Divan Restaurant & Bar

My mom and I had reservations for Sunday brunch. It was the first time for both of us. We were greeted to our seats by the GM Andrew who explained the specials. He was very helpful with detailing the favorites. We had Kenneth as our server, who was very friendly. Andrew and Kenneth were both very attentive to our needs and dietary restrictions. We were given a complimentary app by the chef Christian. The recommendations were great and the meals were amazing!! Fresh, flavorful, and colorful ingredients. The portion sizes were generous. Commendations for a delightful experience and a warm atmosphere. Our compliments to the entire staff. We will definitely return.

Raven was such an excellent server. She was patient and gave us a great experience. Food was well portioned and tasted great. Would definitely go back. Recommend the lamb chops and lamb shock. The roasted oysters were also really tasty,

Ordered the lamb chops with spiced potatoes, shrimp with dill rice and a side of regular potatoes. The spiced potatoes were definitely spicy, but the regular potatoes were amazing. The first 2 lamb chops were very good, but the rest were salty. The sauce that came on the lamb chops were very good. The shrimp dish was good. Service was a little underwhelming for such a nice place. We had to flag our server down twice for service and because of that, we didn’t order a second cocktail or get dessert. Seemed to be too much of a hassle. Maybe a weekday night will have better service.

Food was decent. Our table outdoors was a bit untidy. Similarly the cutlery and plates we got weren’t the cleanest. Service on slow side. Portion sizes are quite large and generous. Lots of vegetarian options so would recommend. The watermelon and feta salad as well as the cauliflower were really good. Naan bread could be softer.

Our previous experience here was not that great but the management reached out to us and asked us to give them an other try. I’m glad that we did! Our experience this time was day and night in comparison to our previous experience. Our server (Gee) was amazing. He was very friendly and attentive. We ordered the mussels and falafel as the appetizer and both were really good. I ordered the lamb burger and it was on the spicy side but it had a really good flavor. My wife ordered the blackened salmon pasta and she enjoyed it as well. I highly recommend ordering the Old Fashioneds here. I ordered both the peach and Persian and both were made perfectly. Based on experience this time I do recommend this place!

Great space for having a quaint dinner or a group of guests. The decor is very modern and pleasing to the eye. Great aesthetics throughout the restaurant . Enjoyed a dinner party for a birthday celebration. Packages are available must order packages from food menu and drink menu. We were on the 4th floor in the Mississippi Atlanta room . Decently large space for about 30 to 40 guests. I didn't particularly agree with their only being one server allotted to our area for that number of guests. She was definitely going non-stop. We would have preferred there be at least two servers for that number of guests. There was a gentleman on staff that did come in and help towards the end. However she had to balance the entire party alone . Other than that, the elevator is a little frustrating because only three people can fit on it and it moves extremely slow when it comes to going up to the fourth floor. Not everyone is able to climb four flights of steps. However that is where the dinner party room was located. Maybe work on trying to make your restaurant a bit more handicap accessible for those who may need it, and also adding more servers to parties over 20 . The food was absolutely delicious. There was a four or five course menu to choose from. The food came out and shareable portions which was plenty. I can't say enough about the meal because it was delicious. The lamb chops were absolutely amazing! The dessert array was very delicious and pleasing to the taste buds. The salad to start was very fresh and the hummus was amazing! Cross the board for the food! The allotted time for the event space was 2 hours which is a bit of a crunch. They do allow hookah there is hookah served. They had a beautiful lounging area and deck outside of the party rooms where Guess we're able to gather and enjoy hookah. Valet is available that's the most conducive way of parking being that street parking is available and there is a parking garage a little further down the street. Mocktails were available which were definitely a great addition to the menu, very tasty. It was extremely warm in the party room. It felt like there was no air circulating at all. Guesswork using fans and what not to keep cool. That was definitely a negative . There is also only one hour allotted for setup.

Everything about this place was exceptional. This is only the 2nd restaurant I've ever been to that I thought should charge more. Every recommendation that our waiter Sain made was on point. My wife said ummm at every bite of the whipped Labne. The Old Fashioneds (peach and banana) were really good as well as the Tropical Long Island Iced Tea (with Dragonfruit and Blood Orange). The Medium Rare Shish Kabob was one of the best meals I've ever had. The meat melted in my mouth and I have no idea how the rice was so rich with flavor. This is one of the best dining experiences that my wife and I have ever had. We ate there a couple of hours ago and I've already recommended it to several people. All this on top of being in a really cool historical venue.

