Lena’s Roti & Doubles

This place is fantastic! So flavorful! The Channa and Aloo roti is absolutly fantastic, and can only be made better by placing a double on top of it!

«People usually get plain roti because it’s less messy.»
Give me the other one then.
Lena’s is messy delicious business. You have two options for roti, paratha or dhal puri, and an assortment of different meats to choose from (ex. Chicken, goat, duck). Of course, there are a number of items on the menu as well worth exploring.
I had the goat roti and doubles, which came out rather quickly. I started with a fork and knife and gradually progressed to eating with my hands — a necessary change. The food is amazing! I found the meat portions very generous, and the meal was filling and super flavourful.
Will definitely come back again to try more things in the menu.
Note: this seems to be the same restaurant as the one in Brampton so enjoy whether you’re there or in Mississauga!

Alright I should start off by saying I went to this place by accident, but I was happy that the food here was amazing. I got the boneless chicken roti with a doubles. The boneless chicken had the right mix of sauce. I find that determines a good roti, if the insides are too runny then it gets too messy and its hard to eat and if the insides are too dry then the whole meal is off because you have to drink more.
Now for the doubles, I was excepting more favour but it really wasn’t that good. I would say stick to Roti’s here.

I’ve been meaning to grab some roti & doubles here ever since I started working in Mississauga and finally got the chance last week and Lena’s did not disappoint.
Came in at around 730p for take-​out and the place was really quiet, which is to my benefit I suppose since it seems to be usually busy according to other reviewers. Ordered myself a goat roti dhalpuri ($ 9.99) and a doubles ($ 1.90? If I remember correctly…) and it took about 5−10min tops for the wait. I’ll probably call ahead next time to see if I can place an order to avoid waiting during my break as they close at 8pm.
When I finally got my food my bag felt surprisingly heavy. At first I thought I might’ve heard my order wrong as there was another gentleman waiting for his food as well, but I was assured I had the correct order. Once back at the office and I opened the contents of my to-​go bag, the roti was MASSIVE — easily 2−3lbs! The doubles were also a good size, and if I had ordered 3 – 4 I could’ve easily been filled on those alone. But the Roti… my goodness. Large chunks of goat and so full of flavour! The curry was also delish and I had to take multiple breaks while eating it since it was so large!
I highly suggest having a big appetite when having one of Lena’s roti’s!

9.99 for boneless goat roti. u have 2 options for the roti. i’m not even going to try to name them cus i will fail. but there was a plain roti and one with some sort of crushed bean/​peas type stuff. i went with the plain one because i find the other one a bit dry (though i’ve never had it here before).
the roti is quite big in size and was truly boneless. i hate biting into goat roti and almost breaking my face biting into a chunk of bone. goat was nice and juicy. the downside is that it’s very very messy to eat. but you all know how much i love messy foods. will try their doubles next and they also have chicken doubles which i’ve never had or seen before.

I’ve been by for lunch a couple of times while working in Mississauga. I tried the boneless goat roti the first time and it is quite good. The roti itself is nice and flakey and up there with the best in the GTA. The goat curry was tasty but the goat really could have stood being cooked for a while longer. Not as tender as other places. I tried the doubles on a subsequent visit and again very tasty. It’s a larger serving than other places so be warned. Service is reasonably quick and the staff pretty friendly. This is an order then go to your seat kinda place. I would recommend and will be back when in the area.

Great to finally have a clean restaurant that serves tasty rotis in the Meadowvale area. Love it!

Me and my husband love this place! It’s a must try and very clean. I highly recommend the veggie platter and almost everything on their menu. Don’t forget to ask for «no pepper» if your a softy like myself lol or you will be in for a shock. Doubles are pretty good too and always fresh! Enjoy.

I was passing by at noon on Saturday and noticed Lena’s is now open on weekends! I was having a BBQ at home with a few people later that day but have been wanting to try their dhalpuri for a while now. I decided this was a good opportunity to pop in and grab some take-​out for my guests to sample.
When I walked in, the place was empty (likely because people don’t know that it is now open weekends) but I was welcomed by a very friendly and knowledgable woman who helped guide me on what to order. I decided on a sampling of 2 rotis (I chose dhalpuri style rather than the plain paratha style). I decided on one channa roti which is filled with chickpeas and potato ($ 7.99) and one boneless chicken ($ 9.99) and a side order of 2 «doubles» ($ 1.90 each) per her recommendation which are also filled with chickpeas (they do have chicken doubles if you prefer over chick peas for an additional cost).
The food came out very quickly (I sat at one of their many tables in the restaurant while I waited). The food was nice and hot and brought out by another very friendly woman at the back. The rotis were huge! And the doubles were so delicious (filled with chick peas but they also have chicken if you prefer meat). The doubles were well worth it for less than $ 2 each. I could have one of them as a meal and be satisfied!
I personally preferred the chick peas but my brother enjoyed the chicken better. I found the chicken a little dry but I am not a big meat eater so that could be just my viewpoint. I absolutely enjoyed both the doubles and the channa dhalpuri so would highly recommend. They also have really great other selections like goat, lamb and pumpkin!
Check it out if you are in the area. You can sit in or take out. It looks like they also may have lunch specials during the week.

Well I love Trini food, and heard that Lena’s has opened in my neighbourhood. I dropped in one dday for lunch and enjoyed it. The line was almost out the door. I ended up ordering the boneless goat roti and three doubles (two for my wife when she got home).
The Roti was good, not great. It was a little dry for my taste, and could have been great if it was moister. Still the roti bread and the double were great. I will repeat.
Since I live in the area, I wish that this place were open on weekends. Hopefully someday they will.
