? Imagine going to Safeway and paying $15 for half of a pineapple, and a handful of berries. Because thats what youre doing, really. Imagine, now, how much seafood costs. Or anything else. If Whole Foods is "Whole Paycheck", then Metropolitan Market is " Refinance Your Mortgage". Conventional produce here costs as much as organic at the big chains unless its on sale. Completely and utterly ridiculous with their prices. Occasionally, a sale brings some items to more reasonable levels; but the basics are almost always laughably expensive. If you have a money printer in your basement, I suppose Metropolitan Market is the best grocer in the area. I prefer Trader Joes, QFC, and Town and Country Markets, personally.

Great selection of fresh produce, meats and baked goods as well as wine and cheese. We always enjoy their sushi as well. This isnt a criticism, but rather an observation. Ive eaten Poke in Hawaii and it usually isnt as salty as it is here. Ive had it a few times at the Metropolitan Market, but can only eat a very small amount (probably a good thing) at a time because its overwhelmingly salty. Perhaps this is normal and if so, its still good. All in all, this is a great market and we always enjoy shopping here. Forgot to mention the deli section. Its Excellent!

terrible management, WAY overpriced, none of their bakery items are made fresh in store - all frozen! artificial colors and ingredients in their sushi? for $16 dollars I expect a REALLY gourmet sushi roll. THE COOKIE" is a frozen dough ball made by another outside company. the company has a lot of products of sub-par quality marketed at people who have too much money to waste on things that are literally 20% cheaper at even whole foods! stop wasting money at this fraud "boutique" grocery outlet.

Awesome place, if you have lots of discretionary income. Prices on pretty much everything is half-again than any other store...and thats for the same stuff. I can understand their charging more for the food they make with high quality ingredients; but almost twice as much for regular grocery items? Nah...not worth it to me. Howevet,the 4 star rating indicates that I recognize and appreciate much of what the store is all about. Good sushi, lots of variety, friendly, attentive service.

Great place if youre running in to get hot food for breakfast, but this place has by far THE WORST deli counter customer service of ANYWHERE I have ever visited in the States. Second star for a decent beer selection.

I think this is even more expense than whole foods and pcc. But the food is great. Quality is good. I pick up ready made meals at least once a week here. And this super hot guy with a man bun works at the deli. Yum.

Met Market always feels like a community store. I know a lot of the employees by name and they all enjoy working there. Prices are more expensive but you get what you pay for. Great local store, love coming here.

Upscale grocery store with great produce, butcher, and take-away options. Expensive yet extensive selection with high-end and local products. Customer service needs improvement. Get The Cookie!

Amazing produce as well as everything else including the employees. Love your West Seattle store. However, we need a Metropolitan Market in Maple Valley. Please, please, please!!

This high-end grocer has a good selection of items that are harder to find at other grocery stores. They have a great selection of coffee from local roasters.

Its worth it to pay a little more than the other grocery stores in the neighborhood. The quality and service easily outshine all others.
