"Built to withstand an unrelenting crush of boozy brunch-goers, Leeland House in East Downtown is mostly a sprawling, multi-level patio disguised as a restaurant. Sure, there’s a house where you order at the counter, but the plant-screened patio is where you want to be. You can easily show up here with as many or as few people as you want, and immediately stake a claim over any outside cluster of tables, like some kind of brunch-level Risk strategy. Food and drinks arrive at your small table-island nation almost suspiciously fast, and everything includes bacon, even the french toast. " - gianni greene, chelsea thomas
