  5. A

    Wildberries Marketplace

    Wildberries Marketplace is Arcata's best grocery, with natural foods, a good deli, bakery and juice bar.

    reviewed

  6. B

    Beachcomber Restaurant

    It's basically a diner with vinyl booths and a salad bar, but it has full ocean views. Expect fried fish with tartare sauce and iceberg lettuce.

  7. C

    Pacific Rim Noodle House

    Super-duper noodles, wholesome rice bowls, potstickers and sushi rolls are mainstays at this hole-in-the-wall take-out favorite, with tables outside.

  8. D

    Tomo Japanese Restaurant

    Everybody loves Tomo. Sushi is the thing and the cuts are good, but the tempura is weak, with flavorless batter and uninteresting veggies. Stick to fish.

  9. E

    Thai House

    Situated behind Safeway, the Thai House serves a variety of pretty good Thai and Vietnamese cuisine, with a few Chinese dishes thrown in for good measure.

    Sharon's by the Sea

    Of all Noyo Harbor's seafood joints, Chapter & Moon is best, then Sharon's by the Sea, a pretty little dockside fish grotto with picnic tables outside.

    Laurel Deli

    Locals pick the Laurel for cheap breakfasts and good sandwiches, while kids love the giant, real locomotive parked in the middle of the cavernous room.

  13. H

    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.

    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.

    reviewed

    Cap'n Flint's

    For fried fish, coleslaw and fries, skip the pricy Wharf restaurant and head next door to Cap'n Flint's where you will get (nearly) the same food for half the price.

    reviewed

  16. K

    Japhy's Soup & Noodles

    The budgeteers first choice serves big salads, tasty coconut curry, cold noodle salads and great homemade soups. Best of all, you can fill up for next to nothing. Score!

    reviewed

  17. L

    Arcarta Plaza Farmers Markets

    These markets are fantastic. For near on 30 years they have been selling fresh Humboldt County produce (including fruit and veggies, meats and shellfish, herbs and honey).

    reviewed

  18. M

    Arcata Co-op

    Arcata Co-op is a member-owned cooperative that carries natural foods (using organic ingredients where possible) and has a good butcher with grass-fed beef, a bakery and a deli.

  19. N

    Good Harvest Cafe

    The hands-down-best place to eat in Crescent City serves big salads, homemade soups, smoothies, sandwiches, omelets, beer and lots for vegetarians. Too bad it's closed at dinner.

    reviewed

  20. Park Place

    Everything is made in-house at this cheerful café, where the consistently good cooking includes lunchtime soups and sandwiches, and pastas, steak, duck and seafood at dinner.

    reviewed

  21. 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.

    Golden Harvest Cafe

    Tops for breakfast with a hangover (it's windowless), Golden Harvest serves classic benedicts, four-egg omelets, and pancakes with real maple syrup. Alas, the coffee sucks.

    reviewed

  24. P

    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.

    reviewed

  25. Q

    Wildflower Cafe & Bakery

    The place for vegetarians, Wildflower serves fab frittatas and pancakes, and big crunchy salads. At dinner there's mushroom stroganoff, veggie lasagna and other substantial dishes.

    reviewed

  26. R

    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.

    reviewed

  27. S

    Daybreak Cafe

    The veggie-heavy breakfasts are tasty, with omelets and burritos, but the blueberry cornmeal pancakes take the prize. At lunch there's turkey in some dishes, but the place is mostly vegetarian.
