Great spot to have a quick breakfast/lunch/brunch The Help is wonderful. Food is great. And they have a WONDERFUL bar that's second to none. Unfortunately, I always end up there with family after attending a wake at the Marine Park Funeral Home across the street. Little priced! But a B+ regardless! GREAT NEIGHBORHOOD SPOT! read more

I came to Nora's for dinner with a big group of people during the break time of a wake. It is across the street from Marine Park Funeral Home. The restaurant's location is very convenient for families looking for a restaurant during the break time of a wake. They seated us in the back room, which had a lot of room for our large table. They had a prefix menu that included a soup or salad with an entree. I ordered the soup, which was a cream of chicken with sun-dried tomato. It was delicious. I really enjoyed it. For my entree, I ordered the cheese burger, medium rare. It was cooked perfectly and very tasty. They gave us fries and onion rings with the burger, which was very nice. The fries and onions were awesome. Overall, I liked the food and I would definitely return to Nora's next time I am in the Marine Park area. read more

great food but slow as s**t service! I've been here twice, I can't say anything bad about the food. Everything I've had there was delicious (including the french onion soup, penne with vodka and buffalo shrimp app). But the service is sooooo bad and slow (both times) it made me crazy! Completely understaffed and from what I understand this place is always busy so they should be prepared. 2 waitresses in the whole place and one bus girl. we waited so long to be seated with quite a few empty tables open, then I ordered something to go as soon as we sat down and ever when we were done eating and waiting for the check it still wasn't ready.I barely saw the waitress and when i did i couldn't get her attention. I can go on and on about the sh*ttyness of the service. read more

I must say: these fellas have much improved the place. I was recently in again with my grandson and we had some very tasty crepes and coffee. This will be my Sunday routine in the fall! read more

Though the food is poor, Nora's is a great place to observe what Brooklyn was like many years ago. Unless you grew up in around here, odds are you have no idea what this flavor of Brooklyn culture is like. Check it out, as it's definitely on its way out. read more

I've been coming to Nora's for many years. I was very disappointed when I went this past weekend. It was the first time I've been to Nora's in quite a while & I was so disappointed. Nora's has always been the place to go for great food & service. Not this time & I feel bad writing this, but it is not the same as it use to be. The food was ok, the service was ok, but that's it...just "ok". Maybe I am getting old, but it was also very loud. We couldn't hear each other talk. There was a group of women there that were so wasted they couldn't stand. One kept falling & saying that she was alright. LOL - big hangover the next day. Sorry folks, I think I have spent my last time in Nora's. I am sorry too, because it was always a great place. read more

Let me start by saying I'm pretty shocked and confused by the not-so-good reviews for this place. I've been coming here for years for lunch and dinner and have never had a sub-par experience. The menu and atmosphere are equally comforting. The wait and kitchen staff are extremely attentive and friendly and the food is consistently delicious. I have never been treated with anything but the utmost respect by their staff nor has anyone I've ever known that has visited (dozens and dozens of people). Lastly, I have to mention, as I've just seen in one lengthy review in particular, it's unfair (and completely bizarre) to post a poor review for a long-standing and revered neighborhood establishment just because you're having a bad day. I will continue to visit Nora's again and again for years to come. read more

Not only do I love their food, I love the convenience of the location! It's just a few blocks from my house. Parking isn't too hard to find but since it's smack in the middle of a huge neighborhood, it's great that you can just walk right over. They offer burgers, salads, soups, pasta dishes.. etc. The menu isn't huge but there's a lot of variety and always great specials. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I've never had a bad run in with the staff. There is a large bar when you first walk in so it can get a little noisy. They have seating fairly close the bar and then a back room. If it's crowded at the bar, it will still be fairly noise in the back room. The back room is also used for large parties so sometimes you may just be stuck in the middle. Overall, I love Nora's and I really don't have anything bad to say about them read more

Place has good food, good prices, and friendly staff. What else could you ask for from neighborhood place.

