Just love this place. No need to drop a star because it’s expensive. So what? Quality is expensive, I also love grocery outlet but for different reasons :)First of all their salad and hot bar is very good. Fruit and veg are great, coffee bar and patisserie is above average.The kicker, and I say this with the utmost sincerity, if you want a slice of pizza this is so the go to place! It is a taste of Italy. Simple, hot and delicious. The flavors are authentically Italian. Do not miss it!

Bar none, my favorite high end grocery shopping experience. Not to be missed is the cheese section, and the amazing cookie. Seriously, if you need a reason to go, get the cookie.

Love love love this market!! Yes, pricier but the quality of items and deli foods is fantastic! Produce is amazing. Bakery items are tops. Flower arrangements are incredible. And I love the cashiers, many have been their since the opening and I love seeing their friendly faces over the years!

Metropolitan market is one of the nicest prettiest and nicest staffed supermarkets Ive ever been in. The bakery display is off the hook.

Not my go to supermarket. I have bought a couple of things from here . Their food is more expensive than other places and it’s not out of the ordinary. Definitely not a place I recommend if you go to the supermarket 2-3 times a week

How does one properly rate a grocery store? Selection is no different than most full sized grocery stores - fresh produce and well displayed. All your departments of breads, wines, meats, cheese, snacks etc - Met Market even has hot foods, cold food buffet, premade meals ready to go etc. What would set them apart is their famous The Cookie - which in my initial visit I was less than impressed, that was until I had a fresh baked one and it is a game changer.Pricing is above par but you can see the difference in facility and quality. I havent had any issues with staff (as mentioned in other reviews) and Ive always found things Ive needed here. Its a bit further out of the way compared to other options for me so I only come by here when I specifically want The Cookie - if you dont know why Ive mentioned this twice, you really need to go and find out yourself. ;)

Fantastic grocery store. Produce is mostly local and always delicious. Their prepared foods and bakery are top notch (though a bit pricey). I also love the flowers here. They have premade bouquets that last an impressively long time.

Tracy at the deli is amazing! She gives great customer care & pays attention to detail. I was very pleased with my experience because of her! I have never shopped here until the other day but will be coming back thanks to Tracy! I didnt feel rushed even though she was very busy - she handles herself very professionally & with a joyful attitude(what a plus)! If I had any position available I would steal her away!!!!! Tracy deserves a million stars!!

Came here during the lunch rush and it was extremely busy. The atmosphere was clean and welcoming, the staff were friendly and kind, we experienced very long wait times which made it appear that they were understaffed.

5 star store at a 5 star price. So many different treats. Bakery is very nice.

Wi
Review №16

Not many options, quite expensive, poor layout, again-really expensive, consistently not a busy store which isn’t a good sign, and their bakery is very limited- couldn’t even get a birthday cake in store (they have VERY VERY expensive small cakes in the bakery 😒)! Also unfriendly staff but that is a common theme in the reviews.

Clean and affordable ( better than whole foods) with a great selection. And the bakery / cafe has two stories and is the perfect spot for any meeting!

One of the most stylish centers of food in our area. I say centers of food because the market is only part of it. Theres a pizza cafe here as well. Everything is beautifully curated and presented here.

Excellent produce quality, very clean and well maintained - though slightly expensive (which makes sense since they are open 24/7). Very conveniently located at the Sammamish Town-center!

They consistently have great selections of food, drinks, and snacks. The hours of operations are also very generous, and the employees are friendly throughout. I always recommend the pizza or their signature cookie.

High quality grocery. The hot food is very good. I would say restaurant quality and cheaper than a typical restaurant but more expensive than making it yourself. The sushi rice tasted a little old.

Review №33

Great place for a good variety of things. Whether grabbing lunch (their food court is extensive) or grabbing prep for dinner, all of it is a good price. The staff are always patient and helpful too. And the food itself is rather tasty. Would recommend for shopping, or a meal.

