    This place popped up on my Instagram reels so decided to give it a shot. There is no free parking here anymore. Since it was a weekday or wasn't very busy until lunch time. I only ordered a latte and it was great. The food menu looked good but maybe next time. The staff was very welcoming and friendly. The furniture inside was super cute and chic making it also great spot for a girls brunch.

    The owners are welcoming and friendly. The coffee a s pastries are delicious and the decor is beautiful. I'm so glad I stumbled across Divo Diva while in Hillcrest

    Peach matcha
    Veronica H.

    Found this place during a walk around the area. I initially wanted to try two other matchas but they were out of some ingredients. The cashier suggested the peach matcha, it was okay not great but not bad. The flavors for both the matcha and peach could be stronger, it was refreshing though. Service was good and everyone was really attentive. The place was nicely decorated for the holidays. While we waited for our drink I was able to see what other people ordered to dine in and everything that came out looked great.

    Avocado Toast Classico Breakfast with fried egg
    Suzie D.

    This is a cute little European restaurant. It is adorable and the coffee is very high quality. The avocado toast was toasted perfectly with crunch on the outside and soft on the inside with a perfect amount of avocado. The service is also great. It is pay at the front, so no biggie, just maybe better for a small intimate couple or a few friends. Would definitely come back.

    This is a review for the music and dinner show that takes place regularly at Divo Diva. I learned about Divo Diva because I frequent a business across the street. One evening, I heard opera music that I had thought was a recording, but then I heard people applauding. I was so surprised to find that it was live! After that, I looked up online and learned about the music and dinner show. I made a reservation to attend with two friends on a Friday night. When making the reservation, we learned that it was a set dinner menu with an appetizer, a drink ,and dinner along with the show. The price was around $100 per person (which included the show and gratuity), so I wasn't expecting anything too fancy. The host answered my request to reserve very quickly. She was very gracious and checked to see if there were any vegetarians or non-drinkers in our group. Anyway, the experience was like no other. The place is small and absolutely adorable. They had a list of coffee drinks that sounded wonderful, and some beautiful pastries behind the counter. The owners are both beautiful singers and sang a variety of operetta and show tunes. It was a two-person show. The customers appeared to be regulars and knew what to expect. The were both kind and outgoing and involved the audience in the show. It appears that they change the musical numbers regularly. It seems like the cafe itself has a lovely culture and they host other events during the week. The show is really a one-of-a-kind experience. If you enjoy opera music or show tunes, I highly recommend it. The only reason for not giving 5 stars is that the food was just OK. It consisted of a cheese and fruit plate, mushroom ravioli with meat sauce, and a glass of Prosecco. We ordered extra glasses of wine and a small dessert to share. As, I said, I didn't expect much for the price, and making the same dish for everyone is the easiest way to go for crowd with such a small staff. I'm not sure how it could be changed, but I may have preferred to eat first and just had drinks or dessert at the show. All in all, it was a very lovely evening.

    I discovered this café through Yelp while searching for a spot in the Hillcrest area. It immediately caught my eye because it had all five-star reviews--which is rare! There's usually at least one person who isn't completely satisfied, so I figured it was definitely worth checking out. From the moment I arrived, I was struck by the café's unique and charming ambiance. It's clear the owner put a lot of thought and care into the decor--some of the pieces show incredible craftsmanship and attention to detail. I happened to visit on St. Patrick's Day, and there was a parade happening nearby, which added to the festive vibe. I also snapped a bunch of photos by the pink tree outside--such a cute spot! I ordered a fancy drink and a pastry, and both were delicious. The owner even came over to chat with us. She was incredibly warm and down-to-earth--she totally gave me "girl next door" vibes. I'll definitely be back. Conclusion: The five stars are absolutely well-deserved. Ciao!

    Place setting for Phantom Event 2024

    Went for the Halloween Phantom of the Opera dinner event. I love opera and was absolutely blown away with how lovely Victoria & Rosario were. It was absolutely so beautiful and wonderful made me tear up. The show was great and was lovely to enjoy wine, some really nice lasagna, and a leisurely charcuterie. A heart fulfilling and joyful evening! Thank you both for the light and beautiful sounds you bring to this world! Oh gosh almost forgot to mention the beautiful and cool masquerade decor! The cherry on top!

    matcha menu
    Manassa P.

