Beautiful area to have a drink. Ordered the meatloaf with green bean almandine and potato purée and cinnamon Apple streusel cheesecake for dessert. Meatloaf tasted like Mom used to make. Slices were so moist and thick I didn't even finish one. Green bean almandine was seasoned to perfection. Potato purée was smooth with the right amounts or cheese blended in. Only words I can use to explain the cheesecake is absolutely delicious. . .crispy crust with the perfect amount of sweetness. Wish I had a cooler with me to take the leftovers home. Prices were very reasonable. Will eat here next time I'm passing thru!

We were there on a Friday night for two hours, and there was maybe four tables there the whole time we were there service isn't bad. They're just very slow. The pulled pork eggrolls were very tasty. The house made, honey mustard for dipping was the best part. The $6 bread service, which is four tiny pieces of dried out focaccia and a DIY olive oil basic dipping experience was not worth it. Defiantly pass. We had two bakers at the table and everyone agreed it wasn't well made focaccia. The house salad is beautiful. It had red peppers in it which was a nice take, and everything in it felt very fresh. The house made ranch was delicious. My ribeye was cooked to the temp I requested but it should come with some sort of sauce or garnish. Instead of having classic mashed potatoes on the menu, they have some sort of potato purée. I was not the only one that got it with their meal one complained it was too salty, I thought it was too sweet. all around, It seemed like it's over reaching to be fancy when your guest would prefer a classic mash. I did not taste the desert (I believe it was an apple strudel cheesecake ) but I was told it was good None of us drank, but there were good beer and cocktail options. I would go again if I were trying to stay in Elkins, but options in Elkins are very limited and this was definitely better than most of the other options in the area. I'm curious about some other things on the menu.

I'd summarize Jimbo's menu as burgers, wings, and other chicken items. The menu isn't huge, but Jimbo's does they do WELL. I had a crispy chicken wrap and "chicken logs" (basically fried chicken bits in an egg roll wrap) and both were excellent. Prices for food and drink were reasonable. The draft list is decent with a mix of domestics and a few crafts from the local brewery. Service at the bar was top notch, atmosphere was great, and fellow patrons were most welcoming to a couple of out-of-towners. I will definitely be back!

The first time I ate here was in October of 2023 with my girlfriend. It was a very special night…read morebecause it was our first getaway together and our first romantic dinner together. So, anytime we are in the area we like to stop in to relive those unforgettable memories, which has been several since then. This is one of the very few places that I have always recommended to anyone who lives remotely close to the area, who is traveling close by for work, or is visiting the area for the amazing outdoor activities they have to offer. So let's delve into why this place is one of my favorite dining destinations in West Virginia, but why I also have certain issues with it as well. The things this place does that makes it so great are the things that most restaurant in large cities do to stay relevant. They evolve with said times and constantly change things up to make themselves more enticing in regards to each and every dining experience you have here. There are very few places if any in West Virginia that can give you all this place has to offer. Whether it's well crafted cocktails, somewhat eloquent and mostly fresh and well seasoned dishes, or an ambience inside or outside that is a diamond in the rough. I have been to several 1, 2, and 3 Michelin star restaurants and how they operate in regards to service is what sets them apart from everyone else but also which most can only dream of achieving. This place could probably get one star at some point in time if certain aspects were to change, truly. Listen, I don't mind paying a lot of money for an experience that blows my mind, even if it's just a one or two bite 7 or 9 course tasting menu, but this place wants to blow up your wallet without ever achieving such mind altering dishes. The food is good don't get me wrong, but not 2 and 3 Michelin star prices good for what you get. The last time I went here we spent $125 on two apps which were literally four bites each and two cocktails. Is that a lot of money for the amount of food and drinks we got in a small town in rural West Virginia, absolutely! I get it, charge a high price and see if people will pay it and go from there, but most will only do that once or maybe twice because of the atmosphere or higher expectations upon returning, but the food and service doesn't match the price points in any of my personal experiences here. With that being said, I do love this place and I have stayed here as well. Are the rooms fancy or even above average, No! The hotels down the road are cheaper, much nicer, and include amenities, but to be able to enjoy a nice meal on their patio with an amazing view over a bottle of wine, tasty cocktails, or local beers and not have to worry about driving is worth the price in my opinion. I will say, The Forks is still one of my favorite restaurants in West Virginia. Not just because the food is good(not great but good) but because it's the total experience in itself. It's hard to find a restaurant that serves good food and drinks with a view like they have, especially in West Virginia and that is their main selling point and that is why most come and take pics of the views and dishes but leave wondering how they spent $150-250(before tip) on a meal for two with maybe one drink each while still being hungry and annoyed by the service and high prices. I'd say come to grips with the fact they want you to believe that you are eating at the French Laundry in NAPA Valley, but in all actuality you're just eating at a restaurant with somewhat locally sourced foods depending on the season from people with high expectations of their customers without ever truly proving that their food, drinks, and service are worth their prices. I do check their menu on a regular basis to see if they are offering anything new that I'd like to come and try. I have seen a subtle drop in their prices which leads me to believe they are starting to realize that they can still attain the same type of clientele without ever causing new customers to never return. To end this review I'd like to say that their service is probably the worst part of your dining experience here. In fact you will get better service at a local chain restaurant. If you are a waiter or owner treat every customer as if they are Pete Wells of the NY Times because you never know who can break or make you. If you own a restaurant and you don't have the personality to make your new customers feel warm and welcome, I'd say stay in the kitchen and let someone who can be the head of house so they can hire a proper staff who are friendly, smile, and make you feel they are very grateful for your business. FYI: The last time we came here we literally sat looking at each other for about 20 minutes after finishing our food and drinks before finally getting so annoyed that we got up and walked up to one of the owners to pay our bill, unacceptable.
