Planning the Ultimate Date Night at NoJa

At NoJa, we believe every great love story deserves a beautiful setting — and there’s no better place to celebrate yours than right here in the heart of downtown Mobile. Whether you’re planning a first date, celebrating an anniversary or simply carving out time to reconnect, we’re here to help you create a date night that feels both intimate and unforgettable.

From our seasonal menu to our romantic courtyard, here’s how to plan the perfect evening with us.

Our historic downtown location offers timeless charm and elegance. Tucked into North Jackson Street, NoJa blends cozy sophistication with the relaxed ambiance of a European bistro. For couples who love dining al fresco, our climate-controlled courtyard provides an open-air experience that’s comfortable year-round — soft lighting, warm service and a space that invites you to slow down and savor.

Every dinner at NoJa begins with choice and ends in delight. Our prix-fixe menu is designed to let you build your perfect three-course evening starting with bold, seasonal flavors.

Start with an appetizer that sparks conversation, like:

• Seared Scallops over butternut squash grits with house-made pesto
  
• Brussel Bowl with miso-ginger sauce and toasted sesame seeds (a vegan favorite)
  

Then choose a refreshing, flavorful salad, such as:

• The Spinach Salad, finished with applewood smoked bacon and bacon vinaigrette
  

For your entrée, we recommend:

• The 8 oz. Hanger Steak, topped with goat cheese and red wine reduction
  
• Or the Pan-Seared Salmon with our house lemon-caper sauce
  

Every dish is served with seasonal vegetables and your choice of potatoes, fingerlings or mushroom bread pudding. View our current weekly menu to see what we’re serving tonight.

Sip and Savor Together

NoJa’s handcrafted cocktails and curated wine list are perfect for toasting the evening. Choose something light and bright like our Blueberry Lemon Drop, or share a bottle of your favorite wine from our expansive selection. Looking for something more indulgent? The Chocolate Martini is a romantic pick for dessert hour.
