Great little diner. My favorite is their Mother's Omlet. Yum. I sure miss them being open. They are just down the street from us. read more

I had to wait over 45 minutes for my meal and the manager was very rude when we told her about our unacceptable experience. I will never eat here again. read more

The service took and hour to bring our food and upon address our dissatisfaction with the owner. She totally disregardEd our experience and threatened call law enforcement as an attempt to force us out of the restaurant. Very unpleasant and unprofessional business! read more

Stopped on our way passing through after a long road trip. We came in right before close with 3 stir-crazy kids, and while most places would send us on our way or be rude because we were holding them up from closing, April was not only welcoming but super helpful, patient, kind and went above and beyond. The food being absolutely delicious was just a plus. read more

I never liked Country fried steak... but this place made me ENJOY IT!!!...the food here is DOWN-HOME-GOOD!!... our waitress was AWESOME, she was professional, and kind, we really enjoyed it here!!!!! .. this is an everyday place where you can eat good food with everyday decent real people!!!!! We LOVE IT !!!! read more

Great food and amazing service from April!!! The waffle was amazing but so was the French toast. I know the look of the restaurant is older but the feel inside is like your family!! If you get the chance give it a shot price was good on all plates. Sorry don't have pictures I forgot with great food and being hungry.. read more

In all of this city, we have not yet found one of those greasy spoon diner type joints that is both clean and inviting with a full diner menu. It doesn't look like a giant chrome trailer, but it's a true diner experience otherwise, too bad there's no jukebox on the table. Good, honest food, served hot and Indiana friendly. Yeah, it looks like a dump, but I don't need to see cops drinking coffee to know a good diner when I see one. The tenderloin was outstanding, and dinner for two was less than $25. THAT is a diner. read more

We were very pleased with the service and the food. We both had Cheeseburgers, love the toasted buns. Will definitely be returning to try their breakfast, they have a lot to select from. We were pleasantly surprised. read more

Slightly run down mediocre diner place. The food is bland, but solid. Between the three of us, we have tried Denver omelet, eggs Benedict and French Crepes with strawberries and Nutella. Everyone was full, but there was no excitement about the taste. The service, on the other hand, was lovely and very friendly. Our meal arrived quickly. read more

Wonderful staff, great food, breakfast all day! Service was very warm and timely. Stopped here on my way driving from Los Angeles to New Jersey. Would return!! read more

I totally love this place, if you can't find something to eat here then I don't know what to tell you. The service is really good, everyone was very sweet and helpful. I wish this place is a little closer to my house I would be a regular! Delicious and reasonably priced. Reminds me of the places in Florida, a real diner read more

I would give this place 10 stars if I could. The service was top tier; she kept our drinks refilled, was very friendly and knowledgeable of the menu, and gave the impression she loved her job. The food was amazing. I had the biscuits and gravy with hash browns and bacon. Everything was perfectly presented on the plate and tasted just as good as it looked. The ambiance is family friendly and comfortable. We loved it! Will certainly be back. read more

Hey, it is a greasy spoon spot so don't expect anything more. A lot of locals visit this spot. I like this place. The food is solid and I can always come for my skillet and pancakes. Some of the customers can be a little sketchy but who am I to judge? I cannot comment on the dinner since we only come for breakfast. The menu is really big. Lots of dishes on there to chose from. I would suggest breakfast. It is really reasonable for a family of 4 to eat out. Lots of food and my kids have to always take home their food because they cannot fisinh it all in one setting. So basically it is a Mom and Pop, greasy spoon spot with resonalbly priced breakfast. No more, no less. read more

Nice little local place. Diner food and breakfast options, to many to mention. Had a chef salad and did not disappoint! 2 of us for lunch at $30 is a good deal today. Good food, good service. I'll be back if I'm in Indy again. read more

The food was very good The place was clean restroom could use some work only two cups of coffee the whole meal. Get more help!! They have too much to do read more

Came here for breakfast and it took 10 minutes for someone to help us get a table and another 5 to be seated. Wasn't a great start but was willing to give it a shot still. Ordered the sirloin steak and eggs with hash brown and was eager to try it out. What came out was a slab of Chuck beef disguised as a steak. The hash browns were half frozen in the middle, the "steak" was practically rare and I almost couldn't stomach it. I had high hopes for the pancakes because they looked good, and they were. Until I went for the syrup and practically maple colored water poured veraciously. I'm definitely not coming back. read more

What an unlikely place to find culinary perfection. The memory of the bumpy parking lot where I had to turn around that almost took the underbody off of my car is still fresh, but a cup of Chicken Florentine healed that and many other small emotional wounds... Creamy without a hint of a clot. Smooth, perfect amount of salt. Fresh spinach that looks like it was only allowed to just wilt. Noodles at the perfect degree of firmness. The Blintzes with apples, just like the soup, contained nothing that I could identify that was not just made from scratch, including simmered cinnamon apple slices and cottage cheese filling and, of course, the crepes. The hard part of any cooking, especially commercially, is not to overdo the salty, the sweet and the obvious flavors. Mother's Table, you succeeded and got a loyal customer today. Looking forward to trying six pages of omelets, pancakes, crepes, sandwiches and salads. read more

