    1/2 LB. NEW YORK STEAK  Glued together, zoom in
    Corey B.

    The Chicken noodle soup & Caesar salad were decent, service was great. But the New York strip steak I received was lab meat, it wasn't fresh. Tasted like glue, pieced together. Unfortunately I ate almost half of it before noticing it. Fake meat.

    Norms is always so nostalgic to me, as I used to come here when I was a kid too. And to this day, it still has its old school diner vibes. Came here today for breakfast and their food is as I remembered it to be - hot, yummy, and homey vibes. I had their special of the day which was an omelette, pancakes, and hashbrowns, which as a perfect portion to split if you're not too hungry 9/10. Our server, Jackie, was top notch. She served us with a smile, which added to the homelike vibes I like about this place. She was proactive, and made sure our coffee cups were always refilled so 10/10 on service.

    I've been to the plaza that this restaurant is situated in multiple times but never actually went in. After receiving some advertisement for it in the mail, I figured this was God's way of placing His hand on my shoulder, nodding, and saying "now's the time." So of course I went on a Sunday! The place was sparse and felt like I just walked in as it opened (it was in the afternoon), but that also meant we got seated right away. It's decorated like every other major diner-like franchise you've ever known, so it needs no more description. Our servers were pleasant and was more than accommodating to my requests to remove bacon from my Bigger Better Breakfast Burrito combo. I also shared the Strawberry Hotcake. Order came out very quickly. The burrito itself was decent, though not necessarily memorable. It came with a small side of chips and salsa. Not sure if I'd order it again as their breakfast menu is extensive enough for me to get something else entirely different. Hotcake was good, though! Very sweet and soft. I packed some of it for leftovers and it was still solid. The advertisement came with a 20% keep and reuse coupon until it expired, but I realized too late the person at the register didn't give it back. I guess that's God's way of telling me that I've had enough discounts for the meantime. Oh well.

    Maple bacon pancakes!

    Alma is the new manager, and wow, there's been significant positive changes to this Norms location! Our waitress Jacqueline, is very attentive toward each table. There were a few hiccups, but overall a pleasant meal. Would like to note that there were stains or dried food on my silverware. (See Pic) In addition, when the other customers, in the booth next to us got up, we noticed an unpleasant odor. Yay, the food finally arrives and it looks delicious ! Friend says the food is tasting wicked good. (See Vid.) Best Part: Only 14 dollars and 99 cents baby back ribs, half rack of tender meat. The meal went beyond my expectations, quite good surprisingly ! (and it passed my how does it taste the next day reheated test too) Would also like to mention that they make very good sauces themselves too. - As well as the dressings for the salad. In conclusion, definitely gonna come back, Norms is especially great when you're on a budget! Considering going back and getting these meals to go !

Overall, everything lacked flavor, although I will say the red salsa served with the chips was delicious. My friend ordered the avocado toast, but it was basically just a slice of bread with sliced avocado--no seasoning, condiments, or anything to make it stand out. The small garden salad was equally underwhelming, consisting of only romaine lettuce and cherry tomatoes with no dressing or even a drizzle of olive oil. I ordered the Eggs Benedict, but they were more like open-faced boiled eggs since the yolks were completely hard instead of runny. The café de olla had a nice flavor, but it was much sweeter than expected. I think it would be better if they served it unsweetened (or lightly sweetened) and let customers adjust the sugar to their own taste. I really wanted to enjoy this place because the ambiance is so charming, but the food just didn't live up to the experience.

We arrived and immediately the staff was so attentive, coming to assist with the lift outside. And they mentioned that if the lift is down for some reason, they also have a ramp to deploy in the back to provide access, which was incredible to hear. The restaurant is charming inside and laid out with plenty of room to navigate and also enjoy your breakfast without feeling like you're on top of anyone else. The service continued to be absolutely stellar, with everyone working in a flow to make the experience flawless. The food was PHENOMENAL, with fluffy pancakes and crispy thick bacon! I'm still dreaming of the pineapple pancakes with tropical syrup... delicious! Their coffee was perfect, too, and I had their awesome cold brew. To top off this experience, the prices cannot be beat. We were shocked how affordable this meal was, especially given the great portion sizes and quality. Kudos all around to a restaurant that we will be sure to visit again when we're in Anaheim; heck, I may even make a special trip just to enjoy!

The service was fast and we were checked on multiple times at the right intervals. My husband's coffee and my hot chocolate were continuously refilled without having to track someone down. This was our first time there, so we didn't know about portion sizes. We ended up ordering a bit too much but we know for next time. We did family style on everything. My husband ordered the crepes, I ordered the cheese omelet with a side of hash browns and my daughter ordered the pancakes. All very good choices. I think the crepes were definitely the standouts though. I don't think the other items had anything extraordinary about them, but just the overall experience of ordering, easiness, attention to detail from server combined made everything extra special and us wanting to add this place to our favorite places.

The hours never really worked with our schedule either being from 8:30 am to 2 pm. We started off with the Ube Sweet Cream Cold Brew ($7) and Pandan Cold Brew ($7). My bf absolutely loved the ube cold brew and said it was probably the best he's ever had. He loved it so much that he got another one to-go after we finished our meal so that was a rare occurrence lol. The ube flavor was strong even after everything was mixed together. Smooth, creamy and tasty. My pandan cold brew was also pretty good. Usually I feel like pandan is difficult to get a real robust flavor and you end up tasting more coffee than pandan. I could actually taste the vanilla/nutty notes and coconut flavor. Also very yummy after mixing it all together. Cold brew flavor did end up coming out stronger tho but I somewhat expect that. We ordered the Adobo Rice Omelet ($14.95 - Chicken-adobo garlic rice wrapped in a three egg omelet, topped with adobo gravy, fried garlic & scallions) - This was really tasty and kind of heavy for me. Sooo much rice under the omelette bed lol. I was beyond stuffed and couldn't take another bite at the end and ended up packing like 2 bites in a small box. My bf ordered the Jeepney Breakfast Burrito ($14 - Crispy golden potatoes, melted cheese, chipotle aoli, scrambled eggs. Your choice of meat, served with a side of pork chicharron and Sinigang Salsa verde) - This was soo delicious. The chicharron side was a great crunch and sinigang salsa verde with the burrito made it even better. It was over the top for our bellies already with the heavy breakfast, but I still insisted that we try a regular breakfast item like french toast. Ordered the Ube Fruity Pebble French Toast ($16.95) and it was yummy! I definitely needed more fruity pebbles but that's my preference. Staff was friendly and prompt. The place was packed and I had joined the waitlist online prior to coming. Waited less than 10 min when we actually arrived. I also loved the decorations everywhere with the foliage, light fixtures and even the ceiling fans. The Tagalog vocab on the chalkboard is also fun to read and learn. I like that there's still a modern feel to the place.

    Absolutely insane. We went in yesterday, and while the surprisingly short wait times to be seated…read moreand get our food weren't concerning at first, receiving our meals literally about three minutes after ordering definitely raised some questions. The food unfortunately tasted like it had been premade and sitting for a while. The eggs wrapped around the omelette were tough and chewy rather than fresh and fluffy. The French toast itself actually tasted good, but it was absolutely drenched in ube sauce--to the point that it basically turned into French mush. The loaded potatoes were probably the biggest disappointment. The bacon had been cooked to death and was so hard it was difficult to eat, while the tater tots somehow had the opposite problem and were completely mushy. This place has the potential to be a great restaurant, but the food quality was highly disappointing, especially considering how quickly everything came out. I will give credit where it's due, though: the staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. Unfortunately, the service couldn't make up for the quality of the food.
