Alpine Lodge and Restaurant — Restaurant in West Virginia

My wife and I came for our one year anniversary tonight after hearing a recommendation. You would never guess an old building in the middle of the mountains could offer such a FINE DINING experience. Don’t be fooled when you pull up outside to an old building where you would expect bar food. We are surely foodies and have eaten at amazing restaurants across the world. I could not believe how perfect the food was prepared 👌. The service was EXCELLENT, but we were given plenty of space to enjoy and not be bothered, yet perfectly attended to .The food came out very timely , and it couldn’t have been any better!! The ribeye was cooked to perfection and the FRESH crab cake with it was to die for . The wife ordered crab stuffed salmon and the salmon was wonderful ( not tiny and overcooked like 99% of restaurants) I expected just a little bit of crab but it was literally a mountain of FRESH AMAZING crab.. honestly I haven’t had crab that fresh tasting while at a beach. We started off with the crab dip which I also highly recommend . The portions were large and soo generous (the one thing I hate about fine cuisine is the super tiny portions ) Chef John delivers nearly 5 star quality food in a very large serving size. Seriously a hidden GEM of a restaurant, worth the trip even if you drive an hour out of your way. Honestly, the service was impeccable , then top that with a 5 star meal !?!? Couldn’t come up with a complaint if I thought about it for days … and admittedly, I’m a tough critic at times! … thanks staff and John Curry !! It was a one year anniversary dinner we...

This was my first time here and I will be back with friends! The blackened salmon and green beans were delicious. The crab dip was tasty as an appetizer and is better with the bread brought with your meal v the white bread served with the appetizer. The desserts are not made in house, but the strawberry cake was nice. They have a lot of wonderful seafood, steak and other meat options. The house made salad dressing was divine. Not much on the menu if you are a vegetarian. The service is the best! The waitress was genuinely friendly, attentive and made great recommendations. Nice place after a long hike or day out enjoying the great outdoors. I appreciate the ability to have an excellent meal in a casual...

This is 5 star food and service in 3 star atmosphere. Unless you are a major fan of antiques and blue grass. Service was fast, friendly, and attentive. Thank you Christy!The food was plentiful and extremely good. We had crab dip that rivals anything in Annapolis and our medium ribeye steaks were done perfectly - pink in the middle, no red running, and grill char on the outside, as well as tender, juicy, and flavorful. The sides were well prepared as well. We will visit this place the next time in the area.

P.S. Cash or LOCAL check only, dinner is $$$, only open Thurs., Fri., and Sat, 4 - 9, but the food...
