DIOSA - Tomahawk - New Mexican Cuisine Near Me - Downey, California

Diosa is a new trendy spot here in Downey. So after visiting 3 different times, I think I am ready to give an honest, unbiased review! The good: The place is real nice! Decor and ambiance are top notch! Fancy, yet not over the top! Everyone is super nice and it seems they are truly happy to be at work! Drinks where delicious! Additionally, the presentation on drinks and food was a definitely 10/10! I love that you can make a reservation! The so/so: Food is a solid 7/10! Main dish is 8/10, sides are not that flavorful! I had the Mar y Tierra 7.5! Meat was tender, scallops lacked flavor. I had the Enchiladas Poblanas solid 8! Sides did not taste good at all! Pollo Al pastor solid 8.5! Again sided not flavorful! The bad: This one is a hard one because I know the waiter/waitresses are trying but man for the prices, service stinks! It's not the staff, it's just that they are doing so many different things that they don't provide the service a high end restaurant should be providing! Waiting 15-20 for a drink is unacceptable! A few times took me 10min just to located my waiter. Now, I came 2 different times in 3 different days! A Wednesday, Friday and a Saturday. All 3 times service was 2/10! Lastly, plates do not come out all together! They explain this to you at the beginning. I was done with it my plate before the others in my group had received their good! Don't like this!! If I am going to share a dinner, we should all eat at the same time! Definitely worth a try! Still do recommend it! For sure RSVP or else expect a long wait! Definitely the new it place in Downey. read more

Had the privilege of going to opening night and wow. Food was incredible, cocktails are on point and the decor and vibe in the restaurant is unmatched. Feels like you are in a multi million dollar mansion dinner party. Highly recommend. Newest spot in SoCal read more

DIOSA - Old fashioned cocktail - New Mexican Cuisine Near Me - Downey, California

Family and I came here on Sunday at 4:30pm because we wanted to have an earlier dinner before a show at the Downey Theatre at 6pm. The restaurant is SO beautiful. I was pleasantly surprised that they had a kids menu. There were a total of four adults and two kids and every single one of us loved our meals. The waiter (I don't remember his name but he had red framed glasses) was EXCELLENT and made us feel welcome. Yes, the food is on the pricier side, but it was delicious and the portions were very generous. The relaxed ambiance and the beauty of the restaurant instantly transfixed our boys (age 5 and 6) and we had the most pleasant family dinner. Even the restrooms were beautiful. I am definitely looking forward to coming back for drinks with girlfriends, or date night with hubby. read more

I had the best Tacos I've ever had at a high end restaurant. Our server Dadid R was one of the best servers my wife and I ever had. The Plata o plomo is always good too. I've been here roughly 5 times, this is the 1st time I was inclined to leave a review because of David. And the food too ;-) read more

Decided to visit the new place in town with 7 people. We didn't realize it would be a bit more upscale in terms of the dress code, but luckily we were already dressed up. When we drove by, we noticed a bunch of cars waiting for the valet. We decided to get reservations as it looked pretty full. We had resverations at 7:45PM and managed to get in around 8PM. Luckily we added ourselves on there because they stopped taking reservations after that. The ambiance of the restaurant is great! Great music and great vibes. They have girls pushing a margarita cart around along with a Tequila cart. We managed to try both and the margaritas were refreshing. Food: Ahi Tuna Tower 5/5: Tuna was fresh and the cilantro crema mixed in was great. Pollo Al Pastor 3/5: Two big chicken skewers that had great flavor, but it was sort of dry. If it was a bit moister, def would be a lot better. DIOSA Guacamole 5/5: Balanced flavor and pretty large to share Steak Empanadas 5/5: The skirt steak inside was super tender and the cilantro creama mix was delicious. **Highly recommend** Ribeye Parilla 5/5: Grilled medium rare to perfection. It was seasoned well and was a hit at the table. 16oz of steak, our table couldn't finish 2. Trios of Salsa 5/5: 3 different salsas with different spices. Ranges from habenero, serrano, and tomatillo. Great addition to put on top of the empanadas. We wanted to try their Churros but unfortunately, the kitchen wasn't able to keep up with the orders. I will definitely recommend this restaurant to friends and will be back. Be sure to get MICHAEL as your server as he took great care of us. We'll be back for him. read more

Priscela was the best bartender ever ! Great drinks awesome service and good vibes ! She's awesome !

