“ Amazing @Dia Delicacy! From the moment you walk in, you can feel the love and care that’s gone into every detail — from the cozy vibe to the delicious food. Everything we have ever had was full of flavor and made with heart. You can really tell how much passion goes into the kitchen. The whole experience just feels special. It’s more than just a great meal - it’s a place built with soul. ”
“ I went here to celebrate a small special occasion and felt so welcomed from the moment I walked in. The biriyani was hands down the best I’ve had outside of India, absolutely packed with flavor and clearly made by someone who loves what they do. I would love to try more dishes. Not to be missed if you like Indian cuisine. ”
“ This little café is run by a lovely lady who makes all the food herself. Everything tastes fresh and homemade, just like a warm meal at home. You can feel the care she puts into every dish. It’s a cozy place that makes you want to come back again and again. ”
“ The chicken today was absolutely delicious! You really eat with your eyes first — beautifully presented and perfectly seasoned. You can tell it’s a family recipe, passed down from Dia’s mother: full of comfort and tradition. A heartfelt, authentic dish that truly stands out ”
“ Stumbled upon this charming spot in Genève and absolutely loved it! The South Asian/Indian ethnic vibe is tastefully done, and the food has that soul-satisfying, homemade taste,personally prepared by Dia herself. Dia, the lovely proprietress, welcomed us with warmth, a kind smile, and polite service. Highly recommended for the food, ambience, and heartfelt hospitality. Loved every bit of it! Will return again! ”
“ We visited Dia’s Delicacy during our trip to Geneva. We found the food to be authentic—I had the chicken Razela, which was as good as any you’d find in a top restaurant in Mumbai. The vegetarian dish (paneer kadai) was tasty as well. The quality of the food was fresh and flavorful. We’re so glad that, in recent years, as we travel around Europe, we are coming across places like Dia’s that serve authentic Indian dishes—going beyond the usual thick red gravy and providing a truly genuine experience. All the best! (P.S. I don’t have pictures of the dishes as they were enjoyed so quickly!) ”
“ Just had a amazing curry turned up a hour before closing time , I am vegetarian she ran out of veggie curry before i arrived but she was able to put another veggie type of curry together especially for me which tastes amazing , with some rice and cabbage which also tastes amazing , which is very much appreciated . It was nice and warm but there was flavour but not to spicy but just enough. Size wise is perfect. Highly recommend going to this place ”
“ As an Indian foodie, I cannot emphasise enough how authentic Dia’s dishes are. Her food is like a taste of home - limited options but sooo delicious with high quality ingredients catering to the health conscious. Loved the dal, bhindi, chai and not photographed Kothimbir Wadi (on the house thank you Dia for making my day on Ganesh Chaturthi ) and Mint Ricotta cake. Apart from the food, the attention to small details on decor really feels like being transported to a cafe in India. The restaurant staff are also very warm and friendly. Dia’s food is truly a delicacy and dining at the restaurant is a nostalgic experience of being home in India. Thank you for one of my most favorite meals and wish you the best of luck ”
