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.

Had a nice dinner here today around 4 with my husband and grandson. Food was hot and fresh and we had accidentally threw our retainers into the trash can. I had asked the lady to give me some gloves and instead she came out and went through the trash for us to find them! I believe her name was Destiney I’m unsure fully on the name of the lady that helped us. Super friendly staff and amazing service. Will be back again.

I am a 10 year patron of this location . I have been through employees and manager's as well as the price increases. The loyalty program helps a bit. First 8 years without issue. My boss sends me there at least 2wice a week. So that is good! It is these last two years. I even quit going for several months My salad was old and wilted. Forgot the pepper jack cheese twice. Today was the clincher I Order two sandwiches and 2 fries and a root beer float. It was over $30. It seamed high. So I simply asked at the window if the combo's would have been cheaper he took quite a bit of time and then said yes they are $13 each . I said then can you just charge me that and not give me the drinks? He had to call over a manager who said" I rang it up how she told me". I did not instruct her how to ring it up I just told her what I wanted.
I was charged the same amount cause it was pretty much the same amount I could have gone without the side of rude. Just an FYI.

My son and I frequent this particular line's choice quite often! The service is very fast! We always seem to get the same guy at the drive-thru window, he is very personable and kind always has a smile on his face! The food is always fresh and hot. They never ever tell you that they're shake machine is down like other places do. This place deserves six stars! Hands down probably the best fast food joint in South County across the charts!

Of course you have to love roast beef up appreciate this place although there other choices. I got the large roast beef meal. The roast beef was generous and cooked just the way I like it and the fires were hot and crispy. I had a very good experience. I have loved Lion's Choice ever since it opened in Ballwin in 1969 and was called Red Lion in the beginning. I still stumble sometimes and call it Red Lion.
