This is a hidden gem that is out of the way of the Center; a local neighborhood cafe with regular customers. There are not many places to eat in Pont Jumeaux but if you want a “home cooked meal” then this is the place. Family run; friendly; welcoming…a must try

Even though the staff couldn't really speak English, they were very kind and tried to be helpful as much as they could so even through this difficulty, I managed to order something that I hoped I would like. And I loved it. The food was delicious and very well served. Unfortunately I didn't take any pictures because I was really hungry. I was so pleased with the food and service that I came back the next day for another round of yet again some delicious food. I would definitely recommend visiting this restaurant.

Lovely people, lovely food! First time eating Senegalese food and it was very nice. Plenty of spices but not too hot.

We found Chez Lena accidentally. If you’re in Toulouse, make a point of going here. The host is very welcoming, and the chef is superb. I had a poulet yassa, it was really delicious. Highly recommended

Good place to eat. Not a plush place but friendly owners and customers. Stopped with a friend after rugby in October 21. Initially for a beer. A few beers later, really tasty meal then very kindly a lift to hotel from owner’s partner. All at a very reasonable price. Very friendly and enjoyable evening. Will call again when in the pink city.

I just had the best deep fried fish here. The restaurant is for someone who misses a hearty homecook meal. The owner was absolutely friendly and polite. We will be back!
