Metropol Restaurant

The bistec was very tender and flavorful. The gallinita was likewise excellent. The flan and tres leches were the perfect treats at the end of the meal.

Servers are vert friendly. Help you with the menu and explains whats best match as per your dietey restrictions. Fried fish was very good but fry. Beans and rice was amazing.

Outstanding experience at Metropol Restaurant in the San Juan Mall! Wilmarie welcomed us with warmth and made the service feel personal and genuine. The food was amazing—from the crispy ham croquettes to the hearty chicken stew and perfectly layered pastelón de amarillos. The yuca encebollada, pana plantains, and flavorful beans were the perfect touch. Perfectly arranged at the plate with authentic Puerto Rican flavors at their best!

Food here is always well seasoned. Puerto Rican cuisine is that, full of flavor 🩷 But… Metropol can do without that extra SALT 🥲 Otherwise, it’s good! About the ambiance? Atmosphere? Lighting? You might feel like you're toasting under a cuchifrito light with the air conditioner turned to 5 degrees Fahrenheit (I’m joking about the 5 degrees, but it was really cold inside). Again, the A/C blasting is very typical of this island. It wasn’t a good night for me, but try it and let us know, lol.

I have nothing bad to say!!! Excellent experience from waiters to the food!!!!! You will have to wait for your food a bit, only because it is very fresh!!! And done to perfection!!! This is probably the best food I had in my life! Other than mines because I can cook!!!! Excellent place Highly recommend!!! Thank You!!! This will be my place to come every time I am here at The Mall of San Juan Hell Puerto Rico period!! When looking for authentic food and superb service. ❤️

Let's start with the beginning....I asked for croquetas de Manchego....3 tries later I still got mixed croquettes. Bacalao and Manchego good thing I am not allergic to fish!!! As for the rest of the food it was as good as chain restaurant food is.....the red beans smell like pure Adobo goya. The Lomo was nice and tender good thing I like my meat medium because I was not asked what term I wanted the meat. The pana tostones were old and hard no flavor at all. The bechamel sauce in my sister's chicken was tasteles....over all not a great experience. Now the service was pretty decent.

This place was very good. The prices were reasonable and the food was delicious. I got the Cornish hen and it was so good. The drinks were also priced very reasonably. We also got rice and beans and ceviche and everything was amazing. There is free parking in the mall garage. Would love to come back here!

We wanted to have a meal and visit a mall for some "indoor time" so we decided on the Mall of San Juan mostly due to the ratings at Metropol. It was worth it! We are a non-hispanic family of 4. One vegan, one flex/veg, a teen who is curious about different foods but mostly eats peanut butter, and a fussy teen who wanted tacos but doesn't eat fish. So we're challenging 😅 We had a wonderful server who made us feel very welcome, even though we were seemingly the only non-spanish-speaking people in the place. Plantain chips for appetizer - great start Mushrooms tartare was amazing - our vegan was very pleased, as were the rest of us who tried it. Mofongo two ways, with seafood and chicken handled two more of us. As Dora the Explorer taught me, "yum yum yum, Delicioso!" Now the fussy teen, too big for the kids menu, too picky for the standard menu. She asked for a modified version of one of their standard plates and they accommodated her...not just accommodate...above and beyond!! The chef was proud to make a custom order today, it seemed, and it was wonderful. They added some roasted plantains on the side and she even ate that. It was very nice to see my fussy eater enjoying her meal. Thank you to the team, all around. Wonderful hosts, wonderful service, wonderful food. I wish we could bring this all home with us.
