We came here for our first time today and it was so good. Slimy was our waitress and so attentive and sweet. Got the country breakfast and a piece of pie. Biscuits are so good and service was awesome. We will definitely be back.

My family and I went to the Oak Cliff restaurant and it was first time coming to Norma's Cafe. It was one of the best food we ever tried. Jesse was our waiter and was so attentive to us. We really recommend this place. The food was served fast and really good. The hostess was sweet as well .

Went with a few gal pals for brunch. Got the ol number 7 and a sweet . So yummy. Emily was awesome. Mega business. She was managing the cashier, greeting and seating people, and was our server. Great food great service. Thanks Emily !!
