One of Mount Vernon’s newest spots, Cafe Fili has become one of my go-tos recently. The Mediterranean inspired cafe has plenty of dishes that always hit the spot. Recently, my Girlfriend and I stopped in for a weekend lunch and as usual, were blown away by the flavors […]
In April, The Hotel Revival opened in Mount Vernon and along with it, a top floor restaurant called Topside that has beautiful views of the monument and the rest of the surrounding area. I had a chance to pop in for dinner shortly after the opening and I […]
Cafe Andamiro has been on my radar for quite some time now. This cute Mount Vernon cafe opened up about a year ago and it looks like the perfect spot to grab a quick bite. On one of those lovely Sunday mornings we have been having, I found […]
Lately, one of my go to spots in Mount Vernon has been Wet City. Not only is the rotating beer selection fantastic but the food consistently impresses me. Before seeing a show, my girlfriend and I needed something to eat (and of course, a drink).
