Restaurants in Eureka

  1. Restaurant 301

    Eureka's top table, romantic, sophisticated 301 serves a contemporary California menu, using produce from its organic gardens (tours available). Mains are pricey, but the five-course prix-fixe menu (around US$45) is a good deal. This is the place on date night. The encyclopedic wine list is stunning.

    Waterfront Cafe Oyster Bar & Grill

    The Waterfront overlooks the bay from its casual vintage-Victorian dining room and serves steamed clams, fish and chips, oysters and chowder. Top spot for Sunday brunch, with jazz and Ramos fizzes.

  3. O.H.'s Townhouse

    Pick your own meat from the display case at Eureka's best steakhouse, which hasn't changed a whit since 1978 (think wood-veneer paneling). The mushy veggies are awful, but the steaks are delish.

    Hurricane Kate's

    The favorite spot of local bon vivants, Kate's open kitchen pumps out pretty-good, eclectic, tapas-style dishes and roast meats, but the wood-fired pizzas are the standout. Full bar.

    Cafe Marina & Woodley's Bar

    For an atmospheric sunny-day lunch, watch the bobbing sailboat masts in the small-craft harbor from the deck of Cafe Marina, which makes great bloodies and pretty good American food.

  6. Kyoto

    The chef-owner lovingly crafts every plate at this tiny Japanese joint, where the waiter tells bad jokes while serving good sushi and sake-marinated deep-sea cod. Make reservations.

    Roy's

    If Eureka had a Mafia, this is where they'd come to eat their pasta. The five-cheese ravioli and balsamic vinaigrette are delicious, but avoid complicated dishes.

    La Chapala

    For Mexican, family-owned La Chapala is consistently good. The margaritas are cheap - around a liter! Don't get so hammered you forget to order the homemade flan.
