    The hamburgers were delicious. The large serving of garlic fries was smaller than what were accustomed to, however they were tasty. Service was walkup and order, sit down, and they find you. We were expecting a truck stop, but it was an eclectic crowd of families, students, and retirees. The desserts looked very impressive, but we passed on them (this time).

    I have been a fan of Toni's for years but just recently discovered their salads are utterly fantastic too!

    This 24 hour diner is a cozy, warm and welcoming diner. The diner has some of the nicest, most friendly waitresses we've ever met. The restaurant has long list of hamburgers, salads, soups, sandwiches and fried baskets. We absolutely loved their chicken sandwich, grilled ham n cheese and foot long chili dog. The diner also has a huge selection of hand made desserts. This was a great local diner with awesome food, friendly service and reasonable prices.

    Not the chicken strips. Bland and undercooked.

    Hey. I'd you in the area, this all you got. Not the best service or food. Order something safe. The chicken strips are bland and undercooked. Not edible. The chili dog has a long hair in it. The tater tots were good. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Big free parking lot.

    Fish basket and veggie soup

    Stopped in here based on some decent reviews but don't get it - overpriced for mediocre food My son was not impressed with his $5.99 corn dog that was likely just reheated. I ordered veggie soup bowl for $5.99 and didn't even come with saltines let alone a roll from what appeared to be a bakery. The fish basket my husband did order was of decent value at ~$16

    We ordered food to-go and brought it back to my son's dorm. My son did suggest this spot since he and my husband like milk shakes. Place is right off the 101, has plenty of parking and they get a lot of locals picking up orders they called-in in advance. We ordered a vanilla and a chocolate shake, a baked chicken sandwich, a club sandwich, 2 bowls of vegetable soup, and a blue cheese burger. Oh and a chocolate cake. The shakes were really good. They are known for their deserts, shakes and burgers. I loved my baked chicken sandwich and my vegetable soup. Everyone liked their food actually. My son lives on campus at CSUH so he knows what he likes. We didn't eat inside. They ran out of vegetable soup around 7:30-8pm so we only got one bowl of it. But it was yummy. If I'm in the area again, I'll go back. And they really are open 25hrs. They had a lot of desserts ready to go. My son says all their deserts are fantastic. I loved the chocolate cake.

    If you are ever hungry for deep fried tender and juicy Chicken Fried Steak smothered in bacon fat homemade gravy and plentiful hash brown to clog up the remaining coronary arteries, then avoid the morning crowd and join me at the wee hours of midnight for a large breakfast menu item with toasted wheat bread and strawberry jam to go with it. You are welcome to order anything off the menu up front counter and stoic and tired waitress will take your order and get paid before the friendly cook will come out with your hot dish calling out your name with thick Puerto Vallarta accented English with enthusiasm not seen in Arcata or anywhere else in this Zombie infested state. The ambience is typical American diner with few customers eating huge portions with gusto and quiet atmosphere and infinite refill of old thick black coffee keeps getting refilled until your caffeine meter hits 95 mph. The hot sauce offered on the table is limited to two types of Tabasco. For $16 it's a dang good bargain for richly deserving all American cholesterol breakfast that no other Franchises can ever come close.

    There was a lot of food. It's too bad. The fish was so greasy.

    Overall, a pretty good meal with a couple of hiccups. This place came highly recommended from my brother, so I decided to come in for lunch. It was Sunday at lunchtime, so they were pretty busy. I decided to go for the fish and shrimp basket with tots instead of fries, and a small German chocolate milkshake. The milkshake was amazing! Thick, rich, you could easily taste both the chocolate and the caramel. The only problem was, they brought the shake to my table right away. By the time my food got there 30 minutes later because they were so busy, the shake was gone. Next time I will just ask them to bring the shake with my meal. The fish and tots came first, and then I had to ask where my shrimp was. he apologized, and brought it separately. There was a lot of food! The shrimp and the tots were very good. The fish, was not so successful. Once I asked, he brought it very quickly. The fish itself was delicious. The only problem was, it was over breaded, and the breading was very greasy. I could literally see the oil just coming off the fish. Next time, I will just not order the fish. The portion was huge, and I had plenty of the shrimp and tots to bring home with me for another meal. Overall, a good meal. The price was a little bit on the higher end, but very reasonable for what I got. I will come back and try more things. Thank you. UPDATE: I came back a day or two later. This time, off the 24 hour breakfast menu, I decided to try the chicken fried steak. This time, it was a total home run! The steak was tender, delicious, and not over breaded or greasy at all. The sausage gravy was creamy and rich, the tots were great again, and this time I had the cherry chocolate chip shake. Once again, the shake was amazing. This place is known for their shakes. The person at the cash register told me that normally they bring the shake out right away, unless you ask for it to be brought with your meal, which I did. I will remember that from now on. Again, I had enough of my meal to bring home for a second meal. I will be back again. Thank you.

    During our visit to Arcata, we stopped by this location twice to re-order the salmon eggs benedict…read morecroissant.. It was SO delicious. It's a little pricy, but honestly, if you're here, you NEED to try it. I was very surprised to enjoy their iced matcha too! It tasted like authentic matcha and not too watery or milky. The hot mocha was so delicious, too! The service was fairly quick and kind when helping us find something to order. This place is honestly a cute breakfast spot located in a perfect area for a nice walk afterward! 10/10 recommend

    We loved Cafe Brio as our morning stop before heading up to the redwoods for hiking. Their coffee…read morewas better than other spots we had gone to mornings prior, and we enjoyed the brio classic with bacon on croissant & the summer omelette. We opted to sit outside and were entertained by some of the other customer's dogs on the patio and we got to enjoy the cool weather. This is a casual place where you can go up to order your food at the cashier, grab a number, and they'll call your name to grab your food and coffee. The cafe is in a great location of the Arcata plaza square, so we were able to walk by some of the nearby shops. This is a great location if you're looking for some casual breakfast food in the area. They also had an amazing display of pastries and desserts that I wish we would've gotten to try.
