Restaurants in Mount Vernon

“An incredibly friendly staff, fast and delicious food, and a welcoming environment!”

“Burrata catered my son’s wedding over the weekend. The food was OUTSTANDING! I loved everything I tried. Caesar salad was so delicious. There were 3 pasta dishes—Alfredo, the mushroom pasta and spaghetti with meatballs. Every single one was delicious, nicely sauced and not dry. They also passed the meatball test, so, so good. They did a great job serving almost 150 guests. Everyone raved over the food. I will definitely be stopping in for dinner next time that we’re in Ohio.”

“Amazing cuisine, super clean environment. Amazing staff.”

“Bye Bye Hog Heaven. Helloooo Willy's. Went here for a late lunch 5/31/25 with some friends, their teen-age son and a grand daughter. The meat just melted in my mouth and so chewy. That's coming from a 70 yr old toothless granny. The cornbread absolutely moist and no butter needed. The portions were just right. Service great and the young man that took our order even recommended what he thought was good. I was so thrilled with the food I got me a cornbread container to go home along with the bread pudding. We will definitely be making more trips from Apple Creek OH to here.”

“Our daughter discovered this restaurant while attending MVNU. We live 1 1/2 hours away and anytime we're in Mount Vernon we eat here. They have the best hummus I've ever eaten. It's well worth the stop!”

“Food was AMAZING, I dont usually drink but it was my stay- cation, so I got the flight and got to try new flavors that I wouldn't normally try out , the tacos were so DELICIOUS!!!! I had the steak and my hubby got the BBQ tacos 🌮 10/10 , 100 percent recommend ✨️”

“there has been a couple new pizza places came into Mount Vernon they're okay my mind and heart and soul goes right back to Ron's Pizza 👍👍💯🤗 still best pizza in town”

“The Groovy Grain Bowl did me right! So hearty and nourishing- absolutely 11/10 stars.”

“Amazing cuisine, super clean environment. Amazing staff.”

“Great food and friendly service”

“The friendly diner has grown to be a legend among American eateries but has, like many other cherished institutions, been on the decline over the last 40 years. This news has not reached the Southside Diner and they continue to crank out delicious and plentiful diner food with exceptional service, decent prices and dining rooms decorated with all sorts of local and nostalgic memorabilia.. The Blue Plate special for breakfast is my personal favorite but you can't go wrong with anything you find on the extensive menu. Don't forget to go fully retro and get a burger, fries and gigantic shake. And besides, who else is even open at 5:45 in the morning? Go, enjoy the food, appreciate the service and don't forget to get some classic candy from the nostalgic collection near the register. Yes, I highly recommend!”

“Order them almost every week just because of the breadsticks. Very friendly delivery drivers. The food is always so fresh and so good.”

“Tried the food truck this afternoon!! 10/10!! The regular size cheeseburger was HUGE! Cooked perfect! Egg rolls although not homemade are delicious!! Kevin the bartender! Very polite and quick!!! Will be back!!! DO recommend!!!”

“great little spot, easy to work with.. fresh as it can possibly be”

“In town just for today. The staff was friendly. Coffee was tasty. The muffin was fenominal.”

“This place is absolutely PHENOMENAL!!! We are neighbors to Young's Ice cream, & go there just about every day, yet we STILL never get tired of it! She is open on most days Mon-Sun. Open from 12 to 8. Sometimes there may be a decent sized line, & a bit of a wait, considering she's the only one running the place.. but it's totally worth it! Her foods are all reasonably priced, she has a very wide variety of selections, she will never screw up your order, & all her foods are absolutely TO DIE FOR!! There is free parking. Plenty of parking spots. However, there's only 2 picnic tables outside to eat at.. But let's be realistic.. Who's gonna want to sit at the picnic tables in the hot summer sun, to eat your ice cream any how?! Take it to your car, turn the radio on, kick on the a/c, & enjoy your food! Always make sure to remember to tip the lady! She works so hard, all on her own, & she is so dedicated!!! I'm sure any normal person could agree that tips for her are certainly well deserved!!!!!! All 5 stars from me, & my family! For sure! ??

Parking: Parking is free, & there are PLENTY of spots to park!

Kid-friendliness: She offers a special "child sized" cone for $1.40! Perfect size for a child! Not too much, but also a generous size!”

“Mazza's reminded us of earlier times when, as kids, our parents took us out to Marino's or Pizzuti's on the west side of Columbus for a special occasion. Good wine selection, and menu choices. We would highly recommend the Mazza's house salad. The service was great. Living in Granville made for a scenic early evening drive. It's worth the drive.”

“So yummy it’s addicting ! I get a quart every week”

“Absolutely loved the owner. Very welcoming and great selection. Will definitely be back.”

“I grab a pizza from here every time we play at East Knox Highschool. After basketball or football games and it is good! I am a pepperoni and extra cheese guy and they don't disappoint on the toppings. I really like the smaller slices to handle on the go while driving home.”

