14 Best American Restaurants near Hurricane

“Fantastic burger and strawberry shake!“

“It was our first time visiting Bubbarino’s Bites & Bubbles. The parking area was nearly full, but so glad we found a spot and came in for lunch.

My wife and I were quickly greeted and was told we could set anywhere we would like. We were then greeted by our hostess Haley. Extremely nice and welcoming. She said she really enjoys working there and said that the food was great. So she gave us menus and took our drink orders. We had our drinks within the minute.

My wife ordered the Honey Jalapeno Burger. It came with free Fries. I ordered the 12 piece Bone-In Wings. I wanted them with the Sweet Thai Chili sauce. Haley had told us earlier that the wings were part of the daily special for Wednesday. 50% off. What a great deal.

We had told Haley this was our first visit to this establishment. A couple of minutes later, Eddie walked over and introduced himself and was thrilled to have us here today. He told us that what we ordered was some of the restaurant’s best sellers.

I would say within 10 minutes we both had our meals on the table. We have a habit between ourselves to share our meals with each other. So we split the burger and wings and commenced to eat.

The Honey Jalapeno Burger was so juicy and a little messy, but in a great way. It’s been a long time I’ve had a restaurant burger so juicy. Lots of flavor, texture and fresh combination of garden vegetables, ie, lettuce, onion, tomato. Possibly one of the best burgers I’ve eaten in a number of years. Cooked to near perfection. Awesome job to the one on the grill. The fries were well seasoned, crispy and hot. Terrific combo.

Then I tried those wings. Deep crispy exterior and hot, tender inside. Plus, the Sweet Thai Chili was a very good choice for flavor. Again, I’ve eaten many wings over the years, but I’m going to have to put them in the near top of best ever. Again, your chef/cook/grilling champ needs to be brought out and given a standing ovation every now and then.

Putnam County and Hurricane WV has got one of the best businesses in the area. I told Eddie before we left, that they now have two new customers.

If anyone reads my comments, please make every effort to stop by and spend some time at Bubbarino’s. You will not regret it.

Great hangout, eating spot and a social gathering place to enjoy.

Thanks for the experience today. You guys and gals rock. Continue your pace forward. Great job!

18 Dec 2025 for a second return and was not disappointed at all. Such a great little hangout. By the way, additional parking has been added and easy to get in and out.“

“First time dining there tonight. Party of 3. Two had burgers which they said were really good. I had the bone in wings with Buffalo sauce. I have to say, these were the best wings I’ve had in years! 🤌 We will be returning!“

“The food is terrific! I give everything I have eaten a 5/5. My favorite is the chicken salad (scratch) sandwich with chips (scratch) with a side of saracha mayonnaise (scratch) to dip my chips in. Dishes are always fresh and everything is made from scratch.“

“Fantastic service, fantastic food. Every single second of the experience was incredible. I had no idea I lived so close to a hidden jewel that I would’ve traveled out of state for! It was nostalgic to taste what matched my mawmaw’s home made biscuit and gravy for brunch today, haven’t had the pleasure of that taste in over 20 years. I can’t say enough good things about this restaurant, even the mimosa tasted fresh! The staff were so friendly, and we were treated like family even with every seat taken. The cheese cake was incredible! White chocolate raspberry. I don’t even like cheesecake. Thanks for being awesome, I can’t wait to come back and try the entire menu!“

“The owner Osh makes some of the best food in Hurricane! Pair his entrees with their new craft cocktails and you won’t be disappointed.“

“Walked in not having high expectations. My last visit to the Captain was when restaurants in Dunbar was open. Employees were very polite and nice. Service was great and my dinner was wonderful. I honestly didn't know Captain Ds could be this Amazing!!! Will definitely be back soon!“

“My fiancée and his Dad love having Breakfast here. We always expect our favorite waitress Heather. She is very good at what she does. She knows what we want when we sit down. Very sweet and nice lady. She makes our breakfast experience. Wonderful not to mention the food is great.“

“Walked in this restaurant just a couple of minutes of opening. Little crowd, but service was at the premium.

Lauren took our order with a smiling face and such a wonderful attitude. She was extremely helpful with ordering. She praised the taste of the different dishes that Applebee’s has on the menu.

We received our drinks and appetizer. Drinks looked good and cold. The appetizer was served on an oversized plate and we couldn’t wait to dive in.

Our meals came out at the perfect time. Hot, steaming, and sizzling for me, and a large, precision placed salad for my sweetie.

Overall tastes on both meals were excellent!

Thank you Applebee’s and Lauren for an overall excellent dining experience. Plus, we can’t forget about the ones who prepared each plate. Outstanding job and service!!

Located at 60 Liberty Square Drive, Hurricane, WV.“
