    The Lobby and restaurant.
    Steven K.

    The food was very good. The steaks were very good. Didn't live the crem brüle and the fudge Sunday was ok. My Martini was good, but I was slightly frustrated that my coupon for a few drink for my status was only a well drink. Hendricks is that bougie?! Right. The calamari was yummy

    Crème brûlée tart
    Yunhea K.

    The bar was so dope, I loved the lighting and aesthetics. We sat at the bar to drink a bit and ordered some food. We had just ate dinner so I wanted a dessert. My bf got me the crème brûlée tart and it was so delicious, I got it with a little mocha and it paired perfectly. We also got crab cakes and Kung Pao wings which my friends said were really good. The wings had a kick to it but not unbearable where you can't enjoy it. It was a good experience and vibe.

    Really bad scrambled eggs which is kinda hard to do. They were extremely dry and tiny crumbles.

    I ate here twice during my stay, once for a late lunch and once for breakfast. It's your typical hotel food. The food preparation is always a little off. For instance, they offer a French onion soup in a sourdough bread bowl. I thought they'd put the soup in the bowl in a container so it wouldn't absorb into the bread. Came in the bowl. It was a big soggy mess. There was no broth. The bread was mostly inedible. I ate the crust. The green salad - great components like charred corn and avocado. It came doused in so much dressing I felt like there was nothing healthy about it. It was pretty soggy and unappetizing. Breakfast...the bacon was good. The yogurt parfait had mushy fruit and granola like it had been reused or something, maybe pulled out of a fridge it had been in overnight (a few days). It was like pulling teeth to get service. I had to get up to ask for coffee. I had to remind the server my breakfast companion ordered an almond croissant and coffee and could he check on it because he needed to be quick and cheap, which is why he ordered it. I guess they don't feel they need to give any customer service because a 20% tip is automatically applied to the bill. My advice: Pay for an uber to a different restaurant!

    Chicken salad with truffle fries
    Logan P.

    The food was good but the service was better! I came in mid April and the salad was amazing. I wish I knew her name I'm going to call her Amanda but when I complained about the truffle fries she took care of it! Don't get the truffle fries here though. They're called truffle fries because they're cooked in truffle oil which isn't true truffle fries!

    Wings were spicy
    Renee D.

    I ate here twice during my stay, once at the bar and once in the dining room. Both experiences were just okay. Bar- I arrived to late for breakfast because apparently I did not read the paper they gave me at check in with all that information on it. So I was told if I wait 30 minutes I could order lunch instead. So I sat at the bar and waited, and waited and waited. I was finally presented with a menu, a very limited menu. I ordered a cup of coffee and the wings. Drank my coffee and ate a few wings. The wings were spicy and I liked them. I wanted a refill of my coffee to take back upstairs to my room and was told there was no more. What???? That's beyond odd. Dining Room-Finally arrived in time and received a voucher for the breakfast buffet but I thought I could also order from a menu. This was not the case as a matter of fact. I don't see why it would be a problem but for whatever reason it was so I stuck with the buffet which included all the usual suspects. Fruit, eggs, sausages, bacon, potatoes and what not. Filled me up but that's about it.

    Loup de Mer!  Dynamite!
    Ariana O.

    This place a hidden gem. Incredible service from Paco our waiter. He was so kind and gave wonderful recommendations. This restaurant is located inside of the Indigo Hotel in downtown. The decor is Hollywood glam with a trendy contemporary flair. Very calm and relaxing atmosphere. We ordered the Loup de mer and Baja fish tacos. Everything was dynamite! Can't wait to return!

    Vegan Tacos (shareable)
    Crystal C.

    After a long day of travels, vegan tacos are exactly what the doctor ordered! Metropole Bar & Kitchen is conveniently located in the lobby of the Indigo Hotel Downtown Los Angeles. We were immediately served as soon as our entire group arrived and the service continued to be quick throughout the night. The atmosphere was quiet. Our table neighbors got a little loud at one point, but I'm sure it was just old friends catching up. It would be great if the restaurant had live music every evening. Other than that, my food was amazing! I ordered the vegan tacos and a side Indigo salad! Both were delicious and very filling!

