...came upon Diva, the Indian Bistro. Diva—the name conjures up images of a sexy siren. We wondered if the restaurant would resemble her name: sassy and high-profile with too much attitude and too little substance. She was certainly attractive, bejeweled in regal hues of deep orange, red and purple.

However, if an easy-going weeknight excursion and intimate conversation are what you have in mind, look no further. While merely a newcomer on the scene, Diva is without a doubt a shining star...
