“Went on Thursday to meet a friend for a late lunch, I’ve been by the place but never inside. Needless to say I ordered a pizza and its hands down the best pizza i have had as long as I can remember! As we walked out we chatted about this place and now have a great spot to meet for food laughs and to talk about our work. He mentioned he saw a guy a couple of tables down get what looked like an awesome burger so i stopped by today and ordered it and it was just that, awesome!“

“So I've been ordering take out from forgartys for years. Now, back then the food was very bland and the to go orders were constantly getting messed up. I'm talking every single time I picked up there was something missing or completely wrong. I've finally edited my review to match with current times and I must say after 6 years from my last review things have drastically changed. As new cooks and new staff have filtered through things have taken a turn for the better. The food is actually pretty tasteful and "knock on wood" but the staff have been better at double checking what should be in the take-out bags.“

“So thankful to have this gem in South Berwick. Our go-to spot when we want a night out. The food is delicious and the staff is the best. Try the bolognese if it’s on the menu, and never forget the spaghetti with meatballs. Statue of David is a dream drink!“

Parking: It can get busy there but it is a big enough parking lot.“

“My wife and I went to Diverge for dinner and little bit ago. I had been looking for something out of our regular and I frequently check the reviews ahead of time. I had seen multiple posts about Diverge, so I pulled up their info, and I have to say, I also loved how the owner replied to reviews (especially the negatives). So, we decided to give it a go. I called ahead to see if reservations were required. They aren't, but they took my info, since I was already on the phone. When we arrived, it was just a short wait for the type of table we wanted (high-top vs low). It seemed pretty quiet for a Friday night. We ordered an appetizer of Pork Belly which was amazing and so tender. highly recommend. My wife got the Cod and I went with the NY strip, medium rare. My wife doesn't eat a lot at once, and after the app, she couldn't eat much of the Cod, but she loved it and was happy to finish it later at home. My steak was cooked to a perfect medium-rare and the scalloped potatoes were to die for! My wife doesn't generally enjoy potatoes, but she had a couple of bites of these. We made sure to let them know, too. The asparagus was also perfectly seasoned. I will admit, I'm a bit of a steak snob, and generally prefer my own home-cooked version. This one was well flavored and tender. It did come out a bit cooler than I'd like (might have waited a few for the piping hot potato), but when I mentioned it, they were more than accommodating. Also, there was a party of 12 whose order went in, and came out, just ahead of ours, so I'm quite certain that factored into the timing. It wasn't a big deal, and they handled it with grace. Against our norm, we decided to try the Chocolate cake with ganache and fresh strawberries for dessert. Again, my wife only had a few bites, and I'm diabetic so maybe it was silly of us to order, but it was also very tasty and quite rich. Even though we were sharing it, we brought about ½ of the cake home to finish later as well. Diverge is tucked away, behind Lexie's (one of our kids' favorite burger spots), enough so that you might not know it's there. We recommend giving Diverge a try and we'll be back! A side note dor those who like to plan ahead: like other businesses moving along the trend, their prices are cash prices and do have a small fee for cards to cover processing fees. It is plainly written on the menu, and we knew ahead of time, so there was no surprise. I'd say 4.5+ out of 5. Well done, Diverge!“

“Wings and things, but AMAZING pizza too! New to town, and wasn’t sure what to expect, it was fabulous. Ordered the Mexican and a Pepperoni/Banana Peppers. Next time will try the wings! Quick and easy ordering and pickup.“
