A Taste of the Mediterranean in the Heart of Georgetown
Located in the heart of Georgetown, Cafe Divan is a stylish restaurant and takeout that offers a unique dining experience. Our restaurant boasts floors of Brazilian cherry and Turkish tile, with glass windows that wrap around the dining room. The furniture is from Italy, and the windows feature a charming child's drawing. Our owner, Cavit Ozturk, has over 25 years of experience in the restaurant industry, and our chef, Yucel Atalay, has previously worked at Nizam's in Vienna. Together, we have created a menu that features Turkish cuisine with dishes that are not found on other area menus.
