Divino Wine Bar Lounge Ilford

Lovely little wine bar and restaurant. Great service and atmosphere provided by very personable staff. They have an amazing selection of wines. A refreshing vibe to the area, where you can really relax and enjoy your drink. Will definately be going back.

An absolute amazing experience from start to finish. The setting and decor is beautiful and the service was outstanding. Vinnie went above and beyond to make our dining experience memorable and it certainly was. Very friendly service and the food was very good. One of the best steaks I've ever had. Also a lovely selection of wines. Would highly recommend

Beautiful venue, delicious food and wine! I had booked a table myself and five girlfriends for dinner last Friday evening. I booked a week in advance very easily directly through the restaurant's website and received a text and email confirmation immediately.

On the night we were all very impressed by the decor and warmth of the greeting we were each given on arrival.

The setting is intimate, luxurious and sophisticated if you want somewhere for a relaxed drink and meal without having to push through crowds or shout to make yourself heard. The prices are on the slightly higher side but for the quality of the whole place this is to be expected and dare I say, at the risk of snobbish, it keeps the whole vibe of the venue slightly more refined.

Service was very fast, attentive and friendly. I had a brandy and coke then I tried a house red wine which was very good (the lovely gentleman who served it initially offered to swap it if I didn't like it). They are definitely wine connoisseurs!

My friends and I were all happy with our food and drinks. I ordered the Caeser Salad pictured and a lovely, decadent chocolate concoction for dessert which a few of us shared and thoroughly enjoyed.

Will definitely be returning and several of my friends said the same!

Well done Divino- the area needed a decent bar/restaurant like this!

Had a lovely lunch for Mothering Sunday here, the staff are very attentive, the food delicious and the wines lovely. My mum had the Chablis and it was really quite special. This place is still relatively new and often doesn’t look busy, so I really hope people make the effort to try it, even if just for a special occasion, as this area is lacking in classy drinking spots and good Italian restaurants. Really recommend.

I've never given a review of a place I haven't been to before but I wanted to express my disappointment at the online menu. I've walked past a few times and it looks inviting and the drinks menu is great but I cant understand why an "Italian" restaurant only offers one spaghetti, one linguini, two ravioli and a risotto dish.
It's a step in the right direction to raise the tone of the neighbourhood but not enough to draw me in yet.

Great authentic Italian wine bar and cuisine. Staff are top standings. Sommelier very pro and welcoming, smoothly helping with choices from food to pairing wines. Service is efficient. Fantastic food. Rizotto safran, raviolis home made. Quality price is a wow factor. Highly recommended little gem 3 mns walk from Gants hill tube station.

Went to have a birthday dinner and when we arrived was greeted by Riccardo who couldn’t do enough for us! The drinks were top quality, the service amazing and the food totally unforgettable. Fresh, tasty and good portions, I haven’t been so satisfied with a meal in a seriously long time! When Riccardo found out it was my birthday he made it extra special with attention to detail. I would highly recommend this place. If you want fresh food, good drinks and excellent service you NEED to go to DiVino’s.. I will 100% be back again!

This was our first visit to this restaurant that we have meaning to go to for a while , and we wish we had gone sooner. We went straight for main courses , the salmon and Divino Ravioli which were both excellent. We were impressed with the service provided by Ricardo , who knew his wines , not surprising as he had previously been in the employ of Gordon Ramsey. The atmosphere was enhanced by the excellent Mellow jazz that was playing in the background. Another visit is definitely on the cards.
