The Timeless West Virginia Restaurant Everyone Needs To Visit At Least Once

Some places just seem like they've been part of the landscape forever, and they're so good that you can't imagine them ever going away. Jim's Steak & Spaghetti House in Huntington, West Virginia is one of those timeless classics.

Jim's Steak & Spaghetti is a Huntington institution.

Jim Tweel started the restaurant with his fiance Sally Rahall, and it's been a beloved spot in town ever since.

Over the years, Jim's has been visited by plenty of famous faces.

Some famous guests include John F. Kennedy, George W. Bush, Dustin Hoffman, and Muhammad Ali.
