The Divan Restaurant in Chesterfield

Fantastic restaurant, amazing food, great ambience, wonderful hospitality, spotlessly clean. A great night out that you must try. Prices are good too. Will definitely be going again

Had three courses here with some friends, food was gorgeous, fair price and very filling. The flavours of the food and quality were unreal, some of the nicest I've every had. The young girl who served us was lovely, attentive, fast and professional. Well definitively be back :)

Its says a lot about our society when good service really stands out, the staff are lovely. So friendly, helpful and polite, nothing is too much trouble. The food is delicious, rich , flavourful and impeccably presented. Would highly recommend and cant wait to go again

Excellent food and service , would highly recommend . Had a lovely valentines dinner with my wife. On arrival my wife was presented with a red rose, which was a lovely touch. The staff were so polite and welcoming too.

This restaurant is decorated beautifully, ans the food is such so good. There were 4 of us and we ordered a set menu for 4‌, the portions were greata and the meat platter was so delicious. One of the best turkish places we have been to. I also told the manger I was trying to learn turkish and she was very patient with me and tried to speak to me in turkish, and also taught me a few new words. Hopefully next time I go back I will be able to have a full conversation in Turkish. Beautiful people, beautiful culture and amazing food, Ayse tesekkurler canim

Most recent food from here was takeaway, I have had several orders for collection as well as eating at the location with family or friends. The food is always amazing, consistently if the same taste and quality. Have tried several items off the menu but faves have to be the chicken iskender and the rice pudding style desert. My two children also enjoy eating here which is amazing for our family as my youngest is autistic so eating out together can be a challenge. The staff are so lovely, my youngest is always treated with kindness and patience and the staff remember my children when we go back and engage with them. Truly can not recommend this place enough.

As always, fabulous food last night at The Divan. Such a lovely, welcoming, family run restaurant- highly recommended.

Portions a lot smaller than previous times. Sautéed potatoes mixed in with shish kebabs to bulk it out. Previously served separately. Spoke to waitress who just shrugged her shoulders Place was very cold no atmosphere

Absolutely beautiful food and plenty of it. We had the set meal for 2 and it was the best food we’ve ever eaten! The service is lovely and the staff were so friendly. We cannot wait to visit again and will be recommending this restaurant to everyone.

Passing through Chesterfield, we decided to eat at this restaurant which had perfect reviews. We couldn't have made a better choice! The restaurant has a nice ambience, is well decorated and good Turkish music was being played. The food was absolutely delicious. The menu is rich with great choices. I had a Chicken iskender with ayran (freshly made). Finally, the staff was amazing, very implicated and made sure we had a lovely night. I definitely recommend this restaurant if you want to taste Turkish cuisine or if you're already a fan!