We attended a wine dinner and it was amazing! The professional staff easily handled a crowd of 60 wine drinkers and cuisine buffs. Chef Christian is an up and coming powerhouse and we look forward to the next event! I would highly recommend visiting!

My boyfriend and I visited Divan for dinner during our first time in Atlanta, and it instantly became one of our favorite spots. Everything about this place -- from the drinks to the food to the service -- was outstanding! We started with drinks. I had the Purple Rain, and he had the Blossom Martini. The Blossom Martini was truly fabulous -- a perfect 10/10 with an amazing balance of flavors and a unique presentation. The Purple Rain was also delicious and refreshing. For an appetizer, we had the spicy shrimp. Here's a tip: it's not on the menu, but they do have it if you ask! The shrimp came out hot, fresh, crispy, and perfectly seasoned. It's definitely worth ordering. For our entrée, we shared the lamb chops, and wow -- everything on the plate was exceptional. The seasoned potatoes were absolute perfection. I could eat a whole plate of them by themselves! The spinach was also seasoned very well and paired nicely with the lamb chops, which were tender and packed with flavor. Another 10/10! Our experience was made even better by our amazing waitress, Taj. She was incredibly fast with everything. Our drinks came out in no time, and our food followed quickly after. The customer service we received was truly phenomenal, and Taj made sure we had everything we needed throughout the evening. Overall, Divan exceeded our expectations. From the impeccable service to the incredible food and drinks, this place is a must-visit! I 1000% recommend it to anyone in the Atlanta area. It's already on our list of favorites. Trust me, try this spot -- you'll thank me later!

Very chic, kinda echo-y. Server was nice and didn't feel rushed for her time when ordering. Food came out surprisingly faster than I expected! The food was all good, good size, and fairly priced.

Divan was delicious. The potatoes were seasoned to perfection and the lamb chops were cooked to a perfect medium temperature. I dined in with my sorority sisters for our Founders' Day (skee-wee) and a server brought us a complimentary round of rose to celebrate. I also had a martini and that was good. Although we were a large group, the waitress split checks with no problem. The ambiance was dark and cute. I enjoyed the decor. Negatives: 1) no parking (valet is $11), and 2) I think management could do a better job training staff about menu items. When I asked where the oysters for the day were from, I was told "the Atlantic," which isn't a terrible response, but if you're going to offer certain items, prepare staff for the important questions. She followed up with "in the MA area," but the initial response put me off. I was actually surprised to see oysters on the menu in the first place, so that interaction made me feel like they're offered as a money grab for the restaurant.

Ambiance and service are 5 stars! The food was not as amazing as I was anticipating - especially for the price. But, worth a try for sure. Divan is conveniently located right across the street from the Atlanta Symphony. So, if you have a show, Divan is a great pre-show dinner! The drinks were delicious. They weren't the most unique, but very well mixed and great flavor. I forgot to take a picture of the oysters, but that was one of my favorites. Divan is known for their lamb chops, and they were very good, but not the best I've ever had. They also have some other options - I got a lamb bolognese. Again, good but not memorable. Persian and Mediterranean food is my favorite, but there are soooo many amazing places to compete so I'm not Divan is my top pick. I wonder if they change the menu for summer - I would go back if there was even more to try. Great for a date, and worth a try! Make sure to reservation - it's a cozy vibe. There is an outside, but it was freezing when we went so I'll save that for spring!

I came to Divan last night to celebrate an anniversary with a few friends and my party happened to run in to some traffic, although we were late , Divan was able to find a way to accommodate us so we could celebrate with each other! I was very surprised and pleased by that! This is not my first time at Divan, it's actually somewhere I recommend to people looking for good quality food, ambience, and pricing. This is probably my fourth or fifth visit to Divan and I usually get some of the same items. We ordered a hookah and I got the Divan Salad (delicious) with Chicken Kabob, as well as the Duck Confit which is my favorite appetizer on the menu! It's so tender, juicy, and tasty! Our server was very kind and we weren't rushed from our table or anything like that. We really enjoyed our time, I expect nothing less at Divan! I'm sure i'll be back again soon! :)

