The Preston County Inn - KINGWOOD

Terrible food plus food was made wrong or intentional

Looks as if we were the first to enjoy our meal on the table opened thru...ended upwards, but if they will be open table; the menu should be kept up to date...has no idea that only one buffet would be the only option for the meal. the best nativity was excellent, beautiful desserts, choc. fondue was beautiful, coffee angels eating cake unique, coffee was fantastic.

Super interesting atmosphere and excellent food and drinks. Lots of comfort food. We had spaghetti, Caesar salad, and a drink from Marilyn's all excellent.

The wait staff was rude and very slow. Generally the food is good. The building and grounds are very impressive. Total rating one star.. Monroe's across the street provides a good meal.

I had heard great things about the Preston County Inn while talking with some friends one night over dinner, so of course I had to give it a try as soon as possible. For some of the places I visit, I do some online research of the menu, dress code, and what to expect when I arrive at the restaurant. I reviewed the menu beforehand, so I knew I was ordering the Ruben sandwich with fries and some bleu cheese dressing on the side. Also, I noted online that the website said it was casual fine dining , which caused some concern about how to dress, as I have been known to underdress a bit at times (for the past three years t shirt and shorts have been the clothing of the day). So, I went in fully casual mode shorts, t shirt and sweatshirt. All of which were perfect, as it is totally casual. While the website uses the term casual fine dining , the dress is casual. What I didn 't expect was the layout of the restaurant or an appreciation for the age of the primary place of business. It is a pre Civil War home in Kingwood, WV. It has had some additions over the years to make it into a functioning inn and restaurant. My first thoughts upon entering the location was eclectic , but the décor grew on me as I enjoyed my lunch. Now on to the food: I ordered the Ruben sandwich, that is a favorite of Chef Stephen Clemens (we had a second or two to chat). He mentioned that the restaurant is as locally sourced as it can be, and the sauerkraut came from Roger ' Farm, which is local producer of the cabbage. I really enjoyed the Ruben, and I can say that the ingredients were fresh and well prepared. French fries were cooked perfectly, and you could taste that they were freshly cut. The food is great. I know this is dragging a bit, but overall, I will go back to try many of the other dishes on the menu. Who knows, I might spend a night at the Preston County Inn.
