This restaurant is on the 20th floor and from the moment you walk in, it sets a tone. This would be a great place to take a date and a great place to meet people. The couple sitting right next to us was celebrating 10 years of marriage. We talked to them for a bit. I have been married 22 years and the other two people I was with have been married 15 and 17 years, so we had a good conversation going. We ended up getting the HWD short rib, which is sourced from local farms in the area. Those short ribs were absolutely great. See the picture below. As usual, I asked the wait staff what their favorite was and they all pointed to the short rib without hesitation. That told me everything I needed to know. I also noticed they have the King salmon, and looking across the menus it seems like they share items across the different restaurants, so there is something for everybody. If I go back, I am definitely getting the smash burger. That is what people were having and it looked right. Five stars. read more

We went for the afternoon tea and it was a very disappointing experience. We waited 35 minutes after our 2 PM reservation seating to even receive our 1st cup of tea. We were never offered a 2nd cup of tea. We had to ask for the second and 3rd cup of tea that we desired. They apparently ran out of scones they advertise with their tea and told us they did not make enough for the number of reservations they had for a Sunday Tea when we were one of three tables in there at 2 PM. We were given a plain crescent roll instead. Although the food was good, the service was so bad I would not recommend this tea to anyone. We were asking for water refills and the restaurant was NOT busy. Rather than seating the four of us at a table for 4, they jammed two 2-tops together and sat a party of 2 at the larger table. There are much nicer places with better service for an afternoon tea read more

We were hotel guests here and because daily breakfast was included in our stay we took advantage. Also, since I was celebrating my birthday the weekend of our stay I decided to book their afternoon tea experience. Their daily breakfast items were pretty good! So much so that it made me look forward to the afternoon tea experience--unfortunately, it was ruined for multiple reasons. First, my bff who couldn't make the trip from NY arranged for them to deliver champagne to our table with an explicit note "from T, happy birthday" but instead of ensuring that went smooth they actually just brought the bottle to the stable and said "whoever booked the reservation on their account added champagne to the account." While we all were shocked at the gesture, the statement was grossly confusing because EYE, the birthday girl, booked the reservation. So safe to say my friend who called and confirmed thoroughly with the hostess who promised she'd ensure the bar and waiters were informed was disappointed that they did not deliver on a very simple ask. Then, 2 guests experienced GI issues about 5-6 hours later, ruining the rest of the celebratory day. We're certain it was the meat from the savory bites of the tea experience. Lastly, they were asked to split the bill and while doing so charged one guest double. When attempts were made to fix this, they became very slow to respond to emails and calls and insisted that it was maybe a tipped amount but wouldn't produce the receipt--also gratuity was already included, between the service and ruined surprise why would our party pay double on tip. Aside from that, the Hispanic hostess was distant and never greeted us with so much of a hello every time we visited. The black hostess on the other hand was welcoming, so much so she helped us figure out how to get our Stillwell leftovers reheated during one of our visits for breakfast. Our waiter, Oliver or Oscar (forgot his name) was vv nice but he was a little hard to track down at times. Of the breakfast items, everything was a 8-9 out of 10 except he wasn't a fan of the hash brown. It was a very savory bite remindful of thanksgiving breaded stuffing molded and fried--I thought it was unique and good, he on the other hand preferred old faithful potatoes! It's decorated very nicely, amazing sunlight and very cute furniture. I wouldn't ever attend their afternoon tea again, and am not sure if I would try breakfast once more. We were given tips after the fact and will use that discretion when looking for places to dine. read more

We visited Léonie in May for afternoon tea and it was excellent. The restaurant is beautiful and the service was amazing. The food was very good although they were still serving the winter tea menu. We did have a small issue but they resolved it without any problem. I am looking forward to returning to try another tea menu. read more

I went here on 6/1 which happens to be my birthday which is on a Monday! I'm so happy it was during the week bc the restaurant was empty just the way I like it! The restaurant is on the rooftop so ofc naturally as girls do we took some fire pics before rewarding ourselves with the hard work we just did. The restaurant is obviously stunning the staff was nice and not overbearing. We ordered a good amount of food which left us full and satisfied. Our server was Amanda and she was so sweet and kind! Will definitely be back! read more

The food here is overpriced and less than mediocre. The Caesar salad was actually terrible. Like how does one mess up a Caesar salad. They were very stingy with the dressing! The crab cake also had a fishy taste and didn't have enough sauce for dipping. They provided a line of sauce solely for aesthetics. I ended up paying nearly $80 for just myself. The mocktails were ridiculously overpriced as well being $14! The interior and views were pretty though. I would not come here for the food! read more

