Grabbed some lunch at Norma’s Cafe. Inside the decor has a retro feel with a diner like vibe. I was seated right away. Had a mushroom Swiss burger with a side of tator tots. The burger was good, could have used more mushrooms and some A1 would have been nice. It arrived hot to the table. So hot I had to let it cool off to eat it. The tator tots were average at best. Seemed like they were frozen ones from the grocery store. Although I didn’t have dessert the pies looked amazing which makes sense why their motto is “life is short, eat dessert first”. The restaurant also serves breakfast.

This is my new go-to place for an amazing breakfast. The country fried chicken, served with two perfectly cooked sunny-side-up eggs and crispy bacon, was delicious. Don’t miss the biscuit and gravy! The kids loved the hamburger and corn dogs with the tasty fries, and the portions are huge—easily enough to share. Great service and a friendly atmosphere make this a fantastic choice for the whole family.

We were greeted promptly and was sat quickly. The service was fine. Now the food, our food was lacking serious flavor and everything was over cooked. The fried chicken BLT was so over cooked that the chicken inside was dried out to a point where only the breading was left and it was rock hard. The onion rings were so saturated in oil that rings were mushy and slimy. Everyone at our table did not enjoy their food and had a similar experience. I was left with the feeling that I drank oil. I will not be back.

Great diner hidden in the shopping center. Very fun atmosphere, with an old time feel. Our waitress Khrista was so nice and took care of us. Our f food came out nice and hot. And the meatloaf was amazing. And if you are a veteran they give you a nice discount.

The Chicken Fried Steak was quite tasty, my only knock on it was it was very thin and ratio of bread/meat was way off. The hash browns were tasty and very crispy. The pancakes were good and a pretty big portion. Staff were friendly and service was fast. Overall if you’re looking for a quick breakfast Norma’s Cafe is a good place to start as their food is well rounded good.

Good simple American burger with frys. Very good diner experience. Always busy but that means it is good.

I’m not sure they season or flavor the food at all. The mozzarella sticks were clearly frozen at some point, and the “marinara sauce” tasted like plain crushed tomatoes with no salt or seasoning. The patty melt completely fell apart and was soggy.
Service was okay — the waitress was nice and prompt. But as far as the food goes, I’ve honestly had better meals at Braum’s.
Someone send in Gordon Ramsay in before its to late.

Went to Norma’s for some real Southern food and found just that. The server was so great and lively. She really took care of us six. The location was easy to find. Parking availability was good. And wait time was decent. The prices were reasonable. Food and drinks were just as expected.

Hello guys, I was just there at Norma’s in Frisco to order (2) Veggie Plates due to my wife having bouts with her blood pressure. Well, we found the Chicken Enchillada Soup and Turnip Greens to be highly salted within the broth. Maybe it was just a one-off..but please monitor the level of salt being used as to the future. We certainly would appreciate your attention to this matter

This diner was amazing. The food was fabulous. The biscuits were the best I have had in a long time. If you enjoy a good old fashion breakfast this is the place for you. The decor was fun and funky. Next time I am in town I will definitely go back.
