It was here that many people tried to alleviate life's stresses by numbering themselves with good food, good wine, and good company. The owner/chef of the Osteria would take the utmost pride in stocking these praised elements as the basis for mouthwatering meals, a delicious dance-for-all of the five senses.

    I have been dining at Cafe Normandie since I was a midshipman (an early female) at the Naval Academy. I now live in Annapolis and this is one of my truly favorites. Do not miss the escargot !

    Service is excellent and attentive, the atmosphere is closer to NYC Manhattan than Annapolis which I love, cozy yet comfortable. Alternatively sit outside and you feel like you are in Europe! Excellent cocktails and bread service before dinner. The 4 course special includes an appetizer, a salad, an entree, and a dessert, a terrific value even if you need to take the dessert home with you after such a wonderful Italian meal. The quality and taste of the food is Luna Blu’s strongest suit, creative dishes and presentations that will leave you eagerly awaiting a return visit. Best Italian in Naptown by far!