Let me just start by saying, Divan is that girl when it comes to flavor. I had the Shrimp & Couscous, and let me tell you, those tandoori-marinated shrimp paired with spicy sujuk beef sausage had me doing a happy dance at the table. And the scallion gremolata? Chef's kiss! I also stole a bite (or three) of my friend's Traditional Hummus & Lamb, and oh my goodness, it was bussin' so hard I almost asked the waiter for a bib and a to-go box for a dish I didn't even order. Top-tier food, hands down! Now, let's talk about the valet situation. It's $10--fine, I'll pay for convenience. But there was only one valet driver for twenty of us. ONE. By the time my car came around, I had already planned next week's meals and scrolled through Instagram twice. If patience isn't your thing, you might want to Uber and save yourself the wait. Overall, the food is worth every penny and calorie, but maybe bring snacks for the valet line. Will I be back? Absolutely. I'm just bringing a folding chair and some crackers next time.

A1!! Lamb chops and Pasta Christa thank you for the recommendation ! I think I found my new Atlanta spot when I'm in town! From LA

What an amazing dining experience! I visited Divan for the first time this evening, and it was exceptional. Our server, Camille, was outstanding. The lamb chops are a must-try. The atmosphere was delightful, and I highly recommend this place.

It was a beautiful birthday dinner for a friend. The ambiance really sets the tone for great food and service. The 6 spice potatoes appetizer and the hummus spread (not pictured) were great. Mussels 9/10. White wine sauce really brings out they the flavor. some of the mussels seemed just slightly cooked longer then I would prefer. Would still have this again! Lamb Shank 10/10 nice tender, not too gamey piece lamb shoulder in a flavorful stew pot. Rice was perfection. Garlic Shrimp 9/10 large garlic butter tender pieces of shrimp. Lamb burger 8/10 really great crispy on the outside, tender on the inside patty. Could use a bit more flavor but not mad at it. Cucumber salad really nice touch.

Rude & attitude! The staff is as bitter as their drinks. They clearly don't want to be there & wish you weren't either.

This restaurant was one for the books. Let me start off with the service, the waitress was so helpful and friendly. She suggested great dishes. The food came out fairly quickly and black bean hummus was very unique and delicious. The food overall was very tasty. The saffron chicken was marinated to perfection, it was juicy and well cooked and everything paired really well together. The potatoes were also classic and well seasoned. I am a Mediterranean food enthusiast but haven't heard anyone talk about this place. I loved the fact that they had different spaces for Hookah and Food and for people who just wanted to dine in. We will be back!

Duck confetti was my favorite thing on the menu! WOW! And for a place with multiple floors, the service was fast, considerate and exceeded my expectations. The ambiances changes throughout the night and depending on the floor or patio. Enjoyed my time here and will definitely be coming back!

It was an excellent night at Divan. We were planning to catch a show at the Atlanta Orchestra across the street, so it seemed like the perfect time to try this restaurant. I had read somewhere that it was a romantic spot. They showed us to your table, or I could say room. We walked up to the third floor of this huge house and were sat in a huge room that I imagine used to be a master dining room when the place was a 1 family house. Our server came over and was a guy named Gee. I expected a youthful sarcastic intro but he was smart and polite. He was went over the menu a bit and got our drinks. I got a D' Rum Rum. that was great. We started with Crab risotto croquettes, which were fantastic. for my entrée I got the Blackened verlasso salmon. The service was great, the salmon was out and on the table pretty quick. And man, it was perfect. The sauce and tomatoes an oyster mushrooms really complemented the flaky mouth watering salmon. From the ambiance of the great room to the food itself, not to mention the attentive service, it may be the best restaurant experience I have had in ALT so far.

I'm glad I made it back to this place. Glad there's valet because it seems hard to find street parking. We came in on a late Friday night. Also glad they stay open late. We were seated quickly since we weren't getting hookahs. Very cool looking spot on the inside. We were led upstairs to the dining area. Tables are set up closely to each other. Not a fan of that but thankfully not very many patrons at that time. We started with espresso martinis. Very good. Also the hummus and naan, crab risotto croquettes, and spice potatoes to start. All were great apps. As entrees we had the garlic shrimp with Dill basmati rice, garlic butter sauce, the Divan Salad with salmon. I must say that the salmon was cooked to perfection and seasoned awesomely. Which says alot bc for some reason most place overcook the salmon. Service was attentive and friendly. All in all we had a good food experience.

