I had an amazing experience. From the moment I walked in, the vibe was perfect—great atmosphere, and the playlist was on point with hits from the 90s and 2000s that brought back so many memories. The highlight of the meal was definitely the broccoli appetizer. It was incredible—crispy, flavorful, and unlike any broccoli dish I've had before. The staff was friendly and attentive, making the whole evening even better. I can't wait to go back!

I recently dined at Norma's, and I have to say, it was an incredible experience! From the moment we walked in, the warm and welcoming atmosphere set the tone for a fantastic evening. The standout of our night, however, was our server, Sean. He went above and beyond to ensure that everything was perfect, providing excellent recommendations and making sure we had everything we needed. His attentiveness and friendly personality truly elevated our dining experience. As for the food, it was phenomenal! The flatbread was delicious, with just the right amount of crisp and flavor, and the steak was cooked to perfection—tender, juicy, and full of flavor. But my absolute favorite was the Smashburger. It was juicy, perfectly seasoned, and paired with all the right toppings, making it one of the best burgers I've had in a long time. Overall, Norma's delivered on all fronts, from the exceptional service by Sean to the outstanding food. I can't wait to come back!

Live music on Wednesday night was fantastic and created a great vibe. The restaurant itself is gorgeous and the food was all incredible. Warm service and felt both chic and cozy. Can't wait to go back!

The singer was amazing. The place was amazing. I would go back just for that. I would say the food was meant here if you like seafood then this is the place for you however, for me it wasn't anything amazing about it. The menu was lacking. I had a burger, sough dough bread and potatoes. Outside of the burger everything was lacking seasoning or salt. I was gonna go for the steak but it was overpriced and I've been to some higher upscale places but $70 for steak strips and fries was ridiculous. Plus the good took too long to come out.

Horrible experience. They are new and they were moving tables and plans and changing lights through the entire dinner. Horrible experience. Food was cold and server didn't bring check. Someone else dropped it on the table

Terrible experience. Security/Management/owner specifically a white man wearing a navy suit and white hair was disgustingly dismissive and rude. The service was slow. The food was mediocre. The bathrooms were trashed with toilet paper all over the floor and non flushing toilets. This place is not upscale, it was very low brow including the crowd. My experience was shockingly bad.

The food was amazing!! Every flavor and detail was impeccable. The biscuits were to die for. The sea bass was heavenly and the burger was the juiciest and probably one of the best I've had in my life.

Overall a great night. The seating hostess was polite and came to get us at the bar when our table was ready. Our waiter was great, attentive without being overbearing. The food was outstanding, we ordered the corn bread, fried chicken, broccoli and sweet potato's. Which was more than enough for two people and tasted great! Finished the night off with dessert. The ambiance is great, the food does come out a little slowly, but I didn't mind. It's a beautiful restaurant and I'd definitely return.

Wow, the vibe was incredible! The DJ was everything with R&B playlist, and the food was absolutely amazing. I can't even begin to describe how delicious the sourdough ricotta honey bread was! And those parmesan potatoes and red snapper were on another level. Perfect drinks, perfect food, and perfect music what more could you ask for?

I recently celebrated my birthday on Sunday, September 1st, at Norma. While I'm grateful for the opportunity to have my party there, I have to share some concerns. The event was marred by several issues, starting with the extreme heat; the air conditioning was inadequate, making the atmosphere uncomfortable for my guests. Additionally, the venue was clearly understaffed, which impacted the service. The food was not served in the proper sequence, which was disappointing. On a positive note, the DJ was fantastic, and Christina, along with the other manager, did their best to address the situation. Unfortunately, these efforts weren't enough to fully rectify the problems. The lack of proper service, including infrequent cleanup after each course, left a bad taste and put a damper on the celebration. I hope the venue can address these issues for future events.

The Hostess at the front was super rude and unhelpful, to include a bad attitude. Not only was her attitude bad, she looked a hot mess as well. She had on a bucket hat and a cheap looking Fashionova bodysuit with spaghetti straps. Her attitude and outfit definitely matched. Keeping first impressions in mind, she is not it, and you don't want and shouldn't want her being the first person customers come in contact with. Her interaction with every person that came through the door was horrible, and down right nasty. The Dj was over the top, a whole mood and top notch vibe. The food isn't so great, and the selection is limited, but I would definitely go again because of the the ambience and Dj, but if I have to have another encounter with that Hostess, I'm on the fence, because next time she will not get a pass. I came with over 15 people, and she was rude to all of us, to include the other customers. She was short in her response, rolling her eyes, and using aggressive hand gestures for no reason when ask a question. She walked back in forth the whole time with a frown on her face. Her negative energy transcended through the whole place.

My new favourite place. Chic Hollywood vibes, awesome cocktails and generous, delicious food. Still dreaming of the fried rice! Wait staff were warm and attentive. The perfect night out with friends or a date nite, Will definitely be back!

Came here for my birthday celebration with friends. We love hip hop music and brunch. Our server, Farrah was attentive and courteous. She kept our bottomless mimosas flowing and made good food recommendations.

Norma is such a wonderful little spot in town and the service is amazing. In particular, Christina has shown us the best hospitality each time we've been there. She really has made a lasting impression and really appreciate her warmth. Give her a promotion! And try the crab fried rice — delicioso! Thanks Norma team for a great experience. We'll be back.

Food is amazing. Some of the portions were a bit on the smaller side (Chicken/waffle sandwich in the brunch menu). However, it was all very flavorful. The vibe is amazing and the service is wonderful.
