Calling All Pasta Lovers

If you're looking for a date night spot, the perfect place for a special occasion, or just somewhere nice to eat in style, then you should visit Lena Trattoria. This restaurant is serving Northern Italian food in the Bronx with delicious menu options for you to try.

The ambiance here sets the tone for an enjoyable dining experience. They have exposed brick walls, a wine display wall, and hanging paintings of some of your favorite Italian movie stars.

The menu is filled with plenty of options including vegetarian risotto, salmon, and bone-in rib eye. They have weekday Happy Hour, including their Happy Pizza Hour from 12-6pm. They also have Lunch Specials. They don't miss a beat with the classic Italian staple, Spaghetti & Meatballs, which comes topped with parmesan cheese and fresh basil.

For dinner, start with the Pei Mussels, with your choice of a Fri Diavolo or a white wine garlic butter sauce. You can't go wrong with any of the meats on the menu, but if you're looking for something lighter, then try the Grilled Branzino. It's butterflied, crispy skin on the outside, and comes drizzled in a herbed garlic scampi sauce. You also get a large side of French beans.

They even have weekend brunch ‘til 4:30pm.
