                      When I booked this reservation the app offered a choice of either the Summerlicious menu or the regular menu. I booked the regular menu. Upon arrival, only the Summerlicious menu was on offer. I would not have made this reservation if I had been given accurate information. This leaves me wondering if I should book a restaurant on this app during Summer or Winterlicious. Seems to me I will need to call ahead going forward and book the old school way to make sure I know what my options are. The app should make my life easier, not harder. Disappointed.

                      The chicken wrap was not all that.. the sauce for the chicken tasted like it came from a bottle. Another patron was on her phone on speaker for almost the whole meal. The peaceful ambience was destroyed by this annoyance. The waitress just laughed when I mentioned it to her more than once.

                      Escaping the heat, we lunch at a favourite spot with chicken satays in peanut sauce & papaya, carrot, tomato & bean salad to start and burrata salad with fennel, shredded cabbages, green mizuni & clementines for our shared main with Naan, ending with a churros base topped with ice cream. Delightful young staff but our Sri Lankan server was Laniruhi.

                      I have always had an excellent experience here at Diwan and recently brought family from California here for dinner for a special occasion and was dissapointed. The service was OK (not the usual pevel). There could have been more attention from the intial seating (no one to receive at reception) and waiting on water to be filled up were two such things. The manager on duty made up for a lot of it though food was also not up to the usual. The cauliflower steak lacked seasoning and the vegan meatballs in gravy was average though still tasty but not a standout. I will however come back as this is perhaps my only visit that wasnt as great. I would recommend removing the vegan meatballs from the venue and replacing with a real vegetarian dish. The falafel nachos were a standout and the highlight that all of us enjoyed

                      The food was great but the service was not good at all. I have been to Diwan before for many events, private dining but I must say the service has changed.

                      The service was slow, the dirty dishes were not removed from the table - even though we moved them to the other side of the table. Being charged $3.50 for tap water was irritating. The food was good.
