Absolutely amazing, the service, the food, just awesome
Excellent food and service!
Come to cafe Normandie to experience good renditions of French daily cuisine - with some special event dishes to boot.
Comfort foods of "the old country" are all there. Omelette & lettuce? - yes. Pain bagnat? - yes (from Corsica, not Normandy, but who cares?). Pain et pâte de campagne? - sûre.
What's great about le café Normandie is a non-stuffy, casual approach to common French food. There is no pretense here. I.e., it's very similar to how it would be in France. Imagine having lunch at a mom & pop's place here in the states. It's kinda like that - 'cept how it would be in the hexagon.
The late owner passed away several years agol. He came from the same area in Normandy as my maternal family (Eu/Treport/Mers). We worked together at the Ritz-Carlton decades ago. He was a good guy and I know his patrons miss him.
Nonetheless, things appear to be humming along so I think he'd be satisfied with how good our meals were this week.
The real French dining experience with authentic flavors! I've eaten here many times and it has been an amazing experience every time. Service is nothing short of exellent and the menu has a variety of flavors. Highly recommend!
Fantastic food
What an absolute amazing find! The food here is beyond delicious. Everything we ordered was pure perfection. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming. Not pretentious in the least. We will be back!
This place is great for lunch. I recommend the salmon BLT.
What an absolute treasure to find! The food was spectacular and the owner was so fun and delightful. Praying he opens another restaurant in St. Petersburg soon! Next year when we go to that same area for a bridge tournament I plan to start going through the whole menu every night. How fortunate they are in Naples to have such a quality restaurant in their backyard.
