Mom’s the word, because Mother’s Day is this Sunday, May 11, and we’re ready to celebrate.

You supply the moms (or grandmas, mother figures, and anything in-between) and we’ll bring the agenda. Here are some local happenings that moms are sure to love.

Eat

L’Oca d’Oro | Bring the whole family for a $55 per person brunch, starting with a family-style antipasti course with six different bites, followed by a special menu consisting of tiramisu sourdough pancakes, bucatini al limone, or smoked brisket Florentine lasagna. Make a reservation.

Bright and airy restaurant interior with floor-to-ceiling windows that open to an outdoor patio area. The indoor space features a marble-topped bar with elegant white stools, gold accents, and shelves lined with bottles and decorative lighting. Tables are set with white linens, gold cutlery, and vases of fresh flowers, surrounded by red upholstered chairs with brass details. A floral-patterned feature wall adds a touch of sophistication, while the outdoor area includes woven chairs and tables under sunny skies, creating a seamless blend of indoor and outdoor dining.

Tell mom to dress up for the airy interior at Serenade.
