      We had a great experience celebrating my daughter’s 16th birthday. The chef (Marlon) was funny and entertaining. The food he cook was to perfection. The server was very friendly and was on top of my refills.

      I’ll be honest…I went to DIOSA because one of my friends suggested it. I had read several reviews, and there were some that didn’t make me feel like going—but I kept an open mind. There were seven of us in our party, and our reservation was yesterday, Saturday at 4:30pm. The parking was already pretty full, but we were all able to find parking spaces without needing the valet service. I’m sure it was because of the time. Also there weren’t a lot of people, so it was nice and the noise level was perfect. The hostess Luisa (I hope I remember the name correctly) sat us almost immediately, and was very sweet throughout the evening. We told her there was a cake that was delivered earlier, and she went to go check on it immediately. Our server José came over right away as well, and was amazing the whole night. Wendy took over for his break, and she was very attentive, checking on us repeatedly. The appetizers were yummy: corn taquitos, birria empanadas, and veggie empanadas. We also all shared birria nachos, and it was very good! One of my friends and I shared enchiladas poblanas and that was pretty good too. For me I think it would’ve been better if they were with chicken, but that’s a matter of taste. The black beans were ok. One of my other friends ordered the salmon risotto and she enjoyed the crunchiness. It is a bit pricey, but it’s a very beautiful place to get together. The food is not microwaved or bar food, the presentation is lovely, and we all liked what we ate. Also, there’s a very pretty bar area in the back, and a private room for events. I’m glad I gave it a shot, and was pleasantly surprised. I met the manager Stella as we were leaving, and thanked her and Lucia for everything. Keep up the good work! 😊
