Restaurant and restroom were clean and organized. The food was fantastic! Delicious. Skillfully made. Great variety! The environment is romantic but casual enough to be in regular attire or formal doesn't matter. Live pianist was wonderful, everything was perfect! read more

Had the best dinner experience at Bayfront today for a family dinner. We sat at the teppanyaki table and had a feast prepared by a delightful chef who was entertaining us the entire time. They have specials for children under 12 and seniors (65+) which made it affordable for us, and then my husband and I got the VIP for 2 which gave us a little bit of everything and was very worth it. Everything tasted fantastic, especially the fillet mignon and the lobster. The vibe was lively with lots of families having a great time. Incredibly helpful staff who checked in on us too. Definitely will be back again when we're in town and next time will check out their sushi too! read more

Tasty food best option if you want sushi the service was nice and we're always asking if everything was good and the plus of having the waterfront view while you eat read more

Vanessa is a fantastic server! Full of life, happy and super welcoming. We stopped in for a drink on their patio and returned for dinner the same night. Hubby ordered multiple sushi rolls and the rest of us loved the tempura veggie & shrimp dinners which came with soup or salad and rice. Pricing and quality was great! read more

Our experience started off on a positive note. The hostess was friendly, welcoming, and seated us promptly. Unfortunately, that's where the good experience ended. We waited about an hour for our food to arrive. When it finally came out, it was incredibly disappointing. The spaghetti Rangoon tasted like it had canned soup mixed into it, making it mushy and unappetizing. The gyoza also wasn't prepared well and was disappointing. The side salad came with an extremely sweet dressing that honestly tasted more like condensed milk than a salad dressing, completely overpowering the salad. To make matters worse, we were automatically charged a 20% gratuity before we even had a chance to review our bill. We weren't informed about it ahead of time, and it left a bad impression, especially given the overall experience. Between the long wait, poor quality of the food, and the unexpected automatic gratuity, this was a very disappointing visit. I won't be returning or recommending this restaurant. read more

I got the lobster roll to go and it was so delicious! I didn't have time to go to the restaurant, but the presentation of the roll in the to go box looked great! It had a piece of the lobster for the look. Def would try it again if I'm in the area. read more

Bayfront Restaurant was just okay for me. The food itself wasn't bad, but nothing really stood out. Service felt a bit stretched thin, which I'm guessing was because they were understaffed that day. The table layout was kind of awkward too. It didn't feel like the most comfortable setup. Overall, it wasn't a terrible experience, but I don't think I'd go out of my way to come back. read more

We went here as a special occasion to celebrate my niece graduating from college and reserved a table where they cook the food in front of you. There was a group of 6 of us. We ate from the Teppanyaki menu and loved it. The service was great and it was entertaining and fun. The food was also great. The restaurant is right on the water so it has amazing views! A great restaurant and great experience that left us all with smiles on our faces. Highly recommend! read more

My wife and I went to bayfront for their Teppanykai. The food was delightful. I recommend getting the dinner for two its cheaper that way, but you'll still be paying $100 which is well worth it. The food was delightful especially the filet migon, that melted in your mouth. Gorgeous views of the bay, a great place to celebrate a birthday, or anniversary. P.s. if you go to teppanykai try to get a group a friend's together, otherwise you'll be paired with strangers. read more

Visiting Eureka for the first time. Sushi rolls were decent but the Beef teriyaki was very upsetting. The meat was dry and flavorless. I'd avoid it if you plan on coming here. Service was okay but the server (Alexander) did not come at all to check up on our party of 4 . Better luck next time I guess read more

Beautiful place, food was great. Service was great. Staff was polite and fast. The atmosphere was great. read more

We had Kala as our server, first time there recommended from someone at our hotel and absolutely 10/10. We got in and were sat immediately, got our orders in within 10 or 15 minutes on what seemed to be a busy night . We were in sort of a rush with only a hour to eat and without saying it our server understood immediately and got us started. We were checked in on perfectly timed and our server had gotten 4 tables at once so the time management skills were very much alive. Our food was quick and ABSOLUTELY AMAZING, we got the lobster roll, Dungeness crab roll, miso soup, jalapeno poppers, and clam chowder. Both rolls absolutely amazing but lobster roll was the favorite of the 2. Miso soup is my favorite already but theirs was amazing!! And the poppers are an absolute must have, not the regular jalapeño and cream cheese I was expecting but shrimp and sauces and other stuff I was too busy enjoying to read the description of it. Overall 10/10 experience, I work in food service and the flow of the staff was something I adore, service- fast, understanding, excellent, food- nothing to say but AMAZING, do wish we knew to sit in the hibachi section though, definitely next time. And ambiance was perfect with an amazing sunset harbour view. Must visit for sure! read more

