If you are looking for a great place to celebrate yourself or just a really good dinner experience you need to check out this restaurant. The price really isn't that bad considering how amazing the food is and we love supporting a local business!! Looking forward to going back again and again !!
Bar Divani hosted our elopement reception a few weeks ago, and it was a 12/10 experience from start to finish. They were really quick with communication leading up to the day which I greatly appreciate! The food & drinks were INCREDIBLE, and the service was amazing. I really loved the ambiance of the space too. Highly recommend whether you're considering hosting an event here, or just stopping in for dinner. Thanks Wendy for all your help!
What a great place! I had a private event here for my Board of Trustees and it was fabulous. Best staff ever... friendly, helpful, and attentive. We did family style food. It was delicious and plentiful. Really great cocktails and a totally cool and unique atmosphere. Thanks Divani!
Took my girlfriend to Divani for her birthday. Shelley was our server and she was beyond outstanding. The lights were dim and the atmosphere was romantic. The food was hand-made and delicious, and the prices were fair. We will be back. This is a pic of the free dessert that they kindly gave us for her bday.
We had a wonderful time at Divani’s. The food and service was top notch. We tried so many restaurants at Grand Rapids but this restaurant was number one on our list. They were so accommodating and kind to us. Everyone in our group of 12 loved their orders. The duck three ways, BBQ ribs and bistro fillet were AMAZING. For appetizers, pierogis, crab cake, guacamole and salsa, and of course cheese tray were our top favorites.
My husband and I made a reservation here for our 2nd year anniversary. It is not a cheap restaurant but the price you pay is well worth the experience. From the moment we walked in the service was welcoming and professional. The hostess kindly greeted us and immediately made us feel like old friends. Our waitress also made us feel like we were her only customers and wanted us to know details about the special and other menu items. The food was delicious. We had the charcuterie board and guacamole/salsa introductions. For the main course we had the bistro filet and the barbecue duck. Both cooked perfectly with delicious vegetables sides. They graciously gave us a complimentary dessert in honor of our anniversary. As we dined our water was kept full but we were not constantly being disturbed. It was a beautiful evening sharing a special occasion at a restaurant I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a “fine dining” experience.
Best drinks you're ever going to have in your life! If you like an Old Fashioned, hold on to your hat! Marcus has 73 different variations he can make for you. Every one we had was amazing!
Bar Divani was a quaint restaurant with an old school lounge ambiance. There are dark colors and low lighting. The food overall was quite good, although I don’t know what the heck happened to the bread, it was genuinely the worst bread I have ever had. No taste, no browning, very soft, very cold, it was like wet flour. They served it with a roasted red pepper butter which had great color but again practically no taste. It was all calories for no payoff.
Anyways, the rest of the food was good! Steak was cooked well and the red wine sauce was yum.
A quick note that they only have one stall bathroom for each gender, so there was quite a line at times which was annoying.
It was nice but also pricey and I don’t know if I would return.
