Editorial Review for Metreon – by Citysearch Editors

In Short
The Metreon is more than a collection of high-tech-gadget superstores--it's a tourist attraction. Some serious gadget connoisseurs get the first glance at the latest trick up Bill Gates' sleeve, but most Metreon customers are movie-goers waiting for their flick to begin. The four floors of flashing lights, exciting exhibits and technological wonders bring new meaning to the term "sensory overload."

With a beautiful grassy park out back, Sony Style store inside, and more than a few decent restaurants, the Metreon has been a favorite since I moved here. I really dig walking through the place. It's clean, the theater is nice, and the place has a very positive vibe. I love coming here.

If you're looking to do some serious shopping, this place isnt it. It's more of a place to check out SONY items (afterall it IS called Sony Metreon). You can go from Tv's to video games, walkmans, stereo systems, laptops, etc. It's an attraction to see if you're in San Francisco, but don't expect too much, there isn't really anything "too" great about it. More of a video game center for kids! The theatre however is NICE!

Pros: GREAT theatre, a lot of video games
