When we need an upscale grocery store experience we go here. For instance, they have types of cheese that you wont find in mainstream stores. Sometimes we treat ourselves to dinner or breakfast in the deli. Prime rib is our favorite. The deep fried cod is also excellent. There is a great selection of breakfast food. These are all pricey, but worth it. My wife goes regularly for the salad bar, which is far superior to any Ive seen. Try the cioppino! They also have poke. There is a pleasant dining area alo0ng the front window and a larger dining area open as needed. The restrooms each accommodate only one person at a time and are clean. Most weeks we will purchase a couple of gourmet desserts and when we have a special occasion, this is where we buy a celebration cake, whether birthday, anniversary or whatever. We keep going back for the gourmet desserts, sharing one between the two of us. Its quality over quantify, perfect for sedentary folks watching their weight and preventing diabetes. Check out is quick! Service is friendly. Oh yes, there are frequently some good samples being distributed. Their Queen Anne Blend coffee is delicious and they serve espresso drinks as well. OMG the selection of cut flowers is wonderful. For my birthday this year, I requested and was given a glorious peach colored orchid plant which continues to thrive. Coupons come in the mail and we use them. Our favorite is a BOGO deal on PRIME GRADE NEW YORK STEAKS!! Sometimes the coupon is for a free piece of merchandise, such as a bag of gourmet cookies or crackers or a pound of locally grown cherries, when you buy anything else. Its fun to shop the kitchen gadget department. Weve bought quite a few cool items there over the years, whether functional such as a set of measuring spoons or decorative such as place mats. Its a big department stocked with upscale, designer merchandise. the Metropolitan Market in West Seattle is a lot smaller. Last time I was there, there was no deli. With the Uptown Metro Market, were spoiled and we love it!

I love this store. Friendly staff, great parking, quality product and they make really good food on site. The only draw back (and its a big one, almost gave three stars instead of four) is that they are very, very expensive, and just went through another round of price hikes. Unfortunately, I can really only justify it on special occasions now. Enjoy their quality product but watch what you add to your basket. It adds up fast!

If you can get over the prices, theres no reason not to like Metropolitan Market. Theyre always staffed with the nicest and most helpful folks. And theyre never understaffed. Its really pleasant to go in even during the busiest hours. They have a nice poke bowl bar, salad bar, pre-made meal options, hot food, soup, cookies, a good butcher, nice cheese and beer selections, pretty produce. These guys do a good job.

This might be a place I go to more often in the future! I had never gone inside, although I had walked by before. I usually go to the QFC down the street, but the Metropolitan Market seems much bigger with more of a selection of items. Prices were not unreasonable at all -- for some things, they were cheaper than QFC! Theres also parking on the lot. Id definitely recommend checking it out.

熟食非常好吃、牛排、炸雞、蔬菜都很完美，在物價高昂的美國，買一肉三菜的組合便當回飯店吃，在配上口味無限多的優格，真的很滿足

Love love this market! They have everything, including stuff I never heard of! And its just a fun place to cruise the aisles and pick up stuff that you wouldnt normal buy (I think thats their plan and it works!). Everyone who works there is always smiling, always asking if you need help, and they even escort you to the right aisle. What service, right?

My go to place for good local organic produce. Their meat selection is amazing and always improving. Open 24 hours! Whats better than that. One secret which we found out not too long ago in their COOKIE!!! I love desserts and they sell the best cookie in town. I specially go sometimes just to get one cookie. They serve it warm so its irresistible.

I was staying in a nearby hotel and was trying to put together a last minute gift basket for my wifes birthday. The floral department not only put together a nice basket, the manager personally delivered it because their delivery service had already gone out for the day. They went out of their way to help me out. Much appreciated. Five stars!

I love this place. Their cheese department is lovely Seafood is so fresh, produce department is well stocked and beautiful looking veggies. Great selection on wine. Best of all customer service is over the top. Although there are a handful of Metropolitan Markets scattered around the county this one is by far the best store to shop at.

Another conveniently placed shopping market on the mercer street. It has its own parking for the customers, so you can shop in peace. Well there is also a QFC outlet right next to it. The one thing that stands out is the collection of food they offer. There is a selection of gourmet food just enough to stir the foodie in you.

More than helpful employees. However everything is ruducoilsy overpriced. Idk. If its worth it. Im a quiet shopper I know what Im looking for I find it, put in basket , pay and leave. Sometimes I just wanna be left alone. Which Imo at times the service is somewhat of a henderance

Metro Mart is my go to place for a quick lunch or specialty foods. They have a great selection of lunch choices, including a poke bar, and a gourmet deli. The prime rib sandwich is a favorite of mine. Their meat and cheese counter and bread selection is second to none.

Its like Whole Foods, but they also have items you would find in a regular supermarket like Safeway. The staff go out of their way to help you. Its by far the best place to go grocery shopping, but go to Whole Foods for more vegetarian options.

Very clean and nice staff. Wide selection although at a premium price. Also has an extensive kitchen corner where I bought a ton of nice basic kitchen things for my new apartment. Also recommend their per weight buffet, its pretty delicious.

Amazingly friendly and helpful staff. Awesome produce, seafood, and meat selections. High-end organic options but also name brand staples available. Great hot and prepared food selection. Prices on the high side but open 24hrs.

Place was very friendly and the workers made sure that what you needed they will have it for you. If they dont have it they would refer you to a place that does. Excellent customer service and definitely would return!

As much as I love this store and location its way overpriced! I would never do my regular grocery shopping here. I usually just go for a few specific things that I love such as their in house soups and sandwiches.

Excelente automercado grande muy cómodo y comida lista para llevar todo en un mismo sitio.

High prices ( but still cheaper than Whole Foods ) and the selection isnt quite as good as when it was a Larrys. But its quite good or a grocery store with a nice staff ( very low turn over oiver the years ) .

My favorite stop for consistently high quality produce. I tend to go elsewhere for staple long shelf life items to save money but when I need fresh ingredients for tonights meal this is an invaluable stop.

Whenever I feel I havent been ignored enough, I come here. The staff have a great way of making you feel unimportant. They dont even respond when you thank them unless they have a snarky comment to say.
