I've traveled a lot over the last 15 years for work and I will tell you that the food here is as good as other cities around the U.S. I'm not sure why the bad reviews from the other people but our experience was very good. The bread they serve before the meal is homemade and excellent, just like others... More

I don't understand the great reviews. The food is not bad, but not extraordinary. Very over priced! It is not on my list to return.

I have always heard how great 9th Street Grill is supposed to be....NOT...way over priced for the food you receive.....you cannot get a glass of fresh tea with your meal! The food is o.k. but nothing to write home about.

The only thing that would make this restaurant better is if it was larger and there was outdoor seating. The bread you get before your meal is to die for and the salmon is my favorite.

We aren't friends of the owners, nor were we 'special guests.' My wife and I saw the good reviews and thought this place would be a little small town gem. We thought the atmosphere was cute and the wait staff was very nice. Then the dinning experience went down hill. The prices weren't cheap. The prices are that of a... More

We made Mount Vernon our rest stop on the way to visit family elsewhere. We were checking out menus of area eateries when we came across 9th Street. Bison burgers on the menu? Very rare outside of metro areas or younger, hip communities By the way, bison meat is indistinguishable from ground beef but with a much lower fat and... More

While shopping in Mt Vernon we drove to downtown area to find a local spot for lunch, no complaints at all, very good food & pleasant atmosphere, alittle pricier than other spots, but worth it. Yummy chunky Crabcakes, potato soup & tender chicken sandwich were ordered. Will return.
