The sandwich was at least overflowing and the bread tasty, sort of a cheddar jalapeño bread but..something was definitely missing in the chicken. At least it was reasonably priced at $9.50 but they will nickel and dime for anything else on it. The kids menu is Expensive! For the price of a PB&J, you could buy a loaf of bread, a jar of peanut butter, and a jar of jelly and make 10 of them. I think they tried to price kids items like adult meals. It was crowded at lunch time, some inside seating, looked like more outside. Parking is in a lot nearby but can fill up. Plenty of drinks and such. Kind of an ordinary deli with comparatively good prices for adult meals when held up against other places in the area.

I'm from NY and their title included New York Deli, so that was a positive sign. I went there, checked out the menu and ordered a Verrazano, which is a Roast Beef and Turkey with Provolone. I asked if I could substitute Pastrami for the Roast Beef and the counter guy said okay. Great. Paid, tipped and went home. Pop open a Heineken, opened the bag ready to eat and there was no Pastrami on the sandwich. There wasn't even Roast Beef. It was only Turkey. So I paid for a 2 meat option but got only 1. Normally I would call and go back to correct the order, but That was a huge miss, so I just ate the Turkey Sandwich and called it a day and needless to say, won't be going back.

I thought the ratio of meat to bread and just enough veggies was very good. It also had just enough mayo. If I could change one thing, I'd add more hot peppers but still a great sub. It also comes with two pickle spears. The lady who took my order was also very nice. I'd definitely go back again to try one of their other subs. Definitely worth it.

The workers were very friendly and kind but I can't justify frequenting at that price point. $31 for a lunch that's mostly bread is just too much.

I tried the limited-time Fiery Island Chicken sandwich and thought it was very good overall. It had…read moreplenty of spice and great flavor. I'm not someone who likes a lot of sauce on a sandwich, sub, or hoagie, and this one was a little over-sauced for me--almost enough to make you wonder what they were trying to cover up. A lighter hand with the sauce would have made it even better. My bigger issue was the mobile-order pickup process. The order was ready when we arrived, but the designated pickup area was completely empty because all the mobile orders were being kept behind the counter. That meant I couldn't simply grab my order and go; I had to wait for a break in the regular line, give an employee my name, and have him retrieve it. I understand they may be dealing with people taking the wrong orders or stealing them, but that defeats much of the purpose of ordering ahead. If the pickup shelves are no longer going to be used, they should move the furniture out of the doorway. Right now, it provides no benefit and is simply an obstacle. Otherwise, the restaurant was clean, the sandwich was good, and the staff had the order ready. Leesburg was unusually busy for a Friday, so that may have contributed. I would eat here again--I'd just ask for less sauce and hope they improve the mobile-pickup setup.

MELT Gourmet Cheeseburgers must be operated by culinary lunatics. I mean that as the highest…read morepossible compliment. A normal person looks at a hamburger and asks, "Would you like cheese on that?" The people at MELT apparently look at one and ask, "How can we make this so extraordinary that customers begin questioning whether everything they previously called a burger was actually just meat occupying bread?" I ordered the Paris Burger: Premium beef char-grilled with roasted garlic, then topped with melted French Brie, balsamic-glazed onions, baby spinach, and a smear of Dijon mustard on a house-made bun. This ingredient list sounds less like a hamburger and more like several upscale appetizers became trapped in an elevator and decided to form a government. I do not know what kind of inspired nut job first assembled this combination, but everything contributes to everything else. The Brie, roasted garlic, sweet richness of the balsamic-glazed onions, spinach, and Dijon do not compete for attention; they cooperate with suspicious precision. The flavor is exquisite. This should not be placed in the same category as ordinary burgers unless the category is titled "Round Foods That Technically Contain Beef." And then there is the bun. Most hamburger buns eventually choose one of two career paths: Damp sponge or roofing material. This one rejected both. It was cooked to that nearly mythical point between soft and soggy, firm and crunchy. It supported the burger without collapsing, disintegrating, or scraping the roof of my mouth like an edible Brillo pad. Perfection. For a side, I ordered the sweet potato fries. They were already very good, which apparently was considered insufficient by the resident mad scientists. Someone had the completely unreasonable idea of serving them with marshmallow fluff. Marshmallow fluff. With sweet potato fries. This sounds like a suggestion made at 2:00 a.m. by someone who should have been politely escorted away from the kitchen. Instead, that person may be a genius. The combination is incredible. The salty sweet potato fries dipped in marshmallow fluff produced one of those moments when your brain objects on principle while your hand quietly reaches for another fry. This proves that not every insane idea is crazy; some merely require dipping sauce. I also had the Thin Mint shake, which was excellent except for the only legitimate complaint I could manufacture during the entire meal: It came with an ordinary straw. Every attempt to drink it became a small plumbing emergency when a piece of Thin Mint lodged in the opening. Sip, blockage, investigate, clear obstruction, repeat. I was not drinking a milkshake so much as performing routine maintenance on a delicious cookie pipeline. A proper milkshake straw would eliminate the one defect in an otherwise outstanding operation. This was not merely a good meal from a burger joint. It was a culinary experience disguised as casual food. The Paris Burger was phenomenal, the fries and marshmallow fluff were an act of benevolent madness, and even my complaint involves the shake containing too many actual pieces of Thin Mint to pass through standard beverage infrastructure. MELT is almost worth traveling to Virginia for by itself. If the people running this place are insane, nobody intervene. Whatever treatment would make them normal might ruin the menu.

The farm‑to‑table food is consistently high‑quality, the employees are friendly, and the whole place has such a charming, cozy ambiance. It's truly one of the cutest spaces in town. The food is on the pricier side, but honestly, everything is these days and the quality here usually makes it worth it. They offer both indoor and outdoor dining, which I've always appreciated. My only real concern is the current indoor seating setup. The dining area is now limited to one very small room inside the house with tightly packed tables, and it's noticeably uncomfortable compared to how it used to be. In the past, seating was spread throughout the connected house on the property, which made the experience feel relaxed and welcoming. Now, most of those rooms seem to be used for gift‑shop retail space instead. While the shop is lovely, I can't help but feel that expanding indoor dining again would serve customers and the business far better than the retail rooms. People who buy high‑quality, fairly pricey food want a comfortable place to sit and enjoy it. I truly love this place and hope they consider bringing back more indoor seating. It's a gem in Leesburg, and with a few adjustments, it could be even better.

So, my baseline remains at what I remember about the MD location I frequented often. It was reliably delicious. Today's visit at the Leesburg location was a pleasant one. Staff were pleasant, welcoming, helpful. The restaurant itself was fairly clean, though upon entering, a table hadn't been wiped off, and there aren't many tables in this small space. Fortunately, it wasn't too crowded. The food was ok. Whiie it was too salty at the Sterling location, it was a bit bland and really greasy at the Leesburg location. When they're running Specials, these are the best value based on portion, what's included, quality, and cost. Don't get me wrong, portions aren't shockingly skimpy. They'll fill you up. Worth the drive? Maybe if I have time to kill to drive 30+ miles to get chow. I always have good memories associated with Big Greek Cafe, so it's still a go-to, but definitely not a frequent visit like I used to make. The food at this location doesn't leave me with the same mouth-watering memories I have from the MD location. However, if you're looking for a better quality fast food experience than those huge national chains, I'd pick Big Greek more of the time.