Oh boy, where to start? We've been going to bayfront restaurant for a very long time. Today we went and grabbed a sushi meal that was basically inedible. The rolls and the Nigiri were made with rice that was old and stale tasting like it been sitting out for quite some time. We were shorted one Nigiri, which we probably wouldn't have eaten anyways because all of the other Nigiri we got the fish was rubbery and not fresh at all Why didn't we send it back, You ask? Because today we decided to pick up the order to go and by the time we got home, we realized that not only had we've been shorted our food, but it was also not good. This will be the last time we go to the bayfront for any type of meal and definitely not sushi. I do not recommend. Edit: the person who took my order was very pleasant, however, when I called back to speak to the manager and was told they were "too busy to take manager calls". So yeah... never going back. read more

We arrived in Eureka after a long drive with growling stomachs! We searched for the best looking restaurant with a great view and settled on the Bayfront restaurant. While the view outside was enjoyable, the inside of the restaurant looked a little dated. So did the waitress uniforms. After we perused the menu, we settled on an edamame app, some sushi rolls, a romaine salad with chicken, and a burger and fries for my daughter. The menu was quite extensive and had a lot of interesting and delicious looking options, especially since they combined sushi/seafood and Italian dishes. It took a while to get the appetizer and I was delivered the wrong salad. During that time, one of the other tables came in and left, I'm assuming because no one came to serve them. The sushi was decent and salad all right, but nothing to write home about. I don't know how they do their fries, but they are some of the best and most interesting I've had. Amazing texture, but way over salted! When we received the bill, one of the items was priced higher than it should have been and some of the items we ordered weren't even on there. Our waitress was friendly, but her mind and attention seemed elsewhere read more

We came for a quick bite to eat at the end of a fun filled day so neither of us wanted much. I had a phenomenal Black Jack roll, which was Spicy Tuna, Shrimp Tempura & Cucumber Inside. Topped with Seared Ahi, Ponzu Sauce & Tobiko. It was fresh, tasty, and came super fast. I also had a glass of Pinot noir from a local California vineyard. Both were exceptional. read more

Disclaimer I came here about five years ago. This restaurant offers a panoramic view of the bay. Along with a boardwalk to walk at after feeling a bit stuffed for the evening. I prefer to order from their specials menu, the last two times I ordered I had sushi, which usually never disappoints. I have yet to try their Japanese teppanyaki tables, plus sake & other drinks. I recently learned that Bayfront restaurant not only offers a restaurant but also has a vacation & executive rentals for those water lovers. I have yet to go back because I can see that they renovated the space to look more modern and clean. read more

I've been eating at the Bayfront since it was the Ritz, at F and Third. The sushi is the thing. However, the place is going downhill, I'm sad to say. About a year ago they replaced their ceramic puddling dishes (for mixing soy sauce and wasabi) with plastic ones, which too easily scoot around the table. Now the miso soup comes in plastic dishes. I asked for some more wasabi, and it arrived in a plastic (Melmac actually) dish. The sushi serving platters are wooden with the sealant worn off all around the edges, exposing the wood. The tea cup was ceramic, but chipped and cracked. Can unfinished wood and cracked crockery be effectively sterilized? I have to wonder. The sushi is still good. Try the Black Kitty roll. Service is usually attentive, and the view of the ship moorings is outstanding. I hope they can get their act back together. read more

Kids eat free on Tuesdays. Go somewhere with a family of four and show me a bill under 100 bucks anywhere else. I've only eaten sushi and that is equivalent to any of the pricier sushi places around here, so all in all I give it a major win. The view is great, and the service is totally fine (albeit, on a slow night, it was Tuesday). read more

Yummy sushi, friendly helpful service, nice views of the marina full of fishing boats. read more

We went for dinner after a long day of hiking. We were seated after a few minutes. We had a table next to the window with an amazing view. Our server was great. She took our drink and apps order very quickly. There was a door open near by and she offered to close it because she noticed we were cold. We didn't even have to ask. I was so grateful. Such great service. Our apps and sushi were both great. The only reason why I knocked one star is because the food took a really long time to come out. Other than the long wait for food, our overall experience was great. read more

Really disappointed in our experience this evening which didn't even go beyond the hostess stand. We had a reservation for our mother's 75th birthday party this evening at 7 pm. At 7:15 I checked on the table and was told they were running behind. I asked to speak to a manager, who informed us our table would be another 45 minutes that they're overbooked and running behind tonight. If you've overbooked for the evening it would only be common courtesy to contact your large reservations for the evening and let them know their tables wouldn't be available for an hour past their original reservation time. With toddlers and children in our party, we told her we needed to talk with eachother to make a decision on whether or not we wanted to stay. She came back over to check to see if we had an answer in the middle of us deciding and it felt very rude and rushed. I have been in restaurant management for 15 years and felt the entire experience was unprofessional. I would have offered our party something to drink or done anything I could to at least keep us happy but they didn't seem to care they were running an hour behind. We ended up calling fiesta cafe and left, took our party elsewhere. I couldn't imagine supporting a business who wouldn't at least communicate to a 75th birthday party of 12 they were so behind in the evening. Shame on them. read more

