Nicole BarnettJune 22, 2014Great atmosphere outside on the Patio. Food took a while but really worth waiting. Humitas were fantastic - try them! Had the Braised Short Rib and the Fish Tacos. The Polenta is the best we ever had!
Easily the best mojitos in town. Put this on repeat order - Equadorian Humitas, Baked Goat Cheese, Fish Tacos, Mojitos. You just cant go wrong with those.
Patty GMarch 13, 2013The beef tacos are delicious. The perfect amount of seasonings. The coffee is also great and served with stick rock candy
MikaAugust 8, 2014The short ribs with polenta are amazing. Ribs melt in your mouth and the polenta is super creamy, it's to die for!
Sarah OMay 10, 2014If you want a double espresso, order two espressos because it's cheaper than an actual double espresso.
Brian CraigDecember 17, 2012I tried the Beef Churrasco. The meat was tough and chewy. I ended up with 2 bites in my napkin before giving up. Their food quality seems to be hit or miss! The fish tacos were really good!
Courtney DimiceliJuly 19, 2013Great comfy relaxing patio! Justin was very attentive waiter! Very interesting menu! Loved it!
Tom FinholtSeptember 14, 2012Nice place - still some things to work out in terms of service - however, they comped the mistakes and were quite pleasant. I'll try them again.
Katie BMay 19, 2013AMAZING service! This place is awesome, great food, cool atmosphere. I am def going back!
Ömer KocaoğluMarch 30, 2013This place is great, it is usually neat and not crazly packed, only improvement (and a really necesarry one) can be made is a better DJ...
NickolasJanuary 14, 2015The service is the best part. However the food isn't what it was. Not as trendy, nor high quality. A quick bite with good friends or potential bad dates is why you should eat at Lena. Maybe next time?
Curtis HillerOctober 21, 2012Giant sea clams and duck were tremendous. Steak and ceviche were okay. Service was good. Have a mojito.
Chris SiegelSeptember 22, 2012Gnocchi and watermelon salad are delicious. Characsco skirt steak not a good cut of meat.
Nayha SrivastavaSeptember 8, 2013Slowest service I've had at a semi empty restaurant with a truncated menu.. An hr later can I get my drink at least?! Don't come if you can't wait.. But the foods great.
Mediocre drinks, bad food, decent service. "Modern" plating doesn't make up for lack of quality. Better dining options in the price range everywhere on Main Street.
Eric FrankaNovember 1, 2012Food is sub par at best. Drinks as well. Cheese plate is good but I would be careful.
