The food was great but the service was way too slow. We waited 40 minutes before getting our salads. We made a dinner reservation.

The wait for our food, one hour, was ridiculous. They said the kitchen was behind 20 minutes. The food was a bit overdone. This is the first time I’ve experienced a problem there.

I absolutely love Cafe Normandie, it never disappoints. Today I took a friend for a birthday lunch, and it was lovely. For this visit, I rated it a 4 rather than a 5 because the escargot, while delicious, were short—out of a dozen, four had inaccessible fillings.
