    $50 handmade lei
    Lauren V.

    Found this place on Yelp and almost missed it on my maps, it's very lowkey. I called 10 minutes before closing and the ladies very quickly made a lei with the colors I asked for. Absolutely would recommend!

    Beautiful double orchid graduation lei in school colors. So thrilled with how it turned out!!!

    I graduated last month and got my lei po'o from Hi'iaka Florist! I reached out one week before my graduation, unsure if my order could be done. I inquired on facebook and immediately got a response back asking me to call to place the order. I sent over a reference photo of what I wanted along with my measurements and picked up my lei the following week! I got exactly what I wanted and was extremely happy with the final result I was quoted $95 for the lei po'o and it was $103.20 after tax. The freshness and quality of the lei was amazing and worth it. This was an extremely easy process and I would recommend anyone to get their leis here for their special occasion.

    Discovered Hi'iaka Florist (Isha) through Yelp and by a high recommendation via my hula sister, Tiffany. Ordered 7 different lei from Isha, and requested delivery of the lei. All seven lei were well crafted and beautiful! I couldn't have been happier! I will definitely be ordering from Isha again as she and her company exceeded all expectations!

    I've ordered graduation leis from Hi'iaka several time over the past years and the service, quality and cost are always good. During graduation season, it is always best to call and place your order. This most recent experience went a little sideways before Isha (the owner) got everything straightened out. I originally placed the order online for pick-up but for some reason, it processed as a shipped order and I was charged an extra $15. I emailed back and forth with Isha and I think she kept getting me mixed up with her other orders because she would ask me the same question over and over again. I finally tried calling and left a message. She responded within a couple of days and got everything fixed. Overall, this florist is still a four stars for me and I highly recommend the leis made here.

    Service: 1000/10 sweetest lady! She was able to finish my Lei po'o for my graduation on time and even allowed us purchase a last minute lei. Selection: she is so knowledgeable and has great selection of flowers and styles for leis. She even was the first to make kukui nut leis to be sold at CSUEB's student store. She also participated in Merrie Monarch as a florist which is so cool!! Value: 100/10!! I really wanted to support a Hawaiian owned florist for my Lei and I'm so happy I was able to cross paths with Aunty. Please support her!

    Mera baby loved her mama's beautiful crown. It was perfect.

    My sister just graduated with honors from UCSF's MPEN Nursing Master of Science Degree and I knew an occasion and accomplishment of this nature deserved some gorgeous and authentic leis. I am from Oregon so I had zero idea where to start but found Isha on Yelp and I am so glad we did. She was so kind, accommodating, knowledgeable, and super easy to work with. I picked the flowers up the day of the ceremony from her home business which was super close to my sisters house (bonus)! My sister was stunning in the beautiful lei and flower crown. She stood out in the sea of graduates and helped us identify her when she was about to walk as there wasn't a known order. We sat up top and had a Birds Eye view and we could spot her immediately. Her crown and lei stood out so we always knew where she was. She loved her arrangements and every single photo was gorgeous! I will order again and again for all special occasions. Do yourself a favor and order asap to make any occasion elevated!

    Friendly and accommodating with a last minute request! The leis were so beautiful and a perfect addition for our wedding anniversary. They will absolutely last you more than one use if you take care of them. Pick up was easy as well! Highly recommend

    This graduation of two grandchildren was a couple of years ago. Today we had two more graduates and I wouldn't go anywhere else for the leis.

    Isha was wonderful to work with. I made a last minute order & she was able to fulfill my request. As someone from Hawaii I was very happy to find a florist in San Francisco area that did such a beautiful job making leis an Hawaiian arrangements. She also made it very convenient for me to make an order & pay while I was still in Hawaii and then come pick it up the very next day. I wouldn't hesitate to use her again. Thank you Isha!!

    I called on a Wednesday to order a lei for pickup on Friday, which isn't a lot of time, but Isha made it work!

    Wow. I am very disappointed with my flowers. I had ordered these flowers to congratulate a friend…read moreon her promotion and I am extremely embarrassed at what she received. I had specifically ordered from Diosa because of how beautiful and whimsical the floral designs were on their Instagram and their website. I had even paid the extra delivery fee to get this delivered outside their service area because I was happy to support this small business! But what I got was a sad average looking floral arrangement that I could have gotten from a grocery store (see picture). This is certainly not the value of a $135 arrangement that is depicted on their website. Additionally, their website says that they include a hand written card. I wasn't expecting an actual big folded card with envelope, but at the very least I expected it on a blank notecard?I certainly wasn't not expecting the note to be on their business flyer which I find to be a little tactless, considering how I emphasized that these were exciting congratulatory flowers being sent to a professional office when placing my order with them over phone. I even asked if the medium was a good size to send since the large vase arrangement looked really huge on the website. And they assured me that the arrangement would be about 1.5/2 feet tall. As you can see from my photo this was not even 1 foot tall. I would have gladly paid for the large vase arrangement if it meant a more impressive floral arrangement. But sadly I don't think I would have gotten anything better if I ordered the large vase arrangement. I understand that flowers are seasonal and I wasn't going to get exactly what they have on their website. But the arrangement I received isn't even in the same realm of the arrangements on their site and Instagram. I will say their customer service was good and they were able to deliver. But I definitely won't be ordering from here again. Total bummer since I was really hoping to support them again in the future.

    The Diosa team is so talented and absolutely nailed the bright & cheerful aesthetic we wanted!

    Very unfortunate experience. I was completely ghosted by this business…read more I was looking to order a bridal bouquet for my wedding and I spoke with someone at the shop on May 4. He was very kind. They said they could do a bridal bouquet for me. They offered for me to text an image of the bouquet I would want and I just never heard back. Completely ghosted even after I called numerous times to follow up and texted to follow up. No one ever answered the phone again when I tried to call.

I called because I wanted to place an order directly over the phone. The guy who answered told me to just use the website. Fair enough. But when I asked, "Well, since I already have you on the phone, can I just order through you?" he said yes... just to call back in a few hours because he was busy. Totally understandable, it's Mother's Day weekend. Florists are basically fighting for their lives that weekend if it wasn't Valentine's Day. So I made sure to call back later, I live in Hawaii now and there's a time difference. I call back, and this time I get, "Ah, yes, I remember, not right now, I'll call you back." I explained I'm calling from out of state and just wanted to make sure I could get an order in before closing. He reassured me he understood. Did he take my number? No. Did he call me back? Also no. Honestly, I'm not even mad about them being busy, I completely get it. I'm just impressed by the confidence of a callback without collecting literally any contact information. That's elite-level optimism. Hopefully the flowers are better organized than the ordering process.
