Best Restaurants Open for Newyears Eve this year in Leesburg – 2024

Our visit to The Conche was a truly unique and memorable dining experience! This restaurant specializes in infusing chocolate or cocoa into all their dishes, which was something we had never encountered before. We weren’t exactly sure what to expect, but I have to say, we were pleasantly surprised by the incredible savory dishes. The way they incorporated chocolate into each course was subtle, creative, and delicious. For our meal, we decided to go with the prix fixe menu that included a wine pairing, and it was absolutely the right choice. Each course was thoughtfully prepared, and the wines were perfectly matched with the flavors of the dishes. And let me tell you, the dessert was out of this world! We were blown away by how decadent and delightful the dessert course was—definitely one of the highlights of the evening. The service was also fantastic. The staff was attentive, knowledgeable, and made us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. They guided us through the menu and explained how the chocolate infusion worked with each dish, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. If you’re looking for a dining experience that’s different but not too far off the beaten path, The Conche is the place to go. We can’t wait to return for another amazing meal!

Very elegant place. I enjoyed my time here as they had a seven course meal which I liked. The wine pairing with every meal was on par. The food was very delicious and the service was great as well. I do recommend coming here to try it out. This place will be another one of my top places to come to.

Yet another amazing experience with the food and ambiance. Went in to celebrate our anniversary. The server was very knowledgeable and pleasant to talk too. The food as always was impeccably served and taste was amazing . One could taste the micro greens in the Salmon dish. What didn't go well with us this was with the servers response to one of an issue we found in one of the appetizers ; the Lamb Cigars, my husband found a piece of plastic in it and we asked the server 'Salvador' to see what it was and If it was harmful. He came back saying to us that the Chef didn't know what it was and it was nothing and we should not even think about it ! Also, they would take it out of the bill. Well... that was not our intention or concern ... we needed to know what was it and if it was harmful to us. Finding a Piece of plastic in the appetizer and wanted an assurance that it was not harmful to us was the main point. This should have been taken care more emphatically. We love this place and have always recommended to lots of our friends to visit this amazing retro cruise restaurant. This time round we tried the Lamb Cigars and the Sweet and sour Cauliflower, both were amazing. For dinner we tried the Chicken Vindaloo Sizzlers and Salmon Grill.... Ordered the warm Soufflé for dessert .They treated us with a writing anniversary wishes and dark chocolate with chai and pumpkin fillings. That was a sweet gesture. All in all a sure visit for the holidays for their scrumptious food and delectable chocolate!!

They have best veggie burger I ever had.. great blend of flavour .. everything we ordered tasted really good . Egg Benedict was oozy and flavourful. Coffee was also great !! We went twice there and every-time everything was perfect.

It is rare to find so many delicious food finds on a single street in a quaint little old town and much less offered in establishments next to each other. SideBar deserves to be your first stop and fill up on cocktails and small bites before you venturing to your full service, higher-end, dinner or lunch. The most surprising gem of the dish is the "Cinnamon Apple Fries". It might be fritters or some apple flavor or sauce mixed with starch and formed into shape of fries. Oh no, delectable morsel is fried green apple and shockingly original. Can't find any other dessert like this for miles and most certainly more healthy than the vein-thickening fried onion blossom. Paired with your favorite cocktail made well really lets the happiness set in. Then Sidebar's happy hour prices will just add to your happiness after you've stuffed your cocktail drenched cheeks with real fried apples.

What a stellar spot! Came here for brunch from DC. The staff is so welcoming, also got us a dog bowl with out even asking for one. The breakfast burger was great, the build your own breakfast sandwich is the way to go though. Please make sure to end it with the cinnamon bun!!

This place is quite the quaint experience. I wasn't sure what to expect, but it's a nice spot, very relaxed. Starting with the basics, the biscuit is very good. They're big, tender, and fluffy. They hold up to the dishes, but are still light in a way. I had The Cure: biscuit, sausage gravy, Tillamook cheddar, fried chicken, and a poached egg. A nice balance, though the breading likes to slip off the chicken once it starts to absorb the gravy a bit. My wife had the Bless Your Heart. It was the biscuit, Nashville hot chicken, pickles, and mac & cheese. The chicken is a little spicy and peppery, but still maintains a good flavor. There is a lot of mac & cheese. The pickles are a nice balance and quite vinegary. Staff was friendly and attentive. I'm curious about the cocktails, but it was too early the day we went for breakfast.

