I had an amazing time at Divan! I have dined at this establishment several times but this time was different and very memorable. Chavon provided excellent service from beginning to end. She was friendly, attentive, and professional. Her food recommendations for my entree were top tier. I had the Beets Salad and the Duck Confit as my starters. Yum! Harris provided phenomenal service for the Hookah he prepared as apart of our dining experience as well. If you plan to frequent Divan, please ask for Chavon to be your server. She won't disappoint. And Chavon also surprised me with a special birthday dessert that made my day even more magical. 10 out of 10 experience!

Love Serena !!! Been going there since they first opened and it always delivers and NEVER disappoints !!! Service is Superb -- Food is Fabulous !!! Plenty of Favorite Dishes that are always a Step - Above !!! And must share, their Cocktail Menu is Incredibly Special and is always filled with New Creations and Fun Surprises !!! Took some church/work colleagues to celebrate the end of a work day and they both loved it and were still talking about it this morning --- now that's 5-STARS without hesitation !!! That was the first thing I heard about this morning and our server basically created one dish based on simply listening to my friend and what he enjoys .....and BAM!!! There was a fantastic creation that was not on the menu but totally tailored to his taste buds and it was complete enjoyment from the time the plate hit the table to it being "almost licked clean" -- tempting as it was !!!

We had a lovely dinner at SCK. The service was excellent and the food was great. There were a number of larger groups, so it was a lively atmosphere the night we were there. Everyone in the group very much enjoyed their meal.

Another wonderful dinner at our favorite restaurant and we were lucky enough to have Brandy once again be our waitperson. We brought friends from out of state and they loved it. Now we just need Tartufo on the dessert menu!!

What a lovely way to celebrate a birthday! I made our reservation through OpenTable for my dear friend Shelly, who is a pescatarian, so finding a restaurant with wonderful seafood options was a priority. The Big Ketch delivered a delightful evening filled with delicious food, laughter, and genuine hospitality. Our server, Brandon, was fantastic! Warm, personable, attentive, and professional. He made us feel welcome and helped make Shelly’s birthday special. We started with the shrimp and crab au gratin, which was rich, creamy, and absolutely delicious. Shelly also enjoyed oysters. We shared the hot buttered lobster roll, a wonderful indulgence, and I ordered the Green Goddess salad. The salad was fresh and flavorful, although it arrived with what appeared to be feta cheese, which wasn’t listed on the menu. Restaurants should be mindful of disclosing ingredients, particularly for guests with dietary restrictions. My vodka tonic with lime was a bit too strong for my taste, but Shelly happily helped finish it! The highlight was Brandon bringing out a beautiful strawberry shortcake for Shelly’s birthday, charmingly presented in a little glass mason jar. Such a thoughtful touch! A couple of minor misses, but overall, a wonderful evening with excellent service, enjoyable seafood, and plenty of laughter. Brandon deserves special recognition for making our celebration memorable. Life is too short not to eat well! Share a wonderful meal, celebrate the people you love, and find your next great dining experience. Bon appétit!
