Feel transported to another city during full tea service high above the Harwood District.
Vibe check: Léonie is on the 20th floor of Hôtel Swexan in the modern Harwood development near Uptown. The restaurant, which serves afternoon tea, opened to the public last fall.
The space feels like a conservatory floating in the clouds, with plants throughout the dining space and ample windows to give diners a view outside.
What to expect: Book an afternoon tea for $85 per person and enjoy savory finger foods, several brewed pots and a tower of desserts. Each bite is delicious.
