Gift Tips
- Reserve a table in advance—Amina is small and fills up quickly, especially for dinner and brunch.
- Order the braised oxtails with cheddar grits or yam purée for a hearty, shareable main that many guests praise.
- Try the deviled eggs (lobster version when available) and the cheesesteak beignets as standout appetizers.
- For brunch, get the catfish and grits or the stone-ground blue grits with greens—grits are often called a must-try.
- Ask the bartender for signature drinks like the Amina Crown or the hibiscus-ginger mocktail; the bar staff are known for craft cocktails and attentive service.

AmbienceCasual, Trendy, Intimate
Amina is a Black-owned restaurant in Philadelphia located in the Northern Liberties neighborhood, close to the cobblestone areas and I-95. The restaurant serves elevated Southern and African-inspired comfort food in a stylish, intimate setting.
- Ambiance: intimate, moody, and stylish—exposed brick, warm lighting, and a vibey dining room with occasional live DJs.
- Cuisine: elevated Southern and African-inspired comfort food, with items like braised oxtails, catfish and grits, peri-peri wings, and creative appetizers.
- Highlights: standout dishes include deviled eggs with lobster, cheesesteak beignets, and signature cocktails like the Amina Crown; small space so reservations are recommended.
The menu leans on bold, familiar flavors with thoughtful presentations and generous portions. Guests often mention shareable starters and mains that pair well with their craft cocktails or refreshing nonalcoholic options.
Service is usually attentive and knowledgeable; the staff can accommodate party changes and dietary requests. Because the dining room is compact, consider sitting at the bar if you can’t secure a table. Parking near the restaurant can be limited, so plan accordingly or use nearby lots when possible.
