    We had an enjoyable brunch Sunday at Mothers. We were greeted by the owner which was nice and then taken to our table. We started with amazing Bloody Mary’s. The menu is huge but we finally settled on a couple of items from the Brunch menu. Our server Gavin was helpful and attentive; he gave information when asked. He apologized for the slow kitchen and periodically checked on us after we got our orders. It was pajama day which was fun. Diners wearing pajamas had their tabs reduced by half. Our food was good, service was great. We will definitely return.

    Hi Cher, and thank you for taking the time to write us a review. We are happy to know your server was helpful, and attentive.

    Had a crabcake sandwich. It was very good. Wasn’t that crazy about the sweet potato fries. Service was good. It was a bit noisy in the restaurant on a Saturday night at 7 o’clock. The outside area was closed for a party. Tried the peach cobbler which we didn’t particularly like.  will eat there again.

    Our server was friendly but way too stretched between all of the tables to provide good service - drinks not refilled, didn't check in regarding order correctness. Since I'm the one writing the review, I get to address my dissatisfaction. I ordered a sandwich that normally comes with chipotle mayo. Having had it before, and not liking it at all, I told our server when ordering that I did not want the chipotle mayo but wanted plain mayo. When the order was brought out, there was a small cup of mayo on the side, but the chipotle mayo was slathered all over the toasted bread, on the lettuce, turkey and bacon. Since we couldn't track our server, I just scraped off as much as I could but the flavor was still there - very disappointing. Most likely a kitchen error, but, really, how hard is it to leave off a specifically requested ingredient?

    Food and server were great. Our food arrived at separate time because when the ticket was put in with the kitchen they split it up, this sucked because 1 person was done eating while we were just getting our food.

    Diverse tasty bar food menu. Beware of what you are getting in terms of events there. Trivia night, live entertainers, open karaoke mike night. Check before you go if those aren't your things. I had the pleasure of sitting at the one table where you could see into the bathroom every time the door opened which was a little ick. Maybe a screen or don't have the table there.

    Mother's North is a favorite! Great food, service and entertainment!!! Listened to The Sagamore Band all evening and it was a true party going on out on the deck! Great vibes!!!!! Music, dancing and food. Who could ask for anything more? The salmon special over veggie noodles was outrageously good!

    My ‘rare’ bison burger was so overdone I couldn’t eat more than two bites- it was so dry. I couldn’t swallow it- , nor could I cut it with my knife and fork. It was also the size and shape of a hockey puck- about a quarter of a pound. The homemade chips were delicious though. So I paid $18 for six homemade chips. If it wasn’t so busy I would’ve sent it back. I just paid and went next-door to the gas station and got a Snickers. At least I knew what I was getting there.

    First time there. Like how the restaurant is set up. We sat in the bar area. The restaurant is set up so you can see multiple televisions. There were 5 of us and we are all Washington Capitals fans. The wait staff easily turned the game on 2 televisions so we all could watch the game. The wait staff was friendly and attentive. The drinks were expensive, $7.50 for a hard seltzer. The food was hot and tasted okay.

    Great Food - Excellent service. Only negative is the noise level is off the charts. Can’t even talk to the person next to you. They have a bar where they turn the music up - and that’s fine. It is not necessary to turn up the music in the main room to an inaudible level, is a shame. Even when the crowd thinned out, you still couldn’t hear the people at your table. We eat hear on weekdays and it’s not as bad. There is no need to turn the amplifier up to maximum level With no regard to customers hearing. In any event the food, menus selection and service is great.

    Late lunch with family at Mother’s. The food and the service were outstanding. Julia provided professional and efficient service. The breakfast quesadilla was well prepared and delicious!! My sister enjoyed the turkey burger with house made potato chips. Our friend had the bison burger with the chips which was equally delicious. Mother’s never disappoints!
