    There is no separate way to review for sidebar coffee, so this is for sidebar COFFEE!…read more The little hole in the wall has earned my trust in downtown leesburg. I was just looking for some good coffee one morning when I saw a little hole in the wall and realized it's a little coffee shop! I've gotten an iced coffee there, and a matcha the next two times. Both are great. The baristas are all really nice and will very likely be able to make you something if you wanna tweak an item on the menu a bit. And, most importantly, their matcha is the real deal. It's not the bitter and awful cheap stuff that most cafes will sell to you for the same price. This is the good stuff, and you can tell they make any syrup they add to it in house. It's so refreshing. If you love coffee, and especially matcha, this place is it!

    Literally the worst service we have ever had…read more We had family in town and had never been here before. We were seated in the closed off dining area, to the right of the hostess desk. It took 10 mins for anyone to come see us. I had to get up to ask for someone to get our orders. To boot, the person who was supposed to assist us, was in the back hall by the restrooms texting and hanging out. I assume no one told her that we were there. The cider I ordered was warm, so I had to ask for a cup of ice at the bar. My husband's burger was meant to be medium well and it was raw. Lastly, it's extremely loud in that room. The chairs are metal, and when drug against the flooring, they make an awful sound! They really need a form of rubber on the legs. Very hard for grandma, who has hearing aids. Poor thing was so uncomfortable. The room next to us, with a door leading to the window to the kitchen, was so incredibly annoying. They were pounding the entire time we were seated, and it was LOUD! We all just sat completely silent. This was an incredibly disappointing visit and we will not come back.

    Fantastic deal Mon-Thur on prix fixe menus - free wine pairings!…read more Took my BFF for her birthday. We had the 3-course and shared all the delicious items. Appetizers calamari (unusual but really tasty crust) and sweet and sour cauliflower (different crust and crispy kale with yummy sauce). Entrees osso bucco and braised short ribs both really marvelous but the short ribs - oh.... They gave my friend her choice of any dessert for her birthday so she got the souffle with a fancy presentation. I splurged on the entremet which was gorgeous and yummy and not overly sweet despite being a million different chocolate things. I stuck to the sweet prosecco and my friend enjoyed several different wines - liking one red blend so much she bought a bottle. We capped the night with Carmel cappuccinos - smooth and creamy. The food and drinks were fantastic, as was the OUTSTANDING service we received from Jason. An excellent night - we'll be back!

    We have dined at The Conche several times over the years and have had generally good experiences…read morebut last night is likely our last time. We were here for a birthday meal for my husband, which we noted on the reservation. The good: Service, while not great, was ok. She asked if we were here for anything in particular and I mentioned his birthday (which in many places, they would have known from the notation on the reservation, but again, this was not something that bothered me in particular.) The rest: First, the food. Our appetizers were on the "specials": a watermelon salad and crab stuffed squash blossoms. The watermelon was good overall, but with the current issue of cyclospora outbreak, we probably would have picked something else if the menu had noted that one of the ingredients was arugula. I realize that this is just us being overly cautious but it would have been good to know in advance. The squash blossom stuffing tasted more like tuna than crabmeat. Edible but not that good. It got worse with entrees. Husband ordered the ribeye and I had the short rib. I was actually shocked to see that steak: it was SO thin. Wish I had thought to take a picture of it. Due to this, it was overcooked - almost impossible not to do so for such a thin piece of meat. A ribeye at Texas Roadhouse would have been superior to this, and probably half the price (it was criminal to charge $58 for this.) Also nowhere on the menu did it say that the seasoning in the steak was spicy. Again - would have ordered something else had he known that. Short rib was dry and the reduction sauce was overly salty. The goat cheese potato puree that accompanied both tasted good but there was so little of it that it was more of a suggestion of a side than an actual side. We skipped dessert and asked for the check, which took a long time to arrive. Eventually the waitress arrived, apologized for the wait, and set down an empty plate with "Happy Birthday" written in chocolate syrup with a birthday candle. Huh??? Either give some kind of dessert or don't bother! We would have rather had no acknowledgement than this waste of time and dirtying a plate. To be clear - we weren't looking for a free dessert; we were ready to go and would have ordered something if we wanted it. But this is just weird. I'm sorry to see this place go downhill. It is overpriced and lacking in the quality that it had in past years.

    I've been coming to this coffee shop for years and have always loved it (fantastic coffee and…read morewonderful food, plus friendly employees) but yesterday's visit was so unpleasant that I walked right back out. As soon as I stepped inside, an employee practically intercepted me with a rude "Can I help you?" and not in a welcoming way, but in a tone that made it clear she didn't want us there. When I said we were dining in, she told us the restaurant was full and that we could sit outside... in 100‑degree weather. The attitude was snotty, dismissive, and completely out of line. We felt like we were being treated as second‑class customers. Not welcoming at all. I'm genuinely disappointed. This used to be one of my favorite spots, but if this is the direction the service is heading, I'm not sure I'll be back.

    3.5/5 we sat outside where they have a large patio area great for groups. Service was a bit slow…read moreon a Saturday morning when it wasn't too busy. The food did come out fresh but the cost did not justify the portions. The chicken pesto caprese had good flavor while the burrito was very average and slightly bigger than Anita's. The bocce meatballs did taste authentic but could have used more sauce and garlic bread. Good cocktails and would come back for the drinks and patio ambiance
