Enjoy a refreshing, palette-discriminating menu in a relaxed yet classy atmosphere. For me, the Wine Kitchen has it all and has only gotten better . . . it is still an “anchor” restaurant in the very happening, downtown district of Leesburg, VA that other restaurant owners are and should be trying to mirror.
Having lived and worked alongside many business owners now for over 20 years in Leesburg, many friends and clients who know I love to cook (and eat!) ask me where to find great food and wine. The Wine Kitchen, as I've written about in the past when it first opened, remains one of my favorites! Their food and wines are superb, and because "thank goodness" they offer imports from countries like Italy and Spain (more) where they regulate what goes into their wines. Natural ingredients are used - not the food coloring and nasty chemicals and preservatives our bodies reject with headaches, and unlike many US wines without regulation. This is a one of a few important reasons why I frequent the Wine Kitchen over other restaurants and continue to recommend it to family, friends and newcomers to Leesburg, VA.The Wine Kitchen's willingness to educate us, while adding a bit of "social" to our dining experience, adds a very special touch while serving your wine with one of their own personal/descriptive Wine Cards. Have some fun in deciphering if your own experience or palette matches the poetic journey they describe on this little card, and keep it even as a keep-sake for that special occasion or night.
The Wine Kitchen has paired their wines with local farms in a relaxed yet hip style, while the demeanor of its available Executive Chef, Tim Rowley, is a prized possession as he listens to his guests. Not only does the Chef incorporate current trends, the Wine Kitchen is now offering a full array of impressive cocktails with an impressive Happy Hour you shouldn't miss! The staff, some of my favorites being Agnes and Morgan, are "excellent" and I am brought back because they not only know their wines, food and specialty cheeses to a very impressive degree, but their decorum is as if they were hand-picked for this restaurant.
Upcoming events to pop by the Wine Kitchen for:
- Tuesdays are "Flight Nights"
