  • Review: Well truly a fine dinning experience without all the stuffiness, your hosts Mario Rosa and Joe (family members) truly cook and serve for you with all their heart.The advantages of the owners being on the front line are obvious to that of spectacular food with the best service ever, even being a smaller locale, Divino's Trattoria is truly a dining experience with simple pasta dishes to extravagant dishes compiled by Chef Joseph, and with the simple vino della casa to a great bottle of Brunello di Montalcino served by Maitre De/Waiter extrodinar Mario your dinning experience will be a memorable one for sure.
    I highly recommend this restaurant, nicely nestle in the downtown core of Essex.

  • Order: Antipasto Misto, the Mozzarrella di Buffola is to die for The Lamb chops are succulent, and the Salmon is delectable My wife loves the Luna di Luna, I prefer Masi or a nice Amarrone my self All the desserts are special but you must try the Creme Brulle and the Espresso is the best in Essex county also a fine selection of Liqueurs and after dinner drinks very reasonable

  • Review: We have been regulars at Divino since it opened. The owner Mario is always delightful, the food is fantastic.... much better than Spago and the setting is much more welcoming. Love the live entertainment, homemade desserts and the staff are always friendly. We have recommended Divino to several friends and co-workers.... our Itatian friends say the Gnocchi is better then Nonna's !

  • Order: Gnocchi (came with salad) venison chops, Wine and Dessert