If you are hungry and want a wide variety of options this is the place for you!!! The prices are very reasonable. The atmosphere is old school diner....very casual with a friendly staff. If you can't decide on what you want ask your server for suggestions. The outside may not be impressive but you should never judge...the food is great!!!! read more

First time here. It was about 8am with a few other couples in the dining area. I ordered the Irish Skillet with Pancakes, the husband ordered the full order of biscuits and gravy with eggs, sausage links and french toast. They make their own syrup, which was the star of the meal. It was thinner than store-bought but amazing. My Irish skillet was topped with slices of cheese vs. shredded as I've had at other breakfast joints. Their breakfast potatoes were seasoned well and filling.Their menu is huge. I'd love to try their apple pancake or Dutch Baby next time. My advice: come hungry and order anything that will get you the syrup. read more

We are stuffed!! Food had nice presentation and tasted fantastic! Price was very reasonable for the amount of food which was served!! We would definitely come here again!! We are from Central Illinois and love to try out new restaurants! This is by far an awesome one!! If you haven't tried it yet, U MUST! My mom and I shared breakfast and lunch meals for dinner; my daughter ate two eclair waffles only $3.75, my mom and I shared an order of 2-eclair waffles $3.95, and also shared Cream Cheese Blentzers with Cherries $7.95 and shared Chicken Salad Croissant $7.95 , which came with a side salad with the BEST homemade Bacon Salad dressing, fresh fruit and cottage cheese; and my niece had a Vanilla Sunday for $3.50, which was piled high with several scoops of ice cream topped with tons of whipped cream, chocolate, and three cherries. You REALLY get a lot of BANG! for your buck!! read more

I have wanted to try this place for a little while since I remember browsing their menu and seeing the fresh apple pancake. I decided to order the Farmers omelette (with gravy on the side) with hash-browns & regular pancakes. I had them also put in a small apple pancake as a 'dessert' since it takes so long to make and I just wanted to try it. The omelette was okay and didn't seem to have a lot of flavor even with the gravy. The regular pancakes were pretty good, but had a lot of butter on them which I didn't like. The portions were huge so there was plenty for the price. The apple pancake was also okay, not as good as I was expecting it to be. It didn't have a lot of flavor which was a bit of a bummer since I love apples and cinnamon. It was huge though so between that and the omelette I felt like i have extra food for at least 2 days. Overall, the place was okay. I doubt I would ever come here again. The prices are low and the portions are huge, but the food just wasn't good enough for me. There was nothing that I could actually say that I want to eat again and nothing that I had I could say was bad. It was all very meh. I've been to more 'divey' places with a lot better food, so this one disappointed me a bit. read more

What a great spot! We hadn't visited since the ownership changed, but I'm glad we did now. The staff was friendly, the menu is expansive, and the wait time was short. The good itself was very good and reasonably priced. I had the French crepes with strawberries and Nutella. It was sweet (and very tasty). Everyone enjoyed their food, including the Mother's Omelette and Hawaiian Pancakes. I'll go back for more soon! read more

I was really looking forward to trying this mom & pop type place for a while. Upon driving in, it looks really run down outside. Walking in isn't much different. Everything is SO outdated and old, with several repairs needed. I waited for a bit, wasn't sure if I should seat myself or not (there's no sign). I was finally told to sit anywhere. The menu is so huge, it's overwhelming (this is never a good sign because it means nothing is their speciality and many items won't be fresh - a tip from Food Network I've heard many times). I ordered the chicken salad plate that I had seen good looking pictures of. It came with a soup and although the only option was French Onion, I didn't mind because I love that soup and the gooey cheese on top. It came out, sadly, with no cheese! The broth was good but it was overall boring. Later I found a few pieces of shredded cheese at the bottom. It turns out that they were out of chicken salad so they brought me tuna salad instead. It wasn't fresh made, it smelled a bit funky, and was heavy on the relish. I scrapped it off and ate the croissant, which was great. The fruit didn't taste fresh and several of my grapes were molded. The cottage cheese was sour, which was sad because I love cottage cheese. The tomatoes also tasted old - yuck. My waitress never asked how my food was, despite being one of only 3 tables occupied. One table was a group that had finished and during my 45 minutes there, no one touched the table to clean it up (not appetizing to stare at). I was still hungry from the poor meal so I got a slice of carrot cake to go, hoping it would be good (it was!). Overall, I wouldn't come back. This place needs a major makeover of decor, menu, and staff. There are coupons on discounts4indy.com if you come by and you can show them on your phone. read more

Oh my goodness of arterial blocking good food. The biscuits and gravy are phenomenal. The butter biscuits bring out the flavor. The service is old fashion and great. The diner is a classic feeling of how food should be cooked. Highly recommended if you need some good home cookin. read more

