The food is excellent and very tasteful. The price per topping vs the amount of toppings actually on the pizza were saddening. Only 10 pepperoni on a medium pizza for $3, and barely a sprinkle of bacon on here for $3. The last time we ordered was way better... What changed? Really disappointed in these pizzas tonight.

After a long, busy day, sometimes all you need is a simple, satisfying slice of pizza to wrap things up. That’s exactly what I found at Lena’s Pizzeria, a small, cozy spot that feels welcoming. I wasn’t looking for anything complicated, just something delicious, and Lena’s delivered.
I ordered a slice of sausage pizza and a Squirt, a straightforward but classic combo. The pizza arrived hot, with a thin but sturdy crust that had just the right amount of crispness on the bottom while staying soft and slightly chewy on top. It had that unmistakable homemade taste, the kind that reminds you of a family-run pizzeria where quality still matters.
The tomato sauce was well-balanced, not too sweet or tangy, and spread evenly without overpowering the toppings. The cheese, a blend of mozzarella with a slight stretch to it, had a rich, creamy texture and a subtle hint of saltiness that complemented the sauce beautifully. The sausage was the highlight, perfectly seasoned with just the right amount of spice, adding a savory depth to every bite. Each piece had a crisp, slightly caramelized edge from the oven, enhancing the overall flavor.
The atmosphere at Lena’s was exactly what I needed. Not too busy, no loud distractions, just a quiet, welcoming space to enjoy a great slice of pizza. The owner was friendly and kind, adding to the charm of the place. There was no rush, no interruptions, just a chance to unwind and appreciate a simple, well-made meal.

So they give a good amount of cheese and the bread is thick I feel like it needs something else in the sauce but it's okay! Enjoyed it ?

Order just a slice of pizza, it was just okay.
The management is rude. The pizza tastes old and dry, the only wet thing in the pizza was the watered down sauce and the maggots. I do not recommend this place. Across the street is Cipriani's pizza (a better alternative)

The cashier is very rude, a few days ago I came and she helped me in Spanish because there was a man next to her who seemed to be a manager or something like thatThen I went back and ordered in Spanish, to which it turned out that I didn't understand and he spoke to me in English.I got up from the table and told him to get the pizza to go and he yelled in Spanish that that pizza was for takeout and he started laughing afterwards.I'm not coming back

When you call ahead and give a delivery time and they are over an hour early. Guests are not here but pizza is. So much for delivery instructions and reheated pizza. Yuck! So much for Xmas eve dinner. Terrible service when I called back to see how you would fix this. No help at all.
