    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 !

    1st of all... The absolute most FANTASTIC service from start to finish. Cody was phenomenal! Being in the fine dining business myself it was such a welcomed experience. The food was amazing and beautifully presented. Seafood tower, truffle sushi roll, kimchi calamari and the "crispy" escargot were all outstanding! The escargot stole the show!!! My date and I were there 3 hours and never felt rushed and the ambiance made us feel like we were VIPs. Worth every penny!!! Thank you Cody and CHP for a memorable evening!

    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!
