This faat food place has casual dining. It nice how it is decorated with some of their food items and it says something about the food. The food was good. The Remix sand is Texas toast, roast beef, garlic aoli and Swiss cheese. The combination of garlic aoli and the seasoning paired very well. The fries were good. I needed a little salt. Customer service was decent. The took our orders. They were friendly and accommodating. They made the experience pleasant. read more

Lion's Choice is solid roast beef. Better than Arby's for sure. While it's likely not my FAVORITE fast food restaurant, it makes top 10 easily. This location is fine -- it's clean and the staff are polite. Which is the case for most of the LC in the area. read more

The most delicious roast beef sandwich you'll ever eat in your life. It's a St. Louis tradition. They cook the meat to your desired doneness. There are quite a few choices for different types of sandwiches, including turkey and chicken, and the fries are cooked a special way where they are brined in salt. I highly recommend if you get a roast beef you get the barbecue sauce and horseradish sauce for it. And the frozen custard is epic. The kids meal has a lot of really good choices and they give you a cookie. We walked up to the counter and were served right away. It's a nice atmosphere inside with good lighting, lots of pictures on the walls, it has kind of a retro feel to it. read more

Lion's Choice is easily my favorite fast food restaurant. Everything is super fresh and made to order. They prepare the roast beef to the perfect temperature, but they'll also serve it your way if you want it overcooked. I highly recommend, adding cheese. It just makes the sandwich more flavorful. If you like their seasoning salt, you can have them add a few extra shakes from the shaker. When someone ask, "Who has the best fast food, french fries?" I will always answer, Lion's Choice. Their fries are thin, crispy and have skins on them. They're lightly salted, so for me, they are the perfect french fries. I like the condiment bar, where you can add different sauces and a variety of other toppings. For me, a lover of jalapeños, I always add a few to my sandwich. I also, appreciate the small paper cups that you can fill with ketchup to did those tasty crispy fries in. Service is always fast and friendly, making it easy to get in and out if you're on a time schedule. read more

After a horrible experience two years ago while in St. Louis, my husband said we had to try again bc I didn't really experience Lion's Choice properly. Ok, fine. So, we were already over on this side of town running errands before heading to the airport so we drove through the drive-through of this one which my husband said he's eaten at 1000x at least and it's one of the best. He had the original sandwich and we got a kid's meal for our daughter to try - it was $6.99 and came with a choice of fries/veggies and cookie/shake with a drink and a small slider-sized roast beef sandwich. This one was MUCH better. The sandwiches were delish and the portion/quality of the meat was less fatty and much better. All in all - this did change my opinion of the place. Nice, quality fast food here with delicious desserts and fair prices. read more

Asked for rare roast beef and they got it perfect. The register guy was cheerful and outgoing and I felt welcome. The only negative was that the fries were warm, but a little on the soggy side. read more

I visited location, thru the drive thru, on 2/7/26. It was almost 10:30pm and I was happy that they were open. When I got to the window I could see that the counter person appeared to be working alone. When I asked her about that she verified (with a smile!) that she was working alone. She did not complain and was actually very pleasant. She did a fantastic job getting food out to the cars in a timely manner and my food was hot and the order was correct. Great job Tink! read more

I was hungry while in town- I heard they were famous for roast beef sandwiches, so I went and had one. It was quite good, so, yaaaay!

I visited this restaurant on a recent business trip and I wish they had one in my town. The staff was friendly. The roast beef sandwich was so good with good sized amount of meat on it. The fries were delicious and I found the prices to be of good value. I will definitely return on my next visit to this area. read more

This is a reliable Lions Choice. Not all of them are. But the beef is consistently good here!

I absolutely love Lions choice! I got the large roast beef meal. Side of cheese for fries. I love all the toppings at condiments counter. I can add pickles, onions all different sauces, bbq sauce, and some others but I forgot. The best fountain soda!!!! I luv the diet Dr Pepper. Roast beef is so tender and flavorful and the staff were very friendly & helpful !! read more

I love roast beef and before I made my way to the airport I decided to give it a try. The combo came with tasty thin cut fries. Jus the way I love them. The roast beef sandwich was good. I wish they had the option to add Swiss cheese and maybe even Brie. The roast beef is pretty good, only thing is missing is a more crispy sandwich instead of the soft one. Lions Choice was a good choice though before going home. read more

