Cute place, food was good but not spectacular. We chose three dishes and the paella was cold. Nice wine list. Unfortunately we were seated right next to the band and it was very loud. Probably return, but will ask to be seated elsewhere. We had reservations and recommend it, it was crowded on Friday night.

Weird place — it almost feels like they don’t want your business. The first time my wife and I stopped by for a glass of wine on a Saturday in August around 10:20 PM, the band was still playing, but the bartender refused to serve us, saying they were closing soon — even though their official hours show they’re open until 11 PM. The second time, three of us came in for dinner on TTU Parents Night Saturday in October. The restaurant was half empty, yet we were turned away again, this time because they were “only accepting guests with reservations.” There’s no mention of that policy anywhere on their website. Definitely won’t be trying again.

if you’re looking for an out-of-texas experience with five-star hospitality, la diosa is the destination for you. i received wonderful service and recommendations from my bartender and the broiled spanish sardines were exactly what i needed for an early dinner for one. bring friends and families here for tapas and wine to share for the best afternoon or evening. i will be returning!

A fantastic and quite spot to have a great experience. The service was excellent and the food was wonderful. The risotto is so delicious. Try the sangria it adds to the atmosphere.

Wow and oh wow. What a wonderfully unexpected surprise while in town this spot is. Glad we found this artistic, quaint space and thrilled that we explored and shared the offerings family style. The meatballs were a huge hit, as were the white beans. We all agreed it seemed like they forgot to add any salt to the sardines, but the herbal flavors were nice. Fair warning that the peppers are considerably more heat than similar shishito dishes, but still good. Perhaps the nicest surprise was the wine that we ordered relative to its price point…win win. Will definitely be back if I can. Hand made offerings abound. PS- it would be nice to have pulpa on the menu for the deep Spanish vibe! Great service all the way around.

This place is a gem. Very quaint and eclectic atmosphere. Service is always good, they bring the tapas one at a time to not rush you through this culinary experience. Each tapa plate is curated with such wonderful spices and flavors. Also, good wine selections with something for everyone regarding price range. We enjoy the calm dining experience.
Awesome food! Awesome atmosphere! Awesome service!!! We enjoyed everything about our visit. We will definitely come back.

Unique lovely quiet. We were here 21 years ago when they opened; still a class act from the wine, paintings, tapas, comfy chairs to the service and music. We we had a La Diosa back home

100000% worth it! Im not a fan of expensive restaurants in my opinion they are more for show, making the food pretty vs the food being unique & delicious but this place THIS PLACE! Is worth every single penny. We had a queso dip I can't remember the name (not pictured) and it sent my taste buds into a frenzy as soon as this deliciousness grazed my tongue. Have you ever had food that made you break out in a smile because it's eye rolling good? That's exactly what this queso did. It was only up from here too. We had the Barcelona pizza and it is unlike any pizza you'll taste anywhere else in LBK. We also had their special I can't remember what it was called but it came with saffron rice, shrimp and lamb.. the lamb was 🥴🤤. And as if this all was not enough the lighting & art were a whole vibe. Our waiter I can't remember his name (tall guy with long hair and a beard) but he's been my waiter every time I've gone and he's always so helpful, patient and willing to explain/help you with the menu especially the first time you go bc the menu is different than your typical restaurant in lbk and he never makes you feel silly for not understanding it or having questions. Absolutely love this place.

We had a great evening at La Diosa Cellars! The vibe is funky and artsy, with colorful eclectic decor, comfy chairs, and live music that perfectly matched the casual, lively atmosphere. The service was friendly and attentive even with a full house. We tried a variety of dishes and drinks—standouts included the sparkling sangrias (refreshing and not too sweet), the flatbread (fresh, with lots of basil and tomato), and the Angelina and Lorena tapas, both full of flavor and beautifully presented. Portions were generous—perfect for sharing and making the meal feel like a real experience. The empanadas were a table favorite, and the starters came out quickly. We also loved that there was live music, with an acoustic set that made conversation easy while still setting the mood. Prices are fair for the quality, and the small cover charge for music is absolutely worth it for the atmosphere. This is a must-visit spot if you like a relaxed, unique setting with creative food and drinks—perfect for a fun night out in Lubbock!
