What an incredible experience! This place is definitely super fancy and romantic. Came here with a group of friends, and had a great time. Our reach was really funny and accommodating, and we really enjoyed our meal. From the appetizer, the drinks, our main entrées, and the amazing desserts. I absolutely loved the bread pudding. It had a perfectly crunchy outside, and a yummy custard inside. read more

Sunday brunch was delicious and staff very attentive. The buffet brunch had several options for our large group and food was delicious . Will definitely need to go back and try more - I was too stuffed from my first 3 plates to try more. read more

We really enjoy the history that is Leesburg and the mill is an integral part of the story. Having opened 40'ish years ago it's served thousands and we keep going back. The character matched by the food makes this a pretty safe bet. read more

They were able to take our group of 8 with a phone call. Upon arrival, they had our table set up. Service was excellent. Our server was knowledgeable and friendly. The food can out quickly. We all got different things. Everything looked good. I had the crab appetizer for a light lunch and it was so good.this is a classy establishment and we all enjoyed ourselves. read more

Tuscarora Mill - Iced tea! They kept my glass filled. - New American Near Me - Leesburg, Virginia

We have been here couple of years before and back then I didn't really liked it, but my husband insisted to give it another chance. I would give 3,5 stars, actually. The restaurant is composed from 2 spaces : one with the bar( more casual) and second is more formal with white tablecloth nicely served tables ( opens at 4:30) The waiters are very attentive, but it's takes a while to be serviced. This time for starter we had honey glazed pork belly ( a bit too much glaze , which is kinda killing the pork belly taste) then I had fillet mignon ( came medium rare with blood first time, after I asked to cook it till medium came a bit overcooked) my daughter chicken & fries ( she is always happy with) and my husband had beef & scallops, paired with a glass of wine and followed by creme brûlée and cheesecake. Food was fine, nicely plated, but in my opinion is a bit overpriced. read more

Great food and atmosphere. Their brunches are amazing as well and the staff is super friendly. The place can get packed on the weekends so I recommend making a reservation. Always a great place to eat. The only negative is that parking can be challenging so just know that going in. read more

Service was A+, food was A+, atmosphere was an A+. It is no wonder that this establishment has been a Leesburg staple for decades. We made a reservation through Open Table to celebrate our anniversary. I didn't add that as the reason we were coming but apparently Open Table shared that information with the establishment. When we were seated we were given personalized menus wishing us a Happy Anniversary. We have been coming here for over 25 years and the experience is always consistently excellent. read more

Can't really go wrong with this place. Great quality, great taste. The serving sizes are perfect in the sense that it's unlikely you will take a lot back home. They're on the "smaller" size, but not in a bad way. I loved my entree and I always do. Their desserts and drinks are also very good! Personally, I would still pick Clyde's over Tuskies but that's because of the serving size to price ratio! I also think when you get OG servers who have been there a while, that also feels better and adds a personable touch that cannot be replaced! read more

Recently, my husband was asking about other restaurants in Leesburg, wondering if there are any good ones that we haven't tried yet. So, I started looking around online and came across "Tuskies," also known as Tuscarora Mill. Although it has been around for years, we never thought to try it. This was partly because it struck me as an upscale establishment where one had to dress up to be there. It turns out that, despite giving off an upscale vibe, there is no dress code. We saw those who dressed up to attend, and we also saw those who showed up in shorts and flip-flops. We were here on a Saturday for an early dinner and had a reservation for 5 p.m. However, we arrived early, and they had no problems seating us. We were taken to a small side room that had about 5 tables in it. Our table was a 2 top that was spacious enough, as it had plenty of room for all our food. We also had a window view. Our server was an older man who was very well-versed in the menu. We were impressed when he rattled off the daily specials without using a cheat sheet... well, only towards the end of his recitation did he have to check his list. We started with drinks. I had a mango mojito, which was well-made, as I could clearly taste the mango in it. My husband had a Michelob Ultra. We started with an appetizer, "Heirloom tomato and burrata" which consists of: "dill tomato vinaigrette, red onions, basil, pine nuts, aged balsamic". The star of this dish was the heirloom tomatoes. We could tell that these were freshly picked, as if they had been picked up at a farmers' market. There was no red onion, which was fine with me, and the pine nuts were tiny and easy to miss.. We were also given some bread that our server said was baked fresh at a nearby bakery. The bread was good, and we chose to use the olive oil that was on the table. It turned out to be a bit too bitter, so next time, we both agree, we'll ask for butter. For my main course, I ordered "Grilled Creole seasoned trout," which consists of: "lump crab meat, almond butter, whipped potatoes, asparagus, carrots, and capers". Our server asked if I wanted one or two pieces of trout. I chose to have one piece (which turned out to be a good idea). The crab meat portion was tiny. The trout was properly cooked and seasoned just right, as none of the seasoning overpowered the trout. The veggies were sautéed and tender, with a flavorful taste. The capers were really tiny, but I was able to get them onto my fork. My husband ordered one of the daily specials, which was a 15 oz. New York Strip. The steak was very flavorful, but it had too much fat and gristle. Overall it was disappointing. We both had some crème brûlée for dessert. It came with a snickerdoodle cookie and is topped with fresh strawberries. One thing that disappointed us was that the crème brûlée lacked the flavor of vanilla beans: it was creamy, but bland. Prices are rather high for this venue. read more