    Ordered pastries from this place through too good to go and they were nice. Ordered some drinks separately and they were a little disappointing. The matcha drinks were very watered down/ milky.

    Cakes!
    Alex S.

    Everything Italiano. Coffee? Yes. Pastries? Yes. Cake? Yes. Pizza? Yea. Ice cream? Wine? Beer? Yes yes yes. No matter what time of the day or what mood you're in, you'd be able to find at least one thing that might strike your fancy. They even have live music on occasion. I love pistachio things and I tried their pistachio croissant. It was good! But kinda on the expensive side at $7. The staff are friendly and welcoming, you'd enjoy your time there inside or outside (great for people watching)

    Inside seating
    Kuo L.

    A welcoming and cozy cafe in Hillcrest with breakfast food and pastries, paninis, and salads. The hostess was very friendly and offered some suggestions from the menu. They have decent vegetarian options on the menu, but wish there were more vegan options. Ended up getting avocado toast and side salad which were fresh and flavorful. The cafe is clean, bright, and splendidly decorated with regal teal seats. Combined with the gold-colored utensils, the place felt luxurious. Seats were comfortable. They had outlets for my laptop.

    Cookie and late
    Joseph B.

    Such a cute place with a great atmosphere and people working there. The coffee was nice and the cookie really grew on me. Excited to come here again for sure and try more.

    Cappuccino

    I stopped in to grab a cappuccino. The woman working there was friendly and the cappuccino was good.

    Enjoying some Afternoon tea
    Michelle G.

    Dearest reader, It seems as if you may have..stumbled upon a ROARING review of Divo Diva Cafe . I found Divo Diva Cafe scrolling through Facebook one day & immediately became intrigued by an Afternoon Tea that was to be held. There were only twenty spots available & I just knew I had to be in one of them. The booking process was so easy. Victoria helped set me up with two other ladies joining me so we would be able to sit with one another. Pictures do NOT do this place justice. Every corner has a pop of color & something interesting to see. The book case wall was my absolute favorite. Seriously looked like something out of a Princess story book. Parking was SUPER easy. There is a park & pay within walking distance with a close cross walk. The singing was also something else to hear! I've only included a snippet to encourage you to experience that type of power house in person. I have always admired hearing the song Carmen Habanera, but experiencing it in person had me in complete awe. Can not say enough good things about my experience here. The staff was great, food delicious, music (clarinet & two opera singers ) out of this world good, & overall a really nice atmosphere. I'll definitely be back soon .

The vibe is very European. The waitstaff is very engaged, friendly and provides excellent service. Appetizer - We had the Citrus Marinated Octopus and Calvados Chicken Liver Pate. Both were simply amazing and full of flavor. Soup - We each ordered the Sweet Corn & Pinon soup. I can't begin to describe how delicious it was. They use wildflowers in the soup which provide a unique flavor. The soup is packed with flavor. Salads -We had the Brussel Sprout salad and the Roasted Baby Beets salad. Both were great but the Roasted Baby Beets was out of this world. The Mexican Lavender dressing, candied pecans, pickled onions and Fennel Goat Cheese danced on our tastebuds. I am looking forward to going back soon to try more of their menu. It's very rare that a restaurant's menu captures my complete attention.

