It’s rare to find an establishment of any kind that has been in business in the same location and owned by the same family for over 75 years. However, Jim’s Steak and Spaghetti House in Huntington, West Virginia is just such a place, and it’s become especially famous for a single menu item that you might not expect.
Located at 920 5th Avenue since Jim Tweel first opened for business in 1938, this restaurant has truly become a Huntington institution.
Actually, it's strawberry pie. Every year in spring, hundreds of people flock to Jim's during Strawberry Pie Week, a five-day-long community tradition featuring the restaurant's famed homemade dessert.
Just because the strawberry pie is Jim's most famous menu item, it doesn't mean there's anything wrong with their signature dish - spaghetti. It's also pretty famous! Jim's is known far and wide for its hearty Italian staple with its award-winning homemade sauce.
The spectacular haddock fish sandwich is a major draw. Then again, the homemade chocolate and coconut cream pies are also to die for.
Jim's Steak and Spaghetti House is one of those rare places that not only customers love, but employees are proud to work for. This place is a piece of history, as you can quickly see from the decor: patronized by politicians and celebrities, you can even sit in the same booth where JFK did during his 1960 campaign.