Review №35

Very clean store, Very friendly and polite staff willing to assist in all your shopping needs.I was amazed how the crew in the meat department would cut pieces for me and even call their supplier to get me what I am looking for. Companies as such are the only ones who would survive the decline of the retail industry.Thanks and OUTSTANDING job guys, please keep it up.YOU WONT REGRET IT.

Review №36

I really like this grocery store but am always disappointed at how dried out and unappetizing their hot food deli is. They offer some good dishes that I would try but they always look like theyve been sitting there an hour. For that price per pound I just end up getting something elsewhere. A shame.

I can get into so much trouble in this store. Everything is yummy. Try the crab cakes or pick up some ready to eat comice pears. My favorite place to shop for special parties.

If only distribution of the quality goods this store provides is available locally to our inner city, think of all the lives this nutrients could save. We need to stop castling this type of market to upper class of societie. Lets find a way to open up subdivisions of this model capable to store a 711 sized or liquor store sized outlet. Get rid of the bad and install the good for the majority. If someone can fund it I can build it, Together, we can change our path to bright future. (:

Worst customer service Ive experienced in all my life. I had 4 straight employees treat me like trash in a 20 minute period. I will never shop here again!

Review №45

Unbelievable bad service at the deli. 9am on a Friday. I stood patiently for 3 minutes waiting for an employee to finish making a pizza. At 3 min, a second employee walked over to the first and both went on break without speaking to me or a second customer, leaving the deli completely unattended. You dont have a job if you dont have customers. No other employees in sight working in the store other than the coffee shop and registers.

Review №46

I love this store! One of my favorite items are the farm fresh eggs that I get to pick out myself - without getting any feathers ruffled. Heh! I also love their bulk spice section. Mulled cider, here I come! There are so many great items throughout the store and the staff there are friendly and very helpful. Its a pleasant environment, very clean and well organized. They also have a large prepared foods/deli section for some great fast food/take out dining options.

Review №47

We find this place super expensive for regular groceries. But its a nice complement. We specifically go here for desserts, interesting breads and fruits. They have a nice selection of jams and cheeses. Their hot bar is a good dinner option. I dont find much there since I am vegetarian but my husband and friends do.

Has a pretty good selection and is very well organized. They give out samples and their the cookie is to die for. However, its a little bit on the higher end for prices, though not as outrageous as city prices.

A wonderland of scrumptious choices! If you are giving a party, or looking for a delicious ready made meal this is your place. Of you are a cook youll find all kinds of inspiration here, unusual ingredients, spices, wines, sauces, and plenty of marinades, good meats and blended rubs. Even the flowers are special here!

My favorite place to shop for good foods. The staff feel like family to me now and are always extremely kind and helpful. Look for Ben in the beer department he knows it all and will help you with any questions. Can’t give enough praise to how much of a well oiled machine this store is. Don’t change

Wonderful market; incredible variety. Organic and high end next to affordable normal stuff next to tiny local brands. A one stop shop of amazement and deliciousness. Oh, plus great prepared foods, coffee and The Cookie. So happy to have them here in Sammamish! Employees have all been super friendly, helpful and smiling too.

I love this place. The quality in the produce and butcher are top notch. Some of the products are a bit over priced but when you time your shopping with their sales, its actually not expensive.

Review №58

This was our first time at this market. It has a variety of meat, seafood, cheese, already made food and the basic items you would need around the house! It is a little pricy but quality is worth it. Mostly everyone we spoke with was pleasant. However checkout seemed to be in a bad mood and was pretty short with us. Not sure why! It was our first time going through and we did have a full cart maybe she didn’t want to go through and scan everything. Check out is the last interaction for every customer who walks through the door. Start with a smile end with a smile. Maybe next time will be different.I’d also give them a 4.5 the store it self was great.

Review №59

While this place is pricey, the quality cant be beat and the service is impeccable. They are also open 24/7 which is so helpful! Everything from an extensive wine and liquor selection to produce that is picture perfect to pizza and pastries that will wow you, this is a great store. Oh, and the meat and seafood is tops!

