24 Best American Restaurants in Parkersburg

“My wife and I have eaten at the Dog Haus for years. The owner and employees treat us like family. The food, including desserts, is homemade and very delicious. Ribs are excellent. It’s your fault if you leave hungry, cause portions are generous. Overall a great place to have lunch or dinner.“

“Love the hot roast beef sandwich. The waitresses are great.“

“Fabulous dinner rolls! Great atmosphere.“

“Ordered for the first time and it was fantastic!! Amazing taste, generous portions, and friendly employees! This is now the only Italian restaurant I will go to!“

“I am not a typical bar person. I was looking for the best restaurants in Parkersburg and this place was towards the top of the list. I looked over the menu and was surprised at how many different options they had. I had the thick cut bologna sandwich. Wow, when they say thick cut, they mean thick cut. It was atleast a quarter of an inch thick. The downside was that it was just the sandwich. There were no sides. I this was a shame because the sandwich itself was over $7. But, I could not complain too much because it was very good. The sides are extra, but they come in huge portions to share with the whole table. I was in a group of 6 adults. The wedges were more than enough for everyone. Our waitress was great and was helpful with the menu. Some of the menu was a little hard to navigate, but she was great in explaining everything.“

“The man working was sweet and kind as well as considerate ! Played music and made sure I liked the type he was playing !The machines were clean ,but ,the machine wasnt good too me .I wish they (the machines) would take lessons from the worker!Lol cleanest place ive been in a while .....Variety of snacks and great drinks and great mixture of old and new machines !“

“On our way to North Carolina from Ohio and we stopped by for dinner and was pleasantly surprised. The staff was amazing. The building is beautiful and the food really was a great finishing touch. Had quesadillas and pepperoni rolls with probably the best Caesar salad I’ve ever had. Definitely a must stop.“

“We are very fortunate in Parkersburg to have THREE five-star restaurants. We had guests from Columbus and went to Southern Craft tonight. We had no wait (WVU game televised), prompt service and superb food—ribeye, short ribs, burgers, salads. Yum all the way around. It’s now been two years since it opened and we hope it’s here to stay.“

“I don't usually order french fries from restaurants because they're mostly disappointing. My husband ordered the fries for me today & I wish I'd tried them sooner. The Root Beer Shack has delicious french fries!!! I should have known they'd be good since everything else I've ever ordered from there is so, so good.“

“Fantastic place! Very good Wings! I tinkered with the West Virginia's Wildest Wings, which were tolerable and while definitely hot, any true Chilehead should be able to handle. The bartenders, owner, and staff were great! Had a great time talking to other local customers at the bar as well. Too bad it's not in my backyard as I'd be a regular, but it's absolutely on the gotta-stop-in list anytime I'm in that area.“

“Went for the first time for girls night and it was honestly the best food and drinks I have ever had in my entire life!!! Will definitely be going back. Highly recommend the drink mountain mama and the chicken bowtie pasta.“

“Always excellent. Country feel and taste.“

“We go to Cheryl’s as often as we can. We always get great food and the service is unbeatable. When they are really busy or have a new cook, you will have a little bit of a wait. The staff always are kind to us and anyone that comes there. Today, we had Baked steak and it was so tender and delicious. Nothing but good to say. Everyone should try their Baked steak.“

“horrible my pancakes was cold stuck to the plate server was rude“

“Couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. From the food to the service everything was unexpectedly absolutely perfect. Would highly recommended to anyone, and everyone.“

“Great place to take the old lady before I lay the pipe.“

“The BEST Philly and Italian subs in town! Specials everyday, HUGE selection of alcohol, best Bartenders, they make you feel like your right at home! Prices are amazing & with 12 tvs and all of them can be running different games, you won't miss a thing! Plus they also gambling machines. The LR has been open 50 years, obviously they are doing something right! Check it out for sure!!“

“Ordered today for a work meeting and they didn’t disappoint! Great value and amazing quality! Excellent customer service! Thank you!!! (It was great seeing you!)“

“Great food and cold drinks“

“food was very delicious I highly recommend eating there. I would say it's a five star restaurant.“

“Very good waitress.!!!! Friendly staff.“

“We ate here last night and idk who the cook was but 5 star! Everything was delicious and flavorful. My steak was cooked medium perfection, and the coconut shrimp was delicious!“

“Very good experience at this location was greeted with a friendly smile. My order was taken promptly. Food came out nice and hot and was exactly what I had ordered. The condiment area was nice and clean and well stocked.It’s been a while since I’ve gone to a Captain D’s but this experience was superb!! Will definitely be back!!!“

“My husband and I eat here about once a week. Unfortunately it is starting to show it's wear and tear; rips in carpet, tears in some bench seats, toilet in restroom has been out of order for about a year, walls need painted. Would like to see things "spruced up" a bit.“
