The Conche - Leesburg

I have been waiting forever to come here so I had high hopes since this place was hyped up for a long time after it opened. Sadly, it did not live up to the hype for me. We made reservations for 5pm and I had requested a quieter table if possible for my hearing impaired husband who doesn’t do well with a lot of background noise. We always understand if that’s not possible. However, the place was empty and we were sat at a 2 seater right near the kitchen where all of the employees gathered right behind us and chatted away. And, who wants to be right by the kitchen?? We ordered the pork bun appetizer. Delish! Solid dish. For entree’s we ordered the ribeye and the scallops. When one orders a ribeye they don’t expect a 1” thin slice of meat. You want a hunk of deliciousness. And since it was so thin it was a bit over cooked (asked for medium rare). The flavor was good though. The purée it sat on was fantastic! But so little of it. The scallopswhat a disaster. Two were crunchy withsand?? One entirely inedible. They cooked one single new one and brought it to us. It was crunchy too. I mean break your teeth crystals of I dunno what. We just shut up at that point realizing it’s not going to get any better. For dessert we ordered the monkey bread. It was tasty! But not much monkey bread compared to topping ice cream and whipped cream. Service was fine. No complaints there. A nice gentleman waited on us. All in all, not worth $200. Photo of the only yummy optimistic part of the meal. Everything went downhill after.

Took my wife here to celebrate our anniversary last night. So glad we finally tried it. The food was absolutely incredible and the service was first rate. Loved the atmosphere and we had a blast. We will definitely return and try all the chocolate. I highly recommend. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Service was fine, food was an issue though. The sweet and sour cauliflower and harissa chicken sizzler were both big misses for us. The campanelle pasta was good, but it leaves a bad taste in my mouth to be out $120 for meh food overall. Won't be coming back Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $50–100 Food: 2 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4

Excellent attention to the customers and great food. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

We arrived at 5:00, the restaurant closed after lunch/ brunch at 2:00 and reopened at 4:00 for dinner. It was sparse of diners, but the server took so long to greet us, so we went to the bar to order our own drinks. When the waitress did show up, she seemed unremarkably aware that we had to go to the bar ourselves. Once that kerfuffle had passed, the food order was expedient and delicious. We ordered that gastronomic burger with Sriracha fries (amazing) and the shrimp and grits. Food A+, service C. We may repeat if we're in the area, but I'm not sure I would go out of my way to revisit. As a side note, their chocolate counter is beyond delicious.