Everything about our meal was perfection. They had a very innovative take on chicken and waffles - the waffle batter with deliciously tender chicken bites, paired with the maple butter, was delightful. The Bless Your Heart was so good! Every piece of the meal was perfection - the thick pickle slices, the juicy and crisp fried chicken (perfectly fried skin/batter), the mac and cheese, the large fluffy biscuit. We slathered on some maple butter on our biscuit from the chicken and waffles and it was heavenly.

We stopped in here to try somewhere new for lunch and we were not disappointed. The ambiance was so relaxed, bright and inviting! The biscuits were huge & delicious, nice and fluffy on the inside. The chicken in the sandwich was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The deviled eggs definitely had some tang, but the smokiness of the bacon balanced it perfectly. Must recommend trying this restaurant! Loved the check coming out in a book, too.

Party in my mouth!! This is a fun menu with a lot of great flavors. We started off with the curry fries … so much flavor! I love that we can have breakfast any time. Their menu has a wonderful selection of eggs Benedict variations. I settled on the Neptune Benedict, which was with smoked salmon (I added the capers!). My companion went with the hunters scramble. I had a lavender mimosa which was quite a fun time as well. Our service was wonderful and really the menu was so wonderful I had a hard time deciding. We will have to come back just to try more fun things. Food was cooked well and arrived hot and quickly. Waitstaff was extra attentive. They had a respectable wine list and a nice long list of mimosas (and flights). Lots of fun to be had here! I would have liked to see more beer, and especially some dark beer on the menu. Otherwise this is a great little spot. Loved it.

Nice hole in the wall with a lot of room. Quiet and comfortable spot to grab a bite with friends and family. Lots of good options for food and drink. Would recommend the poker room if you're looking for the quietest spot. There were a few board games available as well. Note: seems like the French onion soup goes fast and the paninis are not actually paninis.

We sat inside and the atmosphere felt very historically refined. The bench seating was a bit uncomfortable then we realized we should have sat outside. Wow! What a nice place to see. Being on the patio closer to the secret garden was pleasant. The weather was perfect and the service was even better. Fran was patient and friendly. We were glad she was able to bring our service outside once we decided to move. The food did leave a bit to be desired but the atmosphere and service steeply made up for it. Next time we will pick new things from the menu and dine at night! Thank you so much for a new experience.

On the table, biscuit, fried egg, bacon, tots, breakfast pizza, mini cupcake, rkt, scone, iced almond caramel latte, and a mimosa. Not one single bad item. Cowbell Kitchen nails it on taste. Eating the biscuit was such a pleasant experience. Flavorful, crumbly, HUGE! I would recommend and I would return.

Adorable women-owned spot in Leesburg. Delicious food and drinks. Ample seating on the outdoor patio and inside (across the patio). We learned they donate fresh produce and bread to the local food pantry every few weeks and help feed 50-80 families. Absolutely stop by if you are in town!

We had a snickerdoodle and orange cardamom cinnamon roll. The snickerdoodle was perfectly chewy with crisp edges. The cinnamon roll with the orange flavor was very enjoyable.

Very consistent place, food is good, price are matched for the food you get. Been there a few times and will be back again. Very large allergy friendly menu available online and accurate. Lobster and spinach queso Scallops NY strip and lobster tail

I recently dined at Firebirds Wood Fired Grill in Leesburg, and while the ambiance was cozy and the service friendly, I was disappointed with the food. I ordered a wood-fired steak cooked medium, but it arrived overcooked and dry. Additionally, the fruit that accompanied another dish looked old and lacked freshness, which was unexpected for the price point. Despite these issues, the restaurant had a nice atmosphere, and the staff made an effort to ensure we were comfortable. I may give it another try in the future, but I hope they improve the quality and attention to detail in the kitchen.

