Fodor's Expert Review Norma's
Editor's Note: This location is no longer in operation.
With lovely floor-to-ceiling windows in a tasteful, bistro-like setting overlooking breathtaking Mt. Mansfield, Norma's at Topnotch Resort and Spa has become much more than a resort restaurant: its popularity also attracts locals and traveling foodies. After a spa service, stop by for a plentiful salad made with local organic greens and just-gathered mushrooms served with a plate of Vermont cheeses or seared salmon. Drive up for dinner at sunset on the outdoor, torch-lit patio and sip a lavender blueberry martini or a chili lime margarita. After a day on the slopes, bring the whole family to enjoy hearty portions from a creative seasonal menu—crispy duck breast, seared scallops and roasted fennel, rib eye steak with Bayley Hazen blue cheese and asparagus, and house-baked desserts. An extensive wine list, friendly atmosphere, and excellent service make this a top choice.
