Divido - Mount Hawthorn

The food was really very good and the service was good. I liked that g/f was clearly marked plenty of options. It was odd that the my only had 3 tables in on a Saturday night, though.

We had a fantastic tasting menu with wine pairings at this restaurant. The atmosphere was cozy and the staff was friendly. It was quiet during the week, so we were able to choose our table easily.

Dined last night and enjoyed the $60 three course special.<br/ <br/ The entrees of calamari and quail were both very good.<br/ The slow roasted lamb shoulder for two was silky and tender, cooked to perfection (and a very generous size), sides were shaved fennel salad and potato parmigiana (a potato gratin with a parmesan crust).<br/ The Zolo Malbec was a perfect match, an excellent choice by me.<br/ Desserts were very enjoyable, Croatian donuts and panna cotta.<br/ <br/ Service was friendly and attentive.

My wife and I enjoyed dinner at Divido Restaurant last night, April 14, 2018. It had been many years since our last visit, back in 2010. I had forgotten about Mount Hawthorn as a great restaurant destination until my wife reminded me of the delicious wood-fired half duck I had enjoyed there years ago. I decided to order the duck again, and it was just as tasty as I remembered from 8 years ago. My wife's Osso Bucco was good overall, but it was a bit salty and the meat could have been more tender. The cheese board we ordered was a highlight, especially the Gorgonzola which was a delightful Italian take on the famous English Stilton. We highly recommend Divido for a fine dining experience. And we must mention that the bottle of Rolf Binder Shiraz we had was truly exquisite.

This restaurant is charming with delicious pannacotta and donuts, excellent service, and a pleasant atmosphere. It was not very crowded, possibly due to the challenging economic environment at the moment.