I've frequented their establishment when it was located in Buckhead and looked forward to seeing how they transitioned to the new midtown location. The building is an old mansion that was eventually turned into a bed and breakfast and now houses Divan. A lot of thought was put into the aesthetic. I went around Halloween and the restaurant was completely decked out for the holiday and now they have Valentine's Day inspired decor. They have several bars and full dining service. The menu is the same as far as I call recall and is composed of Mediterranean and Persian dishes. They have an excellent cocktail menu as well. My go-to's are the crab risotto croquettes and the garlic shrimp entree. The crab croquettes are delicious, but the portion is small. The garlic shrimp is served with dill flavored basmati rice and has a scrumptious butter sauce. The 6 spice potatoes are very good too. I sampled my friend's duck leg confit and was blown away. I instantly regretted not ordering it! The flavors were amazing and the duck was very tender. The customer service is good overall. My only cons are the $10 valet and the "security " out front asking if people if they're carrying any concealed weapons.

The food was delicious, and the staff was attentive throughout our visit. Unfortunately, the mixed drinks were disappointing, and we had to send back a few food and drink items. However, the team was very accommodating and made sure we were satisfied with our order. There is no on-site parking, only valet, or you can park in a nearby garage and walk over. While the interior could use a renovation, it's still a great spot to relax. They also do a nice job of separating the restaurant area from the hookah lounge.

Divan Restaurant and Bar exceeded my expectations with a solid 10 out of 10 rating. I organized a Galentine's dinner on February 17, and the outstanding customer service truly stood out. Despite a minor hiccup in my reservation, the manager, Andrew, went above and beyond to ensure our satisfaction. Originally , I had booked for a dining room for my event but later called the restaurant requesting to be switched to the hookah rooms. On arrival, there was a mix-up, but Andrew swiftly accommodated us in the hookah room, creating a seamless experience. Once seated, our server welcomed us warmly, maintaining a perfect balance between attentiveness and efficiency, allowing us to enjoy our Galentine's celebration. Now, before getting into the culinary delights, let's discuss the restaurant's striking decor and ambiance. Spanning four floors, each with its unique theme, Divan exudes elegance and sophistication, creating an intimate atmosphere. I highly recommend this establishment for any occasion, be it a gathering, date night, or a solo dining experience. Now, onto the culinary journey. To kickstart our meal, Andrew graciously treated our table to a complimentary Hummus Duo with Tabouleh, a gesture that added to the exceptional customer service. The appetizer left us impressed, with its freshness and well-seasoned components earning it a solid 10/10. I wholeheartedly recommend trying it on your next visit. Thanks Andrew! Selecting the Blackened Verlasso Salmon for my entree, I found the fish well seasoned and flavorful. However, the Fettuccini Alfredo pasta accompanying the salmon fell short, lacking the anticipated depth of flavors. Overall, the entree received a 6/10, falling into the realm of average. As for the other dishes at my table, including Divan's Spice Blend Beef Shish Kabobs, Slow Cooked Lamb Shank, and Spice-Roasted Double-Cut Lamb Rib Chops, my guests unanimously raved about how delicious their entrees were and gave each of their meals a 10/10. Overall, my experience at Divan's Restaurant and Bar was nothing short of amazing. I highly recommend trying this establishment for yourself, as the diverse menu and exceptional customer service are sure to leave you impressed. Highlights: A four-story building with ample space Attire: Classy Casual, Business Casual, or Business Attire Valet and street parking available Reservations are recommended

Long overdue review.. Divan is located in Midtown in which they call the "castle." It's very dark and dungeon like. They have four floors the first is the hostess and waiting area, the second is the dining room, the third and fourth hookah, and the cigar lounge. The Persian Mediterranean theme isn't very present throughout the restaurant, but more geared towards the food. I wasn't throughly impressed. The presentation was wonderful, but the flavors just weren't there for me.

Great overall dining experience... ambiance is mature and sexy. You can comfortably have a conversation as well as enjoy the scene. The food was good. I came late and would need to come back again to determine how good the food is but definitely try the duck. It was spot on! Parking should be valet only.

First time at this location. It's beautiful inside. And with 5 levels I was told. The service was amazing and the food was and usually is really good. I can on a Friday night and it was the perfect time of the evening, sitting on the patio with the wind blowing. Perfection.

