    My steak was perfect, however my husband’s was overcooked as were the lobster tails. The flourless chocolate cake was perfection!

    They did it again! The "Friday of Labor Day Weekend- Annual New Orleans Shrimp Boil" surpasses expectations every year. I just don't know how they do it!!! We are a shrimp boil family and I have never been able to duplicate the perfection at which they cook the shrimp. It helps that they serve actual PRAWNS! The price is so reasonable, the salads and desserts, delish, the NOLA band was great, and the gorgeous weather made this our favorite event of this whole weekend. Thanks again, Mitchell, for having this every year. We had a blast!

    MetroFresh is a place for people from all parts of the city to gather for food and friendship. The sense of community is strong and there is always a welcoming face when you enter. The food is fantastic and Mitchell Anderson is one of the most devoted and talented chef/owners I know.

    We were intrigued by the Valentine's Day dinner, we eat lunch and brunch there all the time. It was fantastic! The Lobster Risotto and the Beef Short Rib Pasta were delicious. The light jazz musicians - perfect! We'll be back

    Sitting was too close together was not able to have a personal conversation without the people to your left or right being able to hear what you're discussing. Food was fresh but had no taste very Bland. It was very affordable and the music was very nice. But it was very loud. Need to have small boost settings and need to increase the space. Wait service was very poor individual did not come over and check on us one time.

    Metro fresh is a great soup and salad style restaurant. And they also have traditional, breakfast, lunch, and dinner menu items. Very casual, welcoming, and relaxing. Great place to connect with an old friends, or have a casual date with somebody special. It is reasonably priced, and the food is absolutely delicious. You can tell the chef uses only fresh and natural ingredients, tons of taste while still healthy at the same time. I recommend the bone broth in the morning. And for a special treat at night, I recommend getting the Smashburger, which is onions & cheese, no bun, a cup of chili poured over top. A knife and fork style burger, to die for.

    MetroFresh is a neighborhood treasure. Their menu changes daily and it's always so tasty! The staff is so friendly and well trained. I look forward to their special events. We were there for the Low Country Boil. Great food, a jazz trio and a fun crowd!

FAQs

Yes, MetroFresh can be a lovely casual date-night spot. Guests praise special dinners (their Valentine's Day menu drew positive notes), live light jazz and a handcrafted cocktail program, creating a warm, lively evening. The patio is intimate and dog- and kid-friendly if you prefer outdoor seating. If you want a quieter, more romantic feel, consider an early reservation or weekday evening when the restaurant is less event-driven.

For a lively, event-driven experience, go on weekends when MetroFresh hosts special events and live music. For a quieter meal, choose a weekday, weekday mornings and early dinners are typically less busy and ideal for relaxed brunches or lunches.

Expect a warm, neighborhood-café vibe with friendly staff and community energy. Guests describe MetroFresh as welcoming, casual and lively, often featuring live music or special themed events that make it festive. It can get loud during events or peak brunch times, but many guests enjoy the social, upbeat atmosphere and fresh, seasonal menu.

Busiest: weekend brunches and special-event nights (shrimp boils, holiday events) draw large crowds and live music. Quietest: weekday mornings and early weekday dinners tend to be calmer. If you prefer a quieter table, aim for non-event weekdays or earlier service times.

Brunch is popular, guests often mention large weekend brunch groups, so plan for earlier seating if you prefer less bustle.

Portions vary by dish, but guests generally find MetroFresh reasonably priced and satisfying. People praise hearty items like the Smashburger and brunch servings, and soups/salads are popular for light meals. A few guests noted smaller-than-expected lobster portions on particular orders, so seafood size can be inconsistent. If portion size matters, ask your server about specific entrées when you order.