We came in on a Sunday afternoon and unfortunately just missed the cutoff for brunch. This was my first visit here, as I was helping a friend move in to a nearby apartment. It's a cute little town square concept and location, though parking can be a bit difficult unless you opt for the garage. We decided to eat inside because it was just a touch too cool in the shade of their outdoor patio. We were a party of 3, and later 4 when another joined us for dessert. We ordered a bottle of rosé, some appetizers, a 3-course meal deal (a good value for $39.95), and two hot chicken sandwiches with tots. The food was all very well-prepared. The wine was delicious and kept chilled at the table. We tried the deviled eggs as an appetizer, and it was very good. Service, on the other hand, was not so great. It was not very crowded at this hour on a Sunday, in between brunch and dinner. We had a young man, maybe college aged, as our server and it was clear he needed some additional training. We kept having to flag the hostess and other servers to ask him to come back to our table. We had an obviously dirty plate brought out to the table for our appetizers, and we pointed it out to him; he took it away but never came back with another plate! Same thing for a wine glass that had a lipstick smudge on it. He took it away but we had to ask another server for a replacement! Food would come out brought by a food runner, and our server wouldn't come in to check if everything was to our liking or if we didn't anything. It was like this with everything: water glasses, silverware, and to-go containers. We even had to ask someone else for a dessert menu after completing our meal for a good 20 minutes (and one of our meals came with a dessert already). Even the final check required someone flagging him down. Food and ambiance were all very good. But server training is a definite need. I think our lunch took at least 90 minutes. I can't imagine how long a lunch or dinner would be if it was actually a full/busy time of day.

I noticed that the other table got free bread but I didn't get offered. Oh well. Lobster bisque was strange. Not bad but it was odd. The steak and cheese egg rolls were okay. The calamari was not great. Interesting they did with two sauces under the calamari but the the calamari itself wasnt very good. Maybe the other menu items are better but the appetizer weren't spectacular.

My family went to this restaurant after a long day at the outlet mall and were pleasantly surprised with the experience. The crab cakes tasted great with a plethora of crab throughout it. The fish was extremely delightful with the seasoning very well balanced. Lastly, the dessert really topped everything well and gave us a nice finale. There are not many chain restaurants we revisit regularly, but if we see a Blue Ridge Grill there is a good chance we will stop by.

The Food was Great, Impressive atmosphere and in half an hour we were out! That’s how long it takes for the food to come sometimes! Definitely would recommend! thanks diana our server

Good service, plenty of menu options and solid food. What's not to like? *bacon popcorn was good but a bit on the salty side. *shrimp tacos-generous portion and tasty. *cheeseburger-prepared medium, tasty but messy. We would return if we're in the area. Food came out quick, service was attentive and there were other menu options I'd like to try.

My daughter and I LOVE the food here! Not much to look at from the outside, but the EXCELLENT food makes it well worth a try if you haven’t already. We always like to try the items on the seasonal menu / specials. The flavors pairings are sometimes unique but the Chef knows what he’s doing so please be sure to be adventurous and try new things. Everything we have tried has been over-the-top delicious, very gourmet. Kind of like home cooked meals with fresh ingredients and a gourmet flair. We love to get 2 or 3 appetizers to share as our meal so we can try more things. We LOVE fried green tomatoes (summer 2023). I definitely recommend this place!

Stopped in for a bit during the football games. The service was good and the food was great. Really enjoyed the place overall.

Pleasantly surprised to get some happy hour prices on a Sunday ... oysters on the half shell, a pound of mussels, blue cheese chips, and a lobster roll ... food was delicious and service was cheerful ... only complaint was that we sat close to the door and it was cold. Great Place!!!

It was my third time here, and I thought I'd give a review. I usually sit at the bar and have great service. Their bar tenders are very nice and accommodating. I enjoy their menu items: oysters, muscles, clams, fries... these are my go-to's. They have a good selection of spirits as well. Quality products overall, great spot in Leesburg to socialize and relax. I have not seen this spot jam-packed. Every time I visited (Fridays around 2-4) it's not crazy crowded. Overall, it's a solid little spot!

Saturday lunch. Better than a Sunday dinner we had here a couple years ago. Had 4 dozen oysters, some during happy hour time & were fantastic oysters. Shout to our server Dacota (?) Sara (?) who provided excellent service. Good local drafts & oysters. Perfect pairing.

Food was delicious and the service was impeccable! This is probably some of the best food my family has ever had. The waitstaff was extremely kind and accommodating, even putting a birthday candle in my Nana’s dessert. Definitely an amazing place to go!

We arrived at late 7pm with no reservation on a Sunday during a long holiday. The restaurant was packed with people big luckily we got a seat. The vibe was quite nice and the staff was surely helpful with loads of options. The lamb was great and the bread was lovely. Salad was of a much smaller portion than I expected though.

