Metropolis - Currituck County

We realize this is “tapas”, but while the taste of the food was good, the size of each plate/serving was quite small considering the price. Salads excluded. We left still hungry but unwilling to order more food

You just can't go wrong at Metropolis unless small plates aren't your thing. Starting with consistently excellent martinis and a very good wine selection. The mix of dishes gives everyone something to try. Locally sourced ingredients are a priority, so fresh NC asparagus was in the sublime asparagus bisque. Fun dishes like lamb kofta on red pepper hummus vie with more friendly dishes like beef short ribs ragu or petite crab cakes. Drop in a say hello to Matt and Mark.

Kid-friendliness: Very friendly to children Wheelchair accessibility: Ground floor

We have been going to the Metropolis for a number of years at least once a year when we have our annual 2 weeks at the Outer Banks. The food is always different and prepared very well. The same two people who own and run the restaurant have been there all these years and like to tell you how each dish is prepared.

Great selection of martinis and cocktails. Small plates were all terrific and the staff is very helpful in choosing drinks and food, never the cheapest way to eat but well worth the price!
