About this business

"Good food" and "cheap" are words that foodies in New Orleans love to find all under one roof. The lines here at Mother's Restaurant are a true testament to the food, if not to the great prices. The lines really are long- sometimes out the door.

My second meal in New Orleans and I was fainted seeing the line out the door. But don’t let the line worry you, the are a well oiled machine, took me les than 20mins to get through and it was well worth the wait. I has the famous Refular size Ferdi Po’boy, it was massive and soo good. My lil guy (7) had the pancakes (equally massive for him) and he loved them. When we got to Tampa 9hrs later, he had to tell grandma and grandpa all about the pancakes. Fun atmosphere, friendly staff and great food.
