Minard's Spaghetti Inn in Clarksburg, West Virginia - if you've never eaten here, you need to fix that ASAP! As the region's oldest and best authentic Italian restaurant, this longstanding favorite is a West Virginia culinary masterpiece that stands head and shoulders above the pack in terms of taste, service, reputation, and longevity!
Way back in 1937, when money was tight thanks to the Great Depression, Rose Minard began cooking up extra batches of her world-famous spaghetti and meatballs to serve to paying guests around her big, round, wooden kitchen table. And that's how Minard's Spaghetti Inn in Clarksburg, West Virginia got its start.
Rose and her husband Michael's venture grew, and soon it was supporting their siblings, too: Samuel and Agnes Minard. As the business grew, the two Minard families expanded their home to accommodate more and more guests.
Eventually, these first-generation founders of Minards Spaghetti Inn passed the business on to their children, who passed it on to their children, and so on. Eighty-five years and counting later, the Minard family still sees Minard's Spaghetti Inn as their home, and you, when you come to eat some of their delicious spaghetti, as their personal guest.
That's one of the secrets to Minard's success - the consistently high standard of service and the committed investment in making sure every plate of Italian food still tastes just as good as Rose Minard's original dishes did.
And the Minards succeed at these two goals. No matter what you order from the menu at Minard's Spaghetti Inn, you'll receive a culinary masterpiece of delicious, authentic color and flavor that will satisfy your palate and turn you into Minard's new biggest fan.
And that's just entrees; wait until you try the desserts!
Minard's Spaghetti Inn is located in a sprawling, Italian-style building at 813 East Pike Street in Clarksburg. Minard's food products, like their sauce, meatballs, and lasagna, are also available in the frozen food section of many local grocery stores. Yum!
