I really appreciate what a wonderful atmosphere Norma’s has, just the right amount of eclectic and comfort and the service is excellent. If you want some delightfully decadent French Mediterranean food, Normas is my go to.

The starter were not great but the rest not too bad. The boeuf bourguignon was good but the veggies a bit under cooked

A perfect night. The waiter was so lovely and attentive. We had the feed me menu and it was so good. Will definitely be back! I have already been recommending it to friends.

Absolutely blown away by this hidden gem! From the moment we walked in, the service was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming — a rare find these days. The food? Simply outstanding. Every dish was packed with flavour, beautifully presented, and clearly made with care and quality ingredients. You can tell the kitchen takes pride in what they serve. It’s not often you find a place where both the food and service are equally exceptional, but this restaurant nails it. I’ll absolutely be returning and will be recommending it to everyone I know. A true hidden gem that deserves to be discovered.

Not many gluten free alrernative options so I paid for a full price feed me menu and only ate half of the items. Most places offer an alternative at least which I found odd. We got to choose 5 extra dishes for the table so we thought we would split them up evenly.. however those dishes didn’t really feed the amount of people at the table. We had 2 duck legs to feed 10 people? So value for money wasn’t the best. The place is nice but don’t think I’ll return with a group again

Stepping in to Norma is like stepping through a little portal to the Côte d'Azur. The decor is cozy and eclectic and the food is next level delicious. Chef Benjamin describes the food as simple, and it is in terms of using good quality ingredients and not over working them, and yet to make simple food delicious requires knowledge and technique and that is her in abundance. I am already planning a return trip.
