Killer roast beef sandwiches since 1967. The recipe for our famous roast beef sandwich is simple: 100% real top round beef. Slow roasted on-site for three hours. Shaved extra thin. Served medium rare on a lightly toasted buttered bun. And topped with a dash of secret seasoning. It’s the same way we’ve done it for over 50 years. Voted Best Fries by St. Louis Magazine.

    Lion's choice has rarely failed to meet my expectations when it comes to roast beef sandwiches. It's a little more spindy than other drive-thru fast food type options. However, I find it to be worth the money. Maybe I'm just a big fan and disappointed that they left the Kansas City area again. Lion's choice is a place that I will go every time I'm in the St. Louis area. They have plenty of options besides the roast beef but that is what they do best. For anyone who's never had it. Please be advised that I hope you like your roast beef medium rare just the way it should be.

    The staff were thoughtful and kind! We loved the roast beef, it was flavorful and moist,and appreciated the flavorful AuJus. The availability of fresh veggies made it a 10/10!!!

    My husband and I both ordered roast beef sandwiches tonight, and both had a mushy, ground texture—reminiscent of wet bread. The meat showed no indication of being sliced, but rather seemed mechanically separated or ground. Neither of us could stomach our sandwiches, and by the time we realized it, it was too late to go back—and we likely wouldn’t have wanted a replacement meal from this location anyway. We tried to provide feedback on the website, but there were no options we could find to do so.
