Trattoria Divina

My wife and I had a very nice experience. The food was outstanding and the wait staff was very attentive. My wife had the filet wrapped in bacon. It was melt in your mouth tender. I had the Arrabiata. It was delicious. Definitely a thumbs up!

Excellent food. Good service. Great atmosphere. Food taste authentic. Will go back again.

This was me and my husband’s favorite place we ate during our stay at Sea Pines. The service was impeccable and their food was amazing. I loved the extra touches of complimentary champagne and an amuse bouchée. They also had a really great bottle special. I also felt the portions were incredibly generous. My husband had the grouper special and it was cooked perfectly. I had the lobster ravioli, which had huge chunks of lobster. So good! I’m also Sicilian and thought the food was well prepared and authentic. Overall, this restaurant left us feeling spoiled and well-​fed!

Absolutely fabulous service and incredible food. Homemade mushroom ravioli unbelievable, caesar salad fantastic (once they remembered dressing). Cant wait to come back

Formal Italian dining. The menu includes standard Italian fare & some different ones. We went here because it was vegetarian & vegan friendly, with eggless pasta options. The portions were large. We had the eggplant parmagiana, & the vegetarian pomodori. Service was good. The price is high.

Decent food, high prices excellent attentive waiters and busboys but boy the owner just left a horrible taste in my mouth. We were just finishing from an early dinner and had just taken our last sip of wine when the owner comes over and says «not to rush you but we have another couple waiting for your table.» Now there were other open tables and this couple clearly wanted our spot in the wine room. I don’t like spending over $ 30 on an entrée plus wine and appetizer only to be pushed out. We were ready to go but I didn’t appreciate the «here’s your hat what’s your hurry» send off. Was planning on returning but now probably not.

This was recommended by my friend, and we are so happy we were ablate eat there! I was most delicious. Asparagus, the most delightful taste ever, piscatora linguini, eggplants delicious, the sauce was heavenly! Lobster soup, so good lots of lobster meat very filling.

This place was awesome! Food was amazing. The service was fantastic and they were so good to my 4 year old even though it’s a nice place and made him feel special. The Caprese and porcini ravioli were out of this world, not to mention the bananas foster cheesecake! Yum!

Food was awesome. Service was even better. Would love to return. I’d recommend the osso bucco.

Authentic Italian! The restaurant was short staffed tonight, but to be honest, we didn’t even notice. The service was GREAT, I can only imagine it would be impeccable with a full staff. We got a complimentary champagne toast when we sat down, plus a tasting appetizer (plum, goat cheese and honey = yum!). All of the pasta dishes were amazing and fresh and homemade. The BEST meal was the seafood medley pasta — loaded with mussels, clams, calamari, shrimp and lobster! Totally delicious! To finish the night off, we got some complimentary tiramisu! Definitely recommend checking it out for some great service and authentic homemade Italian!

My boyfriend and I decided to try Trattoria Divina for the first time over Valentines Day Weekend to celebrate the romantic holiday, but also our one year anniversary of dating. Upon being seated for dinner, we were kindly brought two glasses of complementary champagne and an intricate tuna tartar.
Our waiter, Jesse, was unbelievable and checked in on us the perfect amount of times. The wine selection was very nice and reasonably priced. The rest of the staff was timely on either taking our plates, filling our glasses, or insuring we were enjoying ourselves. I had a personalized bottle of champagne and engraved glasses and, when I excused myself from the table, I snuck to the back (while my boyfriend wasn’t looking) and asked if they would please bring it out with dessert. Our waiter said it was no problem at all and he brought it back to chill in the meantime and presented it along with dessert. While we took our time finishing the champagne and enjoying our night, we were not rushed one bit, and then were told that our dessert was on them and to enjoy our anniversary.
The dinner was out of this world. I had the Angosta E Gamberone and it was plated beautifully. I didn’t know it was possible, but it tasted even better than it looked! The portions were nice and filling. My boyfriend got the fresh lobster filled raviolis and he said they were unbelievable as well. I don’t remember the name of it, but for dessert we had some crème creation with espresso to pour over it. Again, delicious.
If you’re looking for an amazing meal with great service, I recommend Trattoria Divina. If you’re looking to enjoy a special night and really feel wined and dined, Trattoria Divina should be your first choice. We will definitely be back!

My boyfriend and I visited Trattoria on New Year’s Eve. We arrived early for our reservation, but they had tables outside we could use while waiting for our table inside to become available. We were shown our table on time and seated in a corner, against the wine wall. Negatives first: before a minute passed one of the owners spilt the complimentary prosecco on my dress. Of course she apologized and brought me a couple more cloth napkins, but she never returned after that. I ordered the shrimp scampi dish which was somewhat disappointing except for the shrimp. I thought shrimp scampi was served on linguini? This shrimp scampi was served on a very small bed of cold risotto and over cooked chunks of lobster, which were lukewarm and had the texture of rubber.
Positives: My boyfriend ordered the filet, medium well, but it was cooked WELL. It was a nice portion of meat, flavorful and hot. I actually liked his dish more than mine because I don’t mind well cooked meat and it was wasn’t cold. The ravioli that surrounded the filet was excellent.
BTW-​Our bill was not comped for even the cost of dry cleaning a dress.

