Make Mother’s Day Brunch, Dinner Reservations Now In Glenview

GLENVIEW, IL — Everything Mom has done over the past year of the coronavirus pandemic should add up to an extra-special 2021 Mother’s Day celebration on Sunday, May 9. To start her the day off right, how about taking Mom to her favorite Glenview brunch spot?

Many restaurants and eateries are still limiting seating, so making a reservation early is especially important this year. And if you’re still undecided about going to a sit-down restaurant, curbside pickup or delivery is an option in many places.

Some hometown restaurants here and near Glenview that are always good bets to pamper Mom include:

• Johnny's Kitchen and Tap, 1740 Milwaukee Ave., Glenview
• Wildfire, 1300 Patriot Blvd., Glenview
• Yard House, 1880 Tower Drive, Glenview
• Georgie V's Pancake House, 1139 Church St., Northbrook
• Pinstripes, 1150 Willow Road, Northbrook
• Allgauer's on the Riverfront, 2855 Milwaukee Ave., Northbrook
• Pavilion Restaurant, 577 Waukegan Road, Northbrook

But again, call ahead for reservations; some of your local favorites may be closed on Mother’s Day so the moms who work there can have a day off with their families.

Many restaurants offer prix fixe menus, signature cocktails, decadent desserts and five-star service.

Here are some more suggestions to get you started:

• Bonefish Grill, located at 9310 Skokie Blvd., Skokie, is offering its Mahi & Shrimp family-style meal for five that includes a choice of salad and family-style sides of mashed potatoes and vegetables, bread with pesto and a dessert duo of cheesecake and cookies.
• Ruth’s Chris Steakhouse, located at 933 Skokie Blvd., Northbrook, offers a prix fixe family meal for four that includes its signature Surf & Turf (a 6-, 8- or 11-ounce filet paired with buttery cold water lobster tail); a Caesar or steak house salad; and a choice of two from a list of sides that includes garlic mashed potatoes, creamed spinach, steamed broccoli or sweet potato casserole; and a mini cheesecake.
