Great menu!
Dustin E.

Elle & Jack's is sublime! Our server, Alicia was perfect in every way. Ask for her if she's working. The ambiance here is impeccable. The decoration and atmosphere is fresh and on point. I had the cucumber mock-tail and it was delightful! The Apple & Burrata salad with candied walnuts was incredible. My wife had one of the specials which was Shrimp and Mussels Diablo pasta. Alicia said it was pretty spicy but could be toned down. My wife preferred that option and adored the gorgeous tasty dish. I had the Jamaican shrimp curry since the chef is from Jamaica. Simply one of the best dishes I've ever had. Perfection. How he doesn't have a James Beard award or Michelin star is beyond me. They had a special chocolate espresso cake for dessert which was outstanding. Alicia and Elle & Jack's served us one of the best meals we've had in years. We just moved to KC after living in Las Vegas for a dozen years. We know good food. Wheeling is so lucky to have this gem. 5 stars feels like too few. Top shelf all the way. Just go. And ask for Alicia. Everything was perfectly timed by her and she's super enthusiastic, energetic and engaging. She's also from my home state. Grew up 40 miles from me. Small world.

I had been wanting to try this place as the photos I'd seen always made the food look delicious. The actually food was better!! I made reservations for my birthday dinner. I got the scallops and my guest got the filet. We both got old fashioned (mine was the wintertime, which was soo good and not as sweet as I was concerned about). The service was great from entrance to leaving. Our server, Alicia, was attentive but not pushy or annoying. She had a great attitude and was all smiles. It was a Tuesday so it was a little slower but still abuzz but easy for conversation. The actual temperature was a bit chilly but the atmosphere was warm. Highly recommend and would love to return!

I was expecting great things after reading all the reviews but unfortunately, our meal was pretty lackluster. We really wanted to try the arancine appetizer, but were told they were out. Then for dessert we wanted two orders of Bananas Foster bread pudding, but were told they only had one left. The entrees and other stuff we were able to get were ok, but nothing special. Overall, disappointing.

WOW... am I really in WV? Elle and Jack's is amazing - a far departure from my previous dining experiences in WV. The restaurant itself has a very cool decor. The environment was a tad noisy but super upbeat and almost electric. The service was spot on. The food... was amazing - for an appetizer, we had the blue cheese dip, and wifie is still talking about it - delicious. I had the scallops, which were awesome. Wifie had the burger, which she loved. I am convinced this is the place for dinner in Wheeling, WV...

I love this place my husband and I have been here three times and soon to be our fourth for his birthday! The food is amazing and you feel like you're on vacation! The ambiance is chill!

Thyme chicken

Long time valley resident I finally stopped by and from the start it was a neat little place. That is where it ended. A birthday celebration was ruined by poor quality food. The filet was more steamed than grilled, curry shrimp had tails on it still gnocchi was unpleasant. Muscles were farmed lastly the chicken tasted gamey and boiled. Sad $200+ dinner for four.

Blue cheese dip

Really at a cross roads reading the other reviews after our lunch experience here. This vibes were…read morecozy and everyone at the door was welcoming and friendly. And that's where it pretty much ended for me. We were greeted by 2 individuals prior to being sat. Once we were sat I was told I couldn't have any outside drinks. I was carrying a hot tea in a paper cup when we walked in. No one else mentioned this. I later read a posting in the bathroom about outside drinks being prohibited. Seemed like it was mostly to prevent outside alcohol but was a blanket statement for all drinks. I thought it was odd I had to take my hot tea back to my car. Besides that the waitress wasn't super warm and friendly either. If I remember correctly she started with, "what are you drinking?" After I had to walk my tea to our parked vehicle. The food was mid. Very very mid. I got a salmon savory crepe. The salmon was dry, almost white in color and just seemed old. The crepe itself was chewy and hard to cut. My husband's wrap was decent. Kids plates were also decent. I liked that you "created" their plate from 3 categories or options. Overpriced for quality and portion. Once our food arrived there was a swarm of gnats that came with it. Our table was wobbly so cutting any food shook the entire surface. Our toddler caught on to this and wanted to rock the table the whole time. So between holding the table, trying to cut food and swatting gnats away.. it just wasn't a good experience all together. I'm confident there are better options in town for us to try when we return.

