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!
