    Great dining experience. My brother-in-law and my nephew came to visit. Lena’s is our go-to restaurant when we have guests from out of town because the menu has great variety, the food is awesome, and the drinks are amazing.

    Absolutely most strange experience ever going to a restaurant. Cuban Restaurant- you’d think there would be at least one Cuban food item on the menu. Nope. And this isn’t a person being subjective about what is Cuban food. Everything is Cuban except for the food. So on that front it was incredibly disappointing. The dishes we had were nice Italian dishes but at some point as I was getting the reservation I wish someone would have thought to mention “oh it’s just our decor, music, social media post and name that imply we serve Cuban food.”

    Service was good. Pizza good. But, chicken parm was just ok. Noodles were hard and the sauce was cold. Tasted like it was from a jar. Complained about it and just got a sorry. ...still paid for it...

    We have frequented Lena’s downstairs many times and always enjoyed the food and ambiance so decided to treat ourselves to the Loft Havana 151 to celebrate a birthday with friends. I was so excited to finally experience it, so I’m sad to say it was very disappointing. The food and drinks were just ok, but extremely overpriced and not near worth what you pay up there. The noise level is so loud you can’t reasonably chat with even a table mate without screaming and leaning in to hear. And the decorations were weak and cheesy. It’s too bad, I expected so much more, but at least downstairs is usually nice, so we’ll stick with that I guess.

    We've eaten at Lena's multiples times in the past. This time disappointed. The salad was uncreative. The rigatoni was overcooked and dry. The garlic bread came out cold. We won't return for awhile, unfortunately.