Crepes are the star here, so definitely get a crepe! They have sweet crepes and savory crepes, and…read morewe got one of the classic sweet options with Nutella, berries and whipped cream. It was big enough to share with three people! This is the type of restaurant that has silly names for everything on their menu. For example, Crepes of Wrath is a savory crepe with sausage, and Banana-fo-Fana has bananas and granola in it. Usually, I refuse to say these silly names out loud when I order, and instead will just order according to the ingredients. ("Give me the Nutella and berries crepe.") I know. I'm that person! You don't want to take me to a silly-names restaurant, because I will ruin your silly-names experience. In this case, though, the silly names are so pervasive throughout the menu that I was overwhelmed and I just gave up. Sometimes, you just have to grit your teeth and play along. Yes, I did say, "Give me the Last Tango." Before the crepe, though, we got lunch. Later Alligator has a huge sandwich menu. At least two dozen different sandwiches! Then there's wraps, salads, appetizers and a kids' menu. I got the Fowl Play (sigh), which is chicken salad with lettuce and tomato on a croissant. My oldest kid got the Club Car, which included ham, turkey, Swiss cheese and lettuce. In case you were wondering: The silly names extend to the kids menu, too! (Which Wich Tuna Fish is just one example.) My younger kid got the Munchkin (mac and cheese). The kids' mac and cheese here is a mini cup, so just keep that in mind if your child eats a lot. Both of my children eat like birds, so the size of the mac and cheese wasn't a problem for us. This is also the type of restaurant that has interesting things everywhere you look (including the restroom!), so take some time to look around at all of the paraphernalia everywhere.

Great Food, Great Server Livia, great atmosphere, great location, and cleanliness was great. But…read morefor my wife's and I anniversary I wanted to play the junk box at 4:45 PM on March 10, 2026, to play Music Groups, Aerosmith, "I Don't Want To Miss A Thing", and Savage Garden, "I Knew I Loved You". So I approached the juke box, and the bar tender Whoever said, that this is a family-owned restaurant, and they don't play the juke box during the day, because it is a family restaurant, but they have the Game Room, playing crude country music that doesn't respect the family, and they say my music is going make trouble. Plus they can have restricted stuff from not playing, instead, I felt singled out as a guest there. Yes, you can have your double standard rules, because this is America, and the freedom to do whatever you feel like, but that does not mean I have to go there to be singled. I don't have to go back there. The first time was great in January, but on my wife and I anniversary of 26 years, I think I can find a place where I feel more welcomed. It is always the case of passing a great place down through the family, in order for it feel unwelcomed of the glory days. Yes, I know this place has been around since the 1990's, but it is a very unwelcoming place. You can act nice, while showing you didn't want us there. They said it was because Karaoke was at 7PM, while a minute song at 4:45PM. While they didn't even know what songs I was going to place. Again, I thought it would be an old-fashioned feel. Thus instead, I felt the Cold Ridged Religious Feel that was a double standard of Gambling Rooms and so forth. Yes, I went to seminary and everything else, but I am going to let everyone choose their own path. They have their ridged rules, but that does not mean I have to eat there, especially for anniversaries. It is not an anniversary or a place for specially occasions. Again, it doesn't bother me one bit, because I move on, but I am raised with certain values to tell what I believe. My wife felt the onion soup was too breaded and cheesy. They had a great Salad and Gluten Free Pizza. And the bathrooms are clean when I went in there, but I don't feel welcomed there. Like you're a stranger that should never return. I just wonder.

Fantastic I like…read moretotally flew by the seat of my pants when I planed the West Virginia portion of our trip. Wheeling seemed to be somewhere in the vicinity of our drive to Morgantown tomorrow so I decided to stay the night. Looking for a place for dinner, I stumbled upon this place on Yelp in wheeling. Little did I know what an iconic place this is. We arrived at 5:15 on a Wednesday evening bc we are getting old. A couple leaving at 5:15 made us see our future. We were fortunately seated immediately. The inside is SO CUTE. I can't get enough of it. It felt like such an authentic Italian experience. Our server was incredible. So nice, personable, helpful. We started with our beverage orders. I went with a little something off their cocktail menu the elderflower martini which, exactly as I expected, was way more like spiked juice than a "martini" but I wouldn't want it any other way. Don't think I wasn't intrigued by the fried cheese but we have been eating a fair amount of that lately so instead of offering an app, I opted for an entree (stuffed rigatoni) and a side of broccoli. GF ordered fettuccine with red clam sauce. She got a house salad and I didn't for some reason. The broccoli was seasoned wonderfully but the texture wasn't as crisp as I would have liked. The rigatoni and the house sauce was ORGASMIC. That sauce is incredible I would gladly buy it by the jar. The rigatoni were al dente pillows of creamy ricotta heaven. Spectacular. GF regarding her red clam sauce pasta, "delicious". We also ordered the tiramisu to go so stay tuned on that.

Great food and service! It was my first time here and I really enjoyed it. The restaurant is small…read morebut cozy with tons of old pictures hung up on the walls giving it that true authentic Italian vibe. Our waitress was friendly and went above and beyond the whole time we were there. They give you bread and butter with your meal and it was really good. I ordered wedding soup and ate every last bite or sip of it. For my entree I went with the classic spaghetti and meatballs and it was delicious. The sauce was perfect and they sell jars of it that you can take home with you. I had a great experience here and will definitely be back.