First time there. Wanted some scallops and the butcher was cleaning up the garbage with blue gloves on. He used the same gloves to take some scallops and handed to me. Thank you very much. Last time there. Pricey too. How do they manage to stay in business with Safeway down a few blocks?

Bought a rotisserie chicken from here today and couldnt eat it because it was half cooked and was still bloody on the inside.checked the olive oils hoping I could find good quality and found two Italian brand lots expired but still on the shelf for sale.Never going back again.. Wholefoods is far superior in quality and value.

I love this place, everything is amazing. but one worker is terrible there, her hair is straight white and she looks to be in her 60’s she always seems to have a terrible attitude and is a bad mood. she will always suspect people/me of stealing even though i have all my food right in front of her. please talk to her, thanks

Review №67

It is new and clean, the store is well organized with focus being on prepared foods most of the time either ready to cook or ready to eat. Obviously prices are on the higher side as with other Metropolitan Market but the quality of ready to eat/cook foods make up for the difference. Make sure to park at the entry level since elevators were really slow.

Review №73

Go for the Chocolate Chip Cookie! Probably 1000 calories, bout worth it. Very High End products at top prices. What you buy will be worth it. What you dont may be cheaper elsewhere, but it may not be as high quality. Great variety of products not found elsewhere too.

Review №74

Upscale grocery store comes to the plateau.This is a good balance between high quality and quantity. We can generally find whatever we need, but we can also get some nice items like sliced Salumi salami, various wines or champagne, and of course when in season the Peach o Rama peaches.Our kids love the buffet and prepared foods, this has become a frequent weekend lunch stop as there is something for everyone.Great spot for a quick bite and to pick up groceries.

Review №75

Looks fabulous as it should on opening day; well stocked with premium items throughout.Prices higher on almost everything than any other place on the Plateau, probably by 10-20%, depending on the item.Parking is constrained because of ongoing construction & early crowds, but should improve with time.

Healthy foods and fresh eats and drinks, plus a killer cold craft beer selection. One of the best places to get food in Seattle and honestly in all of the USA and probably the world. Go now.

Really friendly staff! Grocery store has a wide variety of good produce and groceries. Many options for quick and healthy meals. The only gripe is that it is a more expensive market but a lot of this has to do with the higher quality products that are here!

Review №82

Im so glad we finally have one in our area! I love that its like a combination of a regular grocery store and like a Whole Foods. That means I can pick up my fancy organic foods and a jug of Tide in one stop. Prices are generally a little more expensive than Safeway, but can be cheaper than Whole Foods. I love the amount of local products they have available. The key to go in here is going at off times, to help avoid any parking issues and to get checked out quickly. I love that theyre open 24 hours.

Review №83

This is a high-end grocery store in Sammamish, Washington. The selection of specialty foods is great, including deli meats and cheeses. This is also the most expensive grocery store imaginable. Be prepared for a 30-40 percent markup on regular store prices.

Cant get enough of this place. Its like a fancier version of Whole Foods, which honestly we probably dont need, but still: I love it. Everything is delicious, the sales clerks are really helpful and knowledgeable about fresh produce, and checkout is always super quick cuz apparently they have super fast chip readers. 👌

Well I always complain that the east side doesnt have any good restraunts. But after today I will be going here for food hot or cold. The lamb dinner was amazing. The Poke was also amazing and Im from Hawaii and I worked at Fresh Island Fish Co. There chocolate chip cookies makes you not want to share, but you should. Lol gotta try um.

Upscale grocery store, similar to Whole Foods, large selection of readymade food. Decent selection of wine & spirits. Parking around lunchtime can be an issue when the lunch crowd rolled in. Prices are high as is the quality of goods sold.

Wonderful first experience for my friend. Everyone in the bakery, deli, cheese, seafood and meat department were fantastic, knowledgeable, friendly and generous when we wanted to sample things. I have visited countless times and am one of the many folks who waited in line on your opening day. Thank you for bringing Metropolitan Market to Sammamish!
