Dinner Feature

Laina, Morgan, and Sophia went to try out Metro’s dinner options. The menu was extensive and described by the owner as ‘bar food with [the owner’s] own twist’. If Metro is considered bar food, then every bar should use it as inspiration!

What’d We Eat?

We started off with three small plates

– Mac ‘n Cheese

– Fried Buttermilk Chicken Bites

– Pretzel Sticks

These were all great. The Mac ‘n cheese was cheesy with bits of bacon and the pretzel sticks were perfectly soft and not too salty.

We then headed to the main courses. There were so many great options that we couldn’t choose just one, so we decided on getting two each. 

– Tuna Taco

– Vegan Taco

– Buffalo Chicken sandwich

– Chicken Stack

– Rigatoni Alla Vodka

– Wedge Salad

Everything tasted great and we had a lot of leftovers to bring home. However, my personal favorite were the Tuna Tacos; the mango salsa tasted so fresh.  A close second was the Rigatoni Alla Vodka which was very creamy and delicious.

We didn’t have room for dessert even though the choices looked amazing with options like cheesecake, apple fritter, and a brownie sundae. We’ll have to save room next time we go!
