I was at the Metropolitan at 9 for a conference. The restaurant is right off the lobby and a great view of the street. Lunch time on Tuesday did not seem like it was crowded. Hostess at the entrance was on the phone with another customer, yet amazing to see how warmly she welcomed me. They got me a great table with a view. menu items for lunch were reasonably priced. I ordered the Herb + Citrus Shrimp and it was a fantastic and filling meal. The service was fantastic that I had to ask the person who was serving me if he was the owner. :)
If in Cleveland i would go back anytime.