Not sure what was better, the food, or the servers! We had an all around excellent experience when our party of 7 came in for lunch last Sunday. The food was absolutely delicious, and the bar tender was super friendly. Highly recommend this place!

This is a nice little hole in the wall burger place! The burgers are huge and they give a nice serving of fries! I had the apple pie milkshake as well and I would definitely recommend! We had to wait a little bit for people to clear out to get a table, but we had one before our food came out.

I got the bacon cheeseburger and it was HUGE and delicious . Service was quick and they were friendly. I gave the food and service 5 ⭐️ but overall 4 ⭐️ because the bathroom was inoperable for men and women. No way to use the restroom or wash your hands. Wasn’t busy but seating is very limited. It was in the low 50’s so sitting outside wasn’t an option for me but seating is available outside.

My wife and I were craving burgers, so we decided to test this spot out. First time ordering and overall I'm satisfied with everything. - Cheeseburger (flavorful, fresh, and plenty of toppings) - Vanilla Peanut Butter Milkshake (absolutely delicious, but I'd recommend they provide customers a wider straw as the one they provide gets clogged up - I could taste yummy pieces of roasted peanuts which was a nice touch) We ordered via DoorDash, so I can't comment on their service and atmosphere. Highly recommend this spot if you're in the area looking for a tasty cheeseburger.

I recently had a fantastic experience at *The Wine Kitchen* in Leesburg. The food was absolutely delicious, and the service was exceptional. The staff made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire meal, which really added to the overall experience. One of the best things about the restaurant is how flexible they are with their dishes—you can easily adjust ingredients to suit your preferences, which I appreciated. The ambiance was lovely, creating a perfect setting for a relaxed yet upscale dining experience. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a place that offers great food, outstanding service, and a comfortable atmosphere.

We stopped in last minute late on a Friday night and they were nice enough to fit us in at the bar. The food was insanely delicious and the drinks scrumptious!!! The decreasing is so cute and the menus are lovely. I can't say enough. I want to go there again tonight. Yummmm!!!!

Had dinner at The Wine Kitchen in Leesburg, and while the food was mostly on point, the service left much to be desired. We sat at the bar and unfortunately, our server seemed completely disinterested in serving us, showing a noticeably different attitude when interacting with other (white, American) couples at the bar. It was disappointing to feel this lack of warmth and attentiveness, especially when dining out is supposed to be an enjoyable experience. On the bright side, the food was quite good overall, with fresh flavors and well-prepared dishes. However, the Spaghetti alla Norma missed the mark—burnt eggplant overpowered what should have been a standout dish. The rest of our meal was enjoyable, but the service really dampened the experience. It’s a shame, because the potential for a great evening was there.

We used to live in Leesburg and were at Lightfoot multiple times per week it was top notch back then. Then moved to WV. Today we were in the neighborhood again and had to stop in. It is still just an amazing experience with lovely ambience, delicious food and super friendly owner & staff. Got to chat with Ingrid who even remembered us. I had the BLT&C & husband had the berry french toast with chicken fingers. Both were so good!

Love this restaurant! The tomato soup was amazing as was the filet and berry desert. The waiter was one of the best we had ever had! I loved the doggie bag Would definitely return when in the area!!

Good food. Perfect for Brunch. They can make minute changes to dishes as in we asked to exclude meat in one dish and make it vegetarian. Must book a table in advance.

Celebrated our wedding after-party here and it was a phenomenal experience. We experienced a delay in arriving due to a transportation problem, but once our guests arrived the staff made sure our guests were quickly served. The drinks and food are all spectacular, and the Saturday night entertainment between the line dancing and DJ were exceptional. Would highly recommend for a wedding after-party Thank you all for making this night great.

We chose Loudoun Kitchen and Bar to host our wedding welcome party and we could not have been happier. Staff were incredibly flexible, allowing us to set up a limited tab on the day, and prepared a separate space for our party of around 25 with just a phone call. They also had a solid variety of drinks to accompany their finger food. Some standouts include their Espresso Martini, Crispy Cauliflower, and Soft Pretzels.

Friendly service. Large open areas. Occasional live music. Arcade area with up-to-date and brightly lit games. Billiard tables available. This is a place I would go back to regularly.
