Great food, service, and atmosphere. However, be prepared to sit 30 min after your reservation time, and pay extra for fancy car valet.

What an amazing restaurant and experience. It’s been a while where you dine at a restaurant and they check ALL the boxes of a perfect dining experience. The food was outstanding. The service was fantastic. Sharique our server was very knowledgeable of the menu and made excellent recommendations for us. DOYA is a definite must-dine. You won’t regret any second of it. You feel so good and at home, that it makes it hard to ever eat at any other restaurant.

We were four people celebrating my birthday. My waiter was Maykel and he was fantastic. Everyone who works there has a great attitude, all willing to help the other, which is very unusual for a restaurant like this. It was a pleasant surprise and made my birthday super special. The food is meticulously done in such nice taste. Everything has a beautiful presentation. This is not the restaurant where you come starving because the portions are small but delicious. Every bite is an explosion of taste in your mouth. We ordered 12 different appetizers all amazing. The most impressive thing about this restaurant was the service and the energy inside. It’s just a great ambience. There was a fire dancer. The mood is fun. Thank you so much for making my birthday special.