Noras is one of my favorite restaurants in Brooklyn. There really is nothing special there, but anything you order from the menu or the specials list is perfect everytime. They have a range of American, Irish and Itallian food. Good selection of Sea food. They have a decent slection of tap beer and bottled beer with a full bar. It is a loud place, so feel free to bring the little screamers, no one will hear them. The service is always pleasant, usually very attentive. The only down side is that it is so popular locally that weeknds 6 to 8 pm getting a table can be a bit of a wait (20 to 30 minutes). But they do have a bar you can wait at, and they do take reservations. read more

Good bar type food and atmosphere. Mike the bartender was social and had a good discussion about sports. Will definitely come back.

I came here Saturday afternoon with my mom and kids. The waitress who seemed to be alone was very prompt at coming to the table to take our drink order. She was very professional and welcoming. Once our drinks arrived, she came back in a timely fashion to take our orders. We didn't wait that long for our food to come out even though it seemed all of the cooks were out having their lunch at the table across from us. The food was pretty good. I had the pasta with mozerella cheese and broccoli. The air conditioner was pretty high which made my kids and I totally frozen! Also when we walked in the music was not on, then all of a sudden it came on blasting so loud of what I think was 50's music that I could barely hear my daughter. Anyhow, the most important things for repeat customers and new customers as myself are friendly staff and good food. I received both that day. read more

I must agree with the other yelpers when I say I just love this place. The service and the food is always good and the prices are reasonable. While it is usually busy there has never been a wait. A must visit in the neighborhood. read more

Just ate here last night for the hundredth time. Love it here. Wonderful atmosphere. Food is excellent. Drinks are strong, not watered down. If I had only one small little complaint, the food takes too long. Even if I order a salad, it takes a while. Sometimes I want to go here but I am starving, it will stop me from going!!. But we do love this place! read more

This was my first time trying the food here (though the bar at Nora's is no stranger to me). I had the shrimp and avocado wrap. A bit skimpy, but great flavor. Service was great. Waitress was very helpful and fast. read more

Outstanding food the Chicken Parmigiana was amazing went there for my friends dads birthday and everything was wonderful staff was wonderful I hope they open another location in Manhattan but I will def travel to eat there again read more

A number of years ago, we had a family party at this place in their back room, which was great. Some 10 years later, I returned on a Sunday afternoon and was terribly disappointed... So you sort of expect this sort of place would have a breakfast menu, and they really don't. They have two Sunday brunch items listed. And they are both the same price, but one allows you a choice of two sides (I think bacon and sausage for example) and the other nothing on the side, but yet they both have the same # of eggs in the dish. After we were seated, in a pretty empty place for Sunday very late morning, it took a while for the waitress to 'get to us'. She wasn't very helpful. My partner ordered the Sunday brunch and the waitress never asked her about the beverage she wanted w/that order, which was Mimossa as one of the choices. Now the food comes and my partner say I'll the have Mimossa and the waitress says, 'didn't i ask you before' ... I thought OH YEAH. We were never offered a second cup of coffee. In fact the waitress came back only after were were sitting there practically finished to ask if there was anything else we needed. There wasn't. The food was truly nothing special. At first I was excited to see hand cut/fresh french fries, but they were raw inside. I won't be back. read more

We had been told many times to go to Nora's and it did not disappoint. The portions were big and delicious. Very relaxed environment.

I've been here a million times for many years. At first it was love at first taste. Over the years the portions being served got smaller, salads a little bit browner, service a little bit slower and the bar a little bit louder. But one thing so far has stayed the same, they have the best tasting bacon cheeseburgers and fries I've had in Brooklyn. I am very picky when it comes to my burgers but they seem to do it right and I trust their beef way more than other places. read more

Highly recommend the Sunday night double cut port chop! Absolutely brilliant! We love coming to Nora's!

