I received the third degree from at least 3 servers making sure i was going to fill the table. I assured them i was. You have to get here early bc otherwise you can't get a place to sit. I ordered a lemonade and mac and cheese. Mac and cheese took like 30 min and was $10 for a small bowl. Better than last time i was here but not worth the wait. It took so long and my friend who arrived after me got her potato skins i was like maybe they forgot about me. When i was finally able to flag down a server i was told the kitchen was backed up but that they could check on it for me. I had also asked for water with no cucumber which finally came an hour later when i asked again. The servers seemed to be avoiding us and when you could get someone to stop they were disinterested and acted like i was inconveniencing them. I had my hand up for several minutes bc i had no idea how to get my servers attention for a box, my check and my water. The food here is overpriced and the service is terrible. The patio was freezing and loud. 10/10 do not recommend.

I assume you could always make it a double if you want it a little more substantial. The only thing that could make this place better is if they had fountain drinks, and hand cut fries.

You can tell they are making everything from scratch and the vibe in here matched that! 10/10

My friend had the four-vegetable choice and she said they were good - as she slathered butter onto the homemade cornbread and rolls. DH and his friend had chicken-fried chicken and chicken-fried steak and my husband said it was one of the best chicken-fried steaks he'd had in a long time. Service was great and attentive and we enjoyed the whole dinner. It's an older cafe (the first Norma's, I believe). We'll be back for the good homemade food. A couple behind us bought two whole pies and they looked great, but we were way too full to order any for ourselves.

Good music, the dj was entertaining, engaging with the audience, curating dance competitions, etc. It was fun, so for that... bonus stars. But when we get to the details of the establishment, that's where the fun ends. OVER-priced, watered-down drinks - and I won't even mention how they're $25, for a cup of sour mix essentially. So if "vibes" alone is what you're looking for, go for it!

So I stopped at a hotel in Dallas, and I was starving, and I saw this place across the street and…read morefigured that I'd go in and get some tacos. When I entered I was immediately, at the door, shaken down by security guards who were checking everyone coming in for ID and apparently weapons. Very strange. Very unexpected for what I thought was just a normal Mexican restaurant. Anyway, I went with it because hey...tacos. As I walked into the place I realized that it was more of a Mexican sports bar than a regular restaurant, with a big emphasis on the bar. Lots of people. Kind of loud. Huge containers of beer on many tables. Even huger TVs with lots of sports. And the most unexpected thing...the wait staff was all nearly naked. Not like hooters or twin peaks with skimpy uniforms...but as close to naked as one could be without being naked. Strange. Unexpected. Anyway, the place was lively, the prices were good, and the tacos and beans were really fantastic. Would definitely order again. So if you're in the market for some delicious tacos and sports and large containers of beer, and you don't mind being shaken down by security guards and being served by nearly naked people, give this place a shot.

My boyfriend and I pass by this place and we were curious as to what it was.We finally stopped by,…read morea little confused as it's advertised as a bakery (the baked goods looked like they were store bought) and upon ordering the cashier seemed like she didn't care, no warmth. My boyfriend ordered two tacos, two coffees and a muffin. She didn't charge us for the muffin (Which seemed like they were the large muffin you get from Costco anyway) so we asked for it again. There were three options, but she only offered two after I let her know I wanted the option she didn't offer. The way the coffee condiment section is set up on an old stove ( which I thought was charming ) but you have to walk to the fridge to grab the gallon of milk (which is far from the condiment bar) a little inconvenient... Overall we were both confused as to if it was a bakery seeing that some of these items do not seem like they're made in house, nor do you see baked goods being made since it's an open kitchen. Is it a taco shop? Confused...

Fresh crisp veggies, juicy meat, melty cheese, thick bacon, buttery buns...my mouth is watering right now just thinking about it. The fries are homemade style and seasoned to perfection. I asked the front counter for extra seasoning before tasting the fries and in true down home family fashion they instructed me to taste them first...they were right! No need for extra seasoning and they weren't salty either. Only downside- I'd like more fries in my combo. Even with that being said the cost of a combo is still appropriately priced. Let me clear and say there is a certain caliber of burger I enjoy because my grandpa owned a burger stand in the 90s.
