Mother’s Restaurant

401 Poydras St., New Orleans, 70130, LA

Mother’s proudly serves the “World’s Best Baked Ham,” but you can’t go wrong with anything on the extensive menu. The New Orleans restaurant is also popular for the Ferdi Special — a Po’Boy with ham, roast beef, dressing and “debris” — all the extra juice and fat.

Breakfast is another favorite, with fluffy, food coma-worthy pancakes, omelets and more.

Mother’s is a cafeteria-style restaurant, so you’ll wait in line to order at a window. Get to the restaurant well before it opens to avoid a long wait. It opens at 7 a.m. daily, closing at 10 p.m.
