    Green chile wet burrito
    Laura D.

    I have been going to Diana's for years, and I have loved it for years. My favorite go-to is the green chile wet burrito with beef, rice and beans inside. It never disappoints. It is the right amount of spicy and savory deliciousness that my soul needs every few weeks. I have had other dishes and I am never disappointed. The carne asada burrito was one of my number 1 cravings when I was pregnant with both of my kids. Sometimes, the wait can be a bit long depending on the crowd, but it can be expedited if you order ahead for pick up. I hope Diana's is around forever because it is an absolute treat.

    Dining area

    It makes me a little sad to write this review because this place is truly an institution in the city I grew up in. I remember coming here when I was young and it was always bustling with people, you could smell the masa and the comida before you hit the door. Because of those memories, I've always had a soft spot for this place and really want to see it do well. That said, since COVID, things seem to have gone downhill. I completely understand that change is inevitable, and sometimes change can be for the better...but in this case, it unfortunately feels like the opposite. This review is less about the food and more about the overall experience, ambiance, and how the place makes you feel. The food itself is still good. I've been here twice this month, and everything I ordered was tasty and consistent with the quality they've always been known for. However, the atmosphere has changed dramatically. The ordering line setup is awkward, the cashiers are young and come across as unfriendly and not very welcoming, and while the menu items haven't really changed, the signage has--several times--and keeps getting smaller, which feels odd and confusing. There was nothing wrong about the old larger font menu. The dining area is another big issue. The use of six-foot folding tables gives the space no warmth at all. It feels sterile and cold...almost like a mess hall...rather than a place you want to sit and enjoy a meal. During my most recent visit, things were even worse. There was nowhere to sit because every table was piled with dirty dishes and leftover food. The trash cans were completely full and overflowing, which clearly contributed to the problem. I'm not sure what's going on behind the scenes, but it feels like there's a lack of supervision or management--someone who really cares and properly trains and supports the team. I truly wish this place the best. It has so much history and potential, and there's always another day to turn things around. I really hope they do.

    Original burrito

    First time stopping here after work. I been out here in cali for 23 years and past here many times. Ok pulled into their parking lot, walked in and there was no line the place was practically empty. Only three other people here. It looked really clean and kind of bland. No real comfortable restaurant look. So I grabbed some taco size flour tortillas for home. They were really dry when I used them. Now back to the burrito I ordered. I liked at the menu for a minute I told the cashier it was my first time there and she said take your time. I wanted a wet burrito and she suggested the original. I said sure she explained what was in it and I wanted green sauce. The wait wasn't long. I grabbed my order headed home for dinner and took it out of the bag and looked in the container it came in after I opened it and it was swimming in green sauce it was way to much sauce for me and was kind of bland. They also threw some lettuce in there some where. I took the couple chip it came with and threw them in there to help soak up some of the sauce and dug in. It was ok but definitely not for me. It might be good for you but I'll pass. I have a couple good spots local that are my goto. At least I tried.

    Food, table, drink.

    Servers are rude, unwelcoming, and inconsiderate, consistently being a nuisance environmentally, dragging loud disruptive chairs across the floors in such a cringing manner. Food is good however again- servers are rude and stingy with salsas (only allowing 2 per customer!?!) Note to self, salsa are watered down. Besides bad customer service, their foods are deliciously hot and well seasoned. Hopefully in future references their catering service is improved environmental-wise.

    This #10 beef and potatoes with a little beans
    FD Mack D.

    Where is the beef and potatoes this is all beans? This is my $19 meal with a coffee wtf at least the coffee was good my #10 burrito just tragically sad

    Rubber beef potatoe..
    Gary L.

    The food was awful today .. I beef and potatoe with rice and beans.. beef was very rubbery so I tossed them out !!! Eat the beans and rice only.. and the proportions are small now.. they serve you like a kid.. omg! I told them then they gave me a bigger plate.. but they keep on doing it...and I hate to complain...they should already know how to serve! But I see alot of new people working so I get it! Hopefully manager trains them well.. and if you ask for extra salsa they charge 50 cent lol omg but not everyone.. only some workers well do that...I've been coming here since the 90s.. I dont want to give up on them.. but sometimes you gotta say to yourself enough is enough...

    Green Chile Verde Wet Burrito  Meat in every bite. I asked for extra salsa and it was free.

    Green Chile Verde Wet Burrito Meat in every bite. I asked for extra salsa and it was free. This is the only item I come here for, for the past 40 years. So delish! Highly recommended. I usually call for pick up so that I'm not waiting.

The vibe was really off. The place is nice and clean and appealing but there was no music playing. They had on naked and afraid and some news on their TVs. We were the only people there so the place was so quiet and boring. The lady was very polite, but it just wasn't a "fun environment".

Food- I had the fish taco which was good, the calamari was very chewy and not that good, and the enchiladas were decent Service - Service was good (flys were coming in tho so I think they should keep the door closed) Ambiance- lacking. They need some fun music and give me a reason to order some beer and hangout more. I don't really see this as anything other than a takeout place unless they extend their hours and improve the vibe.

We asked if they had any plant-based or vegan options. They only sold burgers however the lady that helped us was very sweet, polite, and kind. She told what they had and what we could order inside instead. We walked in and the gentleman named Oscar G. cashed us out. He was also very friendly! Very professional and knowledgeable about the menu and non-dairy items. Provided us with what we needed right away, the container for the salsa and brought out fresh ones for me. Very nice guy. The food came out right away. The portions were big in my opinion. The prices were decent, the portion was great, and best of all the service was good. Their self-serve condiments was a PLUS! I've been to a lot of taco spots and these were by far the freshest and crispiest cucumbers, fresh cold salsa, onions and cilantro was also fresh. The food was good and filled us up. It was simple but fulfilling. Will definitely be back and highly recommend it. There are plenty of indoor and outdoor seats as well.

This place was in the complex I was shopping…read morein so I popped on over based on the recommendation from the employee helping me at a store near by. I have been seeing them on my feed but for some reason haven't stopped in yet. As a solo diner I felt pleasantly welcomed as I walked it. The sweet gal behind the counter was very friendly and engaging when I asked her questions seeing it was my first time here. I chose the two taco combo, carne asada was my meat of choice. The two other options were shrimp and chicken. The combo comes with chips and a drink along with my choice of salsa. I have to tell you I was pretty impressed with my tacos. They were loaded with meat; which was really tasty. They had cilantro and onion and avocado. The chips were fresh and also very good. I liked the salsa as well. The two gals working the counter and who brought my food were so sweet. She even came back to ask if I needed anything and gave me extra salsa. They have numerous TVs (got to catch some of the Dodger game. ) in there and they do so alcohol as well. I will definitely be back. This was a very nice solo lunch experience..

After waiting about 10 minutes, I went to the counter, and it took even longer before an employee asked for my name. It turned out my order had been sitting there for over 20 minutes while takeout orders were being prioritized. When they finally handed me my food, it was still in a bag even though my order was for dine-in, and I had to remind them to give me my drinks. They also forgot to include salsa for the chips. What really frustrated me was being told that next time I should just go to the counter after ordering at the kiosk. As a first-time customer, how was I supposed to know that? If the kiosk orders aren't being monitored, that's something the restaurant should address--not something customers should have to figure out on their own. After this experience, there won't be a next time.