This is one of those hidden (or not so hidden) gems located in Midtown Atlanta. The architecture of this building is beautiful and the food is great as well! There are 5 floors centering around a Mediterranean theme that invites guests to enjoy a variety of foods from hummus, to kabobs, to baklava. There is even an option to purchase hookah if it interests you. During my visit I thoroughly enjoyed the turkey and pistachio meatballs for the appetizer, while the shrimp was a crowd favorite during the main course. Not to mention those cocktails were top tier! The staff at Divan is very attentive and there's also a very convenient $10 valet right in front of the entrance. If you have the chance make sure you check this place out!

The ambiance is beautiful,we preffered to sit outside on the non smoking section,with the street view. The service was nice and the waitress did recommend some food options when I asked. We ordered 3 dishes: the grilled lamb,seared scallops and salmon with pasta. Everything was great but the grilled lamb with 6 spice potatoes and garlic spinach stole the show. It was seasoned so well and cooked to perfection(medium rare),the gastrique also added a special touch with sweet and vinegar flavor to balance the dish. This was my first time in ATL for only 3 days and I made it to Divan twice for the lamb. I also enjoyed the seared scallops with the cauliflower salad. I thought the salmon pasta dish was good but not as flavorful as the rest of the ordered dishes. Divan left a good impression on me and I will always make a visit whenever I'm in the A.

Love all the food. The service has gotten better. And now that they are in a new location the ambiance is even more a vibe. Get the duck, get the lamb shank, get the goat cheese, get the lamb chops, and the scallops. Oh my gosh best restaurant in Atlanta doesn't miss...

Okay so literally stumbled on this place leaving The High Museum!!! And can I just say this place got everything right !!! The ambiance was perfect! Staff was amazing - literally from the greeter at check-in to our host Zendaya's twin Shania and to top it off the GM Anthony!!! Everyone was very knowledgeable about all the products and recommendations were A1!!! We started off with an appetizer: Crab Risotto Croquettes ... I give those a 3.5/5. But stay with me... Anthony and Zendaya gave us recommendations for food. My friend ordered the Lobster Ravioli with scallops 10/10!!! Sooo good she broke out into a dance !!! I ordered the Blackened Verlasso Salmon 10/10!!! Seasoned just right not too soupy but just right amount of noodle / sauce / meat portion !!! Seasoned let me let you know I could've licked the bowl if I was at home but I have home training. But wait it gets better - the drinks were amazing !!! Anthony made us some pretty blue drink just because it was Friday and we were celebrating just that lol . It was 10/10 - pretty and tasted amazing . My friend ordered the martini and I had the Parisian sangria which was 10/10! So basically like this is on my map of places I'll most definitely keep coming back to when in Midtown. Because what - amazing food, amazing service and amazing vibes !!! So glad we stumbled on this location *excuse any typos

This place is across the street from the Atlanta symphony hall. Outside is very rustic and inviting, multi levels. Reservations are a must. We sat at the bar on the second level. Our bartender was Angie. She looked like a young Sheila E and made the drinks with love. She made me a purple rain and espresso martinis that were top level. The food was excellent, we will be back.

I finally visited the new Divan location in town. I love the different spaces...from the hidden bar downstairs to the lounge area on the 3rd floor and if course they have the rooftop. Beautiful! We feasted on the ceviche (so good), the lamb shank (falling off the bone), and the sea scallops (perfectly cooked). All delicious!!!! Our waiter was very nice and helped with our choices. Parking: there is a parking garage nearby but I opted to valet. I think it was $10. Overall, I definitely will be back to try the other items.

My rating is solely for Divan's customer service and the drink I ordered. My friends and I dropped by on a Friday night. Valet parking was $10, which we had to do because parking was limited on the streets. We didn't make a reservation, and yet we were seated promptly inside one of the hookah rooms. Our server was spectacular; very accommodating and nice! Per his recommendation, I got the Dragon Fruit Cocktail ($16). It tasted like pure sugar with hints of dragon fruit. Unless you like your drinks very, VERY sweet, I would not recommend this cocktail to anyone. A friend ordered the Lychee version and even that was so sweet for her that she couldn't drink it.

