What a year this has been. Now more than ever would be a time to treat Mom to a brunch or dinner on Mother's Day -- this year Sunday, May 9 -- to show her just how special she is.
While many suburban restaurants are once again offering dine-in options following COVID-19 safety protocols, if you want to celebrate at home, many eateries are obliging with special meal packages to-go. Here are some specials we found, but make sure to make reservations or order to-go soon.
