    Our food was good, but not great. We ordered the crab dip which was very tasty, but the crostinis were overcooked and hard and brittle. Our other appetizer, a shrimp dish, was excellent. My Tuscan salmon was pretty bland and didn't taste the freshest. The lamb chops were good, but beside the food being just good this time around, our waitress was the most unfriendly. She served drinks over one of the people we dined with; I guess it was too far to walk the additional couple of feet. She never smiled and seemed disinterested at best. When it was time to pay the bill, she stood over me with the handheld device almost daring me not to tip. And I did tip her of course but not as much as I would have if she had welcomed us to Lena's. This was a disappointing visit.

    Not the same Lena’s we remember. The decor used to be changed and we were surprised to not see a setup for Easter as we had seen in previous years. Used to love the loft but for spring/summer its too dark and starting to look a but worn. Pizza was great, but the fried chicken/biscuit was not particularly well done: way too salty, not much gravy, and a bit too rich. Potatoes were spot on: Service was not great but likely a one-off. Drink refills had to be asked for specifically, food orders were forgotten, server checked in very infrequently and even when asked for items they were forgotten or just mever appeared (ordered additional drinks, food items).

    The food was cooked extremely well and was very tasty. Service was a bit lacking and we had to wait a long time for our server to come back to the table. Overall it was a good experience, the food itself was fantastic, there just could be an improvement in the service.

    Overall the ambiance and the food was excellent…the crab dip was delish…the chicken rustica was delish, just wish they put more spinach on the plate. Loved the decor and overall experience. Would definitely go again and recommend. I will say the name didn’t match the aesthetic and experience and decor…had I not read reviews I wouldn’t have expected the experience.
