2 Best Restaurants in Leesburg, Northern Virginia

Lightfoot Restaurant

$$$

Housed in a Romanesque-Revival building (1888), this restaurant was the Peoples National Bank for more than half a century. Restored to its original grandeur, the restaurant was named in honor of Francis Lightfoot Lee, a signer of the Declaration of Independence. One of the wine "cellars" is actually the bank's vault. The seasonal American cuisine, based on local ingredients, includes meat and seafood with a regional spin.

The Wine Kitchen

$$
Loudoun County food and wine are celebrated at this cozy neighborhood eatery on downtown Leesburg’s main drag. The menu here changes as fresh ingredients are available—in fact, it’s not unlikely for diners to see farmers carting in produce straight from the fields----but expect twists on comfort food. The wine list includes a flight of local varietals. There are two other locations in Purcellville, VA and Frederick, MD.
