Restaurants near FDNY Memorial Wall

We truly enjoyed our evening last night. The Nobu old fashioned was phenomenal and the sushi and mini tacos and spicy tiny sticky rice was top notch! Ambiance and service was perfect.

One of my favorite restaurants in NY. Sunday brunch feels like a big extended family. Great food, multi-generations, cozy and modern with the best energy. Best French Toast. Amazing grilled cheese with tomato sandwich . It’s all good no matter when you go. Classic NY.

This was our second time dining here. We loved it just as much this time as we did before. The pastas are incredibly fresh (and not over sauced with heavy ingredients) and the pizzas have that perfect wood fired taste. But the highlight this time was the service. Our hostess said she could easily accommodate our request for a window table (of note, the window seats overlook Ground Zero and have breathtaking views) if we didn’t mind waiting 20 minutes at the bar. We did that and enjoyed 4 different wines between the 4 of us. We highly recommend the Barolo. The wait was definitely worth it because we were seated in the corner window table that felt spacious and had a fabulous view. Next we were introduced to our server Ronnie who was fabulous at helping us navigate the menu and made our overall experience top notch. Ronnie’s service was impeccable, always around when we were ready to order, but not hovering, and a fun personality as well. We highly recommend eating here next time you are downtown.

In a word—outstanding! This was our second visit to Metropolis, and it exceeded our expectations in every way. From the moment we walked in, we were warmly greeted by Maître d' Isaiah, who set the tone for an unforgettable evening. Our server Ira was not only attentive but also knowledgeable, offering insight into each dish with enthusiasm that made the entire experience even more enjoyable. Chef Sherry's culinary creations were a true work of art—both in taste and presentation. Each bite was a revelation, and the appetizers in particular were nothing short of spectacular. If I could describe it, it was like a celebration of flavors in my mouth— my taste buds were dancing with delight and craving more after every bite. We've dined at top restaurants all over the world- but Metropolis stands out, to us, as one of the best. Chef Sherry, thank you for making this Valentine's truly special. We can’t wait to return for another unforgettable dining experience!