Allow
share that we started our 2015 – 16 New Year’s Eve Celebration here and stayed several hours. The wine list for those that love wine. extraordinaire. The food. extraordinaire. Visit this little gem and you will be pleasantly surprised.

New Year’s Eve dinner was FABULOUS. Professional service, excellent food. All of us thought it was great. Happy New Year!

This place was a little pricy for the quality but the service was great! The quality of food from their limited early bird menu wasn’t as good as the main menu items. The lobster bisque which was really talked up in reviews was a little bland. Also, the reason we picked the place was for the lobster pot pie: which was very good it just didn’t taste like lobster pot pie: there were not the traditional vegetables you find in a pot pie as well as hardly any sauce.
However there were very large portions of lobster and the lobster ravioli and shrimp scampi were excellent.
If you go don’t rush to make it to the early bird special, take your time and go for the Italian dishes: which are their specialty after all!

OMG stop the press and make sure u stop ur feet and jump right in to this fabulous dining! I can’t not say enough about how amazing the food was! My mouth was doing cart wheels the entire time and everything I ate! Hulo I bow down to u (he’s the executive Chef) he put his heart, soul, love and foot in everything I had and my sidekicks too. All the pasta is homemade, (I’m already drooling as I write this ha). It seems like majority make of everything we had were done from scratch! Pasta, bread and cheese! They even bring you complementary sample of wine.
I have been to Italy few times so u know the real from the Olive Garden taste! They make there own mozzarella cheese from scratch for Pete sake! I almost wondered if they mashed their own grapes to make homemade wine??? Humm do they? Needless to say my experience was fabulous and it would be a shame if you were on the island and didn’t stop in for a taste of Italy !!!

While trying to find a restaurant that had an available reservation, my wife stumbled upon Trattoria Divina. Such a great find for us because the food was excellent. We were visiting from NY and needless to say, very picky about Italian food! Both ravioli dishes, Ravioli di Spinaci and the Agnolotti Tartufo Nero e porcini were delicious. The atmosphere was friendly and our server Jesse was excellent. He was very helpful in making suggestions and was accommodating to our children. We will definitely return to sample more of Chef Hugo Lee’s delicious dishes!

A fairly new restaurant in the area, and very good overall. Its tucked into the corner of a strip mall, so it can be tough to find. But when we called to get directions, they were very friendly and led us right there. The service was good throughout, and the interior is quite nicely done to reflect a upscale Italian restaurant. The complimentary champagne to start and the bread with both butter and hummus was a great touch. My wife and I split the special heirloom tomato salad to start with, which was very fresh. For my entrée, I went with the Guittarini con Pollo e Salsiccia– basically a linguine variant mixed with chicken and Italian sausage and topped with spicy marina sauce. Everything was cooked perfectly, and the sauce had just the right amount of kick to it. I really enjoyed the meal and experience.

Service was spectacular! Complimentary prosecco and caprese salad. Our table was ready upon arrival. Garlic butter with bread was tasty! Everyone enjoyed their dishes – best bolognase I’ve ever had. Meat and fish dishes were well liked also! Definitely recommend!

All I can say is – WOW! I’m just afraid that with too many great reviews, I won’t be able to get a reservation in the future. Let’s start from when you walk in. Very nice ambience with classic Italian background music — not Frankie, though. Ornate ceiling with classic Roman décor. A small bar area in the back with around 10 stools. Not really set up for eating at the bar.
We were instantly greeted and seated by the window. The establishment is 4 years old, but new management for only 3 years. Executive Chef Hugo Lee also has a place in San Diego. We were started off with a complimentary glass of champagne. Then served an Asian Pear topped with bleu cheese and green sauce. For appetizer, we ordered the baked brie which comes baked in a philo dough with a bruschetta type bread and granny smith apple slices (thin). Their wine list isn’t extensive, but does have some variety and reasonably priced classic wines. I saw a 2005 Silver Oak Cab which is quite rare on any wine list. I would have preferred the 2007. Instead we had a Malbec which, for the value, was perfect.
While a different server came with the pear and the appetizer, our main server was Jesse who did an excellent job providing detailed explanations of the offering and made great recommendations. For the main course, my wife had the Ravioli di Spinaci which she claims was the best she’s ever eaten. It’s served with a citrus based oil with mini artichokes on the side. For my main course, I had the Aregosta E Gamberone which is an 8 oz lobster tail smothered in a light cream sauce with 2 fan tail breaded shrimp over mashed potatoes. Except for the small tail fin, the entire shell is removed making it very easy to eat.
An finally dessert— I usually drink my desserts, but Jesse mentioned the fresh gelatos and sorbets for their Mother’s Day specials and hit the bulls eye when he mentioned Passion Fruit Sorbet. That’s not something you find all the time and many times they don’t get it right. It’s easy to substitute orange juice with passion fruit flavor to get a passion fruit sorbet. Not this time. They really nailed it. This was like eating a fresh passion fruit. It was quite thick and slightly gummy, but very flavorful. My new favorite restaurant on the island. Great job.
