From its humble beginning in 1967 with its first store in Ballwin, Missouri, privately‑held Lion’s Choice is a quick‑serve restaurant in the St. Louis area featuring high‑quality, nutritious, and tasty sandwiches, sides, and drinks with great service.

Guests love the real, roasted beef sandwich, made with lean top‑round beef, slow‑roasted in the store, prepared to order, shaved thin, and served hot with a dash of secret seasoning on a buttered and toasted bun. The result is a mouth‑watering, tender sandwich that is always hot, healthy, tasty, and keeps loyal guests coming back for more.