I've been to Divan twice. The first time was a 10 out of 10 experience. We went late so it took a while to be seated and we grabbed drinks at the bar. Once we were seated, the service was quick and everything we had was amazing from the salad, Duck Confit appetizer to the lamb chops. We recently went back to celebrate a birthday and had a slightly different experience. Our reservation was at 5pm, however, the kitchen was super slow and our food didn't arrive until around 6:15pm. Everyone enjoyed their meal, while I on the other hand, was hangry. I ordered the salmon pasta dish, but it arrived with some ol baby piece of salmon. It took about another 15 mins for our server to walk by so I could mention it. She agreed the filet was smaller than usual and the kitchen prepared another one. That kinda threw off my experience but not too much because the pasta was delish. Overall, I'll keep patronizing this spot because it's that good! Pros: Flavorful dishes - duck confit and lamb chops are standouts, drinks, atmosphere, date night vibe. Cons: parking, health score (yikes for the price point but Im going to do my best to overlook it cause the food.)

The Valet , the security and the bartend all asked if I was staying before I could even get out of my car, walk up the steps and before I was even handed a menu. I was specifically coming for a dish and due to the lack of customer service I simply walked out. Hopefully they focus on the experience as much as they do take-out orders. Highly Disappointed.

So, from the moment we walked in with no reservation. We decided to attend the bar, and babe, when I tell you, Shaina and Shalisa took the most genuine care of us! I'm so grateful for them and the manager Andrew who sat us down to get a hookah without a wait after our meal at the bar. Love you guys, see you soon love

All around great experience. Valet offered which is a plus due to a downtown location and the parking deck being a few feet away. Beautiful aged building, or castle as they call it, with nice external and internal decor. Instantly greeted and taken upstairs to our table. Our host Taj was wonderful and in training so doing a great job. The lady that assisted I hate I did not get her name was also great. Excellent service and also greeted by the manager, Andrew. Food was delicious and plated beautifully along with good wine selection. A must try for a romantic dinner or after work social.

Ambiance was so cute especially for a date or girls night out. Valet is extremely pleasant and only $10. Reservations are advised due to limited seating. I had a whole room and it was private. Servers are so nice and attentive. I had the lamb chops and fried crab risotto. Hookah was good too. I literally have no complaints and would love to return

I had seen this building for literally decades (on school field trips to Symphony Hall, in college, etc.). I ate here once in its former incarnation, probably 5 years ago. I was happy to see that it was being reinvented as a Persian restaurant recently. A year or so ago, I had to choose between this and Rumi's Kitchen, and went with Rumi's (mostly for convenience). So it was high time I tried Divan. I made reservations and we arrived around 5:30 p.m. on a Sunday. They have valet parking which is not complimentary - it costs $10 plus whatever you opt to tip. I generally dislike valet parking, but there were not a lot of other options (in the nearby neighborhoods, parking ends at 6:00 p.m. for non-residents). We used the valet. We were shown to our table on the 2nd floor (I don't think they have tables on the ground floor. The space was nice. However, they devoted a huge table next to us to some younger women who were apparently there for someone's birthday. They had hired a videographer to document their night out (I kid you not). They went upstairs (to the hookah lounge?) for a while but descended back down and got video / photos of the event. It was odd. Our server was good. He checked in regularly but not intrusively. They have a full bar and a decent wine list. We both got koobideh kabobs. However, I thought the portion size was small here. In most Persian restaurants, I've gotten 2 kabobs for this dish. Here I got one. And the price seemed high ($28). As a comparison, I got about 3x to 4x the amount of kabob for 3/4 of the price a couple of weeks later at a fine dining Persian place in Phoenix. I realize that is not completely apples-to-apples, but I think it is worth mentioning. Overall, I wasn't unhappy that we'd had dinner here, but I probably won't return. The overall vibe and price / experience ratio was not for me.

Im so disappointed. I used to love this place but it's so different now. Not sure if management changed but the vibe is different. Music, ambience, and food has downgraded. Even down to the naan. It used to be my favorite thing here but very basic now and it came out rock hard. Idk what's going on. Service took forever. I usually don't even leave reviews but goodness. Topper... my bf had to make his drink and pour it in the glass and hair in food.

