We went for brunch on a Sunday morning. The place was not busy but filled up a bit by the time we left. Food servings are on smaller side with some being tapas, but it's delicious. The mimosa bottomless option has papaya, blood orange, orange, or passion fruit flavors. Highly recommend as a brunch spot and we are going to go back to try dinner. Update we went back for dinner, it's as good as brunch!!
Excellent food, drinks, and service. The food is the star of the show, tons of flavor and character. Some of the dishes had some heat, so ask if you don't like that. Brunch and dinner are equally good. Great tequila and mezcal list, lots of solid picks and a couple of unexpectedly good choices. The staff is always friendly and attentive.
Definitely a cool atmosphere when you walk in. The food was delicious and the service was great. The Falda was a bit under seasoned this the four stars. However, the tacos, plantains, and the cheese we're very tasty. Food was served quickly which is a plus. Overall a good experience and tasty food.
Service was absolutely amazing!!!!! Plates were small but we actually were surprised to leave super full. The atmosphere was really great. We enjoyed this dinner tremendously! Only complaint was the lightning was terrible had to use a flashlight to see menu.
Stopped by Lena a few days ago and was pleasantly surprised! It is a decent sized, open space which practices all protocols for covid. They have great music and delicious cocktails. We tried out the Paloma which has corrales blanco, lime, grapefruit, and fresca. We then moved onto the the Caipirinha which consists of cachaca 61, lime, and sugar. Both were fantastic choices!
As far as food goes, we ordered the ceviche de pulpo which is spanish octopus, tomatillo, lime, red onion, jalapeno, avocado, and tortilla chips. We also got the empanadas crujiente con pollo which were delicious crispy empanadas with chicken, poblano, red onion, chipotle, and a sweet golden raisin crema which comes under the empanadas as a dip. We then moved onto the falda from the wood-fire grill which is a 7oz flank steak prepared medium rare.
Everything that we ate and drank was extremely tasty. I highly recommend this spot and cannot wait to come back to explore the menu further!
I really liked Leña! The atmosphere was very nice, the wait staff was knowledge and kind. The only reason for 4 out of 5 stars was that the carrots in my Pollo con Mole were burnt. Other than that it was a very nice experience.
The octopus ceviche was delicious, the mole' was well prepared and cooked perfectly. The mixed grill had one low light and that was the short ribs, chewy and salty. It was not inexpensive.
Awesome place for a dinner with friends or date. The staff is really friendly and helpful. The tequila selection is perfect and the dishes are amazing! If you're not sure which tequila to order, the bartender will surely help you make the right choice (hint. There's no wrong choice). Definitely will visit again, saved in my favorite places list.
We had a full blown food orgy at this well appointed restaurant with a great bar and plenty of room for events. Our meal started with the eggs Benedict (YUM!!) and the Empanada. Our main courses were their version of French toast w/ a chili butter that was a nice touch and the Chilaquiles (w/ perfect eggs) which simply ROCKED! We both had the house margarita that was a perfect accoutrement to our mexican dished theme. Also, try their sister restaurant, Prohibition!
We have been her for brunch and dinner. Both were great experiences. The menu features small and large plates which can be great for groups. There is a fully stocked bar and unique cocktails that would also fit an after work happy hour.