We enjoyed our dinner, Spicy Beef Teriyaki and Chicken Katsu, each served with miso soup, and tempura veggies. Large servings! Had we known we would have ordered one dish with the tempura veggies to share and one without. Also offers "at table grill with chef, displaying knife skills and an exciting bbq fire! read more

Food is great, the service is amazing, and it's really comfortable. I like seeing ocean out the window.

I was stationed there from 2008-2013 with the coast guard and love this place! I especially love the yellow sauce from the hibachi! Is there anyway to get the recipe for it? I no longer live there and would love to have it again! read more

Crab sandwich was awful. Mostly deep fried batter little crab. Asked for my drink 3 times before it came after my meal. We sat in the corner next to the window and no one else in the dinning area and they sat a screaming kid right on top of us we couldn't even talk to each other. read more

Really frustrating, I live right around the corner and Bayfront happens to be one of the only two sushi restaurants I will go to in Humboldt. Times have been tough lately so I haven't had the funds to go as often as I'd like, so I'm really excited to get some sushi tonight.... I called at 9:10 to place an order for takeout....They don't close at 9:30.... They close at 9. If you stop taking orders at 9pm then that is what time your restaurant closes. Why even bother answering the phone! I get it, it's Saturday night and everyone wants to go home, but the hours should be adjusted accordingly. read more

The food was good. The chef was fun and our server was great. They charge too much for hot Tomodachi. The large is $12.00 and at other Japanese restaurants you get 2x the amount for the same price. Overall it was a good experience. We have been a few times and the food is consistent. I'm taking a star away for the serving size of the Tomodachi though. read more

We went there hoping to not get any tables on a Saturday night, surprisingly it was really open and we got a great view of the ocean. The sushi was definitely worth it. Food was very good including their vegetarian/vegan options. The Italian + Japanese menu was a little worrisome before we went there but definitely can vouch for the authenticity of the Japanese food. Service was also amazing and spot on!!! read more

the sushi is good, but the other menu items are just so-so. but the most irritating part of the experience was seeing the extra charges on the menu. after doing a google search i learned that these "hidden charges" are actually illegal under SB478 enacted in 2024. in the future, we'll go elsewhere. read more

Had a great time with my family last night! Food was delicious, and the portions for the entrees were just right Not too small. My tempura was crispy, light and not overly greasy, and the udon was especially slurpable. Our waiter was great and super nice, hitting just the right balance of attentive and not catching me when I just took a big bite of food. I love sitting near the windows and being my able to watch the bay as I eat, just a really good dinner overall. read more

We were on our way to a high school baseball playoff game in Crescent City and stopped in Eureka for a meal. We decided on a Sushi spot and couldn't have been luckier. The place is warm as well as inviting and the hostess friendly. Our waitress Lainey was a dream, she was well versed on the menu, personable and answered all of our questions. The Spring rolls were fabulous, a meal by themselves. Everything was tremendous and the prices very competitive. It was a great start to our trip. Can't wait to find a reason to come back. read more

stupid share fee for teppanyaki but food looks really good blah blah blah blah blah blah

If you're looking for a chill and family friendly vibe I'd recommend Bayfront's Teppanyaki experience for the following reasons: 1) generous portions of grub - we ordered shrimp, scallops, chicken, and filet mignon (the best dish was by far the scallops) and had plenty leftover for another meal the next day; 2) Servers were attentive and kind, which as a Mom of three I greatly appreciated; 3) Food was out and prepared quickly, again as a Mom that's a win every day. Only reason I didn't put five stars is the shrimp ended up a little overcooked, but otherwise we really enjoyed the meal and the experience. Mini warning if you have younger kids - the fire does get pretty hot, large, and can startle small children if they're new to teppanyaki, but the water squirters off and on were good for a quick laugh and calm down for all. Thanks Bayfront! read more

Horrible food. They have a prime spot to make it into something decent but instead they choose to have a huge menu with Italian, American, Japanese and sushi which between the party of six we tried all and it is all bad!!! Please. Don't spend your money here. I only wished we went elsewhere where. $160 plus down the drain. Do everyone a favour and shut this place down. Let someone else open a normal eatable restaurant. Horrible. And I just noticed that this business is unclaimed. They don't even bother looking at the reviews. ‍‍ read more