The lamb is so good. Delicious. Something out of Alladin, it is a great great place for Hookah too. -sara moonves. Your old CO worker, Alie. Xo

I came here to celebrate my birthday and I am highly satisfied with my decision. The atmosphere was giving me upscale eclectic vibes. We couldn't get seated until the entire party arrived, so the wait wasn't bad. The drinks were delicious! Kudos to the bartender. I tried their seasonal drinks, and OMG... I had to slow down because I had a long night ahead of me. The food was delicious and well seasoned. We didn't really like the Crab risotto croquettes. It wasn't giving what it was supposed to, so that's a non repeat dish for me. Our waitress was patient with us and answered all our questions. When she realized it was my bday, she brought out a glass of champagne for the table. That took my experience to the next level. I'll definitely return to try another dish

I went here with a group for one of my friend's birthday, and the ambience was perfect for the occasion. She set a reservation for the night so when we walked in the table was already set up. Our waitress was very friendly and timely with our drinks, appetizers, and when we were ready to order. I must say the drinks were great because I ended up ordering two strawberry margaritas. The food was also phenomenal. I started with an appetizer of muscles and ended up getting the chicken kebab plate as my entree. They accommodated us since we had a birthday cake and brought it out with candles and sparklers. They also gave us extra plates for the cake and allowed us to take pictures and continue conversation without us feeling rushed at the end of the meal. I definitely suggest choosing Divan for a special occasion, or just to treat yourself on a night out.

What a wonderful dinner choice for the evening! After a date to a local concert, we wanted an intimate dinner date and lucky us, Divan was just minutes away from the concert venue. We heard that it could be busy during dinner time so reservations made weeks in advance were at the top of the list as waiting for a table in the A can be such a buzzkill when you're hungry. Upon arrival to the castle, there is mandatory valet for a $10 charge (cash or digital payment accepted) which was super handy, because who wants to try and find street parking while dressed up for dinner? Not us. Totally worth the valet charge. When we entered, wow, what a first impression. It was dimly lit and so romantic! We checked in for our reservation and were quickly taken up the staircase that centered the foyer and connected it to the open 2nd floor. And what a gorgeous 2nd floor it was! The decor was so luxurious, I could tell that there was some love put into the design plan. I was surprised that there were less than 4 tables seated where we were, but believe that there were more guests upstairs in the hookah lounge. Not a complaint at all, because it was very quiet and felt like it was just us. We reviewed the menu and the specials, struggling to figure out what we'd enjoy because everything sounded better than the next. We started with two orders of the soup of the day which I paired with a glass of Shiraz - perfect way to begin our meal. For our entrees, I opted for the Bakhtiyari Kabob which was accompanied by a large portion of saffron basmati rice and a slaw - delicious! My date went with two entrees (men and their appetites!) including the Lamb Shank and the pan roasted Grouper. He devoureddd them both! The Lamb was falling off of the bone and the Grouper was fresh and perfectly cooked. I was so tempted to order dessert but the portions provided were so big, I didn't think I could hold anything else in lol. I'll have to be sure to save room for my next visit. :)

This may have been the best food I've had so far during my visit in ATL. Everything was super fresh and flavorful. I'm not familiar with Persian food so Im not sure if this was authentic but it was delicious. I would certainly come back when visiting again. The ambiance is beautiful and seemingly somewhat of a historic location. Drinks were unique and tasty. Service was quick.

Impromptu date in Atlanta near the light show at the Botanical Garden and found this hidden gem. To start, there is valet parking. I think the cost was $10. Service was amazing inside the restaurant. My date and I dined upstairs. I ordered the chicken and beef kabob and my date had the lamb chops. Honestly the lamb chops carried the whole menu. I would definitely recommend as they were cooked to perfection and had this glaze that melts on your tongue. My kabob was very well seasoned and packed with flavor in the rice as well. I'd definitely visit again.

My girlfriend took me out on a surprise date. Never heard of this place. However, very thoroughly impressed. The bottom floor has a small bar, dinner on the 2nd with a bar, and hookah areas on 3rd n 4th with a patio. The valet option is great too so you don't have to walk from the garage. It was only $10. The setting is real classy and chill. Our server, Maya was real knowledgeable and some great recommendations. We ordered spice potatoes for the app, fire. For the entree she ordered the chicken kabob and I ordered the salmon pasta. It was really flavorful with onions, oyster mushrooms, tomatoes. The sauce was real light and tasty. I'd come back and def recommend ya'll to try too.