Beautiful atmosphere with friendly staff. I had the Ceasars salad with flat skit steak so yummy and filling. Our server Luis was on it. He took real good care of us. We were here celebrating a birthday, and they made the birthday girl feel really special. I highly recommend this place. The manager Priscilla was very friendly and personable. We will be back for sure. read more

read a bunch of bad reviews. mostly because of the service. yes in the beginning, we did wait a while to get our drink order so we decided to give them our food order when our waiter came. the minute you enter, the ambiance makes you feel like you're at a miami, florida restaurant or in LA. the ambience didn't feel like the other restaurants in the city of downey. the drinks were a lil light on alcohol- but still well crafted. the tomahawk and sides were prepared really well. yes it's pricey but well worth it. i'm really glad we came to celebrate my friends birthday here. it's really a perfect setting for a celebration. read more

I'm shocked by any reviews less than 4 stars. The service and food were superb. We came to celebrate my husband's birthday and received great service from the moment we entered the restaurant.

David the server at the bar is the friendliest guy I know and on point with his quality of service. Makes the experience at Diosa even better. My favorite dishes here are the coco salmon and the guava cheesecake. When I ever I drive by at night I just go for cofeee and cheesecake at the bar. If you haven't tried it yet. You got to stop by.

Awful service; driving 35min to this place and having a reservation we still waited 25min later, just to wait for water 30 min then wait another hour for cocktails. Our waiter was rude had no patience and attended to bigger parties then our part of 4. It was too loud and too crowded. For the prices on this menu I would have expected more classier service. This place is trash. People say oh they are understaff like it's an excuse to me rude and unprofessional. Rather than apologizing for the 1.5 hour for a crap over price drink they give us attitude and make us wait longer. read more

Diosa embodies a beautiful ambiance, aesthetically pleasing dining experience. There were five of us who went on a Sunday afternoon to celebrate a birthday. The cocktails are absolutely delicious! I had 2 watermelon paleta drinks... OMG , I wanted more but I didn't want to get drunk. We all loved our food, the ingredients were fresh. Now let's get to the dessert, i'm sorry to report that it was not good .. mind you we paid $40 for the Churros Foster. They make it tableside. The churros tasted old and hard . Don't waste your money on this. Also one last thing , our waiter was awesome , informative and attentive but we would have liked to been spoken to in english, when we got seated he kept rambling on in Spanish and only one person in our group understood. It was awkward at first but when we asked him for our order in English he then figured out we didn't understand him . He then changed to English and we appreciated it. Overall I highly recommend Diosa and will be coming back !! read more

My wife went to this location and they seemed to have no sense of purpose on bringing the food out fast and efficiently. They took forever on getting the food to the table, to the point where we had to have the food packed once we got it. Don't recommend to go here if you are looking to eat your food nice and hot and if you have a life where you do multiple things in the day! read more

If you really want great tasting Mexican food DO NOT come here. Instead try DAMIAN in the Arts District. MUST MAKE RESERVATIONS. We got there on opening day. We were the first ones to come in, beautiful decor Tulum-ish vibes, great for the IG "influencer, foodie, hype" ONLY. 1 for the decor!!! Anyway, I'm not sure if it's because we were the first customers to come in there but, their food is beyond flavorless. We order the following: -Pollo Al Pastor and it had no flavor 2/10. It's like it was smothered with "El Pato Sauce" on it, charro beans were good, the rice was no bueno. -The Octopus 3/10 was grilled perfectly but again no flavor. -The empanadas were a 3/10. -The shrimp or fish taco we ordered came in 15-20 minutes late 4/10. (Plate was forgotten or lost) -queso fundido 2-10 -The sea bass was what I think their best dish 6-10. -Service was not up to par. The waitress or the chef forgot one of our plates. We had to continuously try to find our waitress. Over all a 4/10 for this place. I'll just come in for drinks as a last minute thing or I don't have any plans. This place will become the new hang out for the DOWNEY Real Estate agents, or a hype IG/TikTok photo spot. Their decor and drinks here are Ok. A mix of Javier's, Castaway, Kateen, Meza and all other similar spots but much closer to you for the same price lmao. You'll love this place if your palate is not very extensive and or just like plain tasteless food. Raylon gave us his card and assured us he can have a table ready next time we come in. After that experience l'm not so sure we will be coming back in. Even after months the place opened a few of my friends have gone and have said the same thing. Please DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY HERE!!! DON'T BELIEVE THE HYPE. read more

