    Chef Debora Fadul has been recognized in 2020 with "El espíritu de América Latina" award by the world's 50 best restaurants. This award was given due to the outstanding food, its involvement with local producers and its focus on sustainability. A twist on many traditional foods, but not without innovation as it's staple. Visit Diacá and you won't see food with the same eyes

    (Translated by Google) Diacá is one of the best restaurants in Guatemala. The dinner was a combination of haute cuisine and knowledge exchange with the chef and her team, who are all very professional and friendly. The menu is surprising: they only anticipate the ingredients of each course, but when they serve it to you, you find true works of art. I highly recommend it. (Original) Diacá es uno de los mejores restaurantes de Guatemala. La cena fue una combinación de alta cocina e intercambio de conocimientos con la chef y su equipo, que son todas muy profesionales y amables. El menú es sorprendente: solo te anticipan los ingredientes de cada tiempo, pero cuando te lo sirven, encontrás verdaderas obras de arte. Lo recomiendo mucho.

    One of the top meals of my life, everything about this rooftop oasis is sheer perfection. The food, the chef and the explanation of the local ingredients was a delight. Not to be missed for a trip to Guatemala City.

    This week I had the opportunity to once again taste the delicious cuisine of Guatemalan Chef Debora Fadul at her restaurant Diaca, located on the terrace of the OEG building in the heart of zone 4. At Diaca, Deborah and a team of 8 cooks, mixologists, and crazy scientists prepare a tasting menu of 7 or 8 dishes to showcase Guatemalan ingredients and flavors and delight any palate. My excelent experience was is surprise, as Debora is internationally recognized for her innovation and was recently named among the top 100 chefs in the world by 'The Best Chef Awards'. The dishes in my tasting menu played with the palate by mixing flavors, textures, and temperatures. They were all good, but in my opinion, the Papaya Ragout knocked it out of the park. Thursday was the last day of the winter menu, so the dishes have changed today, but what I am sure of is that a dining experience at Diaca will always be a great combination of Guatemalan flavors, top-quality ingredients, and artistic presentations. I've been lucky enough to dine at signature cuisine restaurants in many parts of the world. For those who haven't had the chance to do so, I recommend trying (paying in Quetzales and without having to buy plane tickets) this style of cuisine in our Capital City, Zone 4.

    Amazing restaurant. One of the best we’ve ever been to, and we have been to many of the 50 best Latin-America list. Hands down the best cocktails, excellent service where you learn so much about Guatemala and of course great food. We stayed in Antigua, but took an uber back and forth to dine here. And the prices are way too good. Will come back for sure.

    3.5 stars. The ambiance of Diaca is dazzling with exquisite interior. The chefs/servers were superb. I had the 11-course tasting menu with cocktail pairing. The food presentation was beautifully done. However the flavor was just not there. Taste can be very subjective so this is solely based on my own opinion. The winter menu - only 3 out of 11 courses were warm or barely warm. I find the flavor too bland. The goal of food and drink pairing was just not achieved. Cocktails - it could be made a whole lot better. Example: Their version of Cuba Libre. The mixologist explained that they make their own coca cola, which is a very nice concept in theory, yet it tasted exactly like any Cuba Libre from Havana to any dive bars. I think a twist could have been easily added. Other cocktails were also too much ice and watered-down taste. Overall, it was still good and thankful for the experience. It's my 17th out of 100 top restaurants in the world/MENA/Latam

    This was easily the best meal I've ever had. I had the vegetarian option and it was absolutely incredible. On top of that, everything is locally sourced and you can feel that the staff has a true passion for food and agriculture.

    Hands down my best meal in Guatemala. Such a fun and unique experience. The team put together thoughtful dishes that highlighted the regional ingredients is such a creative way. Enjoyed my night, learned more about food, and left feeling a bit inspired! Highly recommend.

😐 The food is good, but the service should improve, the staff doesn't like to assist, you need to call the waiters several times.
