I did not have a pleasant dining experience and it was my first time coming here and I was really looking forward to this spot because the pasta that I was so happy to eat matter of fact I pushed people out of the way to get to it it ended up tasting awful it had a very weird taste of sauce especially the chicken it was like they had the chicken the freezer for a long time and had barely taken it out. It only got worse from here because I was going to the restroom and I closed the door or at least I thought I did because I heard the click sound, however, when I was in the middle of doing my business the door swings open and I got scared and I thought I was going to be murdered on the spot, however, I am still alive but it was not a pleasant thing to deal with because you wouldn't want to be doing your business for a person to just come and open your door as quickly as they possibly can. Do yourself a favor and avoid going to the restroom at this restroom or matter of fact just don't come. With lots of love I encourage you not to come for the sake of your health and appetite.Vegetarian options: Since I am not vegetarian I really wouldn't know what to say except...Good Luck.

Food was unpleasant to eat and when I went to the restroom I thought the lock had closed but I was wrong because someone came in and opened my door right as I was doing my business

We discovered Mount Vernon a few years ago, and have been back many many times. We love the atmosphere, the food, and Elaine behind the bar is just awesome. Every time we go, it's like coming home.Parking: There's a small lot behind the building dedicated to Mount Vernon Customers, and a small paid lot across the street. Otherwise, you can usually find a spot along Broadway.

We had a great experience here. The food was terrific. Homey, hearty and well cooked with large portions. The tips were soooo tasty with the perfect amount of marinade. Boiled dinner was large and yummy. Nice piece of prime rib too!! Staff was amazing, down to earth and social. Loved it here!! Parking right across the street!

The lobsters are cheap and delicious. There are two on a plate. The bread provided before the meal is also delicious~~ It is very suitable for travelers who come to BOSTON for the first time to try something new.
This place is a classic. Solid comfort food from the '60s. Large portions well prepared. The pork chops were outstanding with sides of squash, potato, and a popover.

The Mount Vernon has great homestyle food. My favorite is the roast beef sandwich with onion rings. I also love the french onion soup. Great food, good service and fair prices.

Wow. I ordered a lobster roll for take out during a craving on a work day. When I picked it up, the bartender told me it would be the best lobster roll ever. And yes, it was amazing! I would say the roll was a little crunchy for my taste but the lobster salad inside was fantastic. Lightly dressed and huge chunks. This was at least half a lobster. I also got my side as half fries half onion rings and both were really good. Soft batter and decently sized orings so they didn't fall apart. The bartender even grabbed me some ketchup before I remembered to ask. I'll definitely be back next time I'm craving lobster
