How to Book a Table at NoJa: A Local’s Guide to Seamless Fine Dining in Downtown Mobile

Whether you’re planning a romantic night out, celebrating a special occasion or simply treating yourself to a remarkable meal, NoJa is one of Mobile’s top destinations for upscale dining. Known for its fusion of Mediterranean and Asian flavors, intimate setting and attentive service, NoJa offers a refined yet welcoming experience that’s worth planning ahead for.

Here’s what to know before booking your next reservation and how to make the most of your evening.

Step 1: Make Your Reservation

NoJa is open Tuesday through Saturday from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM, reservations are highly recommended, especially for weekends and holidays.

There are two easy ways to book:

• Online: Visit nojamobile.com and click the Reservations button. You’ll be directed to OpenTable, where you can select your date, time and party size in just a few clicks.
• By Phone: Prefer to speak with someone? Call the restaurant directly at the number listed on their contact page to request a table or discuss accommodations.

Walk-ins are welcome when available, but space is limited and with such a cozy dining room, last-minute seats are rare during peak times.

Step 2: Plan Ahead for Special Occasions

From anniversaries and birthdays to rehearsal dinners and date nights, NoJa’s atmosphere is perfect for celebrations. Here’s how to elevate your reservation:

• Mention the Occasion when booking. Whether online or by phone, leave a note or let the staff know if you’re celebrating something special. NoJa’s team is known for personal touches.
• Arrive Early for a Drink. Their curated cocktail and wine menu is worth exploring before dinner. Sip something seasonal while soaking in the ambiance.
• Ask About Dietary Needs in advance. NoJa accommodates food allergies and preferences when notified ahead of time.

If you're looking for a quiet table or have specific seating preferences, it’s best to mention those while reserving.

Step 3: Enjoy the Full NoJa Experience

NoJa isn’t just about the food (though the seasonal menu is a standout) - it’s the full experience that keeps people coming back. With exposed brick walls, an open layout and a balance of elegance and ease, the setting encourages slow meals and good conversation.

The service is knowledgeable without being formal, and every dish is crafted to impress. From the Chicken Karaage to the signature Line-caught Fish, each plate reflects the creativity and precision NoJa is known for.

Why Booking Ahead Matters

NoJa’s reputation and intimate size mean reservations fill up fast - especially on Friday and Saturday nights. Booking in advance:

• Gives the staff time to prepare for special requests
• Makes your evening stress-free and seamless

If you're planning a visit during Mardi Gras, Valentine’s Day or other popular Mobile events, we recommend booking at least a week in advance.
