    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.

    BBBB & Hotcakes.

    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.

    Overall decent quality food…read more I went for breakfast date. It was my first time visiting. The staff were friendly and boy was it packed. My meal was french toast appetizers, Bella! Bella! Benny with a Orange Mimosa. The french toast was of the highest quality. They were sweet, fluffy, and flavorful. Nothing was too overwhelming. I chose the Bella Bella Benny, because I wanted something savory. The vinaigrette was a little too heavy handed for my liking. It overtook a lot of the other flavors that the Benedict had. Unfortunately, it relegated the other ingredients in the dish. The Mimosa was standard. It didn't taste like it was freshly squeezed but something I could've made at home. Store bought Orange Juice being a little heavy handed in the alcohol. It's not terrible, but don't expect it to WOW you. Overall, it was a quaint place, that has plenty of options. With the right staff and ambiance, it's a place I would go again to try another plate.

I came in here two weeks ago to place a to- go order since the wait time was over an hour. Shoutout to the hostess Sophia who was amazing! Very knowledgeable on the menu , friendly , happy , quick , and made me want to come back to see if the other employees were just as awesome! She helped me from start to finish deciding what to order , while also seating other parties so quickly . She taught us that we can join the waitlist online and skip a wait , and brought our coffee for us while we waited for food. Amazing service !

Our waitress was quick and attentive , even when it looked like the new tables just kept coming in! The employees here seem great , however the prices are steep. Weather that's worth it or not depends! Thanks for a fantastic breakfast , pancake house!

Sometimes you have to put in real work to cut pancakes with a fork and knife, but these ones were an ideal consistency. I loved the skillet as well: flavorful beef, savory eggs, and my server even suggested adding cheese. Speaking of my server-- Ray Y was absolutely seamless. My coffee cup was always full, he brought me extra cups of milk instead of me having to bug him for it, he brought extra napkins without me needing to ask, and he kept me up to date on how my food was coming along. I also enjoyed the wooden pillars in the center of the restaurant, it added a nice touch. Anyway, I had a great time. I'm not in Anaheim often, but now I have another reason to drop by.

Other than that, we had a really enjoyable experience and would happily come back!