If you're looking for food with flavor this isn't it. The syrup for pancakes is so runny, not sticky all so it's clearly watered down. I have to say they are very conscious with distance seating and self serving condiments... but other that I wasn't impressed. I had a skillet and friends traditional breakfast plates. They didn't like the meats and left them on the plate read more

There is 0 reason to eat here with Thai Town Cuisine 100 yards away and Major Restaurant East African Authentic Food on the other side of the highway. We ate there for lunch on Valentines day. We were very disappointed and will not be returning. Chicken Dumpling Soup: Rich and delicious Mothers Delight: Dry overcooked roast beef. Penne side: Slightly sweet and the best thing on the table. Country Fried Roast Beef: Tough and chewy. Eggs: Cooked well. Hash Browns: Burnt to a crisp. Decent after we sent back the first order. French Toast: Flavorless. read more

First time visit. It's a local diner so don't expect anything fancy. Ordered breakfast skillet. Had a lot of potatoes but the rest of the ingredients, except the eggs, were lacking. Had to dig to find the onions & green peppers that it was supposed to have. Also the sauce was just a thin strip. Pricing was good but you get what you pay for sometimes. read more

Mother's Table - American Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

I've been here multiple times and have had good experiences. The portions are HUGE and you'll always leave more than full. I've only been here for breakfast but I'm confident there lunch and dinner is just as good. My go to is an egg and cheese omelette with potatoes. I have also ordered sausage and egg sandwiches and they were delicious. My favorite food are the potatoes. They are the square potatoes and are seasoned excellently. When my friends visit, Mothers Table is always a suggestion! read more

Today's is my luckiest day! Manage to find another mama and papa breakfast joint. Thanks to yelp I was able to find this spot. The food looked amazing and well presented, and of course the food tasted like mama's cooking too!. Had to drive all the way to the west side to find good food!. Can not wait to try other selection on the menus!. Keep it up!. Bin apetit! read more

If you've drive down W. Washington St you've passed it hundreds of times and never noticed. This place is a step above a hole in the wall but the food is AMAZING!! I go as often as I can either with my family or solo. Don't be fooled by the decor. The staff is nice and the prices are a STEAL!! They have breakfast lunch and dinner options read more

I have to give this place a one star to try and balance the average score a little better. Service was great. As far as the wait for the food it was definitely 1 star worthy. Once the food got there, the presentation looked decent. I took a bite and it completely changed my mind. I had the biscuit platter. The Hashbrowns legit had dirt in them. Or something that gave me that sandy crunch to them. Almost hurt my teeth. The Sausage tasted old. I'm not sure how long it had been in the freezer. However, the eggs and buscuits and gravy were sorta decent. I would have given them two stars but the average needs lowered. read more

Hawaiian pancakes are awesome! Can definitely tell it isn't a box mix. So many other options on the menu that I want to try. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Don't let the sparsely filled parking lot deter you from trying it. We will definitely be going back. read more

Menu overwhelming in a positive way. So many delicious choices that it's hard to choose. Breakfast specials with coffee included. I had the sloppy breakfast which is essentially hash browns, cheese, gravy, hash browns, gravy, and more cheese. Great with hot sauce and pepper. Coffee was above average which is perfect for a diner and better than I normally find at similar places. Will be back. read more

Great food! Service was a little slow but it was a Sunday. I had chicken fried steak and eggs and my significant had seafood frittata. Tons of food and yummy! If you're in Indy, go here instead of Waffle House! read more

Food was great, service was good, building could use some serious renovating!!! Normally I would never down an establishment for their choice in decor, but dang...everything in there was from early 90s maybe older...I understand it is expensive to give a place like that a face lift, but it would undoubtedly double their clientele. Like i said food was great and large portions, cost was on the lower side so thats also a plus. read more

Great meal tonight. Thank you, yelp! I love breakfast food for dinner, and this did not disappoint. Hubby and I each had one of their skillets; he had the Idaho skillet and I had the Gypsy skillet. Both of us opted for pancakes rather than toast. Everything was delicious! The pancakes were light and fluffy, and the skillets were fabulous. The menu is HUGE. Breakfast is available all day, but they have many other choices for lunch and dinner. We had great difficulty deciding what to order, but the young man who was our server was very patient with us. They offer many types of omelettes, French toast, pancakes, Belgian waffles, and much more. read more

Didn't take any pics as we were too busy eating. Pretty delicious. Friendly and attentive staff. I would highly recommend the Belgian waffle... best I've had. read more

Was looking for a good mom and pop restarting and found MothersTable. Old down diner with fresh food. Got the veil and it came on top of bread with mash potatoes smothered in brown gravy. This meal tasted like grandma's dinner. Also came with a salad and a drink. Will be looking for this place next time I come through Indianapolis. read more

Service was crazy slow. Food was okay. My guts are paying for it now. Watery salad, double decker BLT was mostly just lettuce and bread. Not sure why my guts are wrenching because I basically ate $12 worth of lettuce. Menu is big and tons of good looking choices. Maybe I just got food on an off day for them. read more

The staff is great!! They were very personable and took good care of us. The food was typical breakfast. The place just needs some updating and TLC. read more