In Wentzville from out of town. Thought we'd try something new, with a delivery to our hotel. Never tried Lion's choice. Regrets are many. The food did show up on time! 2 baked potatoes were made exactly the same, though they were not ordered that way. 1 was cold and not quite cooked. I had not ordered cheese or bacon on mine so the congealed cheese sauce and hunk of stuck together "bacon" bits was rather unappetizing. I didn't realize it would be difficult to get a baked potato with butter, sour cream, and chives, but apparently it is! Not to mention we asked for and were charged for extra sour cream but did not get that. 2 Italian Beef sandwiches with mild giardiniera peppers. 1 w/ pepper jack cheese 1 w/ "provel" cheese. What exactly is "provel" cheese, anyway? This sandwich was honestly the single most salty sandwich I have ever had! And I love salt. But there was so much salt it ruined the sandwich. My husbands was the same. Hopefully, we don't end up sick from this garbage. I don't know what the other reviewers ate there that gave 4 + stars but trust me it wasn't this sandwich! The only good thing about this meal was the mac & cheese and that was just good. All told (including tip and delivery fee) that was $45 we should have spent at Domino's, at least there you have a pretty good idea what you are getting won't be great but will at least be edible. Do not recommend wasting your time or money on this place. read more

First time trying the Lion. Quick, hot, and tasty. Overall a good option for my late afternoon lunch. Staff was underwhelming on attitude, but totally fine. Tangy/sweet bbq was very good. Fast food, but a tad bit upscale and unique. read more

Today my order was ready before I'd even finished getting my drink and picking out a table. Craving for roast beef and fries swiftly satisfied. The place is kept clean and tidy. Standard Lion's Choice decor. read more

Fast service, staff is super helpful and they were giving out ice cream to everyone. Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas!

What can I say that hasn't already been said; lions choice straws bum me out, I would've been better off with a blade of grass. I went to Andy's across the street just to get a decent straw. I like the lids though? read more

I can see why they are giving fries away free with a sandwich order, the new fries are awful, so no one must be buying them so they are trying to get rid of them. read more

I never thought I would see the day where I would give a fast food restaurant four stars but Lion's Choice has earned them. After running errands, we decided to stop there for a fast lunch. Their roast beef sandwiches are much better than another place that serves roast beef sandwiches. Their meat is tastier and looks better. He ordered the large roast beef and I decided to try something new - the turkey sandwich. We both got fries as a side and as I have said before, fries are fries. His sandwich looked wonderful. My sandwich was loaded with roasted turkey and I think I will always be getting that from now on. Would I come back here? Yes, I will. See you later alligator. read more

Probably the worst food I have put in my mouth in a long time. The roast beef was dry and tasted like it was days old. The French fries were disgusting - bottom of the barrel - rock hard and tasted like they were found in the back of someone's Toyota and thrown back into the grease. Gross! Gross! Gross! No indoor dining after 8?? No ice tea! The "King" sandwich looked like a toddler frog prince (see pic). It was definitely not a king. The employees acted like it was a chore to even speak to me. No custard cookie things either. This was my first time to try this place. It's super close and convenient, but I will never go back there. Never. They should change the name of this place to Nobody's Choice. read more

I'm not a fast-food eater but this was crazy good. I got a roast beef and cheddar and ordered a side of brown gravy (not au jus) for dipping. Can't wait to have another one! Dreaming about it. Add a little horseradish sauce for spunk. Sweet tea was really good too. read more

My lunch order was delivered quickly and correctly. The assistant manager who handled the transaction was efficient and thorough. COVID-19 precautions in place for the open dining room included plexiglass shields at register, masked and gloved employees, socially distanced tables, one-use cups at soda dispenser, and hand soap. Wish there'd been available wi-fi as at other locations. read more

Wow, Wow, wow!! Amazing roast beef, amazing fresh hot crispy fries. Broccoli and cheddar soup is great, creamy and tasty. Everything was hot and delicious. Used drive through read more

Have past by Lion's Choice locations over the years on my way to visit family and never gave it a thought. Figured it was just like Arby's. Was very pleasantly surprised. Really enjoyed the shaved roast beef and the choice of condiments. Fries were crisp and delicious. The employees were on top of their game. I never review fast food chains but felt like it deserved a mention. read more

This place isn't only bad, it's dangerous. I ordered a regular roast beef and the sandwich I got was cold with red meat. I had pulled away from the window and went back to tell them it was bad. They asked if I wanted it well done and I said yes. The new sandwich had brown meat on the outside but when I opened the bun it was still cold and red in the middle, with something red on the bun today looked like blood. I ended up throwing it away uneaten. The "chocolate" shake was a vanilla shake with a little chocolate syrup on top. Hopefully it was safe to consume but it wasn't good. I will never go back and I would not recommend it to my worst enemy. read more

We had not eaten here before and it was good. Real roast beef with lots of sauce options.

