Last year was good for the Chester County dining scene, with many new amazing restaurants adding to the already impressive array of dining choices, writes Ed Williams for Main Line Today.

Out of the many newcomers, eight have made their way onto the 20 Best New Restaurants in Philadelphia’s Western Suburbs list.

The top spot went to De La Terre in Downingtown. The restaurant offers exquisite French cuisine with old-school exceptional service.

Sweet Amelia’s in Kennett Square ranked second. It offers some truly unique meals, like the chicken-skin tea sandwich. Vegan options are also available.

The third spot is also reserved for a local eatery: At The Table in Wayne. Alex and Tara Hardy offer delicious, inventive, upscale seafood-focused plates.

Ground Provisions in West Chester also broke the top ten at eighth place. Its vegan seasonal menu spotlights fresh ingredients from local purveyors.

Also making the list are The Record Kitchen + Bar in Coatesville at No. 12, Rivertown Taps in Phoenixville at No. 13, VK Brewing Co. & Eatery in Exton at No. 18, and Steaks West Chester at No. 19.
