    My wife and I had lunch at Café Normandie during Annapolis Restaurant week. We were glad to be seated near the gas fireplace on a cool drizzly afternoon. We started with a half bottle of Moet et Chandon rosé, which set the stage for a wonderful meal. We both enjoyed the signature French onion soup, rich with gooey melted cheese topping. We followed with croque monsieur for her and trout amandine for me. A chocolate éclair and crème caramel topped it all off. The restaurant was busy, which led to slightly slow service. It was also fairly loud. But the food was excellent, the service was attentive, and the diners were obviously enjoying themselves. All in all, a very pleasant afternoon.

    Went there for lunch during Restaurant Week. Karen, our waitress, was professional and friendly. She was a pleasure. The appetizers, entrees and desserts were delicious. Will definitely return.

    Cafe Normandie was a great choice for dinner. The cream of crab soup was the best. My rack of lamb was perfectly cooked. It was a little noisy but the food was great

    Enjoyed lunch selections from the Annapolis restaurant week menu. The special menu offered more variety than we've seen on others and there was no compromise on quality or portions. Everything was wonderfully prepared and nicely presented by a friendly and very competent staff. Looking forward to many returns.

    Since moving to Annapolis in 2000, this has been our favorite restaurant by far. Great food and experienced workers. Give it a try Annapolis Restaurant week, through March 2, 2025.

    A friend and I enjoyed lunch at Cafe Normandie yesterday. It’s our favorite go-to restaurant when we’re in Annapolis. Fortunately for us, it was Restaurant Week, so we each enjoyed a three-course meal for a very reasonable price. The food was excellent and so was the service. We both started off with a crock of the restaurant’s delicious French onion soup. My friend’s main course was steak frites and mine was salmon cooked with blueberries. Both were exceptional. My friend had crème caramel for dessert, and I had the fruit tart. We also split a bottle of brut rose sparkling wine. The atmosphere was upbeat and vibrant. Patrons were having a good time. I highly recommend Cafe Normandie!
