Metropolitan Market Tacoma

"I don't know who's making the cakes here but they must be protected at all costs. This is hands down the best "grocery store" cake I've ever had. I say "grocery store" because this market is more like a delicious restaurant that happens to sell milk and vegetables. We first tried the carrot cake and it's perfectly balanced nice and spicy without being overwhelming and the cream cheese frosting isn't too sweet. Next we tried the chocolate ganache cake and it brought tears to my eyes. It's fudgey and actually tastes like chocolate. The buttercream is fantastic as you can taste the salty butter and it's a beautiful pairing with the chocolate cake and delicious chocolate ganache filling. It is cake perfection. We've also tried other things like their premade seafood spreads, apple cider and sandwiches but nothing beats the hot prime rib sandwich that they slice right off a giant herb and garlic rubbed prime rib roast at their hot food service counter. They have an incredible selection of cheese as well as a antipasto bar. If I lived closer I'd be here every day."

"I dread making trips here… because every time it feels like it cost an arm or leg sometimes both ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Honestly the selection and quality says it all. The deli section, ridiculous. The various salad bars from olives to poké, insane. And of course don’t forget about The Cookie, so good boarder line addictive. Be warned. The only reason it doesn’t get five stars is because the prices but I totally get it, especially these days. If I could win a super market sweepstakes to a store this would be the choice haha it’s a foodie’s paradise."

"My all time favorite grocery store. They have everything and their produce display is so beautiful. The way they display produce makes you want to buy all sorts of produce! It’s been 2 years since I’ve been able to find Romanesco broccoli. I finally found some here. Want to buy one of the amazing chocolate chip cookies there? When you receive it…it’s going to be warm. Oh. Em. Gee!! Prices are on the high end but stick to the sales and you may find a couple deals. This is just a beautiful store…period."

"I truly loved visiting this store it was clean and had a large variety of food items. Everything was well organized and the people were friendly this is the first time I have been in a grocery store where the produce looked all organized in a row and so colorful I just stood there and was amazed I only wish there was one of these stores near me in Florida. I will for sure return to this store when I come back in town. They had wonderful bakery items and a place u can get fresh coffee and sit outside and relax. Very nice."
