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.
