One of those ultra-important holidays is just around the corner: Mother’s Day, when we pay respect to the very person who conveyed us into the world. That’s no small matter!

If you’re lodging with us at the Sofia this May, we’d like to recommend a trio of options for treating Mom to a brunch to remember on her special day.

Mother’s Day Brunch Cruise

Why not spend Mother’s Day on the water? Consider Flagship’s Mother’s Day Brunch Cruise, a two-hour getaway with views as delectable as the high-class buffet. Mom will love the prospect of San Diego’s skyline from the postcard-perfect bay—and she’ll love the complimentary champagne and mimosas just as much.

You can choose from either a morning or afternoon cruise, both serenaded by classy music. The buffet options are diverse and mouthwatering, from mussels and prawns to full-stop taco and breakfast bars.

BiCE Ristorante

One of San Diego’s top eateries, BiCE Ristorante is offering special brunch fare on Mother’s Day on top of a standout regular menu strongly informed by nourishing Italian cuisine. From noon to 8:30 p.m., you and your beloved materfamilias can enjoy an elegant smorgasbord: a four-course meal commencing with an antipasto of artisan meats and concluding with a memorable desert buffet by pastry chef Francesca Penoncelli. In between are radicchio, arugula, and endive salads, crab and asparagus soaps, swordfish cutlets, and other transcendent dishes—not to mention the one-of-a-kind “Mamma Delight” cocktail.

Currant Brasserie at the Sofia Hotel

Our third recommendation? Why, our very own Currant Brasserie, which is certainly convenient for Sofia guests but also deserves notice for its impeccable atmosphere and fantastically creative menu. From 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., the restaurant’s Mother’s Day Brunch will feature a full a la carte menu—including seasonal fruit crepes with lavender whipped cream and a spring-vegetable quiche. Bottomless mimosas are sure to delight. Make your reservation today to secure a coveted spot!

There’s no place like sunny San Diego to honor Mom on her very own holiday. From the waters of San Diego Bay to the Sofia’s monumental dining room, it’s easy to arrange an absolutely exquisite day!
