In 1938, Jim Tweel was encouraged by his new fiancée, Sally, to get a job if he wished to marry her. So, on June 9th, he purchased  Kennedy Dairy Bar in Huntington, WV, where he sold nickel ice cream cones, ten cent hamburgers, and fifteen cent milkshakes. Six years later, he began serving spaghetti and rebranded the store as Jim’s Steak & Spaghetti House. After eighty-six years in business, Jim’s is still in its original location and spaghetti remains the best seller. In 2019, the restaurant received a prestigious America’s Classic Award from the James Beard Foundation. 

In Nashville, we are a couple of Jim's grandkids that decided that our hometown needed this legendary classic Italian meat sauce, so that's what we are doing for you.