Great experience, good and drinks. Only issue is the valet, it is horrible!! The lack attention, speed and service

Writing this review per Dr. David's request. Last night, I chose to stop in towards the end of my solo date and I was sat pretty promptly by my waiter, Dr. David. At first interaction, he seemed friendly but a bit rushed ( it's 8:30 on a Friday night so that wasn't surprising). After asking him for sparkling water and a mint hookah he walked off quickly before I could even give him my cocktail order; it was fine though, I could wait. Really, the only reason I mention it is because he would abruptly walk away after each interaction to follow. Whether it be taking my order or dropping something at the table; he'd continuously just walk off without giving me a second to ask for a napkin or anything else I may have needed. He would go straight to the 2 top across from me, seeming a lot less rushed, too. That's when it hit me - oh, he doesn't think a solo diner is worth his efforts, got it. Shortly after, the same table across from me was mistakenly given the hookah I ordered. After taking the hookah back, they waited about 10 minutes before serving me back that very same hookah. After pulling it a couple of times, I could tell that the coals were old and had to order new ones. For my entree, I ordered the pickled carrots, goat cheese, falafel, and potatoes. The food all arrived at once, completely crowding the table and once again, the doctor was off to see his other patients before I could even utter a "thank you". The food was delicious, no complaints on that, and after managing to finally get his attention I asked for my leftovers to be bagged and the check. He looked at me as if my request was unheard of. He repeated it even, "so you want me to bag this up for you?" Meanwhile the table literally has no space to bag my left overs even if I'd preferred to. He reluctantly grabbed my plates and bagged them up in the back. He returned with my bag and a check (aka huge tablet stuck abruptly in my face). After paying via card, I tipped him in cash, generously, as I typically do (I'm not a monster). After this, his face lit up with gratitude, and he immediately requested that I write him a review. I now had earned the privilege of knowing his name. David, Dr. David to be exact. I smiled politely at the introduction and he says "no, really, I'm a doctor!" without missing a beat now his iPhone is in my face showing me his instagram to prove he's the man he claims to be, and he's scrolling away, too. Lots of selfies. In a plea to get his feed out of my face I promised him I'd write a review. I'm a woman of my word. After this, he was feeling generous enough to offer me a complimentary ice cream or sorbet- I chose the sorbet, yet, what he delivered shortly after was a glass of champagne. Whatever, I wasn't going to complain about something that was complimentary in the first place. Despite his "effort of appreciation", I left Divan with a sour taste in my mouth due to the doctor's service. Honestly, I was going to keep this experience to myself, but it's the next day and I just opened my bag to realize he had packaged all my food in one container. And he didn't bother to pack my tzatziki sauce. Probably won't be back.

Was here for a bday dinner and Andrew definitely took care of us!!! This place is one of my favorites and it's very chic and beautiful! They took great care of us. The blackened salmon pasta is an absolute must have!!! The lamb chops are also a winner!!

The service was great, food delicious and ambiance beyond description. We will definitely return and recommend Divan to friends and family. Raven and Andrew, we Thank you for a lovely Sunday Brunch

Niyah is a great waitress. We took all her suggestions for food and had one of the best meals ever. She is smart and energetic and we had great service. Thanks

I made reservations for Divan for Friday night and was excited about trying them out. I believe I had them before at their previous location. They have valet parking which was convenient. We had to take about ten minutes before we were seated. They have two levels and sat upstairs. Surprisingly the restaurant want packed for a Friday night. We ordered wine and cocktails. Both were good. We had an appetizer and I order the lamb for my main. It was really good! Our service was decent and the ambiance was nice. I would come back to try some other options in the future.

Divan's Resturant & Bar located in Midtown Atlanta. This Mediterranean restaurant/bar has fantastic service. Divan's has an upstairs rooftop with scenic view's of the beautiful Midtown/Downtown. If you're seated on the rooftop, Divan's serves flavored Hookah, drinks & food with a friendly functional staff. For my drink, I ordered an Old Fashioned, so yummy and for my starter, I had Divan's delicious Traditional Hummus, flavored to perfection. Entree, I ordered Koobideh Kabob and for desserts, the Persian Doughnuts with Raspberry Cheesecake. Overall, I give Divan's a ten out of ten. Divan's has a safe secure location with security upon entrance. Kudos to Jas, Divan's amazing waitress she provided excellent service. Perfect for date night!

I love the ambiance here, especially the rooftop! The food and service here are also fantastic. The hookah is very smooth as well. Highly recommend the baklava desserts. It's delicious.
