Doc Magrogan’s Oyster House

Rating: 7

Cost: $10 – $40 per person
Review: This place is a vintage 1920′s oyster house and has quite a nice atmosphere. The prices are between $10 for sandwiches to $40 Surf & Turf.  Most of the sea food entrées are $25 or less. They have a good selection of seafood on their menu and a very enthusiastic waiter to help you out if you have questions. We tried the Thai Chili Glazed Tuna (rare) and Doc’s Grilled Combo (shrimp, scallops & salmon). Both dishes were excellent.  They are known for their oysters but I haven’t tried them yet.  Overall this is a great place to dine.

Z.Wei Asian Cuisine & Sushi Bar

Rating: 7

Cost: $10 – $15 per person
Review: This is an above average Chinese restaurant with added Japanese and Thai cuisine that I keep coming back to. Food is generally very good. I would recommend “Beef red curry” and “Shrimp Pad Thai“. It seems to be a great sushi place from all the other reviews. I will update this review after I test their sushi myself. Sushi is a la carte only and the prices range from $8 to $14 per roll. It is a BYOB place. You should definitely try this place.

Iron Hill Brewery & Restaurant

Rating: 7

Cost: $10 – $20 per person
Review: The food is slightly above average. The place can get crowded. It is a nice place to go if you want to try out different types of beer. I would recommend trying their beer sampler which is small amount of every beer they are currently serving. This is a good way to find out which type of beer you like so you don’t end up with a huge glass which you don’t enjoy.

Hibachi of Downingtown

Rating: 7

Cost: $10 – $25 per person
Review: The place is quite large and it has nice atmosphere. I haven’t been there for anything other than sushi so I can not comment on their hibachi. Sushi is about average.  They have a sushi bar where you can order all you can eat or a la carte. Sushi prices range from $8 from a single roll to $25 for all you can eat. They have a full bar and serve alcohol as well if you are in the mood for a drink. This place is not a BYOB restaurant. It is a good alternative for all you can eat sushi but if you can drive a little longer I would recommend trying Hibachi Japanase Steak House.

Review: It is certainly one of the best byob restaurants in Newtown Square where you can order delicious Indian or Thai dishes. I recommend Shrimp Pad-Thai or Beef Red Curry. The atmosphere is cozy and relaxing.

Hibachi Japanese Steak House

Rating: 8

Cost: $15 – $25 per person

Review: I can definitely say that this is my favorite sushi place. They have excellent all you can eat sushi bar or a la carte. Sushi prices range from $8 from a single roll to $25 for all you can eat. Hibachi rooms are always seem to be full providing good time and great meal for everyone. They also serve full range of alcoholic beverages. I recommend trying the Japanese beer.
