After borrowing 15 hundred dollars, Jim Tweel bought a small building on 5th avenue in Huntington in 1938. 69 years later, Jims Steak and Spaghetti House has become Huntington's signature restaurant, a local landmark that has stood the test of time. Surviving and thriving in the face of chain eateries, Jims continues to provide superior food, excellent service, and the most genuinely friendly staff you'll ever find.

Although Jim passed away 2 years ago, his daughter Jimmie Carder and several longtime employees continue the tradition of Huntington's most famous restaurant. Don't miss this Cabell County treasure!
