Gastronomia Siciliana

Norma’s journey began with its inaugural opening in Murray Hill in 2016 and expanded to include Norma Hell’s Kitchen in 2021. Now, in 2024, we’re thrilled to introduce our newest addition in Turtle Bay.

Continuing our tradition of offering the same exquisite dining menu, exclusive Sicilian wine selection, and welcoming atmosphere, each Norma location maintains its unique charm.

Step into any of our locations—Norma Murray Hill, Norma Hell’s Kitchen, or the vibrant new spot in Turtle Bay—and you’ll find soft lighting, curated music, impeccable service, and authentic Sicilian-inspired cuisine. At Norma, we transport our guests from the bustling streets of NYC to the warmth of a casual Sicilian kitchen, making it the perfect setting for date nights, family dinners, friendly gatherings, and more.

Salvatore Fraterrigo

Chef & Owner

“I know today if you go to culinary school, you learn the technique and how to cook. You learn a lot, but you never learn about the passion that you need when you cook something.That you can learn only from family, from nonna and from mama -- they cook for family, not for business. I cook for my customers in the same way.”

Chef Salvatore grew up in Trapani, Sicily where he developed a passion for cooking by watching his mother and grandmother in the kitchen. Little by little he grew up with this fascination for cooking and began his own journey in the culinary world.

Never having been to culinary school, Salvatore discovered his own technique and mixed it with his knowledge and love of Sicilian food.

Salvatore worked this way in restaurants across the United States, opened his own restaurant in Italy, Il Radicchio, and won accolades in both Le Guide de L’Espresso and Sicilia Bell’Italia.

In 2016 he finally opened Norma Murray Hill, and in 2021 a second location in Hell’s Kitchen.

Salvatore plans to continue to cook passionately for his customers with the ultimate goal of bringing to America a little taste of Sicily.
