So I had to post an update. We just finished a grueling drive. We were starving and it was 9:30pm…read more Eel River was a logistical choice. Our service was 5 star which helped since we were exhausted. I have a super strong recommendation for the Cali 101 sandwich. It might be one of the sandwiches I've ever had. The fried parmesan on the tops of the bread sealed the deal. My wife asked for a custom burger. Mind you, the kitchen was closing but chef pulled off a beautiful dish. I don't normally photo food but wish I did. My wife goes bun-less and they served the dish on a bed of spinach (which she requested and they had to dig for it). To do all that as the kitchen is closing says something. They could have just thrown it on top. I am completely stealing that one. I love amber ale and they make a good one. I hope we can squeeze one last visit in before we leave.

The BBQ sauce on it was ok-not great sauce. Generous meat portion. Although I would have preferred a different bbq sauce, the sandwich was really great. $22. Hubs had the Philly and he was not impressed. It really was skimpy on the meat portion. He had plenty of cheese and bell peppers, too light on the onions. The waitress was really nice and brought him some extra ranch dressing for salad, no charge.

We were just passing through the city and stopped by here to grab some dinner…read more The staff was incredibly welcoming, and the overall service was honestly amazing from start to finish. On top of that, the entire facility was exceptionally clean, and having live sports playing was a fantastic add-on to the vibe. When it comes to the food, the portions are incredibly generous and you definitely get plenty of food for what you pay. However, while the quantity and value are there, the actual quality of the food could be improved a bit. Overall, it was a really good experience! If they can just elevate the food quality a notch, this place would be a 5/5. Still highly recommend stopping by for the great hospitality and atmosphere!

Slice was alright. Wasn't anything crazy, for the all meat. We also ordered a pie to eat, choosing a classic pep so we could try compare it to a NY style one. I was pleasantly impressed. It had thin and supple dough, robust enough for folding slices in half. Crust was thin style and had the crisp. It was really greasy, and the flavor was reminiscent more of NY than I expected. Was it a perfect NY slice? No, but it brought me further east than California. Best to eat it warm and heat it up. The cold version of the slice wasnt reminiscent of cold NY pizza I've had in the city. When hot, an interesting effort at doing NY style. It was just lacking an extra oomph that would make it 5. For those with extra pizza, I'd strongly recommend heating it up rather than eating it cold. I say that, even though I'm a big supporter of cold pizza. This pie needs to be warm.

Ok, here we go again…read more Five stars. Because somebody back there is practicing witchcraft on a grill. Some people move to Humboldt County for the redwoods. Others come for the rugged coastline. I came to work for a nonprofit hospital, and before I'd even settled in, somebody was already preaching the gospel of the AA Bar's steaks. During my orientation at Providence, back when it was associated with the Sisters of St. Joseph, a gentleman stood at the podium discussing the finer points of living in Eureka. And one of his first recommendations? "If you want a steak slapped on your plate after being slapped on a grill just the right way, you want the AA Bar." Well, naturally, I decided I needed to investigate. It took me TWO FUCKING YEARS to get there. Two years of my life I will never get back. Because, sweet baby Jesus, THAT MAN WAS RIGHT. Now, Eureka isn't exactly the first place that comes to mind when you're imagining a world-class steak experience. And the AA isn't some fancy steakhouse with white tablecloths and a sommelier hovering over your shoulder. It's a BAR. A wonderful, unpretentious, slightly rough-around-the-edges bar populated by what I can only describe as corporate lumberjacks and retired Marlboro Men. You know the type. Rugged, handsome, beautifully maintained beards. Like somebody took a lumberjack, cleaned him up, put him in a business suit, and told him to go have a whiskey. It's practically a convention of Dos Equis commercial extras. And somewhere in the back of this establishment, somebody is performing STRAIGHT-UP WITCHCRAFT ON A GRILL. I order my ribeye medium rare. And honey, THEY UNDERSTAND THE ASSIGNMENT. Beautifully cooked. Properly seasoned. That glorious, savory, slightly smoky flavor that makes you wonder what kind of ancient cowboy magic they've worked into that grill. I've eaten steaks at expensive restaurants that couldn't outshine this place. Somebody back there knows what the fuck they're doing. Somebody put their FOOT in that shit. They offer Gorgonzola butter on top, which I know some people adore. Personally, I can take it or leave it. The steak is so damn good it doesn't need any help. But now we need to discuss my biggest problem with the AA. The steak is the star, but the sides are making me question my ability to commit to a relationship. Seriously. The steak fries? BOMB. The onion rings? DELIGHTFUL. The loaded jacket potato? Yes, please. All the fixings, hold the bacon. Mashed potatoes? Absolutely. And every once in a while, they bring out these glorious little deep-fried triangles of macaroni and cheese. Sometimes they're a touch dry, but most of the time? Bomb diggity. I would order ALL OF IT if my wallet and stomach would cooperate. At this point, I would like to formally petition the AA to introduce the "I Can't Make Up My Damn Mind Platter." Give me one tiny loaded jacket potato, three or four steak fries, a handful of onion rings, and a couple of those fried macaroni-and-cheese triangles. I'll pay for it. HAPPILY. Throw in a salad so I can pretend I'm making responsible adult decisions. And let's talk about the atmosphere. There's something wonderfully Cheers-like about the AA. Go often enough, and people know your name. It's a proper neighborhood bar. A place where you can settle in, have a drink, enjoy the company, and eat a steak that has absolutely no business being that spectacular. It's not polished perfection. It's something better. It's character. It's comfort. It's a little bit of Eureka wrapped around a damn fine piece of beef. I can't afford to eat here nearly as often as I'd like, but believe me, if I could, I'd be a regular fixture. And that gentleman who recommended the AA during my hospital orientation all those years ago? Sir, wherever you are, I owe you an apology. You told me where to find one of the best steaks I've ever eaten, and I wasted two years ignoring you. FIVE STARS. For the steaks. For the sides. For the corporate lumberjacks. For the grill that apparently possesses supernatural powers. And for reminding me that sometimes the best food isn't hiding behind an expensive menu or a fancy dining room. Sometimes it's sitting in a neighborhood bar in Eureka, California, waiting for somebody to slap it on your plate. AA, you've got one hell of a stank on that grill. And I mean that as the highest possible compliment.

