I live in Fairfax City and work in Loudoun Co. and I must say that I have frequented several of the restaurants in that area. The Tuscarora was mediocre at best, the service at Clydes was so slow and Magnolia's was nice but nothing exceptional. My very favorite of all the restaurants in that area is The Lightfoot. The service... more

I have just read some of the recent reviews and must disagree with several of the comments posted. Lightfoot is the best restaurant in Leesburg and DOES NOT SERVE A $50 FILET as mentioned in a previous post. Service is always top notch and the food is the best in town. I would suggest a reservation on a Friday or... more

Although our sole experience at Lightfoot was a Sunday brunch, we'll definitely return. One immediately sees that the setting is quite handsome and inviting. Our table shared four entrees, all of which were very good, but the crab omelet was sensational. All the dishes used fresh ingredients creatively prepared and attractively served. Bread pudding topped with fried eggs and smoked... more

For a couple who rarely dines out, we decided to give Lightfoot a try after living in Leesburg for about a year. We had been to Tuskies and Magnolia Mill before and had been VERY pleased. Since we wanted a change of atmosphere and always admired the beauty of the historic building, we decided on Lightfoot. Given the slightly higher... more

A Leesburg establishment. A bit fancy-pants for me, but the food is great and really not all that expensive. Good entrees, but I usually stick to the meatloaf sandwich or the grilled cheese of the day. They sound simple and plain, but Lightfoot is spices them up real creative-like. Don't forget their desserts, either. more

Though I had never been to the restaurant before, I had heard good things. Turns out the food was excellent. Our server seemed to be new or just nervous - she dropped her napkin a few times, as well as a pen. I would recommend this restaurant, however, if you are looking for a romantic spot, this is not the... more

I have to say that the word "average" was running through my mind while having dinner at Lightfoot. The service was EXCELLENT... if only the food had lived up to the same standard. Dinner started with an appetizer of Fried Green Tomatoes. Ummm.... they were fried, they were green... and yes, they were tomoatoes. I will give them that. Beyond... more
