This location is beautiful with great drinks and bit disappointed with the food not that great and over priced if I'm being honest . The service was okay I forgot the waiters name she was lacking in customer service . The only good thing was the drinks only recommend if you are wanting to drink and not for dining. read more

Food was amazing (had the street corn, 2 of every taco and steak nachos). Service was even better! Ivan made our experience fantastic. read more

The food was GREAT I definitely recommend a server named Christian he was very helpful and knew the menu to a T customer service was great he was even patient with us (we didn't k ow what we wanted) he took time to explain everything we asked and recommended the perfect drinks! read more

Very fancy ambiance, however not worth the price. Food was okay decent flavor but not breathtaking which is what you'd expect from the look and price of the place. Also extremely crowded, you'd think they'd have enough to walk between tables without bumping into people. read more

I was in the Downey area last weekend and found this hidden gem. DIOSA IN Downey, CA. The decor inside is gorgeous. The staff is very friendly. The food and the drinks are delicious, try the Diosa cocktail it's so delicious. Our waitress Emily was awesome. Everything she recommended on the menu was spot on. Only thing I didn't really care for was the parking situation other than that, I had a great experience. read more

Great service and the food was delicious. We reserved a table and did not take long to get seated.

This restaurant came highly recommended so glad we went for dinner . The atmosphere is aesthetically pleasing, and the menu has a lot of options. Polite, prompt, professional service from Jorge S. Thank you . It makes the experience so much better when the server is attentive and friendly. Delicious food, great choices. Pleasant atmosphere. I'm going back, for sure! read more

Beautiful atmosphere, food was good, service was kind of slow. Steak arrachera had good flavor, unfortunately my black beans were cold and not tender enough. Steak empanadas are also a good choice. Took the server a while to clean up empty dishes and cups. Although the server wasn't as prompt as we'd like he was very nice and personable. Parking is not too bad considering it's a shared lot. read more

This restaurant is too expensive for the service they provided. I made a reservation for 9 people and still waited 45 minutes to be seated and the restaurant didn't even seem to be busy. Our waitress spoke Spanish but chose not to with my family. She seemed to hate her job. The food was mid, my family and I will personally never be back here again. read more

Taylor is awesome! She provided excellent customer service! Thanks Taylor! She served us in a timely manner and was very friendly!

Great food and service. Christian was the best! Margarita flight was so delicious! Enjoy the ambience with food and drink and feel like a goddess. read more

I was able to visit on the second day they opened with a few friends of mine. The place is gorgeous and the ambiance was really enjoyable. One of the staff member (managers) Evelyn was attentive from the moment we walked in and provided excellent customer service. Our favorite was Michael, I believe he was Filipino. Very polished employee, experienced, and presentable. Make it a point to request seating in Michael's section. Good Vibes! Thank you D I O S A I'll be back soon! Love the tartare. - P read more

Excellent service with great music and even better food. Rogelio was super attentive and nice!

Great food and great service. Than you Rogelio---you made my wife's birthday a special experience.

We recently booked an event at DIOSA for over 60 people attending a conference in the City of Downey. People attending were from nationwide and booked the place based on reviews and follow-up calls from the DIOSA management staff. Stella and the staff provided outstanding service and food. All who attended the event were very impressed by the facility, service, and food. The staff was very attentive to everyone's needs and fulfilled requests promptly. Thank you, Stella and staff, for a beautiful evening. read more

Diosa is aesthetically beautiful. The decoration would be delicious, if it was food. Too bad you can't take a bite out of the walls. Lol I met my friend for a moms night out and we were excited to be there. At first glance, we felt really underdressed as it seemed as all of the women were in dresses and heels and full makeup and we were in jeans and nice blouses, coming right after work. We said next time, we will dress up more. We were seated right away, but the stools at the high table we were at seemed far away from the table. I kept having to get up to scoot my chair in. The server greeted us and was really friendly. He told us about some drinks and the way the menu was organized. We decided on some drinks and they brought them out. We took a little longer on the food and he recommended that we both decide what to share because the plates would come out at different times and portions were large enough to be shared. We decided on the chicken mole and enchiladas poblanas with a vegetable empanada appetizer. The food took unusually long to come out. When it finally did come out, it was lukewarm. My mole was super salty and tasted like Mole Doña Maria. Actually, Mole Doña Maria tastes better. The chicken was dry and also super salty. It left me really thirsty. My friend said that her enchiladas tasted like enmoladas and they weren't anything special. The drinks were very tasty but had too much ice. We ordered another round and asked for less ice. When they brought them, the waiter had a whole explanation about how they would taste different with the light ice.. And they added extra lollipops inside to make up for the missing ice. It was strange. Our bill was really high; too high for a restaurant that shares a parking lot with a CVS drugstore and a Chase bank. If you're going to pay this amount of money, you're better off going somewhere where the food is going to be as good as the decor and you're truly in an upscale neighborhood. For good Mexican food, go down Firestone about two blocks to La Barca. They have way better food and service. Sorry Diosa, you were more like Diabla. Enjoy taking pictures if you do decide to come and waste your hard earned money here. That's probably the only thing this restaurant does well. read more

