    The food was so flavorful and the waitstaff was very polite/helpful. I had a saag dish, ordered it medium spicy and it was perfect! The naan with coconut was also excellent. I was stuffed and had plenty of leftovers.

    We went dinner on Father's Day. We were enjoying our meal when one of the staff members started sweeping the floor right next to our table. It was kind of awkward. Additionally when we got our check the man delivering the check kept on standing right behind the person paying for the meal and even asked what their name meant. We are unsure whether not he was trying to make small talk or make sure if we were paying a tip.

    My wife and I regularly go to Diva for dinner, and have never been disappointed with our night out. The staff is friendly and attentive, and the food is delicious!

    Always enjoy this terrific restaurant! We went to India, and I tell you the food here is as good as any that we had in India. It is consistently delicious. We love the dinner for two, either vegetarian or the Royal Diva. The staff is always pleasant and attentive. It's great value for the money. Happy eating!

    Chose to go back to Diva for Valentine's Day, it was where we went for our first date and since we were going to be in Davis Sq. for a show that night, it was the perfect choice. Food is always excellent and they have great cocktails. Our waiter was attentive and courteous.
