Best Seasonal Restaurants in Mt. Vernon

The food was absolutely amazing. We started with oysters, which were fresh and flavorful, and followed with a hearty bowl of seafood gumbo that was perfectly seasoned. For entrées, we tried the chicken mushroom linguine and the salmon—both dishes were cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor. Our waiter was attentive and honest, even mentioning that the bar service was a bit slow that evening. To make up for it, they graciously offered us a complimentary dessert. While the gesture was unnecessary, it was certainly appreciated and capped off an already stellar meal. The combination of exceptional food and thoughtful service made this an unforgettable dining experience. I’ll definitely be back!

Christmas Day was made very special by Sotto Sopra. From the ambiance of this beautifully decorated 1850 building, to the wonderful staff, each with a smile to greet and serve you. But the food; that was the star of the day! The calamari was exceptional and definitely not you mama's calamari! It's a must have. And the goat cheese salad, amazing! The seafood pasta was loaded with lobster, crab and shrimp, and swirled in a luxurious sauce. The pork shank with risotto was very tasty and very filling. We ordered the the bread pudding and cheesecake to go as we were so full after our meal, and will have it this morning with our coffee. I just know both will be a great start to the day. Thanks to Sotto Sopra for making our Christmas day so special.

Wonderful Christmas Eve experience at the Ruxton. We opted for a late lunch and were totally satisfied with the service, ambiance and (of course) the food. My filet was prepared exactly as requested and it was extremely tender and delicious. My wife’s salmon dish was equally satisfying. If you haven’t been to the Ruxton yet, you have to try it. You won’t be disappointed!

Great as always! Great food and great service! I’ll see you back in a few weeks!

I had a great time here and from the minute I arrived, after figuring out how to get in I was greeted and began an experience I would not forget! Both the hostess and bartender, Delonte, were outstanding and went above and beyond for accommodating my group! 10s across the board. I did not have any food but the drink were popping and Delonte did his big ones with the way those drinks were flowing. It was almost closing time and did not want to leave that’s how wonderful the hostess and Delonte were! I highly highly recommend! Do yourself a favor and go there NOW and hopefully Delonte is there!
