★ 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1Divina offered an excellent and well-executed meal for our large group. All appetizers were really flavorful and nicely plated. Definitely try the fried chicken or roasted potatoes with fondue. The roasted chicken and bolognese pasta were well seasoned also. The staff was very friendly and attentive. Not one bite was bad and the menu is expansive. Definitely try this Italian-American style restaurant.
July 12 · jacob sJust had dinner here with my family and we had a great experience overall. All of our main dishes were excellent (branzino, chicken parm, seafood pasta, & pesto pasta).. The white chairs at our table were extremely comfortable and the spicy margarita was great. Although our calamari & meatball appetizers were good, the meatballs seemed to have too much pork mixed in. Overall we had a good meal and will return. Thanks!
August 25 · Perry AnastasakisHad a lovely brunch at Divina Restaurant with friends! The ambience was really nice—warm, inviting, and perfect for a relaxed weekend hangout. We especially enjoyed the spicy mussels—full of flavor and just the right kick. Definitely a spot worth coming back to!
June 15 · Aatiq AntiqueDropped by here for a meal and were pleasantly surprised. Really enjoyed the octopus that was extremely soft and tender. Would recommend their cauliflower bruschetta that had great flavor and texture with mushrooms on top. Lastly, enjoyed their mortadella and home made mozzarella. Definitely all around a pleasant experience. Also dog friendly was a plus!Update: Dropped by here today with my wife and did outdoor seating which they are dog friendly. Would totally recommend some of the dishes we had. One item not pictured is the veg bowl which we demolished before I could get a shot.
August 02 · AndyWe booked the wine room and it was so intimate and warm🤍 We requested to have our food served family style. Enzo is amazing and the servers are beautiful people!
