We're relocating here in the next few months. Can someone familiar with this area suggest a handful of restaurants that we might want to visit? We've done Zeferrelli's, Tuscarolla Mill and the Lightfoot so far. We like everything from Mom and Pop places to white table cloth places.

Also, have only stayed at the Lansdowne Resort. Are there B & B's or other hotels that we should consider in our visits for house hunting?

If you are looking for a more affordable place to stay, but still a very nice place, try this:

We stayed there three weekends last year while househunting in the greater Leesburg area. We decided not to move there, but that was a very nice hotel base.

Quite frankly, we have not been very inpressed w/dining there so I have no recommendations in that area for you.

BTW, we sprang for the king jacuzzi suites at that hotel and it was really worth it. A lot of space, a kitchen, a huge bath w/jacuzzi, and a big bedrm and separate living area. It felt like a full size apartment.

I lived in Loudoun County where Leesburg is located for about 11 years until about a year ago so I can offer many suggestions. Here are some suggestions without knowing your budget or preferences or distance from Leesburg you are willing to go.

Mexican - Casa Gonzales (hole in wall in Leesburg but great mexican)

American - Magnolias in Purcellville (10 mins West) Grain Mill converted/renovated into upscale restaurant by same team as Tuscarora Mill.

Asian/Pacific Rim - Pacific in Sterling (15 mins East) Interesting menu.

Japanese - Kobe in Leesburg is ok (but Nagoya in Ashburn 10 mins away is better)

Breakfast - Leesburg Restaurant (hole in wall in old town but good for breakfast)

anyone else got suggestions?
