    Big Iron special!

    Lovely little breakfast stop, tucked in on Margaret street! I ordered the weekend special, the Big Iron Sandwich, and it was excellent!! Before leaving I ordered the tot head burrito to go with some cake balls for dessert! My servers were so personable and helpful in making my selection for breakfast! I'm sad I live away and can't make this my daily go to spot!!!

    We've been going to Norma J's for the past two years and as much as we love supporting local businesses, and Norma is nice, it's just the service has gone down hill. I've been a server in NYC for IHOP, busy upper east side clubs and restaurants and understand the struggle, but this is a far cry for help. We understand everyone suffered from the pandemic and prices everywhere have gone up- but at least be kind to your customers. The store is beautiful and clean, and everything is actually pretty good, except the service. Today we walked in and on the menu they have smoothies- now they do not have any just a coffee shake for $7! The lox is $12, the stuffed French toast is $13, they even charged extra for a cream cheese- you need to communicate with your customers and stop nickel and diming us. I bought a pumpkin spice iced coffee this afternoon and the cup broke as I was putting cream and sugar in it and it broke and spilled everywhere- instead of paying attention to your customers, the girls were playing with the other children- then when asked for napkins to clean up she said "Don't waste those!!" We were only trying to help. Either way we've tried bringing our friends and family here but we are consistently disappointed every time. Every penny, and clearly napkin is counted and it ALWAYS feels like we're doing THEM a favor by coming in. Small businesses should be glad they're still open post pandemic and grateful that we're supporting them than a Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts. If you want to over spend money for donuts, sugar cookies, toasted lox bagels, mediocre omelettes and French toast- Come here- or go down the street and go to Stewart's or Dunkin Donuts- they at least service you with a smile. Norma Js I still have hope for you and we do want to keep supporting you, but you got a lot of work to do, hire more servers, cooks, bakers, communicate with guests, use alternative high grade sugar and ingredients and smile more. Bakeries are supposed to be fun and enjoyable, have more events for the community and local individuals. Even give extra goods, breads to the homeless community in our neighborhood. We can all just do better.

    Awesome weekend special!!!

    Very nice staff. Fast service. Delicious food. They have breakfast all day and the pastries look wonderful!

When you walk in there's no clear direction on what to do, if you seat yourselves or have to wait to get seated. So my partner and I sat at the counter taking it as the safest bet to be seen to be served on. And after sitting down, couldn't even comfortably have my legs under the counter to eat because the counter was so short you have to sit sideways. We got drinks and closed our menus as a sign that we were ready to order. Another couple came in and sat next to us about 10-15 mins after we got there. That couple had their orders taken well before us and got their food well before us even with us being there near 15 mins before them. It was not busy and it took a while for the food to come out. No one spoke to us at all, was not a very welcoming place or staff. The food came out and was not good at all, I got a simple plate of scrambled eggs, chocolate chip pancakes, and hash browns. The hash browns were very blan and mushy were not crispy at all and just felt every sick after eating. No one checked on us after we got our food or checked to see if we needed something else to drink. Yah the meal was cheap, but it was not good at all. You could get better food and service at a school cafeteria. Very disappointed.

BEVERAGE : coffee with half/half When you search the definition of a restaurant it is described as "a place where people pay to sit and eat meals that are cooked and served on the premises." The definition for customer service is "the assistance and advice provided by a company to those people who buy or use its products or services."..... 5 hours....5 long hours I traveled to the city of Plattsburgh; to embark on another mission which I completed.....But not only did the 5 hour solo car karaoke fest LINKIN PARK helped me complete this mission.. "MICHIGAN PLUS" gave me the energy (THE FUEL) I needed to successfully complete what NEEDED TO BE DONE on this mission... The minute you walk into this fine restaurant you're immediately greeted with the fresh aroma coming from the grill. The chefs, grill masters channeling their energy creating dish after dish after dish. BREAKFAST, LUNCH and DINNER! This fine establishment serves it all!! Even though they're open 7 days a week from 7am till 3pm. I must say my first time in Plattsburgh, first time at Michigans Plus...being recommended this place by a staff at the nearby Hampton Inn... I knew immediately this fine restaurant never ever "missed a step", "skipped a beat". The staff especially my waitress and the OWNER (whom I met)....SO DAMN PROFESSIONAL AND FRIENDLY! EVERYONE TREATED ME with respect and just overall a great customer service. My food....my MEAL.....HOT DAMN!!! Now I know I had a large plate of breakfast. But I needed to prepare for this battle I was going to be in. This mission is important to me for my life and the level I NEED TO ASCEND TO. My pancakes were fully cooked individually filled with FLAVOR, my eggs were SCRAMBLED....SCRAMBLED(with tomatoes). My sausages and bacon all tasted fresh! Everything was fresh.... Quick side note (if only they had other milk options) but overall!!!!!! I am thankful for and happy(plus FULL) all because of the heart of Plattsburgh, NY....Michigans Plus Please support the locals!!!! PS: The mission was an exam.

They have crayons and a coloring menu for the kiddos with fun activities included. They have a nice selection of kids menu- my kids opted for the rainbow sprinkles pancakes. Who knew that breakfast can be served even after 11am!?? This place does!!! The kids meal also comes with a drink, a cookie and choice of side and we got the broccoli. I LoVE that they had fresh veggies to choose from too. One of my daughters even ONLY ate the broccoli and not the pancakes... how in the world that happened I have no idea!! So the broccoli was really good. As for the main menu they are known for their "all day breakfast" menu. I personally got their classic melted chicken sandwich and opted for their homemade onion rings yum!!! It was super filling and a nice stop to fuel up before heading back home. Everyone there was also super nice and friendly too! They checked up on us and asked us if we needed anything which I appreciate. If you are in the area and looking for a family oriented place without breaking the budget or any frills, this is the place to come to!
