  great food.
  
  not the cheapest place around but still great food especially lunch specials.
  lunch is better than breakfast which is average. lot's of competition in the area for breakfast.  service was slow I guess low on staff that day.
  owners are great people who help out churches and charities.
  very clean...very very clean.
  just didn't like the door slamming constantly. and cold air blowing in when it did...only reason for 4 instead of 5.

  Based on the reviews, I went off the beaten path to go to Norman's. I should have stayed on the beaten path. The service was friendly, but it took forever to get my food. The highlight of the meal was the flavor of the hot dog--it was very tasty. But things go downhill after that. The chili was good, maybe, but I couldn't really tell in the sea of wet slaw under which it was buried. Almost exactly three years ago, Yelper Sam J observed that the crinkle fries were "extremely undercooked,  barely warm, and almost inedible". Evidently, this has not changed. I always finish my fries. But I couldn't. The server had touted some home made potato wedges, and I ordered some to give me more material on which to base this review. They were just thick, heavy wedges of potato with little flavor. It was essentially like eating a plain baked potato. The burger was not very flavorful.
  
  Other reviews are so high on this place. I did not have that experience today. Yet I find myself wondering if their other homemade vittles are any good. But the food today was so disappointing that I can't see a return visit. So I guess I'll never know.

  Have ate here for 20 years and it has been consistently good.  Best grilled cheese and pickles I have ever had in my life.  Will keep coming here for 20 more years!

  Super friendly service, clean restaurant, and very tasty food at an affordable price.  Off the beat and path but known by the locals.  It is worth taking a side trip to it.

  This place is super simple but very tasty. The burger they have here (can't recall the name of it off the top of my head) is so huge that you have to cut it in two to fit it in your mouth! I left with a serious food coma (which was a good thing after a long day of fishing).
  
  Also - it might funny to mention this - but the sodas from the fountain were super tasty. Not all sodas are really. This Coke was perfect.
  
  Great service too. Once again - simple but enjoyable. Not a destination, but if you're driving through, you can't go wrong here.
