- BMBobMvipPhiladelphia / New Jersey Suburbs •29 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoMy wife and I recently enjoyed dinner at the ‘Choice-BYOB’ in Bryn Mawr, Pa. We had seen a movie at the nearby film institute and had noted good reviews in seeking an after show dining experience. We were greeted pleasantly and quickly by our hostess/server upon arriving. The atmosphere is simple and elegant. We were quickly provided menus and warm bread and butter and water. My wife and I decided to have a ‘sharing’ meal. We ordered the seafood soup as an appetizer to share, followed by the shrimp salad. As our entree, we shared the halibut almondine with a side of mashed potatoes. All of our choices were beautifully presented and, to our surprise, separated in their serving so we had individual bowls/plates. Each choice was fresh and flavorful. The soup broth and the sauce for the halibut were both very tasty without overpowering the selection. And the mashed potatoes were perfect. So often, it has been our experience that sides are treated as a part of a meal that are less important. Not so at the Choice. Finally, we rounded our meal with the chocolate meltdown with vanilla ice cream with a cup of coffee. The warm pastry was fresh and bursting with chocolate flavor, an ideal complement to the rich vanilla ice cream. Our server, attentive and pleasant, ensured that our table was cleared between servings and that we had fresh utensils as needed. Her service added greatly to a very impressive dining experience.More infoThe Choice - B.Y.O.BPrice: Expensive• Fusion / Eclectic• Bryn Mawr•4.8
