    We had a tremendous dining experience at Amina, to celebrate my wife's birthday. We enjoyed everything from the time we walked in until our departure.

    Our First visit and we had a reservation. Food was really good, however The service was very slow, specifically the bar and Waiter/Waitress table service. We waited over 25 minutes for drinks. I ended up cancelling my drink order. There was not enough Waiter/Waitress staff working Fathers Day.

    We went for Father's Day, it was a great atmosphere, the host was very friendly, the music was great to listen to while you waited for your seat or food and the food was good. Definitely would recommend you take uber or Lyft. Parking is not convenient.