    Came here for New Years Eve dinner. First off, parking is awful because it's in Downtown LA. We ended up parking in the Metropolis garage. The restaurant "validated" our parking ticket, but it was fake. We still had to pay the full $18. Maybe there was a different parking garage we were supposed to park in. Wish the restaurant had clearer instructions on where to park. The restaurant is located inside a hotel. I didn't have much expectations since there weren't many reviews on Yelp, but I was pleasantly surprised by the meal. The first course was the scallops. There were two, and they were very tender and delicious. The second course was a salad, which was just average. The main course was filet mignon and lobster tail. I thoroughly enjoyed this dish because how can you not like surf and turf? The filet and the lobster were both definitely more on the raw side, but at least it was tender. The dessert was the salted lava cake, which was so rich and delicious. Overall, I would give the food itself 4.5 stars. Ambience is a 4/5 (quite beautiful, but on the small side and a little weird since it's inside the hotel). Service would be 3/5 stars (slow service because they seemed understaffed. They also messed up the salad order for my boyfriend and almost didn't give my boyfriend the apple tart dessert he ordered). Parking would be 0/5 stars.

    Steak and Eggs
    Alexis C.

    Ate here before checking out of Hotel Indigo. My group thought the prices were a little high, but the food was delicious and satisfying once it arrived. Our waiter wasn't very attentive to our table though... there were other tables with larger parties who arrived after us and got their meals before us. It wasn't even busy around 10AM when we came to breakfast either. Our group ordered: Steak and Eggs, Central Market Sandwich, Omelette. Portions were large and delicious for the sticker shock prices. Based off the flavor of the food, I'd eat here again!

    Lemondrop martini!
    Stacey S.

    Stopped by the bar (only) a few times before going out for the day. Cool styles, some really good drinks, decent service, I would say they could be a tad more attentive but overall a good place for a cocktail. The only thing I did not like is the bar stools are made for people with small hips and long legs or something. I had to position myself in a way that kept me from sliding off the stool. Maybe the material I was wearing and the slippery material of the bar stools? Drinks are a little pricey but being from out of town I expected as much.

    Quick and easy
    Ramon A.

    Overall - Slightly better than average restaurant, a 3.5. Food - The family ordered two quick and easy meals, the MBK breakfast sandwich and a create your own omelet. My MBK was good but lacked seasoning, I think a little salt and pepper would have complemented the feta and spinach. The quick and easy looked good but neither my daughter nor wife were impressed by their orders, "it was average". My son had the omelet and said "it was just eggs" ... understood. We have been to a lot of great breakfast and brunch places, maybe this restaurant serves a better different meal. Service - Rita helped us today after a few minutes of passing us by and eventually stopping to ask if anyone else had helped us which I thought was weird, were we in your section or not. Nothing else to say here. Location - located in downtown LA, in the lobby of the Hotel Indigo. I did not see street parking but I know the hotel offers valet and there was a parking lot across the street. Ambiance - The look of the restaurant was very nice, modern and spacious with a good amount of space.

    arroz con pollo
    Cheyenne G.

    Wanted to have a little date night with my bf last minute so a lot of our favs were booked. Ended up finding this place and decided to try it out. We were not guests of the hotel we just wanted to eat and drink. We chose from what it looked like two of the best things on the menu, couldn't help but notice their other options were less appealing, their aguachile tower is not a tower, their empenadas are small, etc. but our choices were REALLY GOOD! I ordered the arroz con pollo, so fresh and tender. And my bf ordered the snapper chicharon and it was so soft and juicy. The place itself is small and cute, and the bathrooms are so clean and nice. The service was also fast and friendly.

    L.A's street tacos
    Franny Z.

    The bartenders were very nice. I ordered the Sangria and it was so yummy. The bartender even had asked me how I liked it and I loved it. For food, the bartender recommended the L.A.'s Street Tacos and the Chipotle Chicken Enchiladas. We both really liked each dish! So not disappointed and the food exceeded our expectations!

