Erika Umana, Realtor I went in to JJ’s cafe in Garland for a to go order and while I waited the waitress that help me out was nice and kind to offer me some coffee really appreciated that thank you. I didn’t get her name in person but the ticket says Leslie. The food was amazing loved the tres leches pancakes coming from someone that doesn’t really eat pancakes like that but those I can. The red chilaquiles had a really good taste to them and just the right spice as well.

John Salazar Dont be fooled by all the high maintenance Karens complaining about this dallas original. The food is always good, the staff is indeed friendly, and the prices are reasonable. My friends, family and I have been enjoying this establishment for over 20 years. The food is very good, and consistent. Their pies are always on point. Their chili is awesome. Their cfs is classic! Normas is a Dallas original.

Carolyn Gara Had lunch at the Garland location today. The food was, as always, excellent but our waiter, Brandon, made our experience that much better.

R Canatella We tried this place for dinner one evening and we were greeted as soon as we entered and seated right away. Our server Stella came and got our drink orders and asked if we had any questions about the menu. Upon the return of Stella our server we ordered the Catfish Basket and we also ordered Steamed Oysters. We also ordered some boiled Smoked Sausage, Boiled Potatoes and Eggs. The Catfish was cooked to perfection, very flakey and not over fried. The Steamed Oysters which got with Cajun Medium were delicious, we ordered the Oysters lightly steamed which was perfect for us. The Potatoes, Eggs and Sausage was very tasty and cannot wait to return for more. Stella was very attentive and helpful. They have a great Happy Hour and we found the restaurant very clean as were the restrooms.
