The 3 of us ordered salmon with a bourbon BBQ glaze. It came with broccoli and rice. The salmon was overcooked and the glaze was all over the plate. The rice and broccoli was swimming in the glaze and therefore tasted like it. We also order zucchini planks. They were well presented but were way too salty and I like salt! It was noisy as happy hour was going on. We had hope to be in the dining area which has an outdoor dining area. Our server was efficient and very nice. That was the only thing good about the experience. The 2 people I brought were unimpressed and said they won't be back. I will as I know the salads and sandwiches offer some good choices. read more

Choose another place! Ambiance is five star for sports fans yes. Place was freezing inside, most of us ate with our coats on. Service? Well our waitress was funny and seemed adorable. We tipped her well. Our food, yes we had eight people with simple orders but over AN HOUR wait? The restaurant was empty and bar had 4 people drinking beer. I mean not one person eating in restaurant area. While waiting AFTER we ordered approx 4 other families came in, ordered, got drinks, got soup and salads, then food... then our food came. None I mean none of our food was served warm. How sad. This is bar food...That's my pet peeve. My dad's fish was so well done that it was black and he couldn't break it in half with his hands hardly, the worst ever. We couldn't understand HOW COULD the COOK send it out like that ??? So dad got to watch us all eat. When we were done, his came out. Nope, NEVER Again. We went out of our way to go there. So disappointed. I chose the place for my dads and sisters birthday celebration - HUGE mistake. read more

So I ordered the steak Philly and much to my surprise that the portions were not what the sandwich was priced. I think this will be the last that I order this bread sandwich. (Light on the steak) plenty of cheese though read more

West Sports Bar - Steak Philly wit cheese - Sports Bars Near Me - Wheeling, West Virginia

Despite what reviewer Thomas A. says, The West has done a complete 180 is now amazing.new management and new staff all around has turned this place into what it always should have been. Great food, excellent service, and Jeramiah has really done a great job bringing events to The West as well. I highly recommend checking this place out now that it's turned around. read more

New management 2020. Great wings, cold beer. Several tvs. Multiple rooms. It's a friendly joint.

Let me first say that I'm giving 5 stars based on what this place is - a bar and grill. But what a huge surprise this place was. There aren't a lot of great review s for this area. Additionally, the volume of reviews is rather low. So we were shooting from the hip. We happened to stumble in on a Tuesday evening and quickly found out that the special for Tuesday is $1.50 domestic drafts and $10.99 strip steak dinner. We started with the fried pickles - excellent. The other 4 had the steak and they were all big fans. I went with the ribs and tenders combo. Ribs, contrary to popular belief, should not fall off the bone. They should be tender, but still need to be bitten off the bone. These ribs were excellent!! After all was said and done - 2 apps, 3 22oz. beers, 4 steak dinners, one rib and chicken dinner - $87. Can't beat that!! Service was excellent! We had a young man named Derek who was charming, attentive, and helpful. Tons of tv's. Huge 100+ inch projection screen. Pretty old-feeling. Most of the places in Wheeling are bars. This one happens to be a very good one. Try it. read more

See all

Went to eat with my family...it took forever for the food to come and when the appetizers came the waitress refused to provide us with plates and we had to eat with paper towels on the table...half the food was either burnt, forgotten or not fully cooked....the waitress Auzah was also the rudest waitress I have ever encountered...I will not be back...and do yourself a favor a JUST DON'T GO read more

West Sports Bar - a man eating a piece of food - Sports Bars Near Me - Wheeling, West Virginia

Service- the waiter who we had named Kevin was excellent! He is friendly, courteous, and quick to meet our needs in a timely manner! We will definitely be back! read more

First time every going to this place a few weeks ago. Amazing service very nice and polite. Food is also very good. I recommend the burgers. This restaurant is something I would recommend if you are visiting the Wheeling area. read more

We have enjoyed this menu for many years. The added dinners from the Stratford Springs menu is an added bonus. Jeremiah and his team pull off an enjoyable meal with great music and drinks. The main dining room is a little overwhelming with its vastness but the enclosed and open patios are great spots! read more

We had a party of 13 people coming - we were able to sit immediately. Only seemed to be one waiter who was working extremely hard. Food did take a long time and most of it was cold. Everything you buy does not come with fries you have to order on the side so each mean cost 10-15 and fries are 4.95. read more

Forget any review prior to this one, as this place is operating with a completely new menu from the alpha. I just had "The Jones", which is perhaps the best buffalo chicken wrap (in a pita, actually) that I have had. My wife had a Mediterranean salad which she said was fantastic. We are beyond thrilled about this new and improved menu. read more

First off the wings were great! They are grilled then fried which is unique and really enjoyable. I ordered a burger and fries too and the fries were either burnt or they were old. Too crunchy to eat, but everything else was really good. read more

I honestly cannot tell you how the food was. When my wife and I went there, we sat for 20 minutes, and all the servers were around the bar socializing with I guess it would be the regular drinkers. After those 20 minutes, we were never acknowledged and we left. Not worth wasting my time. read more

I'm surprised no one has reviewed this place yet. It's a solid, run of the mill sports bar. It gets its 4th star for its specials, which are great. Every day has something different and they also have happy hour every day-way too many deals to type out :-) But today, for example (weds), they have 16 oz drafts for $1 from 6-9 and 1/2 off apps, well drinks, and drafts from 4-7. Can't beat that! Food is typical sports bar fare: burgers, wings, salads, pizza sandwiches, fried stuff. Entertainment: Pool, tons of tvs, set to (of course) sports, a juke box. read more

A good locals hang out where they make outsiders feel at home. Location is tucked away on top of a hill and very hard to find in the snow, but well worth the the trip. If I'm staying in this hellhole of a town again, I'll be back to this watering hole. read more