It's conveniently located to the LA Convention Center, Crytpo.com arena, and LA Live which makes it a must visit before or after an event! I am obsessed with their happy hour, which offers healthy items at discounted prices with generous portions! I have been here so many times throughout the years but most recently found myself here during a busy World Cup match! Regardless, the service and quality of food was not sacrificed! I was greeted as soon as I got there and the bartenders were overwhelmed but still friendly and helpful. I was so tempted to get a margarita, since theirs are amazing, but decided to keep it dry and just get their vegan nachos. I was able to score a table outside on their lovely patio, which felt secluded enough from the main street. My food was brought out quicker than I thought and I was delighted, as I was famished! The vegan nachos here are fantastic and the happy price is only $10, which is a steal for what you get! They are costed in the most magical concoction of a bean puree, cashew cheese sauce, and guacamole which all have the most creamy, luscious and savory flavors. It's so hearty and well seasoned and not only filling, but you feel great after. Parking is pretty easy, as there are usually ample meters available nearby. I cannot wait to return again soon the next time I'm in Downtown LA! I am hoping to try more of their vegan options and next time I will for sure get a drink to go along with their delicious food!

Overall, I'd come back for the food, but I'd probably steer clear from cocktails and order a real drink.

I ended up paying it(because they leave you no choice), but my biggest issue isn't the amount itself. It's that there was no clear notice beforehand. If a restaurant automatically adds gratuity or service charge, especially for a single diner, that should be clearly disclosed before you order or at least be prominently stated in the beginning. A 20% tip should reflect exceptional service. That wasn't the experience I had. The lack of transparency left a bad impression and felt dishonest.

This past visit I came with a large group and was still seated immediately. I didn't realize just how large it is inside, as I usually am towards the front or on the small front patio. ANYWAY The Korean wings were very good but admittedly could have been a bit spicier. The loaded fries had a bit too much melty cheese on top that oversaturated the other ingredients. The chicken quesadilla was I enjoyed but was a little basic. Last time I was here before this I had a chicken tikka quesadilla which I think was a more inventive dish that is certainly more memorable than this one. Small critiques but I do very much enjoy District and will one day come not just for happy hour. The cocktail of the day is usually good!

The only negative was the tables were slatted with big gaps, and we could see old food in the slats below that had not been cleaned out, and when the salsa spilled it actually almost spilled on my white skirt because there wasn't anything to catch the spillage towards the end of the table Parking was next-door and was paid parking only. Or there's valet. Verdict: fantastic!

You have been warned the ceviche tostada has a kick but squirt some lime on it if you need to and you will survive. As for the guacamole, it's guacamole - need I say more? For my entree I went with the snapper, which came with escabeche, lime, pineapple, cilantro, green onion, and chili rub. In the past, I've strictly stuck to their small plates and I feel that's still the way to go. Nothing wrong with my snapper, I just love all the other little plates more. I went with one other person and only one piece of cheesecake came out. Supposedly it was a bigger slice but looked like an average size to me. This cheesecake is made with manchego cheese so don't expect an overly sweet treat. I did enjoy it. But, I also ordered their flan that is only available in August and I found that to be better than the cheesecake. Get both as one is limited edition. We also got the fried chicken tacos. We were told they were pretty spicy but I felt the ceviche was spicier. They were tasty but did not live up to their oxtail tacos they used to have. Also, squirt some lime on these tacos - you're welcome. This is one of my fave places to dine during peak weather season. Go check them out. Tip: street parking is available if you get there at 5 otherwise valet is $15. Trust, you do not want to park your car anywhere other than that one block where the restaurant is located.

Now, I'll probably be a regular. Parking is going to be challenging. There's street parking and something that resembles a parking lot around back but I'll just say - if you know the area, have fun and good luck. Sat at the bar so service was excellent. Friendly. Attentive but not in a hovering sort of way. There's only so far to walk behind the bar so looking at the levels of drinks isn't really a stretch. There's other seating too - tables and booths. Music playing - not so loud you can't hear others in your party talking. A TV was on, but I don't recall if there was more than one - mentioning it in case you're thinking of going to watch sporting events. And food is served. See pics. It's not gourmet but definitely great as bar food. I inhaled the pepperoni fries and the tacos weren't bad as well. But I was there for drinks and I love the two for one special. And that it's every day. That's pretty much what I'll be back for as it's close to work, service was great and the vibe was cool. Not to mention, there's a few pours of whiskey I don't mind whetting my palette with.
