our friends who go there took us last night for the first time. The decor and ambience is lovely and very clean. The food was hot, fresh and delicious from the appetizer to the dessert. The service was so outstanding , everyone from the owners to the wait staff aims to please. we cannot wait to dine there again.

Very good service and amazing yummy food. Our server was Raim very helpful and kind. The lighting and environment is nice as well!

Let's start with the food was great, especially the steak kebabs. The koobideh was a bit dry but didn't deter us from finishing all of it. The service was great, just a tad bit slow as it was super busy when we went. The dessert was great, I think I'm being haunted by rose water infused desserts as I keep accidentally ordering it when it isn't my favorite. Very date night esque, candle lit dinner and dim lighting. For the lovers and Persian food admirers, this is for you.

Divan has the best Persian food ever!! The service was excellent and they were to accommodate a party of 15 people so easily thank you for your amazing service and Raim our server was great!!

We went there for a 70th birthday celebration and the food was amazing. I had the lamb chops which were delicious! The rice which comes with every meal had a saffron crust on top which was very good! Would highly recommend this restaurant. It was worth the trip from SLC. The service was excellent and the ambiance was beautiful. Our new go to restaurant!

I believe this was my first time trying Persian food. My friends and I didn't know what to order so we went with what our server recommended: Salade Alamut- Arugula salad with beets, goat cheese, and raspberry vinaigrette. It's a nice refreshing salad to start the meal with, but at the same time, not very memorable. Grilled Octopus - Grilled octopus drizzled with olive oil and vinaigrette. The octopus was grilled perfectly and was very tender. Mirza Ghasemi - Eggplant and egg dip with Persian bread. It was a nice little light appetizer. Kabob Torsch - Beef tenderloin kabobs marinated in pomegranate juice. This dish was a little too sweet and the beef was a little too overcooked and dry for me. Mahi Shekampoor - A whole trout stuffed with herb greens and nuts, on sauteed spinach. I think this is my favorite of the night. The fish was cooked perfectly with the herb greens and spinach. I would get this dish again. Mahechay - Braised bone-in lamb in broth. This was my second favorite dish of the night. The lamb and broth was so flavorful with the spices. I would also order this again. Persian Saffron Rice Pudding - I didn't enjoy this. It tasted a little too floral to me. I should have picked a different dessert, but everything else seemed non-Persian. Each entrée came with a plate of rice. Service was great. Our server was very attentive and patient in explaining items on the menu. The owner came over to check on us. The restaurant has a nice cozy decor. It seems kind of upscale, but you don't need to be dressy to be here.

Location is very hidden. Ambiance excellent and in fact one of a kind. Food is amazingly marinated. Flavorful. Just excellent. Desserts are sub par. Tea is from tea bag's. So the end could feel meh. But main entree definitely is worth returning for

I had absolutely the most divine experience at Divan! This place has been on my list to try for years, since I love Persian cuisine and have heard many wonderful things. I was thoroughly delighted to discover that my expectations were indeed met and even exceeded by both the food and staff. Divan is a family-run business that takes great pride in their authenticity and quality, both of which are to the highest level. I was able to meet the father and daughter and was touched by their welcome nature and kindness. My friend and I also felt meticulously cared for by all the staff, as many of them would often stop by and check in on us or assist us in whatever we needed. Our waiter especially was so friendly and helpful in his guidance through their extensive menu and ensured that we received the best they had to offer. Our meal was well-rounded with a mix of Mediterranean and Persian selections at his recommendation and I am grateful that we got to comprehensively try a wide variety that did not disappoint. We started off with the beautiful hibiscus rose sour mocktail that not only looked great, but tasted great too. The beverage menu at Divan is so long and unique that I am tempted to return several times in order to try each and every one of their drinks. They also served their complimentary barbari bread that was deceivingly addictive -- so addicting to the point where I packed a few pieces as leftovers and my mouth watered at the smell of the bread every time I would reheat some to eat. In regard to the courses, my appetizer highlight would definitely be the grilled octopus. I've never had more tender tentacles before and the pomegranate molasses provided the right amount of acidity and sweetness to complement the dish. Moving onto the entrees, the lamb chops were my favorite as they were so incredibly juicy and paired well with the sides of sumac and zhoug. Each bite tasted rich and decadent, as if eating the meat was a luxury. Divan's commitment to small details can be seen with the side of tahdig that comes with almost every entree also. The effort to crisp the rice in order to provide their guest with an elevated experience is truly amazing. The addas polo was especially delicious with the addition of lentils, raisins, and sautéed onions that made it possible to just eat the rice and be satisfied. However, the country-style roasted chicken that came with it was so moist and flavorful that I was a huge fan, even as someone that doesn't usually love chicken. After being completely stuffed, my friend and I ended the decadent meal with an even more decadent dessert of chocolate cake and a chai to wash it all down. I personally think it's so special that Divan provides the option to sweeten your tea with rock sugar, creating another unique Persian touch. Overall, this experience felt like a dream, especially with the lovely ambiance of watching the sunset right next to our table and then the dimmed romantic lights when it got dark outside. This was a beautiful meal in a beautiful restaurant, and I'm looking forward to my next rendezvous at this place that stole my heart.

so incredibly yummy! we got the octopus, ceviche, and shish kabob. the restaurant is really cute, the tables are a bit close together, but it wasn't too busy at the time i went. the fillet mignon in the shish kabob was so tender and flavorful, and the octopus was perfectly cooked. the ceviche is good, but would skip it. our server, raim was so sweet and knowledgeable. he explained the menu extensively and gave us a lot of us recommendations. at the end of meal, he surprised us with tea which was a great way to close our meal. we talked a lot with raim and enjoyed his company a lot. im definitely going to come back with more people and ask for raim!!

The food was absolute divine!! House bread was soooo delicious; we had 2 baskets. Smoked eggplant had its own unique taste was nothing like Baba ghanoush. We LOVE the saffron basmati rice with the crispy layer on top. Yummo!!!!! Amazing service! Although the restaurant is kids friendly, it doesn't offer a kids menu. They were flexible and made butter noodles for our kid. Our 4 yr old likes steak and we ordered Barg for him. Try the lamb shank! It's super tender and falls off the bone. Beautiful ambiance. Loud but we don't mind the noise.