Great neighborhood place that has some good burgers and a relaxed feel. Stop in for a relaxing drink, a chat with some of the locals, and maybe a game on the tube. read more

I never write posts being in the business and know what can happen. That being said went after a wake for a family friend today. Service was outstanding !! Food very good as well! Our waitress was on point!!! No one needed or wanted for anything . Thank You for a great experience! read more

This is a nice little place to go for lunch or dinner. My mom had my baby shower here and it was awesome. Had a wonderful time. This is a "feel at home" kind of place and very inviting. Love the cheeseburgers and fries. read more

Made a reservation for two for a Saturday night 8pm and it's a good thing I did because when we arrived, every table was filled. We ordered the French onion soup which we both enjoyed, it was light and delicious. The table next to ours was devouring their fried calamari, so we could not resist ordering and we enjoyed, along with the dipping sauce and the bread. Tom's entrée was the seafood combo with shrimp, scallops and cod, delectable. I ordered a chicken wrap and it was very tasty. the fries are also tasty and we both finished the plate, which is unusual. Drinks were good. The staff was friendly and attentive. Good ambiance. Musical entertainment. Will definitely go back. read more

I ve been going here for many years One of my favorite places to go food is always really good, friendly service, nice atmosphere. If you haven't been here yet would recommend go here to dine out. read more

The food is ok. Service is good. Rating should be between 3 and 4 star. Good for hanging out for a cup of coffee, not recommended for dinner. read more

Last visit not so good, service slow as usual, Salad came out with meal (I should have sent it back, salad belongs on table before dinner, no?) And food was not very good, Had Buffalo Shrimp and it was in a slightly spicy BBQ SAUCE more sweet than anything and my Wife had Quesadillas that were tasteless, I wasn't happy this time at all read more

I am a huge fan of Nora's, the service and food are always exceptional. I can honestly say that I have never had a bad meal there. Friday and Saturday nights get crowded so if you want a quiet dinner get there early and be aware of the intermission time of Marine Park Funeral Home because the families usually walk across the street to relax at Nora's. read more

My friend and I popped in here for a quick bite and a beer yesterday. We sat at the bar and had a great experience. The staff is so friendly and even though the food isn't super fancy it is good. We had the potpie and it was a very generous portion. I don't get to this area of Brooklyn often, but I would definitely come back. read more

I was SHOCKED that they had the nerve to raise their drinks prices once AGAIN!!!. $4.50 for a bud light!!!!! Do they realize there is a bar/restaurant a few blocks away, and a dive bar in between where beers are $2.00. This is not Manhattan, but these are becoming Manhattan prices. I for one will be spending less time & money there. read more

Been here a few times and every time it was a pleasant experience. A good neighborhood place with good food. Don't go here to eat if you are in a rush because the food does take a little while to get to you. If you have the time, sit back and order a burger and a beer. read more

Was brought here by a coworker who knew the area. I had never been before. The place is a very "neighborhood" type restaurant, but had excellent food. The roast pork on garlic bread w the fresh cut fries is a must. read more

nice local place that has a chinese wait and cook staff even though its basically American food. Service is good food tasty. Nice sized bar in the front, funeral home acroos the street keeps this place busy. read more

Stop into Nora's every once in a while for dinner and always wonder why I don't go back more often. Comfortable, friendly service the food is usually delicious. Recommended on a week night when it is not too crowded. read more

Horrible place, smells like a dirty bar, waitress walked over to a table 10 miles ahead of us, dropped the menus and left before we got to the table. Sat us at some cramped table where you had to wiggle your way into your seat. But the best part of this experience is sitting for over 10 minutes while waitresses came up to every table but ours. It wasn't till I was fed up already and got up to leave that someone walked up and said, " drinks " ? No thanx, off to roll n roasters. read more

I've been eating here a while with my family,I can say The burgers are great here chicken burger also.The cornbeef and cabbage very good also.As for the rest of the menu all i can say is that its ok.No more No less.Also it is a little pricey . read more

If your looking for a place "Where everyone knows your name, and your always glad you came" then this is it. Comfortable for friends and families. Staff is very pleasurable and the bar crowd is very friendly and the beer on tap is very cold!!! read more

Always a decent meal at Nora's. Good for the neighborhood. Best french onion soup and love the fries.

Be prepared to bring a fly swatter (they are in for face and on your food). Had to cover my food with the napkin and waitress didn't blink an eye. Disgusting and food was not as it was years ago. read more