Let me start by saying I am local. Tonight made my 4th (and last) visit...I am writing my review from this evenings experience....but I will say the other two visits were not much different. I called yesterday and made a reservation for 8 on the deck...in front of the fireplace...and asked for a fire...it was 52 degrees at our reservation time. We all arrived at about the same time....and found out that the fireplace does not work...this should have been told to me yesterday. The man who sat us inside and helped ready our tables did ask me who I spoke with...but did not apologize. The server started off asking what I wanted to drink...I asked for coffee and several of the other people in my party said they would also like coffee....ummm...they don't have coffee...at least on Monday and Tuesday as they don't have a coffee pot (really....really...really!!!), they use Stratford Springs (neighboring restaurant) but they are closed on Monday and Tuesday....ummmm....someone asked for hot tea.....no go....(ugh...really!!!)!! I felt bad for the server as he was not familiar with the menu as he normally worked at Stratford Springs....I ordered a BLT with egg and several others ordered sandwiches also. A few minutes later the waiter came out and told me he had bad news....they didn't have eggs (ugh...really!!)...I told him that was OK.....then he came out and told us the sandwiches we ordered comes with french fries and coleslaw.....but they did not have cole slaw (umm...really!) so we could substitute applesauce or a salad. All but one of us got the salad and one got the applesauce. The salads and applesauce came out...the applesauce was in a single serve plastic container with a pull off top (imagine a Motts kids lunchbox size applesauce)...ok...I am not kidding...can I give a 1/2 star? So...with all of this...would you expect the manager to come out...and apologize...explain...or even ask if everything was alright? I did....but guess what....no manager ever came by. There was only one other table there and one or two people in the bar. I did not ask to speak to a manager as it was appparent that they had no concern for customer service. On a positive note..with all the TV's I could see the Penguins playing/Cleveland Cavs getting their championship rings and raise their banner and the World Series pre-game show. read more

Now operating as the temporary Alpha with outside dining with appropriate social distancing. Nice patio and deck. Same Alpha favorites on menu and same first class staff and service. Check ahead because they are pretty much weather dependent. Take out in any weather and same menu. Charlie is a master at providing predictable good food and good service. Be patient. Good things are coming at the new location. read more

My GF and I stopped in for a couple of beers before heading to a wedding reception.. There were a least 10 other people who attended the wedding at the bar as well talking amongst each other and waiting to get the bartender's attention.. The Bartender (a shorter young girl) was zoned out watching a TV at the other end of the bar, so I yelled and waved to get her attention and she finally broke away from the tv and came over. She said "I'm sorry I didn't come over earlier but I was totally into that movie.." I started laughing bc she was dead serious.. she got us a couple beers and walked back to watch her movie I hope it was a good one.. I think her customers kept interrupting her though read more

The outdoor area is the only nice part of this place. The food and service are terrible. The food is a step above fast food. It took forever for our food to get to our table. We ended up being their over 2 hours just got dinner dimply because the food took so long. read more

Went here on Saturday. This place is great because drinks are cheaper here than anywhere else. They also provide popcorn which is awesome. But the blonde bartender is one of the meanest bar restaurant workers I have ever encountered. I will never go back. read more

Been here several times now, and its hit and miss for a really good experience. It hasn't ever been bad though. Some servers/bartenders are more attentive than others, but for a sports bar most don't understand how to get desired sporting events on various TV's. Liquor prices are a little higher than average here, but beer prices aren't bad. As for the food it is above average but nothing to get overly excited to have. One of the toughest parts is making it up the hill to the place then worrying about coming back down after. Oh definitely need to update their pool tables as they are in bad shape. read more

This place used to be great and packed every weekend. Now, they don't clean their tap lines, they have a horrible bottle selection, and the employees have no idea what the are doing. I went to the bar and asked if they had any IPAs, because they mostly had bud, bud light, coors light, etc. the bartender gave me a blank stare. I said do you know what an IPA is? She said no, does it have another name? I'm sorry, but any bartender should know what an IPA is. I told her that it was an India Pale Ale and she said, excitedly, ooh we have that! She proceeded to bring me a Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. I explained the difference, and took it, because it was definitely the best beer they had. I did not have any food this trip so I can't speak to that. It used to be good, but so did the bar. The one saving grace was the deejay, Kaz, and karaoke. I'd steer clear, unless you want a decent karaoke experience. read more

West Sports Bar - The building even sucks. - Sports Bars Near Me - Wheeling, West Virginia

The West Sports bar is a good place for watching the game because of the many TVs and cheap drinks. The food is what you'd expect from a sports bar and is done well. They've upped their beer game and now offer some craft beers. I've always found the staff to be friendly and quick. All around a good place to catch the game with friends. read more

The service is bad and the cook decided to close the kitchen with a packed bar at 7pm on a Saturday night during a wvu game.

Came to this bar and restaurant while visiting Oglebay Festival of Lights. There wasn't too many people here, but we did come at 4pm on a Monday. Everything was great. Our server was nice, the decorations were fun, and the food was delicious!!! We got a chicken sandwich, fries, coleslaw, wings, fried pickles, and one drink for only $24!!! Such a great place and will continue to recommend to anyone traveling to Oglebay!! read more

Very unorganized...service sucks. We haven't been back here for about 5 years...and now I know why. This place used to be awesome after it first opened. Now, the staff acts as if they are annoyed/bothered to have to do their JOB by serving customers. They need to get bartenders like they used to have because those girls were fun to talk to and were on top of things! The ones there now act like you should just throw tips at them for standing there on their phones. It would also help if the red headed cook wasn't high the whole time he is working. Probably why the food STILL sucks, too... read more
