We dined at May Day for the first time recently and loved it!

Our favorite dishes included the Tremolo bread (made by a baker who grinds their own flour) with whipped ricotta and hot honey, the Scarpinocc (stuffed pasta with chèvre, corn and mushrooms) and the Chicken Schnitzel (perfectly crisp and topped with corn, peppers and mushrooms). All the dishes had a great combination of textures and flavors and were innovative without being pretentious.

We were delayed for our reservation because our day hike to Camels Hump took longer than anticipated. Fortunately, we phoned ahead and deeply appreciated that they were able to accommodate us at a later time. High points for service right there! Our server was friendly and helpful. Noise level was high. Relaxed atmosphere.

We ordered 4 dishes for a party of 2 and it was the right amount. I hope to return again on a future trip to Burlington. Highly recommend!!

Do not miss the opportunity to come to this restaurant.
They were semi finalists in the 2025 James Beard awards… And you can see why. We tried the tuna crudo (10/10), tremolo bread, fried green tomatoes, crispy pork belly (10/10), grilled vegetables and more.

Cannot recommend this place enough. Seek it out. Make the time.

Best service, best vibes, best food!

Stopped in on a Saturday night via a friends recommendation. Six hungry hockey players from out of town & we didn’t know much about Burlington. It was busy but the owner, Mathew, moved some tables around and got us seated asap. Menu here was limited but changes daily or weekly I’m told. I was starving and looking to crush & he knew the vibe right away. He went above & beyond to accommodate us; made us feel so welcome & made sure we would leave with full bellies. He even sent over some complimentary plates, checked in & showed us nothing but love. The fella is genuinely awesome. Our whole weekend was an amazing experience & the city of Burlington welcomed us with open arms. Everyone we met was here was so kind. The food at May Day was excellent & I really can’t say enough wonderful things about the atmosphere, Mathew & his team. Thank you again!

I had pretty high expectations going in given the reviews, but I was left feeling a bit let-down by the food. I had a good experience with the service and thought the atmosphere was great.

The quality of food definitely seems to be there as far as sourcing and freshness, which I love; though I just did not feel that taste, texture or prep was in the tier of its price point. The flavors seemed a bit one-note or bland for my dishes of the pork belly and the grilled beans and the preparation of the pork belly seemed very basic—the fat rendering, juiciness, tenderness, etc. wasn’t quite there. The raspberry sauce on the pork belly was very sweet and struck me as one-note.

It seemed as if they went for simplicity over creativity at least in my experience with my dishes; which some might appreciate. I left just sort of feeling like I could have prepared the same dishes for myself, which isn’t quite what I’m going for at the price point.

Even though I felt a little let-down by the food, I think this place deserves its success and would look forward to seeing new dishes. Maybe it was a one-off sub-par experience. That creativity or taste wow-factor just didn’t really seem to be there for me!

Such a great restaurant! So many delicious flavors, from the cocktails, to the appetizers, to the entrees, to the desserts. The Panzanella and Fried Short Rib are fantastic, as are the Tagliatelle and the Halibut. The menu changes fairly often but always offers such fantastic flavors. Service is always fantastic. Highly recommended

We have been here three times recently and absolutely loved it! The food was amazing—fresh and local and on point. Cocktails also might be the best in burlington …
We are pescatarian and plenty of options and the fish had a perfect sear and golden crust!
Pasta was fresh and delicious. I couldn’t remember all the dishes but the menu changes often.
Bring back the mushroom toast! Hands down most delicious thing I’ve eaten this year!

Mayday went above and beyond! Though they weren’t offering outdoor seating due to limited staff, our server was incredible and set up an umbrella just to shade our dog, Lily. The attention to detail and genuine kindness made all the difference. On top of that, the food and drinks were excellent, but the standout was definitely the service.
We had sword fish, pasta, bread, and a few drinks. All great !

This is the best restaurant in town. So consistent every time, amazing and delicious food, wonderful, warm and inviting service, everything about it. I love the decor too. The food is so freaking delicious. My boyfriend and I also had our first date here and have been obsessed with it ever since.
