    A BELOVED TRADITION! Every time I'm passing by the Claremont Norms it's an automatic pitstop. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The 24/7 favorite always has good vibes, day or night.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I stopped by for some red chilaquiles with steak and black beans. I also ordered a short stack of buttermilk pancakes. I didn't eat breakfast so I was HUNGRY. Service was exceptionally quick and our waitress Estefania was very helpful. Our drinks were refilled consistently, my hazelnut cold brew was the perfect drink for a late brunch. The menu is always evolving! Yes, they have the diner classics and consistent items. However, Norms is never scared to try new limited time options. Currently, they have Korean options, including Korean-fusion breakfast items. If you're Mexican or Korean, you will not go hungry here. Love the diverse menu, they even have boba at all Norms locations! No bad notes, even our host was super friendly! I'd highly recommend stopping by, the portions are bigger than what you'd get at Denny's.

    Endenail (not sure if I'm spelling his name correctly) was very sweet as well. He was actually the bus boy but he observed that no one had made it to our table yet to get the basics. So he brought my hubby his drink. Fatima was fantastic. She came to us promptly after finishing the order of another table. I wasn't in the mood for anything but she was looking after me and asked if we needed an extra plate to share the meal my husband was getting. So sweet. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very clean and well organized location with plenty of parking.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My hubby went with the buffalo chicken salad. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance was perfect. Very spacious seating. Many spots but we didnt feel as if we're sitting so close to other customers.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I love that the booths in the center of the dining room had colored themed glass running in between so that it gives you a little privacy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Also the fact that there was more than one area with a register.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Beautiful location.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Really great selection for breakfast. So many choices its difficult to choose. I went with the Big Breakfast and it was just like at home when i was a kid! Fluffy pancakes, tasty sausage and bacon with fresh fruit. Service was amazingly fast and my friendly server brought me warm milk with my coffee to make a Cafe con Leche! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very clean seating and this is a popular location based on people inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Great value for delicious food and top notch service, every time. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We come here once a month to catch up as a family and we always have a blast.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Paul, Keren and Carlos are stellar whenever they wait on us. They spoil us and make us feel at home each time.

    The breakfast was tasty but not at the level of previous years. Coffee is terrible!! Like colored water! Waitress was nice but kept offering the coffee and made no effort to improve it. Overall service was subpar and I will not waste the time, effort, or fuel to return in the future. So sad ! My namesake restaurant has gone south. Was one of my favorite restaurants and the coffee was excellent! Not recommended. Now I'm off to anywhere to get a morning coffee

    Went to this cute little place today in Claremont because we were specifically looking for a…read morewoodfired pizza. They've got indoor and outdoor seating and they seemed a touch understaffed for being a beautiful day. It was also a Tuesday lunchtime so maybe they weren't expecting it to be as busy as it was. We were able to prove the menu before we got seated. And our super friendly server came out and we were able to order right away. They've got a lunch special. That is a small personal pizza with a salad and we each got that. Salads came out first and I had the arugula salad, which was absolutely phenomenal. 10 of 10 would eat this every single day. The arugula was peppery and it was well dressed in a lemon vinaigrette type sauce. I am a fan of just plain lemon on mine, but this was delicious. My husband got a union salad, which is their specialty I guess. It's got colored carrots and some beets and some shallots. I thought the dressing was bland and it certainly needed salt and pepper. We asked for both and didn't get either. Our pieces came out and they were nice and woodfired. I feel like they could've been done just a little bit longer maybe a minute or two. The sauce was a lovely fresh type crushed tomato sauce. The cheese was nice and gooey and did not feel or taste like a package of processed cheese. Pepperonis were greasy, but in a real meat kind of way. I had to dab mine, but my husband just went to town on his. The pickled peppers is a pickled jalapeño. Big chunks of them. They certainly didn't skimp on any of the toppings. They were a little sweet and a little hot. Some of the big chunks were a little too sweet for my liking but overall, it was a nice flavor mix Also from a size standpoint, I thought the salad and pizza were very adequate for lunch at around $20 price point I asked for salt and pepper again as well as a side of ranch. This time we did get the salt and pepper as well as cheese and crushed red pepper. But we didn't get the ranch until we were leaving. The server did apologize and said he thought someone else was bringing it out but I pretty much deducted a star because we asked for a couple different things that never came. Overall, the service was super friendly, the ambience was nice for an outdoor lunch thought. I thought the menu looked delicious and there were several things I would like to come back and try and I would go back again.

    We decided to try brunch on a Saturday morning. Long story short,…read more I ordered the steak and eggs breakfast. At $38ish, I expected a great meal. It was so underwhelming. 2 eggs cooked differently, one over hard, one over easy, 5-6 potato pieces and the steak was thin, overcooked, and appeared to be a cheap cut of meat. A New York cut would have been great. Wife mentioned norms has better steak and eggs. Called and spoke with a manager Stephanie, not looking for anything, but to express disappointment in the meal for the high price. She offered to mail a gift card for us and invited us back. Took all of my information and never received it. Thanks anyway. Don't think we'll be back.

The only issues with the food was the hash browns, which were completely unseasoned and not fully cooked. Also, the lobster omelette is tasty but you won't find much lobster in it. Prices are typical prices, but their portions are very generous compared to the price. I also like how large the dining area is and that there is decent space between tables. Not cramped like a lot of breakfast spots, which made it a more pleasant experience. Food: 4/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 5/5

We were fine with it, and were given two menus and told to sit anywhere we wanted. After 15 minutes, no servers had come out to take drink orders or anything, so my boyfriend went inside to ask if someone could come take our order. I looked around the patio area and realized there were two other tables whose patrons were there before us, waiting for drinks and service, just like we were. One of them was fanning herself with the menu, as it was close to 100° outside. (There are no misters on the patio, just a slight breeze now and then. And, if you sit near the patio entrance, you should know that the huge dryer vents from the adjacent hotel are pushing hot air into the patio.) My boyfriend came back and said that he was told "someone will be out soon", and he noticed that all the servers were watching the soccer game inside. We waited another minute or so, and decided to leave and find another place for lunch. We were so glad we left...we ended up at Gus's BBQ across the way, and OMG...save yourself the trouble of the weak menu & non-existent service at The Back Abbey and walk over to Gus's.
