First time dining here. I must say it was a great experience. The food and drinks were good. The atmosphere is great as well. The whole restaurant is a vibe. The staff was friendly. Parking was easy and they also have valet. Having an elegant restaurant so close to home is a bonus for me. I definitely recommend.

This place is beautiful. Went during Happy Hour, AKA "Goddess Hour", it's from 3-6 with many sharable food options and the drinks were delicious. I enjoyed the Guava Lavender Margarita. We ordered the street corn, taquitos, steak mole nachos, guacamole and bacon wrapped shrimp. Everything was delicious. I highly recommend

Alright so I went back. And this time was a much different experience. Let's start off with this time we were happily greeted and given the choice of seating this time around. Much better than the last experience already. We decided to sit at a booth/bottle service table. I can't say how great their interior design is. It's absolutely beautiful and perfectly lit in a great setting. The staff was extremely helpful with the menu and very attentive this time around. We ordered Steak tacos Chilaquiles And chicken mole I didn't get to try the tacos. However I did try the steak from the chilaquiles. Marinated and seasoned absolutely perfectly. grilled to perfection. Display was amazing. We ordered a few of their display drinks. Plata o Plomo Taste and display is impressive. I guarantee you won't go wrong with this. Great hint of smoke and cinnamon. Elegant taste and scent. Chicken was cooked perfectly. Not under or overly dry. The mole sauce is definitely on the lower end of richness. It's far lighter than the usual mole. Which I think is good since it won't be too sweet for most. From the moment of walking in, to the moment we got our food and the moment we left. This time it was amazing. Such a wonderful experience. Thanks again to the whole staff at Diosa for this go around being a memorable forever dining experience!

I was impressed with the food, atmosphere and service. My friends and I were there for brunch and had a splendid experience. Our servers were top notch and knowledgeable. We were celebrating a birthday and they went all out with a beautiful birthday Horchata ice cream and small champagne flute for my friend. It’s pricey, but food was delicious. I will definitely be making another trip.

The appetizers were great, but can't say the same for the service. Just awful. The bar, however, was most entertaining. Great bartender! Had fun watching all the exotic drinks he was making. Ordered a few.😉🥳👌

We came here to celebrate our anniversary, we had about 2 hours to have lunch together and unfortunately we did not have a good experience with service. Our reservation was at 12:45 and we arrived there at 12:46. We got sat down and got offered water. Almost 40 minutes passed until the hostess approached us to asked if we’ve been attended. “I said no, for nothing “ she took our order and came back with just one of our coffees and still took another 10 minutes to get my fiancés coffe. From there it had already been almost an hour when we finally got our food. Once we got our food our server finally came to see us and ask how was our food. Food was really good so no complaints there. We were running out of time so I had to go ask the hostess for a desert menu, a box to go, place an order for dessert and ask for the check all at once cause I didn’t want to be run out of time. Once we were served our dessert we had no space on our table cause no plates were taken away. I don’t know about other people but I think that going to a place like DIOSA is to also fulfill an aesthetic side of a good picture and that was not possible with so many plates on our table. I’m leaving some pictures as a reference of our timeline there. Also the place was almost empty only a big party, two guys before us and a couple that came about 30 min after us. They both were attended to much faster than us. Overall great beautiful place, good food but we got the worst service 😔.

Staff was a little disorganized, but food was good and the presentation was an amazing experience. Keep in mind if you get the pasta it's good for 2 people so it's about $100+ for the plate. Margaritas are strong and with some you get almost 2 servings.

Excellent food, good drinks and a fun vibe. The only negative thing I have to say is there is a 3% surcharge that I was not aware or expecting when I received the check. For that reason I’m giving it two stars and I won’t be coming back.
