We were able to take advantage of one of Cafe Diva's Spring Specials (May- mid June). We chose the meat and shrimp fondue for two. The four dipping sauces were quite flavorful and the portion size was perfect for two. The special also included a chocolate dessert fondue with fruit and lady fingers. The dark chocolate was good enough to want a spoon to finish it. Service was friendly and attentive without rushing us. Nice dining is expensive but worth it at Cafe Diva.

It wasn’t bad.. the service was great. It’s made out to be a fine dining establishment but the quality of the food didn’t reflect that. Catch of the day was bland and venison had no flavor.

Super service—thanks Casey. Started with the three pea wedge. Had the gnocchi and the daily fish. Both were very good. The fish was truly outstanding.

Phenomenal - Chef Kate and her team have the perfect balance of genuine connection, personalization, and attention to detail. The long history and committed staff is proof that they are doing hospitality and culinary right. We savored every bite of Chef Kate’s ingenuity, and appreciated the sommelier’s suggested glass of wine that paired just perfectly. Casey was a gem and master of the dining room. Thank you everyone for a memorable evening. We will be in again!

Warm and inviting with attentive and very friendly staff. The food was delicious with a wonderful presentation. Our waiter, Nicholas, was a delight and very knowledgeable and very helpful with selections. Although the price points may appear high the value for the food is worth it. Ample portions. We had a beautiful evening and look forward to enjoying the chefs very creative culinary delights.
