    Yummy place to Eat!
    Karen W.

    We happened to come across this secret gem of a restaurant by meandering down the sidewalk in search of a place to eat. We almost passed by, but then decided to give it a try because of the uniqueness of the name. We were delighted with every aspect of our visit. It did not disappoint! The pulled pork barbecued nachos melted in our mouths and the homemade chili was superb. The Reuben sandwich was the best I've ever tasted, especially with the homemade sourdough bread. We topped our dinner off with the guiltless mini desserts which were decadent to the pallet. Our server was very friendly and helpful with selections. We enjoyed our table side visit with Mike, who explained the process of using the Green Egg BBQ-er. WE WILL definitely go back and if you have any reservations about trying this quaint little place out, DON'T! This establishment pays attention to every detail, from the delicious food, right down to the atmosphere, decor and service.

    Trungo's is such a fun place to dine-in. My husband and I were concluding a great evening adventure in Leesburg and decided to try Trungo's for dinner. We were greeted warmly as soon as we entered and shown to a table. We did not have a reservation and I think our timing was perfect because there was a wait not long after we arrived. I ordered a Knot Head hard cider, which was local to Virginia and their specialty cheese stuffed ravioli. My husband ordered a beer and their pulled pork bbq dish. We also had a couple mini desserts to round out the evening. Everything was delicious. From the taste of the homemade pasta to the smokiness in the pulled pork. The staff is really friendly and attentive. There is local artwork for sale on display as well. I definitely recommend Trungo's to anyone who finds themselves looking for a bite in Leesburg. Thanks! :-)

    The first downtown restaurant I went to. I'm native here. Never been to a restaurant in downtown until I went here. At first I was skeptical. Waitress was awesome. German beer was great. The atmosphere is very inviting and cozy. The Mac n cheese is one of the best macs I've ever had. the jalapeños make it 10x times better. Me and my gf also had the charcuterie board. All the dishes were spot on. The taste of everything was perfect.

    We held at event at Trungo's and had a wonderful experience. The staff was really kind, the food was delicious, and the drink options were great! Highly recommend!

    Overpriced and pushy service. Disgusting Jackfruit and side of "carrots" were disappointing. Who screws up carrots? This place, that's who. We wanted to drink water because it was warm and we were trying to rehydrate. The server, however, really wanted us all to order drinks and even tried to convince our 12 year old she should get a soda. As the server gathered plates, the server commented how one of our children must have really liked his food because he cleaned his plate but never bothered to ask if the practically untouched Jack fruit was to our satisfaction. She just offered to put it in a box and when I said "no thank you" she never bothered to follow up to ask if it was ok. She was both annoying and thoughtless. By the way, Jackfruit is an item that a restaurant really needs to know how to prepare before putting it on the menu. They clearly do not.

    If you're in the area, definitely try out Trungos! The service and food is amazing, as well as the welcoming environment and staff. This place has the absolute best chili and bbq while also perfecting many plant based options. The bbq jackfruit is a beautiful texture with such a developed flavor you forget it's a plant! Pro tip: if you like it spicy, ask for the special spice blend (be careful, very hot)!

    Mikes spicy hot mix! A kind addition to the meal

    Came here with my grandparents and the food was awesome. Absolutely fantastic service from Emily- so super sweet! & Mikes spicy hot mix added on the gumbo is the best!! I will be back to get more pulled pork nachos for sure- the bbq sauce on there was to die for. Loved the art on the walls too.

    Pulled pork sandwich before...

    Unique menu of lightly smoked meats prepared on premise in green egg smoker. Menu is stylishly limited, but still provides many good choices. Service is excellent: courteous, attentive and timely. Over a few visits, we tried an excellent Caesar salad with authentic house made dressing, boneless short ribs, Cajun gumbo, and of course the house specialty pulled pork grilled cheese. All were nicely prepared and tasted delicious. Luckily we had room for the mini dessert - pot re creme chocolat, which left us with a nice finish and a desire to return soon.

    My boyfriend and I went to dinner last night and as always, it was such an amazing experience…read more Anytime we're in town, this is the number one place we go! It's truly one of our favorites and never disappoints. The food was absolutely incredible (as expected). We also want to give a special shoutout to our waiter, who was in training he did an amazing job! He was attentive, friendly, and made our experience feel seamless. We love this place so much and will definitely keep coming back every chance we get!

