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.

This intimate venue, at the top of the stairs and to the left, seats about 900 where some of the greatest musical talents in the world have played and graced this amazing stage and venue for decades now. Beer and wine is usually available for purchase, as are light refreshments. A non-smoking venue. Our most recent concert brought us back to this awesome venue for a show with Ozomatli this past Tuesday evening - This show did not disappoint! The Los Angeles based band has been together for almost two decades now, and it showed in their performance as they smoothly moved from urban latino - to hip hop, to cumbia, salsa and funk. This was an awe inspiring show, for both performers and the audience, as many have been, that I have seen at this venue in recent years. Playing at the Van Duzer theater, artists, musicians and performers all seem to thrive in this special and magical venue. It truly does bring out the best in those who play this stage. The audiences are some of the best in the world, and if you go to a show at this venue, you will find and see that those who do attend are there because they love the music and the artist performing. This in turn translates to the musicians and performers and as such the shows here are always spectacular and amazing in their own right. It does not get any better than this for live music. You can reach the Center Arts ticket office at 707-826-3928 to find out more about this venue and upcoming shows. The 2014-15 season looks to be a great one again, so if you ever find yourself on the north coast, 300 miles in the middle of nowhere and looking for world class music, this is it!