“amazing n great ppl work”

“They were fast and friendly ppl that work they”

“the food and ice cream was so good! the girls working were so sweet even though they were insanely busy!”

“It's one of my favorite shops in Mt Vernon. They always carry a great line of holistic products. I love not just the supplements, but the bulk food and teas they carry as well. Everyone is super friendly and always willing to help.”

“What a great place! Amazing food and hometown hero’s ! Helped with my brothers benefit . Thanks to all at la Paloma”

“The live music by Confederate Rose was incredible!! They put on a great show!! There weren't too many people in the bar that night though. It was a shame that more people weren't there to listen to some great music. Maybe some advertising by the bar management about live events they book might help?”

“Great service, friendly staff.”

“great food, amazing service, best place to take the family out too”

“Moo guy pan was missing something this trip. Only 3 snow pea pods but over kill on carrots. Sauce was very light on flavor. I guess I need to find a new dish next time in.”

“Very tasty sandwich, 6 inch was just enough. I sure will go there again. I wish they would fix there order thing..don't no what it's called but you can't register your name and e-mail address. I had the hot beef ({43} and husband had the Italian {13} Both were great.”

“Went to a pool tournament here, had a great night. The blowing alley was very busy. Bathrooms were very, and all of the staff with whom I interacted were very friendly.”

“In the charming town of Mount Vernon, Ohio, nestled at 202 S Main St, lies a beacon of health, community, and unwavering dedication—FitMix Nutrition Studio. More than just a smoothie shop, FitMix stands as a testament to the vision and commitment of its owner, Andrew, who has transformed a simple idea into a thriving hub for wellness and connection.​ Andrew has always jumped to help me out quickly when I’m between clients in my office. He has most certainly kept me going when I needed nutrition quickly.”

“Great doughnuts and great service! I'm always met with a cheerful greeting!”

“Nice bartenders . Long wait for drinks tho . Beer pong ,darts ,karaoke with the Krooners . Always a good time. Patio for smokers .”

“Taco Bell is always great but I just couldn't give 5 Stars to a fast-food restaurant where it cost 39.90 to feed 3 people.
Taco Bell isn't the cheapest and most delicious anymore! Still delicious, though!”

“I would go through many time a week for a coffee and get my dog some bacon and the staff which everyone is wonderful would always interact with him he would bark good bye and for years we been doing this. He recently passed and the staff was heartbroken the one young man working in there bought my order today as a gift to me for my loss. I already appreciated all the workers there but this act of kindness is just amazing. Whoever raised that young man did a great job. The kindness of people at this place is unmatched. Thanks again you did bless my day.”

“Angie is generally working the drive thru when I come through and she is just so sweet and kind! Would definitely pick this Starbucks just for her customer service!”

“Fred and Jacob are honestly the workers I’ve seen. Super friendly, understanding and absolutely great service. Never met a pair of guys who work so well and seemingly enjoy their job this much. They make the most out of the little things! Highly recommend this location just for them”

“Not even gonna lie. I'm a harsh critic. I would totally give this review a 5 star, but for some reason they always forget one small thing. Like forget a topping, or forget to add a sauce when you pay for the extra... However the pizza is always so good, and the delivery is so speedy, I refuse to give them anything less than 4 stars. 10/10 Highly recommend. I even forgot to tip one time. I called in to add one, and the manager on the phone was so nice about it. Love Papa Johns!”

“Good food but be prepare to wait at least 30 minutes longer than quoted for take out orders.”

“Fastest most accurate good chain in this county. Always have been since 1994! At least that I remember. It could be longer lol. Joe and Jen, the owners are fantastic and have worked right in the thick of it, never afraid to get their hands dirty. Always leading by example rather than just instructing and demanding! Great people, great
restaurant and great service”

“This Burger King has been here since I was a kid, and it's never changed. But I can say that I've also never had a complaint about the place either! They seem to always be clean, friendly, and prompt with providing service!”

“I want to compliment Ashley and the whole team at this location!!! I had a small problem with an online order and she graciously and quickly fixed it. The pizza was great but the service was AMAZING!! Especially during this busy holiday season when people can be grumps they were the polar opposite!!!”

“Always enjoy a visit to China Buffet. The staff walks by often to make sure you your drinks are filled and plates are clear.
Prices are reasonable as well”

“This is my first time dining at Ruby Tuesday and I had a great Tuesday night dinner. Ruby Tuesday has daily specials and deals. Their app has new user offers and points rewards.
There were many classic American entrees in the menu. Tuesday was their burger day with good deals. I would like to try something special and ordered their favorite hickory smoked salmon with unlimited salad bar. The salmon tasted a little old but good enough for me with amazing sweet bbq sauce. Zucchini and rice were wonderful sides to neutralize the sweet sauce. Salad bar was awesome. The mushrooms looked not fresh. The pasta and corn salad were my favorites. Service was wonderful. WiFi was fast. The bar was great with large screens. The price and size of food were amazing. I know Ruby Tuesday closes a lot of locations. Hope there will be more locations back.”
