About Lion’s Choice

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 Saint Louis area featuring high-quality, nutritious and tasty sandwiches, sides, and drinks with great service. Customers 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 customers coming back for more.
