    The cocktails were pretty fancy and tasted good. We ordered the soup, steak frites, spinach and mac n cheese. The steak was decent, but overpriced for what it was. The fries were very basic. Mac n cheese tasted pleasant but was underwhelming. Average portion sizes. Overall the food wasn’t worth the price. The service was friendly but nothing special. The ambience was pleasant, very quiet, nice decor. Good for a date night but I think you can find better food for half the price

    The music was wonderful, the atmosphere is stunning, The service was terrible…! We waited for everything drinks, appetizers SLOW ! My cold lobster cocktail was not good at all the lobster was soggy, the meat was mush. Then came dinner my girls soup potato leek was terrible and they didn’t bring her a soup spoon ..? We had to ask for one. They forgot my asparagus. But my bone is fillet might have been the BEST I ever had 👊🏽  Too many misses for me to ever come back

    The building itself has a great vibe and the bartenders make great drinks……it quickly went down hill from there. The was service was awful. Our party of 6 got delayed food or missing drinks. We were not checked in on by our waiter. The bus gentlemen were more attentive and had better restaurant etiquette. We were in that place for 3.5 hours.. The food was absolutely disgusting. The NY strip was thin and mostly gristle. The twice baked potato was undercooked and to top it off the steak knife would not cut meat. It was laughable at that point. The manager did try to rectify the bad experience and gave us a discount. He was very king and pleasant and I really hope this place can succeed.

    We were flying in from out of town and our flight was delayed. We were going to miss our reservation at Divan. They accommodated us perfectly and we had an amazing meal! So yummy. And the wine list...don't get me started...amazing!

    Food and ambience were nice. Service needs improvement. We went on Mother's Day Sunday and it seemed they were very unprepared for the day. They were out of several items on the main, dessert and drink menus. Service was very slow. The main dishes came out at different times. The staff was nice and apologized for it, but still it was not the memorable experience I was hoping for.

    I found this restaurant online and the reviews looked good so I decided to try it out for my birthday. The food was awful. I ordered the ribeye with asparagus and baked potato. The ribeye was overcooked and everything was cold when it reached our table. I had to send everything back. When I got my food back everything was super bland and not tasty at all! The drinks were also bland and nothing spectacular. The noise level was too loud for my liking. There was a live performance so you had to basically yell to have a conversation. I thought it was nice that they have a little bar downstairs and the DJ that night was actually good but overall I did not enjoy my experience.

    The experience overall was great. The food was ok, we had the chocolate chip cookie which was a bit hard, the collard greens had a heavy vinegar taste. However, the drinks were amazing and our waiter was fantastic!!