    I rate restaurants within their category and concept. I am not comparing a pasta tasting menu spot…read moreto a Michelin star fine dining restaurant. If a place executes its vision at a high level and exceeds expectations for its lane, that is a 5 star experience to me. And this meal absolutely did that. We relocated to Northern Virginia a couple of years ago, so we have been exploring the dining scene here with fresh eyes. Since moving, we have visited The Wine Kitchen several times, and each visit has been consistently impressive. They are truly a gem in Leesburg. We went with the pasta tasting menu and it was an outstanding, technique driven progression that really showcased the kitchen's command of fresh pasta and sauce work. The pasta itself was the foundation of the experience, clearly house made, with impeccable texture across every course. Each shape was cooked to a true al dente, with that ideal balance of tenderness and bite that only comes from properly handled fresh dough. Nothing felt heavy or muddled, which is no small feat in a multi course pasta progression. The mushroom tortellini in brodo was beautifully restrained. The broth had deep umami from the mushroom parmesan base, yet remained clean and structured, allowing the delicate tortellini filling and chestnut mushrooms to shine. The truffled Alfredo could have easily gone overboard, but the richness was controlled, silky, properly emulsified, and well seasoned, with the truffle supporting rather than overwhelming the dish. The lobster ravioli was another technically strong plate. The pasta was thin and tender, the filling sweet and delicate, and the crab fat sauce added depth while the ginger Calabrian soffritto brought a subtle lift of heat and brightness that kept the dish from feeling too rich. The short rib rotolo delivered deep, slow cooked savoriness, balanced nicely by the ricotta and the earthy luxury of the truffle fonduta. What really made the dish stand out for me were the crispy edges on the pasta, which added a beautiful textural contrast to the tender filling. For dessert, we enjoyed the tasting menu dessert and also added the cornflake French toast. The French toast completely wowed us. Texturally, it was outstanding, crisp exterior, custardy interior, and that nostalgic cornflake crunch elevated into something refined. It had richness, sweetness, and contrast in all the right ways, and ended up being my favorite of the two desserts. Overall, this is how you do a pasta focused tasting menu with finesse, strong technique, thoughtful balance, and flavors that feel indulgent without becoming heavy. In its category, this was a 5 star experience for me, and I would absolutely come back.

I am new in town and did not know much about the venue or the town. Leesburg is very charming and we can't wait to revisit. It seemed like this venue was a bar-food type restaurant that may have failed, so they did a little remodeling, changed the menu, kept the same chef, the staff, and increased their prices. The chef is just not trained in seafood. The prices are inflated especially as the seafood wasn't seem fresh. The waiters were really nice guys, but seemed out of their league as they were not properly trained. So we made sure to take care of them. For example, when the waiters saw both my wife and I barely had our food, neither asked if there was a problem. Makes you wonder if they are accustomed to the reaction. Anyway, I would stay away.

Not only were the lower-priced entrees gone from the menu, but several dishes we saw online and specifically came to try (the paella and linguini with clams) were nowhere to be found. I contacted the restaurant to let them know (on Facebook, since their webpage didn't allow me to comment or provide an email address), asking for nothing other than a manager's response and a commitment to correct this immediately, but there's been no response. Many people choose restaurants based on their online menu and this just shows a lack of respect for customers and poor business practices. I won't go back.

For drinks, The Moussetache was smooth and velvety with rich chocolate notes, while Fetish felt like a true dessert in a glass, decadent and indulgent. The espressotini had a bold coffee kick, and the Passion Agave mocktail was light and refreshing. The entrees were just as impressive. The Conche Burger was juicy and flavorful with subtle cocoa depth, the Harissa Chicken Sizzle came out tender with a nice balance of heat and smoky sweetness, and the Ribeye was perfectly cooked, rich, and elevated by their signature touch. The ambiance is warm, modern, and intimate, perfect for a date night or a special dinner. Service was attentive and welcoming, and they even surprised us with a birthday dessert of assorted chocolates, which was such a thoughtful touch.

We chose the Variety Tasting which included more reds and two fruity non-alcohol options. Leslie who was behind the bar helping us was excellent! Her experience shows through her knowledge as she walked us through the various wines & answered our questions. I felt like she really listened and catered the whole experience towards our preferences! The wine tasting bar area is standing only with no stools so that was the only downside in my opinion. We ended up signing up for their Wine Club (2 bottles/ month option), as the price of the wine tasting almost equated to that price. We decided it was a good deal, as our wine tasting ended up being free and we received 2 bottles and 2 wine glasses. My boyfriend has been here for their food and shared it was good.

Nice, roomy restaurant which never came close to filling up on a Saturday lunch. Booze was tasty but lotsa ice. Kids meals were likely the best deal.

Kinda just stood around chatting until they were required to act when customers walked up to them to get help. Kitchen staff was hopping! But. The food. Um. Not yum. But not entirely horrible either. Seemed like a lot of stuff was from the night before. Warmed over yet not hot nor warm by the time it got to the table. Stuff under the heat lamp too long got over cooked while the stuff underneath the overcooked stuff was lukewarm to cold. Would think one couldn't mess up donuts, but these were fried in old oil (probably from the night before since we arrived at opening). Blobs of bland dough that were really dark on the outside but gooey, mushy, and not thoroughly cooked on the inside. That bitter taste from old oil really ruined any hope of enjoying what sounded delish on the menu. The donuts were rather disgusting. In general, the food just didn't taste really fresh or mouthwatering. Salty, maybe. From the bread to the entrees, most everything fell flat. An expensive flat. Worth the drive? Overall, while we had good service minus the hostesses, the food & value just doesn't warrant giving it another shot, which is disappointing. It's a place you'd want to really like, but it's missing something significant that makes you want to return to give it one more try. Just wish the food had been a lot better.