THE BIG: Located at the top of the Hotel Swexan. Beautiful rooftop restaurant with plants everywhere. Indoor and outdoor seating available. Parking garage available. THE BLACK AND WHITE: I was staying here for a night and got breakfast at Leonie. Seating was pretty seamless however the service was very slow and there was only a few people inside. For food, I ordered my omelet with ham, spinach, tomatoes and onions. I was impressed that the waiter didn't take any notes down. I also got a latte. The latte came out pretty quick. However the omelet came out almost 40 minutes later AND the staff took forever to get my check. Food was alright but nothing to brag home about. From start to finish, I think I spent around 1 and a half hours end to end to drink my coffee and get my omelette. THE FINAL BAMBOO: Overall, food was alright. Views and decor was tip top. Service could've been better. read more

Léonie - CAVATELLI - Italian Near Me - Dallas, Texas

I celebrated my birthday here and it was so easy to book a large group with a week in advance, I was already impressed. I've been to the other places at this hotel but just discovered this place and when I saw the views I had to have my birthday dinner here. The staff were great and food tasted good. The drinks were great also! The atmosphere is very beautiful and would be great to be here for their lunch too so I'll be returning to check them out during the day. The pool right outside is beautiful and would be nice to come here when it's warmer. read more

I had the pleasure of enjoying brunch at Leonie last weekend, and it was a wonderful experience from start to finish. The ambiance was beautiful and refreshing, creating the perfect setting for a relaxed meal. Our waiter--whose name I unfortunately didn't catch--provided excellent and attentive service throughout. The food was just as impressive. I ordered the French toast, which was absolutely delicious, and my friend had the eggs Benedict, which she said was the best she's ever had. We will definitely be coming back. read more

We went to holiday tea here and loved it. The staff were friendly, the atmosphere was cute and beautiful views of downtown Dallas, and the food was unique and tasty. We've been to a few tea places, and while this one was pricey, it definitely felt elevated as well. Only things I would change are getting a pot of tea versus having to wait for them to bring it out to us each time, having a small fork in addition to the spoon and knife, and warming up the scones. Nice afternoon tea service though and we had a blast! Free valet parking as well! read more

Such a beautiful setting! Went right at sunset. However, it's seems like this is more of a lunch spot than a dinner destination. The tables were so tiny, please do not expect to have room for any of your side plates with your entree. It felt strange walking past people at the pool to get to your dinner reservation. I would come back again, but just for a more casual lunch. read more

Had pasta, here, this evening. Great views, since it's located on the rooftop. Dining at night is the best with the magnificent views of the city all around. The food was mediocre, in my opinion. My pasta was a bit on the salty side. The customer service was charming, but not too attentive. Lovely aesthetics and atmosphere. Located inside Hotel Swexan, on the 20th floor, I really enjoyed this experience with the beautiful city lights glowing at night. I'll come back next year!! 4 Stars! read more

Food was delicious! The vibe and atmosphere was the best part! Went here for a night out in Dallas! Rooftop view is beautiful. Service from the host and waiters was also amazing! Drinks were decently priced. read more

We had a great time doing the Tea at Hotel Swexan. The atmosphere within Leonie was excellent and the staff were all extremely friendly. We got the Noel tea and an English breakfast tea which were both of high quality and tasted great. The food that they bring with the tea was also all very good. The scones were phenomenal and we really liked almost all of the middle tray finger foods. The desserts had great attention to detail and were also of high quality. We were blown away by this experience and would definitely come back. read more

The ambiance and views is truly the best part of this restaurant. We enjoyed delicious cocktails and service was good, despite the server admitting he was new. The food is nothing to rave about. But I'd go back to enjoy another cocktail and the skyline for sure. read more

Food was marginal, tasted like it had been made last week and then frozen. Tea served was lukewarm. Service was fine, but won't be back due to poor quality of food and tea. read more

A rooftop restaurant with a 20th floor view! Amazing food, amazing service, ambiance is beautiful. Just an overall stunning concept! The wine list was crafted perfectly! read more

This review has nothing to do with the service, it was great. The food was terrible. The steak tastes like a boiled piece of meat - no flavor. The caesar salad's dressing is water. Also, a Tito's and soda is $20 and they tried charging $27 for a tequila soda. The best part of the meal was the bread. Save your money, go anywhere else. read more

The food, service, atmosphere, and over all experience was EXCELLENT! Such a fun place for a private event or fun meal.
