Didn't order in advanced, but two whole pizzas took 15 minutes like they estimated. Totally worth it! The pizza was so good! Not too thin, not too crispy. It was like a hybrid NY-style/New Haven. Delicious The broccolini was also so flavorful and perfectly cooked. Just note, they don't offer grated cheese on the tables, just crushed red peppers and oregano. But the pizza was cheesy enough! If you're an avid cheese fanatic, just bring your own grated cheese to satisfy your needs.

My biggest problem with Lena's is that I can never seem to find enough reasons to stop going…read more The servers can be a little slow, but honestly, I don't want to be rushed while I'm eating pizza with kids anyway. The prices are definitely on the higher side, but have you looked at literally anything lately? So I'll allow it. They have this very creative Havana theme that somehow makes me feel like I should be drinking a mojito on vacation, even though I'm actually there with two kids negotiating over cheese pizza. Speaking of the pizza: it's what you should get. I recently ordered the chicken parm, which was good! But the pizza is where it's at. Especially the kids' cheese pizza, which is so good that I consider taking a slice from my children a completely reasonable parenting tax. And the Caesar salad? Weirdly excellent. I order it basically every time. The biggest issue is that Lena's is too family friendly. They are incredibly accommodating to kids, which makes it dangerously easy to keep coming back when I should probably be trying somewhere new. So yes, the service is a little slow, the prices are a little high, and I am apparently incapable of ordering anything besides pizza and Caesar salad. 5 stars. I'll be back.

I recently visited Havana 151 and tried the pizza and Alfredo pasta. The food was fine, but…read morehonestly, nothing really stood out as being particularly special. I also felt that it was a bit overpriced for what we got. The restaurant was pretty busy when we went, so I understand that the service was a little slow. Overall, the service was okay. It wasn't a bad experience, but I don't think the food was memorable enough to justify the price. There are definitely other places I'd probably try before coming back.

The restaurant is absolutely gorgeous, with warm, inviting décor and a quiet location just off the main drag--something we actually appreciated because it made for a more relaxed, charming experience. We lived in Old Town about 25 years ago, and it was amazing to see how much the area has grown. We started with the cast iron meatballs, and they were outstanding. The meatballs were tender and generously portioned, and the sauce was so good we didn't want to leave a drop behind. For lunch, we split the turkey club, which turned out to be the perfect choice because it was enormous! Every ingredient tasted incredibly fresh, but the real star was the warm sesame-seed bread--light, fresh, and unlike any sandwich bread we've had before. The service was exceptional -- friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. A friend of my husband's, Jesse (possibly a manager? Go Bills!) had recommended Cooper Mill, and it exceeded every expectation. Beautiful restaurant, delicious food, outstanding service! we'll absolutely be back. Highly recommend! - Pat & Julie

I saw a few different types of pizza slices, but I just wanted to get two regular old cheese slices. I also got a canned root beer which is the only canned drink that they had. Since the pizzas were already prepared, the guy just popped the slices in an oven and less than two minutes later it was ready. The slices could have been a little hotter, but I had problem finishing them off.

The food is divine - house made pastas, fluffy pizzas, simple yet sophisticated salads (strawberry arugula with the straciatella is chef's kiss). This place is no secret. I highly recommend getting a reservation. Don't be deterred if OpenTable doesn't have availability. If you call and are kind to the host staff, I have found that they can sometimes squeeze you in. The downstairs is loud and vibrant, while the upstairs is a bit sexier with velvet drapes, paintings, and dim lighting. It can get a little loud, but you will be too busy eating the best Italian food around to really notice. It is a must-go.

After playing pickleball with a friend, we came down to the waterfront (as I have not been here in ages) and my friend chose this place for us to have lunch. We showed up before noon and at around 11:30am, the place was mobbed with people on a Sunday of a holiday weekend. But, we were lucky to get a table outside. The weather could not have been nicer and my preferred dining is al fresco so I was happy. I am refraining from alcohol, so just had a Diet Coke for my drink. We ordered a giant meatball and a sausage pizza to share. The pizza was pretty good but its pretty small, in a square shape. The meatball was ginormous, however, the taste was so-so. Ive had better but this one was not bad. Great spot to grab lunch, lots of people watching for sure. I'd prefer to be out on the water to dine but this was super nice too. I'd come back again when in town and check out other items on their menu. The place gets 3 stars for food, and 4 for location.

(Read that in your best Trump impression--huuuge). It came out piping hot, fresh from the oven, and served on two paper plates. The slice was actually really good, thin crust, crispy, loaded with cheese, and just the right amount of grease. I'd definitely come back to try a whole pie. The vibe is super casual, kind of like a mix between a sports bar and a pizza joint.

I saw a takeout deal and went for it; they offered two pizzas for a pretty reasonable price, with the caveat that they had to be exactly the same (even the toppings added). Fortunately, I picked a good combo, getting a vodka and pesto pizza with sesame seeds on the crust, and adding peppers for a needed vegetal contrast as it was salty and indulgent as presented. This is their smaller size pizza, but I still couldn't finish one, and so got three meals out of the two pizzas. It is a nicely crisped Detroit style, and you can definitely taste the quality of ingredients. They do have some special dietary needs options, and the salads are good as well although I didn't get one from this location.
