Attention all chicken fried steak and pie lovers in Frisco, Norma’s is moving into the neighborhood. Norma’s Café has leased a 3,884-square-foot space at The Centre at Preston Ridge shopping center in Frisco, Texas.  This will be the third North Dallas location for Norma’s Café and the first location in Frisco.  It is located on Gaylord Parkway, north of Highway 121 and less than one mile east of Dallas Parkway North.

This is how all relationships should begin.