Our hotel receptionist recommended this place for Steaks saying they were the best steaks in town…read more He did warn us that it was a dive bar atmosphere which is a turn off as smoke comes in all the time from the outdoor patio dinning which apparently allows smoking. Major turn off and it was also pretty loud as the bar goers were getting drunker by the minute and louder as they went along. There were two waitresses that helped us (they took turns if the other was busy because they were also attending the bar as well). Both were very nice, attentive, and friendly and gave us good service throughout our meal. I am conflicted about the steak because the steak was very delicious, tender, perfectly cooked to my liking and had a good flavor to it. However, it was ruined because it was way way too salty!!!! Also the Zoragonla butter was awful for me it was way too overpowering and actually took away from the delicious meat. I regeted spending the extra $4 for that topping. The baked potato I thought was the star of the meal. Wonderfully prepared, soft and tender. Good quality butter and sour cream to go with it made it one of the better potatoes I have had at a steak place. I ate my entire potato which I never do! My husband's Ribeye was a little overcooked and he also complained about the saltiness as well. But agree with me on the baked potato being very good. Overall, the steak is very good but I would ask for it to be unsalted and just season it yourself to your liking because the kitchen way over does it. I would also get it to go unless you enjoy breathing smoke while you eat. I don't so I would not eat in again.

Solid place to hit up while in the Fortuna area. We came in for dinner and had a reservation, and…read morewe were seated promptly. I'd highly recommend a reservation for those busy nights during the busy times of the year. The seating area wasn't the largest, so I'd try to make sure you have a place waiting for you. It's good for the small town it's in. Compared to other steakhouse I've been to, it's not bad for a small town. I'd probably lean toward this being a Fortuna 5, but big city 4. The service of the staff is the real star of the show. From the moment we walked in, they were amazing. The appetizers were pretty forgettable, but appreciated. The ravioli in tomato sauce were alright. Salads were ok. Our bread was just a little burnt/overloaded. The main, which people come here for, was good. I asked mine for rare, and it hit. It was solid. The Mac and cheese side that came with it was just alright. Good time was had and service was spectacular, even with the long delays that evening. I'll give them another shot next time, and I hope they fix the issues they were apologetic about (wait times).

We made a reservation for a Saturday night, and were seated right away. The restaurant is divided…read moreinto two, a general dinning and a bar area so the noise levels are different. Unfortunately, there was a delayed wait time in between our meals being delivered, but staff was nice and friendly. There had been some situation in the kitchen that was causing the delays, and you could tell the waitresses were very apologetic for the issues it had caused. While the food was delayed, when we did the food was good in flavor and portions were very good. I think the garlic mashed potatoes were my favorite out of it all. We'll come again to give them another try, maybe for the happy hour since they looked to have good deals for that as well.

The vibe is exactly what you want from a coastal brewery--casual, beachy, relaxed, and just the right amount of bar energy. I ordered the French dip, which was delicious and piping hot, although it was a little saltier than I prefer. My husband ordered the shrimp tacos, and apparently they were so good that I am now concerned about the stability of my marriage. He literally declared that he was leaving me for the chef. I guess the tacos were that good. The shrimp tacos came with fresh, flavorful salsa that really stood out, and everything arrived hot and quickly. Our server absolutely was friendly, attentive, and FAST--which we very much appreciated. Getting the check however took FOREVER! I think our server went out to lunch. :/ And the beer selection on tap? Lots of choices, and everything was served perfectly. Overall: great food, great beer, quick service, fun atmosphere, and apparently life-changing shrimp tacos. If you're in the area, put Lost Coast Brewery on your list. Just keep an eye on your spouse if they order the shrimp tacos. Apparently that's where things get dangerous.

If you're in Eureka and only have time for one brewery, make it Lost Coast Brewery. From the moment…read morewe walked in, the staff made us feel welcome, the food arrived quickly, and everything we ordered hit the mark. Add in a solid lineup of beers, and it's easy to see why this place has become a local favorite. We sampled several beers across the menu, from crisp lagers to darker, malt-forward brews, and every pour was well-crafted and full of flavor. Whether you're a hop lover or prefer something smooth and easy-drinking, there's a beer here for you. The food was just as impressive. The shrimp tacos were fresh and flavorful with a nice kick, the burger was juicy and piled high with bacon and all the classic fixings, and the French dip was tender, served with a rich au jus that made every bite better. The atmosphere is relaxed and inviting, making it a great stop whether you're grabbing lunch after exploring the Redwoods or winding down after a day on the coast. Great beer, great food, great service--Lost Coast Brewery is an easy recommendation and a must-visit while you're in Eureka.
