The food was incredibly good - high quality ingredients and perfect portion sizes. My wife and I both commented that the cocktails were some of the best we've ever had. You definitely have to check this place out.

Wanted a nice experience for our anniversary. Tired of feeling ripped off by downtown restaurants post COVID we only wanted cocktails and light bites. We used to go to bar divani a lot ten years ago. Found posted happy hour there 4-6, better drink prices and affordable light bites. The last couple times we've tried to have a cocktail there the hostess looked at me like I had two heads. Too busy to accommodate us for cocktails. Once seated, our server informed us they haven't had a happy hour in five years. Okay, had a couple 18 dollar martinis and an appetizer and left. Like the space but will not return. They apparently are too busy to want our business. A shame. There are plenty of other better choices.

We had a small dinner reception in the Elevated Room at Divani on our wedding day in September, and were absolutely blown away! The food, the service, the atmosphere - everything was 5 star. Every single person we encountered was so kind and accommodating. Wendy was also an absolute DREAM to work with. I went back and forth with Wendy for about a year while planning our wedding. Celebrating here was the perfect ending to a perfect day, and we cannot thank you all enough!

This was our second time at Divani and they did not disappoint. As soon as you walk through the doors it’s like a warm hug. The energy is incredible. Quite the positive vibe. Molly the owner was so sweet and found us a seat at the bar. We were greeted again by Marcus who’s one of the best bartenders ever. He is so knowledgeable of all their liquors and his creativity is WOW; he has mad skills. We had the opportunity to say hi to Morgan who served us the last time we dined here. She is sweet, kind and it felt like reconnecting with an old friend. The drinks were outstanding and the food was out of this world. Honestly one of the best experiences. Marcus and Morgan were generous with their time and took a moment to snap a lovely picture with my husband & myself. We will return the next trip we have to Grand Rapids!

What a charming experience! Morgan's service, hospitality, and knowledge combined with the sheer personality and vibe that is Divani was amazing. Marcus made us two custom drinks that were some of the best cocktails I've ever had. I'm a whisky snob and their old fashioned with Woodford, but with smoked rosemary and peach added by Morgan and Marcus's suggestions was honestly one of my favorite whisky cocktails I've ever had. The filet and Brussels sprouts were perfect, but I'll be dreaming of that demi glace for sometime! The anniversary crème brûlée, which rotates flavors, was a great way to cap the night off. A great experience and I can't wait to come back again.

Dined here last night for Valentines Day; Morgan was incredible! They did an excellent job of guiding us through the menu and was super attentive and welcoming. The food was delicious and the cocktails were amazing, the atmosphere was very intimate. Fitting of a special night for both my partner and I. We will be back!

First time experience. Great romantic and intimate venue. The owner is clearly passionate about delivering a great experience to customers and has created an environment for her team to thrive.

This is my wife's and I favorite restaurant. Always something good on the menu. But if you don't see something you like ask for the chefs special. Bartender Marcus is amazing and has a gift for making creative drinks. Order the "Trust me you'll love it".

We hadn't been there in a year and the gentleman who greeted us at the front door remembered us, so that was pretty cool. The bartenders drinks were fantastic, and our waitress was above the top. Love the atmosphere, and the people and the food.

The food is great and the staff is friendly and they make amazing cocktails. Get yourself some bone marrow and a nice stiff cocktail and you will thank me! Also I love the decor and vibe. Did I mention the bartenders are awesome yet?

On a busy Saturday night, this was the only place that had a last minute spot for us, and boy, were we happy they did! We were even quite a bit late because we couldn't find parking, and when I called, they assured me that they would hold the spot for us no problem. We really appreciated that.My partner and I had never been, and the mushroom risotto and drinks were absolutely fabulous!!! Atmosphere is quiet and dimly lit, perfect for a little date night. Molly - the owner - was very attentive to us and talked to us like friends. We had great conversation. Can't wait to come back!
