Muriale's Italian Kitchen

Muriale’s is an iconic restaurant in the Fairmont area that’s been in business since 1969. Authentic homemade Italian dishes served in an elegant atmosphere. The service staff are friendly and professional. The generous portions will delight the most discerning patrons. The lasagna, ravioli, and bruschetta were delicious. Love the Mountaineer team spirit and Christmas charm on a cold wintery evening!

So happy we came across this Italian restaurant spontaneously on our road trip in WV. I immediately fell in love with the interior and vibes of the restaurant - so cozy and elegant. Our waitress provided wonderful service and was patient with us. She also gave amazing recommendations!

For food, we ordered brushetta for appetizer, which was so tasty! For entrees, we ordered chicken parmesan and sphaghetti with meatballs, which are both flavorful. Leftover chicken parmesan tasted even better. Then for dessert, we got the almond cream cake (similar to tiramisu), which was a great way to end our meal. All in all, we had a wonderful experience and will definitely be back!

Stopped in from out of town and was pleased with the service. Marinara wasn't our family's 'cup of tea' but each dish was well prepared and worth the cost. We got a entree salad (delicious), 3 different pasta dishes and a pizza. The pasta dishes came with side salads that were very good. I would have no reservations about returning for another meal and sampling more of the relatively extensive menu.

Was taken out for my birthday by a friend . I had never been here as I am originally from Pittsburgh, not West Virginia. Talk about authentic....our waitress had come over from Italy 6 weeks prior for college. Amazing food, wonderful staff and service. Homemade pastas, sauces and dressings makes this restaurant a must!

Traveling from PA back to SC, I found this popular restaurant, which is a short drive off I-79 in Fairmont, WV. This family Italian stop has a ton of parking which was handy with our cargo trailer. We were greeted and offered seating on their rear deck overlooking the Tygart Valley River. The weather was perfect and Emily took great care of us. We split a Caesar Salad and a Meatball Sandwich with hot peppers. Both were outstanding! In fact, I took part of the sub for road snacking later. The food is fresh and definately worth a try. Sorry about the full size salad pic...we hadn't eaten since very early, so there wasn't much salad left for pictures. Oops.

Overall, one of the best Italian restaurants around the town !

We ordered Whole Wheat Pasta in Vegetarian Sauce, Cheese bread and House Salad.

We love the house salad and house bread with white butter. The Pasta was good as well.

They have great gluten-free options. Their staff is always wonderful.

Muriale's is a local icon-- and for good reason. Serving delicious authentic Italian dishes in a cozy yet refined atmosphere, Muriale's is the perfect gathering spot for any occasion. The service is always great and the top tier food is always worth the wait. We highly recommend the gnocchi with meatballs, the chicken parm, and any of their many made-in-house desserts.

Loved the salad & veal parm. Dessert was delish. Took loaf of fabulous bread home

Growing up in the area, I hadn't been to Muriales in years. And it didn't disappoint. By far, it's the best Italian I've had. And the side salad and dressing is still the best.

Company took us out for our holiday meal. Food was on point the whole meal. Had apps, meals, and dessert. I thoroughly enjoyed my meal. Our waitress(Lisa)was beyond pleasant, and we never had to ask for anything. The atmosphere is outdated for sure. Plates and silverware are worn. Could use a nice update to match the rest of the experience. I'm going back and recommend!

If you are looking for excellent Italian food with a great atmosphere and friendly staff in the heart of West Virginia look no further. I don't live there but visit friends and we often take in a meal at Muriale's when in town. You won't be disappointed. PS: Great desserts too.

Best place in town by a long shot, but the restaurant choices in Fairmont are pretty limited. They make spectacular Italian dishes, so much so that we ate here two nights in a row while on vacation. The Chicken Parm should be your first choice. The chicken is perfectly prepared and very juicy while not being soggy. The spaghetti was actually angel hair pasta, which surprised us, but takes nothing away from anything. The house marinara is the secret. Got the gnocchi the second night with the two meatballs and that great marinara. Plenty of sauce for a healthy dose to each individual gnocchi. Portions are perfect to leave quite content. Would not miss another chance to have dinner here. Our wait staff also were very well trained and perfectly attentive. This place would be top tier in any city. Prices were reasonable.

Food was excellent, and the atmosphere was great. Servers were very attentive and helpful. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone.

A MUST GO TO here in Fairmont. The Italian food was amazing, service was amazing, the drinks were amazing. The Cesare salad dressing was unlike we have ever had before. It almost had a spice to it. I loved the shrimp fra Diavlo as my entree. It was SO GOOD.

One thing we did wish was for the meatballs to be a little bigger. My fiance thought that the meat used in the meatballs was too finely minced. Odd thing, but that's how he felt!

Definitely will be back :)

I’m not usually a fan of Italian food. Now with that being said, I was delighted by the authentic food at Muriale’s! If you’re ever in the mood for Italian or just want to enjoy a well made meal, look no further. Excellent food and service.

Having had our expectations high because of my family living near by,we made plans for a get together of 10 + members and were treated to welcoming accommodations for all and had exceptional service from appetizers to well made adult beverages and a very warm felt like home cooked meal.We did notice the intimate setting in the front for what would make a nice date night out.All that being said I will always have this place to remind me and my family of a memories.

The BEST Italian I've had in WV. (So far;) ) Everything from the house salad, gnocchi, cheese sticks, and blueberry lemon cake, was absolutely fantastic. My husband had the trio, I sampled it, and wow, I can't wait to come back!

This is our go to restaurant in Fairmont when we are home visiting. Authentic Italian quisine including the homemade pastas and amazing sauce! The service is impeccable as well as the atmosphere. We just ate here as a family of 18 after a funeral and accommodated us perfectly complete with 2 servers and utmost attention even stoping to take our group photo in another room after our meal. They suggested the appetizers platters. Highly recommend! They were delicious & perfect to share family style with huge portions! We all took home leftovers from our regular meals!

Gotta say, heard allot before I tried it. Overall really nice choice for dinner! Portions were big,my sausage and peppers was delightful. Inside is a little dated, kinda tacky even but the service and food was the main focus, and it didn't disappoint. Wine was reasonably priced and complimented my meal perfectly, we really had a great time, thank you muriales!!