4.5 stars, realistically. :) We had a birthday party of 4 and dined by the open walls "outside," which was a nice surprise. Very Vegas/LA vibe. Most other patrons also seemed to be celebrating events, especially graduation parties in June, which I think is appropriate for the prices here-- high but not outlandish, considering the quality. With the "instagrammable" icon on some selections, were worried it may be a social media trap, but we were really pleased by the food. The mango-habanero aguachile, camaron taquitos, and pollo mole were especially phenomenal, but everything we ordered was excellent. Service was a little slow but this felt by design, our servers were very kind and attentive and it was nice to not feel rushed. We could take our time with our drinks and always had a plate to nibble on while we waited for the next, or for one of our servers to come back by. Definitely looking forward to our next visit. read more

Taylor was the absolute best! My father is extremely picky with restaurants. He absolutely loved this place. She was well informed about the drinks and dinner menu. read more

Excellent service and amazing food! Felt extremely welcomed by Priscilla as she checked on us regularly. Shout out to Michael and Emily who helped us throughout our meal. Would 100% come back! read more

If i could give zero stars I would. Do not come here save your money and the hassle of your special celebration being ruined by horrible customer service and ridiculously over priced Mexican Food. Let me start by saying my friends warned me to not come! I read the reviews and thought to myself can it really be that bad????? We had reservations at 9pm for a friends bday, we walk in the restaurant was not busy, several tables available. We get seated after 20 mins. Waiter introduces him self he looks stressed and miserable. We asked for recommendations of most popular items and the response was "everything is popular " So we ordered drinks while we looked at the extensive menu. 20 minutes later our waiter appears and asked us if we were ready to order drinks ? I looked confused and replied we already gave you our drink order. Waiter looks confused and says oh ok let retake your drink order. Ok what ever we repeat our drink orders. 30 mins later our drinks come out, at least they looked cute and pictures worthy but tasted like cheap alcohol and cough syrup. Finally the waiter reappears to take our food order and by this time we decide to just order their salsa & chip appetizer and guacamole. Waiter then proceeds and says that's it that's all your ordering ? And I said for now yes we want to try our drinks and appetizers 1st. Appetizers come out small but taste good our 1st drink was gone, we had to drink it as drinks are expensive here and we wanted to try something else. 20 min pass by and our waiter has not come back to take our food order, by this time we decided we will go else where. The restaurant is cute and has a cute theme, but I'm not sure what experience they are trying to sell to justify súper over priced enchiladas and the most expensive Paloma I have ever had. Waiter finally appears and we request the check paid my $140 dollars for water, 2 drinks, chips and salsa and guacamole and left else where. To wrap this up I also say several unhappy customers having to continuously flag their waiters down. I tried giving this place a chance, as I live in Downey and support my local business, but Diosa staff & management you have to do better. Read the yelp reviews ! read more

Rogelio our server treated us like family best service ever great ambience this place has great drinks and the food is amazing I highly recommend it read more

Ooof this place is a travesty. The menu had no direction. The drinks are cumbersome and watered down. They present themselves as a high-end Mexican restaurant, but most of the menu isn't even latin. I saw a cheese wheel pasta dish at one point. The food was nothing special especially for the price. I actually ate a cheaper meal at Javier's and it was 10 TIMES BETTER. the tequila selection was unimpressive. Service was quite awful. One of the managers was saying this restaurant got it start in Vancouver washington. That must be why the food is so bad. I'm sure there's not a big Latin influence in that area. This is so ca baby. Gotta come correct. read more

Yes, David the bartender and server was very nice and polite and a good vibe. We are definitely coming back again. Thank you David for your service read more

The restaurant is beautiful. Can't take that away. But the service, food and drinks are not to standard unfortunately. The waiter mentioned, plating will be served as dishes come out, not all at once. So you go figure, is it right? With reservation, took 30 min b4 we were seated & another 20 min b4 taking our drink & appetizer order. Ridiculous. The appetizers were a joke, our guacamole was in a cup size bowl while the "queso" fundido was also small, came out COLD, no stringy cheese here!! Once drinks were served, they 4got 1 cocktail drink & after a couple of times requesting the drink we gave up & asked for water, lol. SERVICE was terrible!!!! We kept getting ignored or told, "we'll be right back", & when we requested silverware the napkins were damp with seafood odor. Definitely returned them and clean utensils arrived with paper napkins. RUDE!!!! My husband ordered Steak Arrechera which he did like, however our friends ordered Pollo al pastor, and Coco Risotto Salmon, which was warm and Salmon had an awkward taste. We had to taste it after her dislike and gesture. She was correct, bad salmon. I ordered a salad since the waiter mentioned the plating process. At the end, I ordered a coffee and they brought me the coffee cold with the milk in a plastic to go cup, and plastic spoon. I was in awe. Never will I go again here nor have my friends go. Totally gave them the scoop since they live in Downey. read more

David gave my party and I amazing service! He also gave me great food and drink recommendations. Thank you for the great service. Btw the Coco Chanel is a must try! read more

I come to Diosa frequently and tonight, 10/20/2023 on a Friday was the best time. Not only my company but the friendly and accommodating staff. Lily, the goddess girl is always so nice and excellent at making drinks. She makes you feel like she knows you. Javier the waiter was very attentive and friendly. Priscilla the manager is so engaging and friendly and accommodating. She goes to every table and has a genuine conversation. The food is outstanding, can't go wrong with anything on the menu. But the staff tonight was exceptional. Looking forward to coming back soon. Highly recommend. read more

Food was amazing and so was the manager Pricilla. Very welcoming and nice conversation