My husband and I treated my parents to a fancy night out at Tuskies while they were here visiting from England. Our meal was amazing, our server was incredible too and made the evening even more comfortable. The restaurant gives the best ambiance and we were all just happy to be there. Only feedback is that the spacing between the courses should have been longer..... we were still eating our apps when the entrees arrived which was annoying ..... also, the bacon on the Pork Ribeye entree was very flabby and should have been more rendered and crispy so it would be more palatable. We know now to make a point at asking for a long time between courses when we visit next time. And there WILL be a next time read more

What a gem! From Richmond but always in the hunt for great food, great chef and perfect environment. Drove up to Leesburg at Christmas for shopping at Coach, Vera Bradley and Kate Spade but the highlight of the whole day was the little town of Leesburg and this gem of a find in downtown. Not one thing on the menu was small town other than the very warm comfortable environment. A duck breast lunch with a fig and bacon vinaigrette,a carrot soup with lobster, a pumpkin ravioli and a crab cake poached egg hollandaise topped off with Chocolate tinis. Driving back next weekend for the trout and skipping the outlet mall. Will find a B&B. Truly unique and wonderful. Wait staff is wonderful. A must do. Top notch. read more

My wife and I met another "old friends" couple here in November for a luncheon visit. For appetizers, we shared fried green tomatoes and calamari. The fried green tomatoes were the best I've ever had, and the calamari was excellent also. My wife and I both had the flank steak luncheon entrée with mashed potatoes and French green beans. Both steak entries were done exactly as requested (rare and medium rare), the mashed potatoes were very good, and the green beans were probably also the best I've ever had. The other couple both had a daily special of sautéed flounder. It looked very tasty. The service was excellent. This is a fairly expensive place to eat, but the quality of the food, the great service, and the warm ambience make it well worth the cost of dining here. read more

Probably the best upscale restaurant in Leesburg. Professionalism, white table clothes, servers with ties, and nightly specials. The grand restaurants continues to not only survive but excels. Last night was no exception. I had the smoked chicken rigatoni and my spouse has the halibut special. Both done as expected which was great. Server was a seasoned pro, great drinks, loved the evening, read more

I was greeted by a customized menu here for my anniversary despite booking that morning! It was such a thoughtful touch! The food was great too-- we loved the wedge and crab cakes. The scallops were tender and perfectly cooked. The au jus was super flavorful and the perfect dinner sandwich. And to top it off-- the cheesecake beignets were light and creamy! Great date night spot with a large wine selection! Will be coming back for more read more

Exceptional service, professional staff. Outstanding beer and wine list. Food is very good. We both had fish but beef specials looked yummy. We will return read more

Tuskies is one of those rare spots that fits just about every occasion. We've been there for date nights, business dinners, and casual hangs with friends. The menu is always reliable. The food never disappoints. Start with the bread. Drench it in their olive oil with salt and pepper. Order a dirty. They are strong and always come with GREAT blue cheese stuffed olives. Ask to sit in the bar section. It's a bit more casual, but the service is always consistently great. The servers up there are attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely seem to care that you have a great time. read more

