50 Best American Restaurants near Mt Vernon

“Been here twice, and the food has been amazing. I tried the rodeo burger, deluxe, chicken sandwich and the black truffle burger. All three sandwiches are amazing. I also tried the nuggets. The nuggets were good as well. I genuinely enjoy it and the flavoring on the food doesn’t get repetitive.“

“My husband and I were at Broken Bow. I ordered at Ran & Gui's kitchen the last minute. So, I ordered whatever they had left which was the catfish bits, BBQ chicken wings, and chicken tenders. I have had catfish in the past which was flavorless. However, Ran & Gui's catfish bites was so flavorful that I didn't need the tartar sauce to enjoy them. My husband loved their chicken tenders and he mostly ate them without the honey mustard sauce. As far as the BBQ chicken wings, they were like regular BBQ chicken wings. We will definitely come back for the catfish and chicken tenders 😊.“

“Good place but has the exact same items since they opened, geez change some of the items please. Also music is frequently so loud, you can’t enjoy the meal“

“I finally came here after years of hearing about this place and trying many different options from places in New Rochelle all the way to Nyack. Although the atmosphere is minimal the food is delicious and plentiful. I felt as if I was picking up plates of soul food from my church ladies with the gospel music playing which I did not mind.

I ordered three dinners we tried the fried chicken, collards, yams and one order of mac and cheese that was a mistake we should have gotten more and order of peach cobbler. As my daughter described it she felt like eating this food was like getting a hug from a grandma! None of the food is overly seasoned which my husband and I prefer but seems to be the common mistake a lot of soul food locations are making.

There is a detour near the location which makes parking a little bit of a challenge however, that will not stop me from returning.“

“Nice little Bar/Restaurant within walking distance from the Museum of Natural History. Outdoor seated is covered to keep diners out of the sun or rain. Tables are very small, not ideal for big parties or for families with strollers.

Drinks (The Dude) were very well made (strong!) and Downeast Cider on tap was an added bonus.

Bathrooms are small but clean and sufficient.

Double Smash burger was smaller than expected but it was very tasty as were the fries that came with it. Hot honey chicken sandwich was delicious (bigger than the burger) and the truffle fries were very flavorful.“

“Went here for dinner as a last minute decision. Thankfully they still had tables available. Such an beautiful place with mix of old and new. The menu has great selections and there are daily specials for the main course and appetizers. The appetizers portions were perfect. The staff were extremely attentive but not annoying. Love the open kitchen concept. I enjoy watching everyone work together and the different stations setup. Our app choices were the crabcake and watermelon with balsamic. Crabcake was mostly crab. Main course choices were scallops and an eggplant & tofu dish.
So glad we went. Such a great experience and outstanding food.“

“I recently visited the Pancake Factory and had the pleasure of being served by J. From the moment I walked in, J's warm and welcoming demeanor made me feel right at home. They were incredibly attentive, ensuring my experience was smooth and enjoyable from start to finish. J's knowledge of the menu was impressive—they provided excellent recommendations, which turned out to be absolutely delicious. The pancakes were fantastic, but it was J's exceptional service that truly made my visit memorable. Their professionalism, friendliness, and ability to anticipate needs were outstanding. If you're looking for top-notch service and a great dining experience, ask for J—you won't be disappointed!🥰“

“Hands down some of the best Jamaican food I’ve had around here. The flavors are on point, everything tastes fresh and well seasoned just like it’s supposed to. You definitely get your money’s worth and then some. I left full and still had some to take home“

“I was very impressed, moonlighting in the bartender night life for the last 20 years. I normally don’t go out to bars. My sister and myself were down at Lenox hospital for our Dads surgery. One of the desk staff at Franklin Hotel recommended Penrose! The staff, manager and bartender were so friendly. I have to say I was very happy. I will certainly pop over again next time I’m in the area!!!! The drinks and food were top notch… So cheers Penrose to your amazing hospitality ❤️“

We enjoyed lamb lollipops, tuna tacos, barbacoa croquettes and Brussel sprouts Au gratin - all very flavorful and well presented. Best we’ve seen in the month we’ve been living here. It’s a must visit.“
