Metropole Eatery - Brisbane

Busy over lunch time during the week. Would recommend ordering off the chefs specials as these meals are cooked fresh to order. The eat in options are quite generous servings.

Fast and delicious food at reasonable prices for eat in or take away. Ranges from roasts and veg to salads and Asian options of different kinds. You are charged according to the number of serves you have. eg salmon and veg = 2 serves or two salads and sweet potato chips = 3 serves.

This is like a food court, so different foods to choose from. Four of us had lunch here, one person had the rice paper rolls which looked nice, the rest of us chose from the chinese dishes. Two meals plus rice cost $9, the meal was ok but not hot as most meals from bain maries are. Quite busy so must be popular.

Searching for a lunch spot, my colleges told me about this new place. In between Ann and Turbot street is tucked away under the new Commenwealth Bank building.A newish eatery in Brisbane the concept is good. One long counter attached to the kitchen where you order anything from the multiple different types of cousin on offer. From sushi, Chinese, carvery and salad there is something for everyone. They also have coffee and a full bar With inside and outside bench, table and quick self seating is good for a group or individual work lunch I tried the "Chef's Special" pulled pork burger with sweet potato fries {extra $4). The burger was average, cold and boring. The coleslaw was mostly mayonnaise with no crunch. The pulled pork flavourless and cold. The fries were also only warm. I guess this is what happens when the good is served servey style from warming boxes. But at $16 for the meal is not really good enough. Especially as other CBD restaurants are providing better for less. However I'm sure it will continue to do well and improve as it becomes more and more popular.

The sushi on offer may look appealing but I can assure you the last 3 times I've chosen it - it was dry, not fresh and I suspect, not made the same day... the impatient Asian lady serving had my three sushi rolls dished up
