Restaurants near Rice Memorial Stadium

This is my second time dining here. The first time I went was last year in the summer and we sat outside. It was gorgeous. The second time was last night with my two children. The inside is beautiful, and the food was great. The menu online IS NOT accurate though. It says you have the pre-fix option? No such thing in the restaurant and they don't reply to messages which was incredibly annoying to me. We got to sit on the high-top table like I chose online. But the table was wobbly, and the kids and I were afraid of the drinks or the food falling over. It is a bit too loud for my taste. I felt like I was screaming over my kids. The music and entertainment were great which I loved. The server was funny and on point. She didn't write down our order at all, but she got everything right. Jocelyn was great. Again, the only thing that I didn't like is that the menu online DOES NOT match the menu they actually have on site. I had to settle for mofongo when I actually wanted churrasco. It wasn't even listed as if it didn't exist. Nothing wrong with the food but I think you should be able to actually order what you want, and the menu should actually be accurate.

This was our first time visiting Lena's, and we were pleasantly surprised. I actually just googled places for brunch, and picked this one. Our hostess, I believe her name is Emily, and if I'm wrong, I'm sorry, but she was great. Our waiter, Angel was exceptional, which I'm sure they all are. He was quite attentive and knowledgeable. Joseph, who I think is the manager, made us feel at home and very welcome. If you live in the Bronx, or are just visiting Lena's is a must. We were so happy with everything, we already booked for Valentine's day.

We loved this place! We drove by it many times but decided to stop by Friday night. The service was attentive, and the food was amazing! This will be a regular upscale date-night ristorante for us. Kudos to the staff and ownership.

Everything was great but coming to a restaurant where threres a lot of available seats and to be sat near the window and it’s freezing outside wasn’t ideal but I didn’t argue. That was my only takeaway. Besides that the food was good, the drinks were ok, as was the hookah. Ambiance and music was great.

Amazing!! The energy level was so high. Loved every moment. The staff was super friendly & accommodating. Food was delicious. Music was on point.
