Best Contemporary American Restaurants in West Chester

My Terrain Burger was excellent, as were the Truffle fries. I get it every time! My wife ordered the whole wheat pasta entree, felt the portion was a little small and not quite as hot as it should have been.

Nice surprise. Could stand to have a few more main entrees or change the menus every couple of months. They did a really excellent job with the remodel giving it a little more class and getting away from using just the typical bar menu. The place was packed when I first came in at 7PM but quiet and emptying as I was leaving around 8:45PM. This is not unlike most restaurants ever since life opened up post covid. The employees no matter their job were all friendly and accommodating. The piano music was a nice touch and just the right sound level because it could be heard and enjoyed yet not so loud that you could not have a conversation. Could stand having a few more lower price wine choices. Not unlike most restaurants wine is too high priced. I know that because I buy wine for home use. Something is way off when for a bill your 2 glasses of 5 oz wines cost as much as your meal. It is for this reason that my first choice of a restaurants is usually a BYOB. Had a nice time and I will return.

From start to finish, we felt like we were in expert, caring hands. Even the person who checked our coats had a warm smile. The space is gorgeous (thank you Amanda) and the food was well-conceived and inventive without being show-offy, beautiful and completely delicious. The bay scallops were like a breath of fresh air. Thanks to Chef and the whole staff.

Fantastic! The manager, Suzanna, helped me coordinate the perfect surprise maid/matron of honor proposal for my sisters and it was just a dream come true! The food, drinks, and service are always so spectacular each time. Terrain is my families favorite restaurant on the main line! Thank you again for all of the love and special efforts to making this memory so special for us! I hope to have my bridal shower here!!

I cannot recommend The Love enough…the food was excellent! Everything we ordered was superb! The drinks were delicious and unique. The service from everyone start to finish was top notch. I really liked the feel and look of this establishment, it’s inviting and warm. The music selection was complimentary. The crowd is a nice mix of people. Clean, spacious restrooms too! I LOVED everything! Can’t wait to go back
