13 Best Seafood Restaurants in Eureka

“What an amazing experience top notch food and service“

“Fantastic seafood! I LOVE the clam chowder and bread bowl! A must try.⭐️“

“Great view“

“Pacific Seafood, that's what the man said, then he said the fish is so fresh you might have to kill it yourself, so take a filet knife with you to jab into it's gills, and a stiff wire to run up it's spinal cord. Well, I followed the instructions to the tee, and got a salmon that was floppin around like a Kardashian in the back of a limo filled with men. MAN-O-MAN that salmon was Amazing! I took half of a side and smoked it to an internal temp of 135 ...and let me tell you...it was Spectacular! Being fresh is the key to any great fish meal, and Pacific Seafood does it Bigly! ☆☆☆☆☆“

“Good food and good atmosphere. Never disappointed eating here.“

“Best oysters! Normally we're not big fans of Pacific oysters but this place serves the best we've ever had. My wife and I had 2 dozens on half shell and 1/2 dozen broiled (not overcooked) in butter sauce that was very tasty.

There are a variety of sauces and we tried 4 different ones. All good!

Matthew was very friendly and welcoming. He was very helpful with our choices and wine selection. (Also he harvests oysters himself so they are that fresh!)

Too bad we live 4+ hours away otherwise we'll be going there weekly.“

“If you're searching for authentic, mouth-watering Mexican cuisine in Eureka, look no further than Esmeralda's 2.0! This place is a local treasure, delivering flavors that will transport your taste buds straight to the heart of Mexico. ?

From their perfectly seasoned al pastor tacos to the massive, flavor-packed California Burritos, every bite is a celebration of taste. The $1 tacos are a steal and perfect for any occasion—whether you're hosting a party or just grabbing a quick bite. I can’t get enough of the grilled jalapeños and onions; they add the perfect kick!

What I love most is their consistency and speed—perfect for busy nights when you still want quality food. Although I wish they had indoor seating, the take-out experience is top-notch, and their staff always goes the extra mile to make sure your order is just right.

If you’re in Humboldt County, do yourself a favor and try Esmeralda's 2.0. I promise, it will quickly become your go-to spot for all things delicious and Mexican.“

“Outstanding experience. The restaurant sits on the marina and truly has good food at a very reasonable price for the proximity to the water. The waitress was so nice and accommodating. There is a full bar and pets are welcome on the patio facing the boats in their slips. Because the patio faces south-east, the prevailing wind is blocked by the structure making very pleasant in April at least. The pricing on cocktail is cheap in relation to every other seaside experience I have ever had. They were able to come up with gluten free options as we. We'll be back.“

“Just passing thru- excellent choice for lunch! Would stop again!!“

“SO fresh and delicious. I used to eat here more when I worked closer. Today I decided to order for delivery. Thank you for providing me with such an amazing meal during these crazy times! Best crab rangoons I’ve ever had. Spring rolls are so yummy. And the soup is amazing. 💓“

“The service and food were both excellent this evening! I was especially looking forward to a good ribeye steak, unfortunately due to a shipment mixup there were no ribeye. However, they upgraded my dinner to a mouth-watering filet at no charge. Needless to say, I was not disappointed! We also got the rack of lamb and the table-side ceaser salad. Everything was excellent, and I can't wait to come here again!“

“Was going to review the food but then….
I just read this review and… I’m shaking my head, I am a local who’s been eating here for a long time and this honestly made me laugh out loud, not only am I a very dark skinned person but there is many dark skinned staff members at this restaurant so this comment comes off very unbelievable to me.
I have never been discriminated here and find everyone very kind, my waiter there was a young dark skinned girl and also like I said I am very dark skinned, so this is just laughable to me and not a review I would find accurate or helpful at all I also find it so odd that who ever wrote this review felt the need to state the skin color of the accused party maybe they are a bit colorist in there statement ??‍♀️

I believe this is a false and inaccurate review as a customer
xxx“We saw staff accuse a darker-skinned young woman of stealing tips after she took an unwanted fortune cookie off another table. Would rather take my money somewhere that doesn't discriminate.”

On another note I came here to say the food is good haven’t been let down yet just very full when I leave ?“

“The only restaurant in Eureka with enough brass to serve an amuse-bouche (at least I've yet to see that teaser anywhere else in Humboldt). Menu varies with seasons. My tastes tend towards smaller dishes for a variety of flavors. In a half dozen visits over a year+ the food itself was 👌. It would be a 4☆ in the Bay Area. In Eureka it's as good as it gets for upscale.“
