DV8 Kitchen - East End

I had been wanting to visit DV8 for quite some time now, not only for my love of trying out new places, but because of the background of this place. Let me first say, I visited the Broadway location on 1/19/25 and cannot wait to come back. The environment was great including the decor and the staff. Everyone was friendly and helpful. I had the breakfast tacos and took home the chicken salad and it was amazing. I couldn't leave without snagging a couple cups, hoodie, and a sticker. Having a passion for those in recovery (I have 12.5 years myself) I couldn't wait to get myself in this place and now I can't wait to come back!!

Great music, wonderful service, I really loved the decor and the candle mountain to recovery.

I asked for a grilled cheese which is normally $9.00- I was getting it for my daughter and wanted it without all the add ons. So just bread and cheese for $9.00? I mean that’s more expensive than at an actual restaurant.

TL:DR Yes, they cater, and I'd highly recommend them.
Now, onto the full review.
We are so excited to share our experience with DV8 Kitchen, who catered our wedding! We first discovered them at a local bridal show, and I can honestly say they completely turned our wedding catering plans around. Initially, we were feeling stressed because every catering option we had come across was either way out of our budget or just didn’t have the flavor or creativity we were looking for. So many options were either bland or overpriced, and we were starting to feel like we'd never find the right fit.

That was, of course, until we tasted Dv8's food. From the first bite, we knew we had found the perfect caterer. The flavors were incredible, the dishes were creative, and everything was prepared with such care. We were immediately sold—not just on the food, but on the entire experience.

From start to finish, the team was nothing short of professional and incredibly friendly. They worked with us on the menu, helped us select dishes that would appeal to a wide variety of guests, and were always responsive to any questions or changes we had throughout the planning process. Their communication was clear and timely, which made the entire planning process so much less stressful.

On the big day, the staff arrived in a timely fashion and set everything up efficiently. The presentation was beautiful, and we could tell they really took pride in making sure everything was perfect. The food was not only delicious but beautifully displayed, and our guests couldn't stop raving about it. We had a wide variety of food (i highly suggest the chicken orange marmalade on a biscuit) , and each dish was a hit. It's been 2 weeks, and guests are still raving about how great the food was!

One of the best parts? Their pricing was extremely reasonable, especially for the quality and service they provided. We never once felt like we were paying more than we should, and it felt like we were getting a top-tier experience without the sky-high costs other caterers were charging.

Since we first found them, we've been so in love with Dv8 that we’ve made it a tradition to have a weekly date day at their establishment. It's the perfect way to relive the amazing food and vibes that made our wedding day so memorable. We can’t recommend them enough—if you’re looking for delicious, high-quality food, professional service, and a team that truly cares about making your event special, look no further than DV8 Kitchen. You won’t regret it! And a very special shout out to Michael for being the real MVP during the whole process.

Went for the first time today and loved it! We got the apple cinnamon roll, the basil pesto chicken sandwich with (some of the best) tots, and a monte cristo. Everything was absolutely delicious and the staff were great. We will be back soon!

This is an inspiring, supportive, delicious, friendly and stylish restaurant. We liked the idea of supporting those in recovery as it’s a real need and a serious matter. I understand.

Everyone we interacted with was on point, friendly and exceptional. We ordered a ton of food and enjoyed every single morsel. The rest we got to go for later!

Stephanie took our order with a smile and made sure everything was just perfect.

Seth suggested the cinnamon roll since it was my first time! We got cinnamon roll bread pudding which was dense and fantastic! We also got perfect over medium eggs, seasoned tater tots, biscuit and gravy, bacon, sausage, eggs Benedict, three kinds of homemade jam, extra seasoning and a major breath of fresh air! Everything was perfect!

We don’t know when we will pass through Lexington again but when we do, we will definitely stop here!

Life can be very good with a little support.

No or very few veggie options.

Best coffee I've had since arriving last week. Biscuits and gravy awesome, French bread sticks very good. Plenty of seating, order at counter and they bring it over. Love the recovery attitude from ownership. Hope they are helping. So before you leave, light a candle and offer your hope dor recovery.
