Diwan has become one of my favorite spots because of both the food and the people. The atmosphere is warm the moment you walk in — everyone here brings their own energy that makes the experience feel personal and genuine.
Sam brings humor, humility, and real passion to everything he does. You can taste the care and skill in every dish. He leads with fairness, and it shows in how smoothly everything runs.
Tikka has such a kind, uplifting presence. She’s attentive, thoughtful, and always makes sure guests feel taken care of. Her energy adds so much warmth to the whole experience.
Meg greets you with a smile that immediately makes you feel welcome. She has a natural grace in the way she manages the front — professional, calm, and always on point.
Ali is consistently sweet, respectful, and quick to help. He pays attention without ever hovering, and it makes dining here feel effortless.
And the food? Always rich, flavorful, and made with intention. Portions are huge and very affordable.
Diwan isn’t just a restaurant — it’s a place where good food and good people come together. Highly recommend.

I recently had the chance to try some truly outstanding biryani, and it was an absolute treat. The rice was perfectly cooked—light, fluffy, and each grain beautifully separated, carrying the rich aroma of well-balanced spices. The chicken was tender, juicy, and full of flavor, clearly marinated with care and cooked just right.
The layering was what impressed me most. Each spoonful offered a new depth of flavor, from the sweetness of the caramelized onions to the gentle touch of saffron. It wasn’t greasy, and the spice level was ideal—enough to add a pleasant kick without overshadowing the natural taste of the ingredients.
Overall, this biryani was comfort food at its best, and I’d highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys a thoughtfully crafted, traditional dish made with genuine expertise.

Fantastic hole in the wall with incredibly fast and delicious food at an unbelievable price for this day and age. My husband and I ordered the Chicken Biryani, chicken over rice, and the goat karahi. We also enjoyed some chai. Always fun to find such a great small business. We’ll be glad to come back or even order take out one day (this would make incredible takeout!)
Super yummy biryani.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A truly special place.
