    Regular roast beef meal
    Sara L.

    It's fast food and I had a great quick experience here. They were having a customer appreciation day and had sent a coupon so I went specifically for that. Hubby ended up getting a combo in addition. The roast beef was hot and delicious, the tangy bbq is the BEST, the fries were crispy and delicious. I treated myself to a mini dipped cone and it was an amazing end to my quick meal. Tables were all clean, service was quick and they were prepared with a laminated coupon they were able to scan for the promo. That helped keeping the line moving quickly! I'd stop again for a roast beef meal :)

    I think I'm at an all around basic for this restaurant. It reminded me of Arbys water down to basics. Flying in late and was hungry, so stopped by what seemed to catch my attention at the Ian's was close to the hotel. I received my meal in more than a reasonable drive thru time., once I was ready to eat, I noticed I was not given any napkins in my bag. The outside premises was kept clean and the service was okay, no one was rude. If I had another long day and really didn't want to stop anywhere else to eat I would give another try and probably choose another menu option..

    A good size dining room helps when this location gets busy at peak times.

    Near a popular shopping area this LC is busy at peak dining times. However, there's plenty of seating and the large parking lot can handle crowds. This St. Louis chain focuses on roast beef and does it so well it doesn't need a huge menu. There are a only handful of non-roast beef sandwich and salad options available.

    Since I didn't grow up in St. Louis I had no idea what Lion's Choice was when I moved into the area. I was familiar with Arby's though and it became clear pretty immediately that Lion's Choice is in that vein. I've only gone to Lion's Choice a couple times and I will admit that it is almost never for the roast beef. Instead our family goes for the mini cones. Man, what a treat. For 0.50 to 0.75 you can get a mini cone plain or dipped in chocolate. It is a perfect when you need a treat. My son loves it. So I can say the food is fine, exactly what you would expect, but the mini-cones are just top notch.

    I really love the Roast Beef at Lion's Choice. The flavor isn't just the meat but the seasoning they use on it as well as adding the Horsey sauce and BBQ sauce. Makes my mouth water just thinking about it. The employees are super friendly and they love hearing that we have driven all the way from Central Florida just to eat there. The restaurant is clean and the food is fast and fresh. The parking lot is a bit awkwardly shaped but that is so minor once you bite into that sandwich. Happy Dining!

    I love Lion'sChoice! The roast beef is thinly sliced and not over cooked and they don't skimp on the meat. The horseradish sauce actually has heat and flavor. I rarely eat fast food but Lion's Choice consistently delivers quality food for a reasonable price. I hope the expansion doesn't ruin it.

It turns out we've been driving past a Kirkwood treasure all this time. This is "upscale-casual" at its finest--professional and refined, but with a neighborhood heart. Service & Logistics The service here is exceptionally polished. From the friendly hosts to our knowledgeable server, everything ran like clockwork. We even had a visit from a gentleman I presume was the owner (likely Bob, who has been at the helm for decades). He didn't just "check-in"--he saw we needed a few items and personally took care of it. Pro Tips: * Reservations: Don't look for them on OpenTable. They use their own dedicated form on their website, which is simple and efficient. * Wednesday Wine: If you can, visit on a Wednesday. They offer half-priced wine bottles with your meal--a fantastic value for their extensive collection. Cocktails & Drinks The bar program here is excellent, and the bartender was friendly and engaging. * White Negroni (4.5/5): Though they may not have had Suze (the drink wasn't perfectly clear), the bartender absolutely nailed the flavor profile and balance. * Barrel-Finished Manhattan (4.5/5): Their use of an in-house barrel finish makes this classically executed cocktail a real standout--highly recommended for whiskey lovers. * Wine: They have an awesome selection. Definitely ask your server for recommendations! The Food: American Fare with a Global Twist * House Salad (4.5/5): You have to try their house dressing--it's a creamy garlic style that reminds me of the classic Mayfair Hotel dressing. It's incredibly tasty and a true St. Louis staple. * Blackened Grouper (4.5/5): As someone who loves Florida grouper, this hit the mark. Lightly blackened with a fresh mango salsa; vibrant and perfectly executed. * Rainbow Trout (4.25/5): The orange tarragon cream sauce is the star. It was perfectly balanced--enough to enhance the fish and rice without being "soupy." * Pilot House Chicken (4.5/5): A delicious, well-seasoned chicken breast. Savory, juicy, and very well-prepared. * Extras (5/5): They start you with lavash crackers and butter, and the hot, fresh rolls are dangerous. They even finish the night with powdered sugar cookies--a classic Sunset 44 touch. Dessert * S'more Cheesecake & Chocolate Martini (4.5/5): We opted for this beautifully executed, unique dessert. It was yummy on its own, but ordering a Chocolate Martini to accompany it was the perfect move. The Vibe: It definitely skews toward a more mature, quiet crowd. It's the perfect place if you actually want to hear the people you're dining with.

It took a while for the waitress to acknowledge us. I ordered a coffee and the chicken and waffles. Chicken and waffles were okay but needed more syrup or hot honey with them. I would have asked for more but the waitress never came back to check on us after the food came. Coffee was okay, but I wasn't offered a refill until we were done with our meal and getting our checks. $3.50 for 1 cup of black coffee is a bit much. When we got our check, we had to wait a while for the waitress to come back to split it for us, I always find it strange when they don't ask. Overall not a great or awful experience but I have def had better.
