The Best Restaurants in Exton
Everyone drives through Exton. Here's where we actually stop, ranked top to bottom.
Exton reads like a place you pass through until you learn where to turn off. Turn off, though, and there's a brewery with a scratch dinner menu behind its own taps, plus enough Indian kitchens to nearly carry a list of their own. The pizza-and-grill spot at the top has more than thirteen hundred reviewers quietly in agreement. Ours runs in order below; we take dinner disputes seriously out here.
Fontana Pizza & Grill
Pizza and grill on the Pike holding a 4.8 across more than 1,300 reviews, which out here isn't a rating so much as a consensus. The pies are the draw; the full Italian-American grill menu is why it also wins dinner.
Stolen Sun Scratch Kitchen & Taphouse
Its own beer on the taps and a full scratch-cooked dinner menu behind them, all on North Pottstown Pike. A flight and a plate without leaving your seat settles most Friday nights.
Hakata Exton Ramen & Sushi
Hakata-style tonkotsu and sushi on Woodcutter Street. The pork-bone broth is why you're there; the sushi covers whoever came along.
Damas Mediterranean Grill
Shawarma and charcoal kebabs done the Damascus way, with a mezze list that rewards a table ordering wide. Wider than feels sensible is about right.
Deccan Flavors
Named for the Deccan plateau, which is the kitchen's way of telling you it leans Hyderabadi. The biryani is the order; let it make the argument.
The Adyar Cafe
South Indian vegetarian on Lincoln Highway, built around the dosa-and-idli canon. A steady neighborhood kitchen, more weeknight habit than weekend scene.
ChopHouse Grille
Steaks and seafood on North Pottstown Pike, with a bar to start the night at. The menu is built for the dinner you don't rush, which makes it the occasion pick on this stretch of the Pike.
Issho sushi and steakhouse
Nigiri on one side of the menu, cuts off the grill on the other, one kitchen doing both. Ends the sushi-versus-steak standoff before it starts.
Kumamon Ramen
Named for the round-faced bear on the sign, with bowls that come out steaming. The first cold week of fall, this is where we point people.
Appetites On Main
American cooking on Main Street with a menu long enough to end the group-chat debate. It draws regulars, not a scene, which around here is the higher compliment.
