When traveling we like finding local restaurants to dine at, it is always lovely to get to eat at locally owned restaurants & spots we do not have near us. One a recent trip to California we stopped by Metro City Restaurant & Bar in Sunnyvale on one of the nights we were in town. It was a last minute decision on where we wanted to eat, but I am glad we ended up picking out Metro City because the food was pretty tasty. So, I wanted to share just a short review & some photos of what we had while at Metro City. Their address is 151 S. Murphy Ave Sunnyvale, California 94086.
It was located in an old heritage district tucked away in a little alley like street with several other restaurants, dessert spots & shops to browse. We visited on a Sunday evening, so most of the shops were winding down for the night which meant we had a nice quiet dinner experience. Our food arrived quickly, our service was wonderful and we all really enjoyed the dish we had selected for dinner. They had quite a few different appetizer options, but we didn't want to fill up before our main dish arrived so the only app we shared were the brotatoes which were loaded potato wedges.
They offered a lot of traditional dishes & comfort foods like chicken and waffles or spaghetti & meatballs, so there is something for everyone. As our main courses our party of six ordered the parmesan chicken tenders, spaghetti & meatballs, New York steak & prawns x2 along with the California pasta x2. My mom is not a big fan of seafood though so she gave the prawns to my step-dad. I had picked out the California pasta and it was so good! The sauce was creamy but had a bit of a kick to it, it also had green onions, mushrooms, tomatoes and tiger prawns in it.
All of the portions were filling & cooked just right, even the pickier eating in our group were pleased with how their meals turned out. All of the prices on the menu were fair for the portions you received & their drink list was great as well for anyone looking to have an alcoholic beverage with dinner. We were in California just before Christmas so the restaurant had the inside decorated for the holidays which was nice. Over all we had a pleasant experience at this restaurant and I would visit again if we happened to be back in this area.
