    Cool Highly anticipated SoCal diner about to open in Las Vegas

    Def will try it. Druff- Comments?

    Norms, the beloved coffee shop chain founded in Los Angeles in 1949, offers some of the most famous examples of Googie architecture, the futuristic style popular in the mid-20th century, especially among roadside businesses in Southern California.

    The opening of a Las Vegas location has been highly anticipated since the Las Vegas Review-Journal first reported the news about a year ago. Now, the Norms restaurant on West Charleston Boulevard appears to be nearing completion, as evidenced by a visit to the site on Tuesday. A grand opening is planned for early November, according to information received by the RJ.

    Appreciate the “Google architecture” reference @desertrunner. Somehow I had never heard that description before.

    I only cut and pasted the article, not my words.

    Always saw Norm's as no better than Denny's.

    I used to go to this one in Torrance -- notice the 3.2 Yelp rating: https://www.yelp.com/biz/norms-restaurant-torrance

    Most of my visits were a long time ago -- in 1990! I had a girlfriend at the time who liked going there for some reason, so we kinda made it our place. Very pretty girl, but unfortunately passed away in 2006.
