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.

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.

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!

We had a Valentine dinner on the early special menu which is 3 courses $45. There was a varied selection of appetizer, entree, dessert. The Caesar salad is excellent, mushroom soup ok, not great. Both duck and boeuf bourgonnion were delicious Eclair dessert is excellent, not a fan of pistachio cheesecake . Wine selections are excellent and fairly priced. Our waitress was attentive and efficient Extra charge for bread seems unnecessary at a nice restaurant like this Atmosphere is cozy and comfortable, but tables are very close together. We enjoyed our first visit
