| - I'm having a hard time thinking of a rating for this place so I decided to default to 3? (I mean, how do you quantify subjectiveness in 5 stars anyways?)
My friend's sister recommended this place to us and apparently Lena is all over Toronto for their wonderful Latin American food. But, the brunch? It was okay. It was fine. I got the full gaucho: leña spiced egg, morcilla, jamón, mushrooms, potatoes à la plancha, all of that fancy Latin American food?
I don't really know what to say. I probably will not come back to the place just because it didn't leave an amazing impression on me. It's not bad, don't get me wrong, there are a lot of 1 star reviews of this restaurant which I don't think Lena deserves. The brunch IS quite expensive, but overall, it was filling and didn't taste bad at all. One thing I did note was the amount of oil on the plate. (There was a lot). I also thought the location was odd. It's sneakily located on Yonge and Queen, and the mall is right there too.
If you want to REALLY try out their Latin American food, don't go for brunch, or maybe try out more of their less breakfasty-foods?
