Description

Unlike quaint, formal establishments like Canlis, you can walk into the Met in the standard Seattle work uniform of plaid shirt, jeans, and dark tennis shoes and shout at the TV screen. Whether this is a good thing is debatable, especially if you're going to drop $75 on a porterhouse steak and a tumbler of top-shelf scotch. The steaks are, however, the dry-aged, Nebraska-raised (or wagyu) kind; and any carnivore, whether he's dressed in work pants and a T or a three-piece suit, will be able to taste the tender, juicy difference.

They do a great job. It�s always known as one of the best steak places in the country, not just in Seattle. They do a really nice job here with their steaks. Great atmosphere.

I�m a connoisseur of beef, and they have great steaks here. Good atmosphere. Great wine list, and anytime you put good wine and steak together, it�s a good combination.
