I've been meaning to check out The Met again since they re-opened after their renovations. Since it's in a prime location, I wasn't surprised that I couldn't book right at lunch - which was fine I didn't mind eating at a later time.
Even when we arrived it was still quite busy from the lunch rush, but we were seated right away. I really like how open the dining area is since they reno-ed, the private dining rooms are now partitioned with glass walls so it's not so dark during the daytime.
I was torn between getting my usual staple (Lobster Mac & Cheese YUM!) and the Scallop Gnocci, and our server gave us her input and even suggested some appies for us to try - which I appreciate. I like when the staff are knowledgeable of the food they serve.
Overall good experience, I would suggest if you go here to dine before or after nigh noon to avoid the rush
