Went to this cozy spot for dinner with my husband tonight and we left so impressed. Everything was on point from start to finish. The staff was super attentive, the octopus and lobster ceviche were amazing, and the lamb chops were perfect. But the star of the night was the sea bass — honestly one of the best I’ve ever had. We’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend for a nice night out or even a regular dinner.

Great little BYOB in Bryn Mawr. Anyone who enjoyed Cerise a decade ago will immediately feel comfortable here.
“European” is a broad category, but avoids the pigeonholing that restrains creativity, blending ingredients and preparations.
Each dish we had offered unique and surprising flavors and textures. Both the duck and striped bass were flawlessly done, firm, tender and not dry in the least.
Portions were unusually generous for this style of dining, and combined with the richness of the sauces, you’ll be hard-pressed to find room for dessert.
The honey-caramel-coffee-orange sauce on my duck sounded as though it could be cloyingly sweet, but it wasn’t. The half duck was boned so expertly that not a morsel remained.
Prices were more than reasonable considering the quality and portion size.

There is a reason this place is always packed!!! We were visiting family and they took us to this gem. Absolutely loved my dinner: Chilean sea bass. Presentation, taste, balance, I would have licked the plate clean if I had bad manners . The server helped with all of our choices for dinner and appies, and they didn’t steer us wrong. The tuna on fried rice appetizer was my fav but all were yummy. Highly recommend!! And extra win, it’s BYOB so you can bring your fav wines! Advice:
Go hungry!

Dining at this restaurant was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The food was absolutely outstanding , every dish was prepared with care, beautifully presented, and bursting with flavor. The atmosphere was warm, inviting, and created the perfect setting for an enjoyable meal.
Equally impressive was the staff. Everyone we encountered was professional, attentive, and genuinely welcoming, which elevated the entire experience. It is rare to find a place where the cuisine, the ambiance, and the service are all equally excellent, but this restaurant has achieved exactly that.

If you’re searching for a culinary experience that combines excellent food, impeccable service, and a charming ambiance, look no further than The Choice Restaurant. Our recent visit was nothing short of spectacular, leaving us eager to plan our next outing there.
The prix fixe menu offered a delightful journey through flavors, with every dish thoughtfully crafted and beautifully presented. Among the highlights were the scallops, black cod, and wagyu beef, each a testament to the chef’s artistry and skill. The scallops were perfectly executed, exuding a delicate sweetness, while the black cod melted in the mouth, its richness balanced by subtle seasoning. The wagyu beef was a showstopper, tender and indulgent, leaving us savoring every bite.
As frequent diners at other BYOB establishments, we were pleasantly reminded of Gilmore’s, a beloved spot in West Chester, PA, that closed years ago. The restaurant embodies a similar sense of sophistication and attention to detail that makes the dining experience truly memorable.
Suffice to say, this was not our last visit. With standout dishes and an experience that rivals the best BYOBs we’ve enjoyed, we will definitely return to savor more of what The Choice Restaurant has to offer.

Everything from beginning to end was perfection. Hard to find anything to bicker about. We had the crab and artichoke, steak tartare, sea bass, lamb and creme brulee. All the dishes were delightful. I would describe it as Mediterranean/ Asian fusion. We are more old school, and would like to see tablecloths, but that definitely is not a deal breaker. The service and food will have us as repeat customers.

We enjoyed our first meal at this BYOB last night & we will definitely return with friends. The simple elegance vibe gives the restaurant cozy and inviting feeling. The food of course is why we will come back, I’m gf and enjoyed the branzino with mushrooms. The burrata salad with fresh figs and just a light dressing was also one of my favorites. The staff is warm and friendly without constantly being at your table. My husband said the warm bread with soft butter at the start of the meal is amazing, they brought me homemade chips since I couldn’t indulge in the bread. Yum!
