Mount Vernon Kicks Off First Annual Restaurant Week

Restaurant Week Nov. 9-17, 2018

Mount Vernon will have some delicious deals for our 1st ever Restaurant Week. We will be serving great food, great service, great conversations and a great opportunity to bring the community together. Mount Vernon's S 4th Ave was once upon a time our Times Square. It was a place where you went and enjoyed conversations, coffee, food and fashion. Today S 4th Ave has been forgotten. We remember it and we're working on bringing it back.

Mount Vernon residents spend $36m on restaurants outside the city. Restaurant Week is the origin to making sure that our economy comes back stronger and stronger. We've seen more restaurants open like Jungle Restaurant, Flaming Grill and Steamhouse. Ripe on Sandford Blvd. has been part of the community for over 15 years.

Mount Vernon wants to shine a light on businesses that are here and build around them. Build around food, sports and entertainment, the heart of this great city.
