Came here for lunch and it's a good deal - 3 course for $28 and they have all the good stuff as options so I recommend! - ceviche: both of our favorites, not too sour and just a perfect mix of fish and veggies/fruita - queso fundido: nothing standout, what you expect - birria tacos: the most amount of beef a taco could hold, super savory and rich - pollo: liked it but nothing standout to me - pastel de elote: tastes like bananas but in a good way, sweet and somewhat savory as well - salted caramel gelato: love the little crunchies they serve with this - churros: perfectly crisp and soft inside

dLeña was such a wonderful experience and I was not expecting the food to get this great.... Went to dLeña on a Sunday and the place has just one of the best ambiances. Felt like I am in Miami for some reason and I have never even been there. Started with Ceviche and it was one of the most fresh Ceviches I have had in any place in the DMV. Ordered the Branzino for myself and Diablo Tiger Prawns for my guest. The food quantity was great. They definitely don't skip on giving you food in the name of fine dining experience. I have to give dLeña its flowers for that. The food was excellent and so flavorful. I am planning another visit real soon. The service was excellent. Water was being refilled like every minute. Even though I am self sufficient type of person who generally doesn't like service staff to fill my glass with a beverage I really appreciate that. We finished with tea and our sever presented us options in a very premium box full of different types of teas. There is an amazing lounge in the bottom floor with live music which is amazing. This is a 5/5 place a must visit for everyone!

Brunch at dLena is a vibe. Beautiful restaurant filled with happy people enjoying life. There's a bottomless food & drink option that is a good deal. This is tapa style brunch, small plates. You'll want to order more because the food is tiny , although yummy. Service was efficient given how busy brunch was. It's very pricey given the portion size. I'd call this a celebration brunch spot.

The food and drinks were great! The waygu empanadas are the best! We should order 2 orders instead of one . The drinks were nicely made with the perfect balance of flavor. our server was Ricardo and he really took care of us. Fast, friendly and thoughtful. it was crowed but he never made us feel that we were getting in his way after we had finished our meal. Overall, good food with excellent service.
