The service was fantastic. The 20oz steak was cooked perfectly! The Brussels sprouts were the star of the show!!! Followed closely by the pumpkin pie and crème brûlée.

We could not have enjoyed ourselves more! The food was delicious, and our server was attentive and delightful. One of our guests had a food allergy, and the chef made him special gluten-free roasted oysters. He was amazed by the special attention he received. Well done, Kingfisher!

The French onion soup was the best soup I have ever had! The ambiance was great, intimate and it was a perfect late night dinner spot to stumble upon while I was in Mobile. I will definitely be back

NoJa has become our special anniversary tradition, and there's a reason we keep coming back year after year. Once again, we had a wonderful evening celebrating together. I requested a table by the window when making our reservation, and the staff graciously accommodated us. It's those thoughtful little touches that make an occasion feel even more special. The food was outstanding, as we've come to expect. The scallops were cooked to perfection, and the hanger steak was equally impressive. Our server was warm, friendly, and accommodating throughout the evening. One thing we've always loved about NoJa is its atmosphere. It has that wonderful downtown energy, with a sophisticated yet lively ambiance that makes the experience feel special without being overly formal. It can get a little noisy, but that's part of its vibrant character. While it's certainly a splurge, the quality of the food, the atmosphere, and the memories we continue to make here keep us returning. Thank you, NoJa, for another memorable anniversary dinner. We look forward to continuing our tradition for many years to come!
