   The food and service were excellent. However there was a broom and dustpan out in the eating area which seemed unsightly.

   Excellent "pub" food. I had an outstanding cheeseburger with fries and my partner had a cobb salad, also excellent. The fries come out hot (temperature), which is always nice. Great location immediately adjacent to Washington' residence. The best thing about the place is the service. Our server was outstanding, very attentive, quick to re-fill drinks, and to respond to requests. A very special "thank you" to the restaurant manager, Mark, who greeted us at the door and checked on us to ensure everything was going well. The level of service is rare, but always much appreciated.

   Food was good but someone else in our party said their meal (shrimp and grits) was too salty. The dining area was ok, but could have been cleaner. Serving staff was very friendly. Overall, it was a good experience.

   Great food. Approximately 10 different people waited on us but we were still taken care of pretty well. Adorable decor.

   The food was delicious. I’ve been here before, but today the service was a little off. The hostesses let 3 different people cut in front of me during check in. Once we were sat, we frequently had empty glasses of tea for over 5 minutes. The orders came out without any of the special requests—a kids meal came out without any fruit instead of fries, an entree came out with sweet potatoes instead of mashed, and bbq sauce was missing from a grilled chicken sandwiche/fries request. It was all corrected about 10 minutes after the order came (well the fries instead of fruit never was), but I’ve had significantly better service before at this restaurant. I would still recommend for the food and atmosphere. I believe this is an anomaly which is why I gave 4 stars

   When we visit historic/tourist locations we make it a point to ‘lower our bar’ on food expectations- what a relief to have such a lovely lunch at the Mount Vernon Inn- We ‘slid’ in with a Last minute reservation (definitely make reservations, even if you do so once you arrive on site ) and were well served for the meal— A perfect escape from the masses of groups that can be a part of touring Mount Vernon (nothing wrong with groups- but crowds are best in small doses for us)- I just had a burger and fries - but darn if it wasn’t the best burger I have had in a while , complete with an ACTUAL slice of gorgeous cheddar and a thick tomato (where have all the tomatoes gone?) I had the okra as an appetizer- and boy was it excellent: I felt guilty not trying more traditional entrees- the selection is impressive. I would go back multiple times to try the menu items. Worth the investment in planning and $$-

   There were two visible mouse/rat bait boxes in the main dining room which was disturbing/disgusting.

    Memorable experience! Crab cakes were amazing. Butternut squash soup the best. Turkey Pot Pie incredible. 6'Dia biscuit, 3" high covered with delicious turkey pot pie filling. Toasted goat cheese salad terrific.