I finally got to go to Diosa Restaurant, I waited for months before I made first visit to Diosa, I know it's takes time get things going the right way for a restaurant. The Talum Ambiance appears and Dj playing great deep house music was amazing. We had reservations at 7 pm we got seated by 7:10 pm, we waited about 20 minutes before the waitress to acknowledges us after she walking by us over 6 times or more, she finally took our drinks order, we got our drinks about 20 minutes later, the presentation of the drinks beautiful, the only thing they gave me the wrong whiskey for my old fashion drink. We finally got to order our food after a hour pass, the food took about 25 minutes I understand it's Saturday busy day for the kitchen, the presentation of the food looked great and the food was delicious. I was very disappointed with the service, our waitress never came over to our table to ask us if we needed more drinks, we had to flag her down to get her attention to order more cocktails drinks and water, the bartender got me the correct whisky Makers Mark whiskey, our second drinks came to our table, we were done with our dinner, no one bothered to pick up the dirty dishes from our table, our waitress came to our table after we haven't seen her for 15 minutes, she picked up Menus from our table, she didn't even pick up the dirty dishes of our table, 10 minutes later I flagged down one of the employees to please remove the dirty dishes of our table, we wanted to order more drinks but our waitress was no where to be found, the waitress finally came to our table and we asked for our bill, the billing process took over 15 minutes, we still tipped our waitress 20% We spent 3 hours in the restaurant, I wish we could've had more cocktails, we only had 2 each. Overall the restaurant is amazing beautiful, just need to work on service, i know i will be go back again, I love dining out, I don't care about the prices of food or drinks as longest I get good services, you will have a happy customer. read more

The short version: as long as you aren't pressed for time and can handle the painfully slow service, go for the yummy drinks in the nice room and skip the ridiculously over-priced food. Pros: very stylish and great looking room; excellent cocktails and drink selection overall; friendly staff Cons: painfully slow service even when they weren't busy (12:30 reservation on a Sunday, we weren't seated until almost 1pm even though there were empty seats, took forever in between visits by waitress to get drink order, then food order, then bringing food, then following up with drink refills and dessert, and eventually to get check); food was EXTREMELY overpriced (it tasted fine, but portion sizes for $120+ share dish were small for 2 people). read more

The ambience is very high energy, servers were great and attentive. The drinks were tasty and beautiful but weak. The decor is a bit too much. The amount of chandeliers screams for attention but does not feel like the classy establishment the designers likely imagined. Food was mediocre at best. So disappointed that Diosa couldn't serve better quality food. We ordered the sea bass tiradito, Mexican street corn, and carnitas. The tiradito tasted like old limes - can't squeeze fresh limes for customers??? The Mexican street corn was okay, could've used a bit of a kick. The carnitas were the best part of the meal but were still underwhelming. They served this with green rice which was terrible. The carnitas themselves were probably a 3/5. If you can't make great ones in house, outsource from a local shop. There's so many in LA. If I make it back I will stick to the drinks menu. Three stars for the service though! The front of the house employees are great! read more

Ok, so I was very excited to dine here as I'd been watching it get built and it looked gorgeous. Came on a Sunday evening for a girls night. Definitely a beautiful place, staff was amazing. From the front desk to the wait staff, bartenders and manager, top notch friendly and attentive. Our waitress was the sweetest. Drinks were delicious and we ordered all the appetizers and each one was pretty tasty and also two entrees. Only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is because it's ridiculously priced. I'm not poor but I'm not rich either and so this place will have to be reserved for a once a year treat. Like I said, the food we ate was tasty but nothing to warrant those prices. Like the prices are wild. Let's just say Mastros is cheaper lol. If prices were more reasonable I would definitely make this a monthly spot. ***the margarita cart was good, we liked not having to wait for one from server and the girls with pretty glittery dresses were adorable but the cart needs to be upgraded. It looked super cheap. They have better gold trimmed ones at Target or Walmart, which is where I got my gold bar cart from. read more

Beautiful new restaurant with an upbeat vibe. The food and margaritas were delicious, though we would have liked some vegan food options for the vegan in our party. Service was top-notch! The decor makes it among the classiest restaurants in Downey. I'm sure it will attract both Downey residents and diners from neighboring cities looking to celebrate special occasions. The beautiful and huge bar is the focal feature of the restaurant, and I expect it to turn into a social hot-spot. It is pricey, but we needed a high-end restaurant in Downey. I hope that as they figure out diners' food preferences, they expand their menu to include fresh fish and more steak options. They had a DJ playing modern music which may be too loud for some diners who prefer a quiet atmosphere, but it definitely added to a hip vibe. Overall, I encourage curious diners to go there to experience it for themselves, and to support the ownership for investing what is obviously a major financial investment. I hope we support them to make Diosa a success. I wish them well and thank them for choosing to build in Downey! read more
