Best Waterfront Restaurants in Mt. Vernon

The food was absolutely amazing. We started with oysters, which were fresh and flavorful, and followed with a hearty bowl of seafood gumbo that was perfectly seasoned. For entrées, we tried the chicken mushroom linguine and the salmon—both dishes were cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor. Our waiter was attentive and honest, even mentioning that the bar service was a bit slow that evening. To make up for it, they graciously offered us a complimentary dessert. While the gesture was unnecessary, it was certainly appreciated and capped off an already stellar meal. The combination of exceptional food and thoughtful service made this an unforgettable dining experience. I’ll definitely be back!

Everything was delicious staff was wonderful the ladies who took my order were very kind!! I enjoyed our conversation. Blessing to the both of them.

Everything about this place was fantastic. In addition to having the most magical holiday decor in town and a great waterfront view, the food and service were top notch. I ordered one of the specials (shrimp gnocchi in pesto sauce), which was out of this world. The bartender even indulged me by making a holiday drink not found on the cocktail menu. Parking was easy as well since Ampersea is located just outside the busy part of Fells Point. I highly recommend Ampersea to anyone who is looking for a memorable night out. It's always great, but those holiday decorations and comfort food winter specials easily put Ampersea at the top of my list at this time of year. I plan to go back next week to enjoy it in all its winter splendor one more time before those stunning decorations and delectable specials are gone.

Amazing staff! Beautiful setting. Cozy and fun for cool fall evening….but I can see all seasons being so perfect here. They had live music that was wonderful. Food and drinks delicious! All the stars. Will definitely be back!

My experience at the Waterfront Hotel was decent. Service was good and attentive. Drinks were good. Food was decent, although I only had a salad and wings. There was a live band. Definitely dive bar vibes. I would go back if in the area.
