Chosen as Willamette Week’s “restaurant of the year” and one of America’s “top restaurant bargains” in Food & Wine magazine, Mother’s Bistro & Bar serves comfort food classics for breakfast, lunch, dinner and happy hour. Everything is made from scratch, perfected in the hands of four star restaurant-trained chef Lisa Schroeder. Specialties include melt-in-your-mouth biscuits, tender pot roast, chicken & dumplings, and a decadent macaroni & cheese du jour that elevates home cooking to high art.
As day turns to night, the sunny dining room transforms into an elegant chandelier-laden space that perfectly compliments the beautifully crafted wine list and the attentive service. Don’t miss the special Mother of the Month (“M.O.M.”) menu for lunch and dinner, which features dishes from a different mother each month along with her unique story.
