Our visit to Normas was a great experience. We arrived about 10 minutes before noon, and despite the restaurant not yet being open, the staff let us in to escape the cold. The restaurant itself is charming, with cute decor that creates a cozy, inviting atmosphere. The bathrooms were clean, which I have found this weekend in NYC, is not something you should take for granted. Our server was very friendly. We shared a few dishes: the Gorgonzola salad, which was absolutely delicious and a standout; the Ragu rice ball, which was very good; and a pizza topped with prosciutto and Parmesan. The pizza had a thicker crust, which isn't our personal preference, but it was still tasty and well-prepared.One negative is that they don't except reservation but overall, I'd highly recommend it.

wow. I don't think I've had a better lasagna. fumo had almost a two hour long wait, so my friends and I decided to try this place in the LES. despite not having the appetizers that we wanted, we were all so happy with our dishes. they had pretty unique menu items that you wouldn't be able to find at simpler places, so I love how extensive their menu is. restaurant is extremely dim, but gave such cozy vibes. they had large booths for people to sit in, so it gave a very comfortable atmosphere.

This place was sooooooo good!I came here for lunch on a visit to NYC after looking for reviews that mentioned great bruschetta. This place was delicious! This is definitely in my top 3 of bruschetta around the world now. I would come back here for that alone. The servers were attentive and kind. Decent pricing and a cute restaurant with indoor and outdoor dining.

I really wanted to love this place but unfortunately it was just okay. Their aperol spritz is amazing, bitter but just sweet enough. Ended the meal with a scoop of vanilla gelato which was definitely the star of the show. The pizza was very lacklustre. Very runny so picking it up was hell. The crush was burnt. Personally wouldn't recommend it. I did see another table not finish theirs and wonder if they felt the same way we did For drinks and a sweet treat, this is a pretty good option, but be weary of the pizza!

If you live in Hell's Kitchen or around Lincoln center, this should be your go to pizza spot. The pizza dough was soft & crispy at the end. Just enough sauce and topping for each slice. The service was awesome and look at how much condiments they gave us when we asked for "chili flakes".... The prosciutto & ruculo pizza was my fav but the diavola was also great

This restaurant made it to Michelin bib. The ingredients were extremely fresh. They definitely made the pizza sauce from scratch. We were a little disappointed by the pizza because it didn't seem to contain any salt. I think a little salt would make it more delicious. The appetizer and the dessert were to die for. We got eggplant for appetizer. Even though my partner never liked eggplant, he just finished his portion. We got an ice cream ball rolled in pistachio and sat on whipped cream. It was very creamy and not too sweet. It was very refreshing! Definitely worth a trip.

Unfortunately, since reservations are not available, be prepared to wait for a table, especially on a Saturday night. It was worth the wait. The arancini ball (with spicy shrimp) was a nice starter. We also had the eggplant rolatini and the pasta timbale with sardines. Both were delicious. And the complementary bread and olive oil was a welcome addition to the meal.

Finally I real Sicilian restaurant in NYC. First, the pizza, nothing to compare with any Neapolitan pizza in New York. I have been leaving in Napoli for many years and I have tried all the Neapolitan pizza in New York. The one at Norma is literally the best. Literally the best. We then got anelletti al forno and fettuccine with funghi porcini. Again, pasta al dente and well done as the original Sicilian recipe. I am from Sicily. The wine was perfect. The service was excellent. And the ambiance and atmosphere it is amazing.

Came here with a large party of 12 people on a weeknight right before a Broadway show. They don't really have a pasta menu, but they do have the option of getting a side of pasta with your entrée or there is this other deal of getting their three pastas of the day unlimited. I got their lemon chicken which was delicious. I also tried their lasagna, which was very rich, And their spaghetti with tomato was very good. I wasn't a fan of their smoked mozzarella ravioli.

Terrible service, average food. Ambience was alright.The server came after a long while and provided no recommendations for pizzas and seemed to be in a rush. Would not visit again.
