Mother's Day should be every day, but this time of year it's especially nice to treat Mom to a wonderful brunch.

From lavish buffets to affordable à la carte menus, Gayot has selected the country's top restaurants for Mother’s Day brunch so you can have a memorable meal to celebrate the woman who gave you life.

1) Arnaud's - New Orleans, LA
Traditional, old-world fine dining is the specialty at Arnaud's in New Orleans. Mother's Day is the perfect excuse to enjoy the Sunday jazz brunch, complete with classics like the signature Shrimp Arnaud -- giant prawns served cold with a spicy rémoulade sauce.

2) DB Brasserie - Las Vegas, NV

A memorable Mother's Day brunch doesn't have to mean a pricey buffet. DB Brasserie, chef Daniel Boulud's French brasserie at The Venetian in Las Vegas, is offering a lobster Benedict ($20) served with a complimentary glass of sparkling wine. The lobster Benedict can also be ordered as part of a $42 three-course prix-fixe menu with crab salad and strawberries & cream.