Parking is a nightmare good luck finding parking within a mile of the restaurant. Pros: atmosphere, drinks, service Cons: food wasn't great for the price, restaurant was small and crowded, no parking Service: All of our servers were friendly and very accommodating. Gave us some knowledge on the menu and recommended cocktails based on our preference. I had spilled my drink and they were quick to make me another one. Food: I had intended to get the prime ribeye cap steak but they ran out for the night around 8pm. I shared the steak sampler which came with four different cuts of steak and 4 sauces. I ordered medium and it was cooked medium/medium rare which was fine with me, it also had a good sear, almost burnt though. Out of the four steaks, we only liked two based off flavor and tenderness. The other two were more tough and gamey. None of the sauces really stood out but the bordelaise and horseradish were good. For our sides we got fries, roasted broccoli, and the grilled wedge salad. Fries were average. The roasted broccoli had really good flavor, I expected the broccoli to be al dente but it was cooked to mush and drenched in sauce. The grilled wedge salad was decent, there was a slightly bitter taste to it. I know it says grilled wedge but the experience of biting into the salad and it being both hot and cold was not pleasant. Cocktails: I tried the Honey Ryder and New Wave. These were recommended as the more fruity/sweet cocktails. You can definitely taste the alcohol but it's only 2oz so it's not too strong. Ambience: 10/10 I got seated downstairs by the bar. Only thing about downstairs is that it's too dark to take photos unless you use flash. Overall, I agree with the other reviews saying to go just for drinks and appetizers. I would go again just to sit upstairs and get drinks and take pictures. We left unsatisfied and ended up getting in-n-out after.

Now if you're super into smash burgers, this ain't it, and you really need to rethink your life choices. This bad boii right here is a thickun', with beautifully melted gruyere cheese, dijonaise, and caramalized onions tucked inside of a majestic sesame seed bun-served with fries, a dill pickle, and a FANTASTIC aioli for $17!!!! Yes, $17!!!!!! This burger ain't no joke, and it's more than enough reason to skirt your buns on down to try it out. Now the fun doesn't stop there. Have you freaking seen this place? The outside does not do it justice whatsoever. Once you step inside the door, you'll forget where you are-partially because it's pretty dark and you can't see shit, but the other part is that it's magical. I love poppin' up to the bar and chillin' in this space. There are two more totally different experiences to dine in, but I'll leave that up to you to find and explore. Although they're known for their burger, delicious drinks, and signature ice cream sandwich, there's so much more to write home about. I RECENTLY HAD ONE OF THE BEST MEALS I'VE HAD IN A LONG TIME HERE. The steak sampler we had, with sides of honey gochujang carrots, and beautifully scalloped potatoes, left us in ecstasy! The four cuts of beef were incredibly tender, deftly seasoned, and seared to perfection. The accompanying sauces, except for the tomato one, were also really good. And I have even mentioned the twice baked potato or the BROCCOLI!!! YES, THE BROCCOLI!!! If you get nothing else, get yourself a burger and some broccoli-TRUST!!! I could go on, but I'll leave you with this...the parking is not pleasant, but the food is fantastic, the music is fresh, and the drinks are splendid. Starlite, you must be my lucky star. Super HUGE thanks to Dani, the chefs, and the crew for making Starlite so amazing. Enjoy my friends.

There is a "happy hour" on Monday but it's called Ouster Monday, oysters are $1 and they have different specials that are not offered on the normal happy hour. Got the crispy chicken wings, Wagyu longaniza, and burger The chicken wings were very crispy and came topped with a jalapeño relish. The relish had a citrusy taste to it or maybe it was the liquid from the pickled jalapeños. I liked the crispness of the chicken but I think the relish was too acidic for me. The Wagyu longaniza was my favorite, very strong beefy flavor. It came on top of salsa matcha which i thought was very tasty so much that I dipped the wings and burger in the sauce. The slice of radish on top gave it a nice texture and crunch. I see the Wagyu hotdog is offered on the oyster Monday special so I'm gonna have to come back and try that for sure. The burger was cooked nicely, medium as requested. It came topped with an egg, truffled onion jam, and cheddar cheese. The bun was nicely toasted and the egg and cheese added a nice rich element to it but I didn't care for the onion jam, it gave the burger an overall sweet profile. I'd simply ask for it without next time. Over all a solid burger, maybe I'd add bacon too. I also had a margarita which was on happy hour special. I asked for it to be spicy and they added a tajin rim which was nice. Spicy and refreshing! Parking is all on the street so I had to part a few blocks away. Overall a solid happy hour. I'll be back on Oyster Monday for the hot dog and fish collars.
