First time here and can say I will be back. I got the chicken tender platter with fries, broccoli and Mac and cheese. The tenders were juicy, well seasoned and fresh. The fries were basic (what you would expect), the broccoli was soft if you like that. I prefer a slight crunch but it was good for unseasoned and soft broccoli. Lastly the Mac and cheese was delicous. They offer corn bread or rolls, get both! The corn bread is sweet and moist the rolls were soft and had a buttery flavor! The noodles were well cooked, the cheese was creamy and overall it was the best side ever. The area is tight and loud but Ill be back to try other food. Overall it was delicous!

It was busy at 1 pm so the service suffered a but since i had to wait a little longer to order. Food was pretty good and did come out fast, despite it not being so photogenic. I can definitely see the hype, would love to bring family whenever they’re in town

Norma’s 67th Birthday special was so good. Chicken fried steak dinner, mashed potatoes with green beans and a roll for $1.85. The best part was the brown gravy.

Wow, this place is out of this world, it’s been here since 1956 and serves some of the best diner food I’ve ever had! – and besides the great food and awesome ‘50s diner vibes, our waitress ‘Gizmo’ was the best, she really made the whole experience something to remember (so try and sit in her section when ya go) – three cheers for good ol’ Norma’s Cafe, may it still be here in 2056!

Food, off the chain, they’re known for their desserts but I’m always too full to try. Can’t remember what I got the first round but had breakfast burger last time, awesome. My cuz had biscuits and gravy and pancakes. Said they were good.

Good spot for breakfast and lunch. Sometimes the wait is a little long but usually it’s if ur a party of 4 or more. Recently tried chicken and dressing and fell in love! The ham is the best protein choice as well as the CFC. Friendly servers too. Tried the sirloin and it’s not bad either. Varies

We stumbled over to Norma’s Cafe after our original place was closed due to a power outage. Norma’s was busy (perhaps due to other restaurants in the area being closed), but the service was still excellent. All of our food was delicious – the candied yams were a particular delight. Kesha provided great customer service throughout our meal and we left very happy.

I had the country breakfast with chicken fried steak and asked for onion and bell pepper in my hash browns. Well the chicken fried steaks crust was thicker than the piece of meat and it was from the frozen section cause the thick coating just totally separated from the meat. The hash browns were sooo dry and it looked like they cooked the onions and bell peppers separately and just placed on top of the hash browns. The best thing they had was the coffee. We were the first ones in that morning and boy the lady answering the phone with the white hair was already grumpy. My waitress was fine thankfully. I would think that a place like this made everything from scratch..i guess not.
