Diva - The Italian Restaurant

This is one of the best outlets of Delhi if you want to have authentic Italian cuisine. The manager Mr.Tomar is one of the best representatives out there having the perfect knowledge of everything. His recommendations made my day! Will definitely recommend this spot!! Cheers team DIVA.

Diva is now an over 20 year old Italian restaurant, Repeated this place after maybe 7 years or so. Remembering my previous visit and this visit, the restaurant has kept quality, presentation taste and service absolutely consistent, that's the hall mark of a quality restaurant. Very selective menu and good choice of wines. Great place to celebrate special occasions.

Diva's menu is 'Italian', but with lots of fusion and many creative flourishes, so don't expect authenticity. We were here for lunch with family and friends, and ordered three starters to share: roasted Brie with rocket; mushroom, honey and goat's cheese bruschetta, and suppli. I had a John Dory with an olive crust and vegetable 'noodles' as a main course, and had a taste of my daughter's pork belly with carrot purée and green beans. All were delicious, though just a little too heavy in the butter. So heavy, in fact, that none of us had space for dessert and made do with coffee. Excellent food and very good service, definitely a place to frequent.

staff was really pretentious which I don’t enjoy as warmth and professionalism goes way further than arrogance and laziness. The food was fine though. Ambience was OK.

This outlet is a slice right out of a modern and chic hotel. It's like a block was taken out and placed here. As you sit here, you automatically desire a fine dine experience and personalised service. Well regarding service and presentation the place does not disappoint you at all. The menu will intrigue you and tempt you to try something new. Probably I ordered all the wrong dishes because the food looked great but tasted very average. The only thing I liked was the dessert. Bon Appetit

Dilapidated interiors. Great service. Pathetic food. Diva was at one time one of my favourite restaurants in the city. Authentic Italian fare done simply but well, really well. Sadly, the quality of food has gone down the drain. We ordered seared scollops for starters, they weren't available. Instead, we ordered the salmon tartar. It has no flavours except salt. Couldn't see the salmon, couldn't taste it and it sat on a soggy piece of bread. Next up was the pizza Bianca. I specifically asked for arugula to be a part of the topping. It was missing. The base wasn't thin. Wasn't thick. It wasn't crispy, was more like a sad roti done wrong. I could even taste raw flour. I asked for prosciutto on the side and was advised no, as the pizza with all the cheese is already too salty. Funny, I had to ask for extra salt as the pizza lacked seasoning. For mains, I ordered pork ribs. I must have been able to extract less than 50 grams of meat from them. Pathetic cuts of meat and completely devoid of flavour. Boiled meat, without the meat, with sauce. My partner ordered chicken roulard, which was passable and could have done by being finished with a quick sear in a pan, but then for that you need a chef. I've saved the best for the last. The tiramisu was excellent and so were the flavoured gins. Our bill for this rather sad, flavour less, soulless meal came to a princely Rs. 11,000 Not going back any time soon.

OG Italian powerhouse. Have always loved the food at diva. As Close to authentic Italian you can get in the city. Every time I eat here, there’s something new. Breads are superb.

Brilliant restaurant. Very different flavours from the usual spicy taste of Delhi/India restaurants. My Calcutta curry had a very tastefully done, mild coconut milk flavour and a very good presentation of the dish. The atmosphere was calm, the decor very tastefully done and the staff very polite and knowledgeable. The restaurant made such a welcome and soothing change from the usual fare of food. Very highly recommended.