Tuscarora Mill - Med rare hamberger - New American Near Me - Leesburg, Virginia

After a very long drive, we arrived earlier than expected and the staff was accommodating to help us get seated since we were so tired and hungry at that point. We enjoyed our cocktails and meals. Service was quick, but not too hurried, and friendly. The bread is soft and warm. We started with the goat cheese app, which was decadent and delicious, and the lobster app, which was light and flavorful. I had the trout, which I enjoyed and he had the rib eye, which he liked. For drinks we had the Sweet Baby Rye and the Catoctann - we couldn't decide which we liked best, they were both so good. read more

Really unfortunate experience here for our anniversary the other night. It was our first time back in awhile and it had the promise of being great, but our server was over-sat and, despite his best efforts, he simply couldn't keep up. We were left waiting and staring quite often during the meal. Which was very disappointing for our anniversary dinner. The food was pretty damn good, but it just couldn't overcome the service. read more

Went to the Sunday brunch buffet with my parents and a friend from out of town. The spread was delightful. They had an omelette station, roast beef carving station, a fruit/dessert station (I heard the bread pudding was divine) and plenty of savory and sweet breakfast and lunch options. I have been here for dinner before and love the cozy atmosphere. It was hopping so service was a little slower than usual, but our server very friendly and helpful. I liked it for dinner now I like it for brunch. read more

An absolutely lovely space to celebrate a special birthday dinner with some good friends. We were sat in the garden room which had high ceilings, stained glass windows, and lots of beautiful planters filled with hanging vines and climbing flowers. Our table tried the fried green tomatoes, oysters of the day, and a smattering of all the restaurant's most loved dishes including the duck breast, pasta, steak tips and scallops, and the seafood salad (which seemed to be the winning item of the year). Everything came out beautifully plated with tons of color that just made you excited for spring. Save room for dessert -- the cheesecake beignets, chocolate pecan pie, and chocolate peanut butter pie were our favorites and were perfect with a nice latte to end our meal. Service was very relaxed and never felt rushed. Truly a gem in Leesburg! read more

The food is always delicious and the portions are just right to fill you up. We love sitting in the bar area. read more

A most excellent experience! We went for a casual dinner and I would say the interior was like an upscale bar and grill (think: dim and romantic lighting with wood and leather decor). I noticed there was another room next to ours that was bright and garden themed. Our waitress was awesome- and took such a great care of our son's girlfriend who has to avoid quite a few foods. When we asked about gluten free plates, she even made the distinction between Celiac's and GF in general. This restaurant was one of the best in regards to dietary restrictions and guidelines with many options. Everyone at the table enjoyed their food and cleaned their plates- but the service commitment to the small details - that was incredible! read more

Crab cakes are filled with crab, and they didn't fall apart, which is very difficult--even for seasoned chefs. It's paired well with the fried tomatoes and vegetables. They get their bread from the bakery down the street, and it is so good with the dipping oil! They have a variety of seasonal entrees and this time they had the elk, which is kind of a cross between beef and deer meat. It was well cooked at medium rare. While it is quite expensive, the meals are cooked with notable skill. read more

This review is for brunch only. Restaurant is in historical district,building is obviously really old and it's seems outdated from the entrance. Brunch room was quite small and not much space for buffet, not very much light. But sitting area was beautiful with high ceilings,beautiful courtyard views and floral arrangement. Food was very good,my favorites were salmon entree,tomatoes carpaccio style appetizer, fried chicken and amazing bread pudding. Service was excellent,overall very positive experience and one of the best brunch food in DC area for sure. read more

Attended the service at Cornerstone Chapel today and came here for lunch. The buffet looks very nice but we opted for the menu items. The food we ordered are all delicious.

