Norma Joes is a new drive thru restaurant located on the Northside of town. I have passed by this place several times and wanted to try her food. Well this particular day, I was headed to a meeting on that end of town and I had not eaten lunch. I didn’t want fast food, so I decided to give Norma Joes a try.
Upon arrival into the driveway, I had no idea what she served so I began to look over the menu. She has a menu posted on her building which gives the customers a chance to preview the menu and decide on what to order.

I was undecided on whether or not I wanted the Creole wrap or the Smokey Bacon Chicken Wrap. The Parmesan Crusted Catfish topped with Cream Basil sauce also stood out to me. Lol. I was on a health kick so I wanted something a little healthy. After a little deliberation, I chose the Creole Wrap. The Cajun Creole Wrap consisted of Creole Shrimp Sauce, Fried Catfish, crunchy iceberg lettuce in flour tortilla wrap with fries.
Upon view of this tortilla, I was impressed. It looked amazing and the portion size was awesome for the cost. Pictured below is the wrap. The tortilla was toasted and cut in half. My first bite was absolutely delicious. She fried the catfish and made a creole sauce. The flavors were awesome. All of the ingredients together balanced each other out and complimented each other well. I couldn’t eat the entire wrap. The fries were ok. Nothing over the top, but they were good.
Norma Joes has a variety menu. Anything from burgers to wraps to Praline Chicken, Hot Dogs, Chicken sandwiches, etc.. Her menu is very creative and different. She has a lunch special each day that showcases one particular item along with her other menu items. Pictured below is her to go menu.
Overall I was very impressed with Norma Joes. She was very friendly and the service was great. I am looking forward to trying something else at her place. I hope that she has great success, because her food is definitely worth every penny.
The cost of her food is inexpensive for the type of food that she prepares. Mrs. Norma Joes is located at 406 Garfield Street, Lafayette, LA, 337-233-5958. They are opened Sun-Mon 10:30-2:30 Tues-Fri 10:30-3:00.
