Went to Le Metrppolitain for brunch this weekend. Ordered the scrambled eggs, salmon and watercress on a croissant. The eggs were delicious, perhaps the best I’ve ever had. Croissant was soft and buttery. My companions also enjoyed their meals although the French toast with bacon was quite small. I had to remind the waitress about my french fries as they hadn’t arrived by the time we all finished our meals. Once I asked they quickly came out though.

Classic French bistro food properly priced.
They happen to be a bit heavy on the salt though. But you can let them know before hand if you don’t want too much salt. -

Although we were in and out of Le Metropolitan within an hour, we experienced lovely service and a great meal.
Portion size for the meat dishes ordered by our table were very French (ie quite small), however my potatoe and mushroom gratin was hearty and filling. It would pay to order a side of greens, however.
My French Viognier was very pleasant and the boys on the table enjoyed the Tuatara Beer.

lovely location and décor. No live music tonight. Somewhat French style on then off service. onion soup reasonable a bit sweet and a little short on flavour but v good texture. Lovely white anchovies on slightly bland roasted vine tomatoes. Main course for me was slow roasted lamb shanks with polenta chips. Meat rather bland ( this is an easy dish to do well) OK polenta chips. potato chips soft fatty not fresh. No vegetables with meal. salad (expensive mesclun with harsh vinegar dressing) ordered separately. wine list limited BUT all wines available by glass well done! Interesting French aperitifs. Cheeses disappointing ( raw milk cheeses readily available in Wellington now) crème brulee very wide and shallow disappointing. overall typical to my mind overpriced “bistro” meal which is an excuse for steak and chips at high price. Suggestion: go for coffee and the atmosphere
