I’m leaving this review while eating dessert (seriously, get the bread pudding). This place is a 10/10. Every single thing, from the drinks to the dessert is absolute perfection. Best food in all of Chicago-land, hands down.
Reasonable prices for food and drinks; good cocktails
My husband and I dined at this restaurant last month for the first time and loved it so I suggested it for a cousin’s dinner last night. Divino is a family restaurant. Chef Gabriel’s food is creative and delicious. His brother-in-law Jose, I believe, is the one behind the great cocktail list and making housemade aperitifs.

Di’Vino Restaurant & Bar offers an upscale‑local Italian and Mediterranean experience in a modern, dimly lit setting on Harlem Avenue in Forest Park. The décor has changed considerably, with high ceilings, classy chandeliers, rich trimmings, and a relaxed vibe that feels both slick and welcoming. Guests are greeted by professional, attentive gentlemen who provide efficient service without hovering or rushing. Warm bread balls with garlic butter arrive early, forecasting a great meal.
The menu emphasizes freshness. The crispy calamari is described as delicate, perfectly seasoned, and the freshest prepared available. An arugula salad arrives with garden vegetables, a complex dressing, and cheese that enhances the taste. For entrees, the Chicken Al Limone is moist, thoughtfully spiced, and served with asparagus and long skinny vegetables. The Rigatoni Alla Buttera is al dente, with a sauce that balances heat and flavor, showcasing fresh meat and sauce. A shrimp scampi with garlic, cauliflower puree, tomatoes, shrimp, scallions and shellfish fumet provides a rich seafood option. An eight‑ounce filet mignon appears with potatoes, vegetables and demi glace for a hearty main.
Desserts include a split order of gelato, half chocolate and half goat cheese, offering a subtle, unique texture, as well as basil panna cotta with limoncello and yuzu. The house salad with organic baby mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, onion and house vinaigrette adds a crisp finish. Music adds to the atmosphere, and the high ceilings and classy chandeliers make an immediate impression on the culinary crowd. Open from 4 to 10 Monday through Friday and 11 to 11 on weekends, Di’Vino puts a smile on the face of anyone seeking superb food, relaxing atmosphere and great service.
