Mother's Day Restaurant has been a North Riverside fixture since 1982, opened by Greek immigrant brothers Pete and the late Bobby Paleothodoros and still running on the same family-diner formula more than four decades later.

A North Riverside family diner running since 1982 under its original Greek immigrant owners, known for rotating homestyle daily specials and a real breakfast program.

It's earned enough regional notice that a Chicago radio station did a feature specifically on the novelty of a restaurant named 'Mother's Day' — the kind of local-legend status that takes decades to build. The menu splits cleanly between a real breakfast/brunch program (eggs benedict, skillets, waffles) and daily homestyle specials that change by the day — stuffed cabbage, pepper steak, roast turkey with homemade trimmings — open seven days from early morning into the evening.

This is the dependable, family-run diner a neighborhood builds its routine around.