Make a reservation! Beautiful space with rooms with different ambiances and moods. They seemed understaffed, as our waiter was taking care of our entire room. Bread finally came out after 2 interactions with the waiter and us asking twice. The food took a bit to come out so I'm assuming the entire night was understaffed. Although it took a while, the food was hot and fresh. I would go back in the spring and sit outside for their brunch read more

I finally was able to make a visit and had a small group for their brunch celebrating my brother birthday. This restaurant was located on Harrison St, next to Fire Works Pizza. There is street parking, limited parking spaces in front of restaurant as well parking spaces at Fire Works Pizza too. As you walked in, turn right then left to the hostess stand around the corner. If you go straight, you'll walk into the bar area. You can get your food from brunch ala carte area as well from the menu. The brunch area is small but it's very casual, cozy and nicely organized from appetizers, French toast, baked salmon, other proteins, seasoned flank steaks, seafood such as shrimp cocktail, smoked salmon and mussels. Also on the brunch are vegetables, charcuterie, sushi, penne pasta, MYO omelet station and dessert station. Our server Kristin A was very attentive, friendly and knowledgeable. The restaurant is clean, brunch buffet is from 11a-3p and reservations is recommended. We are still talking about the delicious and decadent food items that were served. We will definitely will make a future visit because it didn't disappoint. read more

Amazing meal. From start to finish. Our sever Danielle was equally impressive. STARTERS - we had the Crispy Curry Oysters and Beef Fondue. WOW. 2 of the best Apps we've ever had. A hint of curry and sweetness that complimented the oysters and the Beef was incredibly tender with outstanding Blue cheese fondue MAIN - the Pork Ribeye was absolutely delicious !!! So tender and cooked perfectly. It didn't need the sauce but that was really good as well. The Fennel & Apples with bits of smoked pork belly topped off the dish. I'd go out of my way for this. My wife ordered the Salmon and that was incredible as well. Thank you Tuskies for making our Celebratory meal absolutely awesome. Can't wait to come back for any meal !!! read more

In the area for a wedding. They worked in our party of 5 on a busy Evening. I recommend reservations. Very attentive prompt service. Grain salad with sliced flank steak was delicious. Great date place. read more

This is hands down the best Sunday brunch I have ever experienced in my life. They had so many varieties of foods, including all the breakfast options and then some additional things like pastas and steaks and seafood. Just an incredible buffet and a great reward after a weekend of long hikes or big lifts for me. Pro tip: Leave at least one person at your table because it is so popular the server will literally clear your table and seat someone else if everyone in your party gets up to go get more food. Seriously, it happened to me. read more

Tuscarora Mill - Summer Risotto with Salmon - New American Near Me - Leesburg, Virginia

Met a friend for brunch - yes, I highly recommend having a reservation. We both opted for the buffet and I enjoyed it so much I only took a photo of my first plate. Everything was delicious and they were constantly replenishing dishes at the buffet. I'm not a huge fan of shrimp and grits, but loved these. Our waiter was so thoughtful - The sun was shining on our table and melting the ice in our beverages so he brought us cups of ice! The space is packed with tables making it a little bit difficult to maneuver to/from the buffet, but otherwise a great option for Sunday brunch! read more

Flank steak tastes like rubber, fries and mash potatoes came out cold. Trash never again I'm going here

Stopped here for dinner in a Monday night and I have to say everything was perfect. The atmosphere of the restaurant is amazing, service was excellent and everything we ate was exceptional. We started with the ciabatta bread dipped in olive oil, had the goat cheese dip, my husband had the special of the night, bison with mushrooms and potatoes, and pecan pie topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. For drinks we had the smoky mezcal drink. I had an Angus burger with blue cheese and the apple cobbler with a scoop of ice cream. We absolutely love this place and highly recommend trying it at least once. read more

This was a cool little spot for our Saturday brunch. It's a little confusing when you walk inside because the host stand is so far back but otherwise when you walk in it has an old restaurant feel to it. Then when go further back it shifts into more of a fine dining feel. We were seated in the fine dining area by the windows, it was super cute. The drinks were really good. We had blackberry and the tuskie brunch mimosas, both were delicious l. Highly recommend you have one if you visit. The food is where they started to fall a little flat. I ordered French toast and it was pretty raw. The bread was so mushy, the egg and milk mixture was clearly not cooked at all. My friend had the eggs Benedict and it was fine. The green beans weren't very good but otherwise nothing to write home about. Regardless if you're in the area I recommend you give this place a try, their full menu had a lot of delicious looking options we plan to return for and give a try. read more