I came in today at 1:30 and it was busy in the drive thru. They were able to get me my food quickly and I was on my way home. I got home and took a bite of my sandwich and it was bright red. I opened it and my roast beef was extremely rare with a blood soaked bun and blood on the wrapper. I know Lion's Choice makes their stuff fresh and slices their meat so I can't believe someone sliced something that rare and served it to me thinking that was ok. Hopefully not many other people in that line ordered the roast beef. I had to throw my sandwich away and couldn't come back to replace it as I was at home with my baby during her nap so I just had to skip lunch. So disappointing. Hopefully they do some better quality checking before sending sandwiches out the window in the future. read more

I really like there Italian beef but there ahjus can be on the salty side and fries also have too much salt. Depends on the location but take a tip fry me. No salt after cooking please read more

A wonderful St Louis treasure, this is an establishment that vends choice meats selected by the lion. They also have first rate soft drinks. The meats themselves are powerful and timely, while the indoor dining experience, employee charm and overall brand aesthetic are top notch. read more

Great folks working here who try everything in their power to please their customers. Thanks, TyRhonda.

Love the roast beef sandwich! It's fast food but delicious! The roast beef is lean and moist. Add cheese, a little bbq sauce and horseradish...perfection! read more

It is one thing to raise your prices but when you shrink the size of the item and don't tell people they are paying more for less food it is really pathetic. When I unwrapped my Regular Roast Beef, I was shocked at how small it was. It has probably been around 3 months since I had one. Shame on you. I also ordered a large fry and the container was only half full with fries that were old and cold. You basically stole my money. read more

So this place is a St. Louis 'must visit' for us usually. I have such fond memories of eating here with my dad (RIP) & of orange freeze outings on hot summer days. This visit was so disappointing. The service was fine. The roast beef was flavorless (as in what happened to the seasoning it used to be loaded with?!). When the main reason to stop here is the delish roast beef and au jus.... & the roast beef isn't well cooked and lacks seasoning... it's a bust. I couldn't even finish with a dip cone it was just such a sad experience. read more

Just a quick little add on, went through the drive thru this week and had the roast Turkey for the first time, just a note, it has none of the spice on it, and no condiments! I needs something? I'm not sure what ? Mayo? A little mustard? Just an FYI ! read more

4 words -- SWEET POTATO WAFFLE FRIES. I was tipped off on these by a friend of mine. Apparently the fries are seasonal. I don't even recall seeing them on the drive-through menu, but when I asked they had em. I got a regular order of the fries w/ a regular Famous Roast Beef sandwich for a bit over $5. When I'd asked for the fries, I was caught off-guard by an awesome question -- maple seasoning or marshmallow dip? That's right, you can slather your sweet potato waffle fries in MARSHMALLOW DIP. I decided that was too decadent to go at alone, so I went for the seasoning, which was like a cinnamon maple dust. It comes separately, it is up to you to put it on. All in all the fries were pretty damn good, and the maple seasoning kicked em up a notch. The roast beef sandwiches here are like crack. Something in that seasoning has me wolfing it down at twice the normal speed. It's probably some MSG-laced concoction. The sandwich is simple -- just bread and meat and seasoning. I don't use any sauce. It goes down nicely. The regular french fries here are also pretty decent. You know I'll be back for that marshmallow dip one of these days... read more

Francesca was amazing at the drive through today. She was kind and helped me so much. Wonderful job!!!!

I've been to this location a lot recently to use the Lion's Choice gift cards I was given from a family member. This location seems to be a bit more consistent than the Chippewa location with how the roast beef is cooked. I opt for the Large Roast Beef Sandwich since I like the longer steak bun the beef is on. The sandwiches are well-seasoned, which is always a plus, though sometimes the bun is quite soggy. Earlier in the day you'll get faster service in the drive-thru compared to the evening hours. The service here is usually friendly, which is always a plus. Part of the lower rating for the review is for the recent changes to the frozen custard. I've been a fan of Lion's Choice custard since childhood, but lately it tastes really off-putting. I'm not sure if as a chain Lion's Choice switched over to different ingredients, but their custard now has a different taste, texture, and it doesn't melt as quickly (which is usually a sign that Carrageenan has been added). The custard just tastes really fake now and leaves a weird after taste in your mouth. It isn't worth ordering anymore, which is such a shame. I hope they bring the old recipe back. read more

In general this is a pretty good roast beef fast food place. But I have to comment on the fish sandwich offered during Lent. This fish sandwich is a dull, tasteless square that is below even the worst frozen square you can get in a bag from the grocery store. Do not purchase this fish sandwich. It's overpriced and underperforms in all categories. read more
