My husband and I were on a road trip and staying in Eureka for the night and decided to eat here for dinner, which also happened to fall on Father's Day. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place was pretty busy at 8pm and we sat outside since we had our pup with us.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I ordered 3 oysters as an app. I had just read that Humboldt Bay provided a large percentage of the oysters consumed in CA and NV so figured I should order some since we're so close to the source! I was surprised when I slurped it down and it was warm but they were delicious and the sauce on top was very flavorful. (That was my fault for not reading the description well enough; I'm just accustomed to eating oysters chilled) For entree's, I went with the Polenta Veghie lasagna and my husband ordered the Italian Mac n cheese. Both dishes were very good and very filling. I loved the crust of the polenta and the eggplant and cheese filling was delicious. The staff was very friendly and helpful and [[HIGHLIGHT]]I was impressed with the coziness and warmth of the interior.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Great spot for dinner, I'm glad I chose this restaurant! read more

I was visiting Eureka and decided to check this place out. So glad I was able to try this restaurant and the delicious food they serve. My wife and I ordered the Italian Mac and cheese, beef bolognese, seafood soup (almost like a cioppino) of the day , and mushroom cobbler. All dishes were amazing and so flavorful. It was hard to pick a favorite but the beef bolognese and soup stood out to me. Our servers were so delightful and incredibly friendly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambience is great too; lively and homey.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] If I am back in town this is the first place I am coming back to. I wish I had this exact restaurant in my area! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]This lace is so lovely! Quaint and cozy[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Food was delicious. Started with the calamari tender and succulent with a garlic forward sauce Ordered a glass of on Nebbiolo fantastic!! Shared a Caesar salad and the meatballs.. yum! Service was attentive and friendly It was awesome to find this lace to share with my special friend read more

We arrived at 5pm and were seated in what they termed their "alternate" dining room, a separate space away from the main dining room. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was quiet and cozy and decorated nicely.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our server was excellent. She coursed out our meal perfectly. Loved the roasted fava beans! The stroganoff was outstanding with a terrific variety of mushrooms and Kobe beef. Hubby loved his flap cut steak and au gratin potatoes. We will def return. read more

We dined there last month and had an absolutely delicious dinner! Our server Gabby was kind did not rush us and gave wonderful recommendations. The mushroom cobbler is delicious and so unique. The polenta lasagna is also unlike anything we've had at any other restaurant. The cheesecake and tiramisu desserts were fabulous as well. We hope to dine in there again the next time we are in town! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is cozy and small inside, though it's not located in the best area of Eureka.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The highlight of our meal was definitely the grilled oysters -- they were excellent. Unfortunately, the rest of the food didn't stand out, and the service was lacking despite there seeming to be plenty of staff working. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Our biggest concern was the bathroom setup. To get to the restroom, guests have to walk directly through the kitchen area, and people waiting were also standing in the kitchen. It didn't feel very sanitary or well organized.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Overall, we were disappointed and wouldn't return. read more

I had a lovely and filling dinner here! The mushroom cobbler was delicious. Reminded me of a cream of mushroom soup topped with crispy bread crumbs. The stuffed portobello mushroom was hearty and I loved the fried egg addition on top. The complimentary house made bread was incredible. I tried stopping myself from getting too full of it but the texture was perfectly bouncy and soft, I devoured it. I had a bite of my friends Italian sausage pizza, which I thought was too salty for my taste. Love that they highlight and feature so many mushrooms. Would recommend checking this place out for any fellow mushroom lovers out there! read more

Brick & Fire Bistro is a small restaurant found in the heart of Eureka, CA. This little restaurant is a powerhouse when it comes to making hearty and Smokey foods while providing excellent service. I recommend reserving as there are very limited seats and they are busy. Every staff member was very nice and they were always checking in on my table. We started with a Brie dish that had fire melted Brie cheese wedges, toasted slices of bread, and asparagus. The brie was smooth and Smokey as I combined it with the toasted bread. I'm not much of a fan of asparagus, but I found myself going back for more. Don't forget to eat the rind of the Brie as well ;). For my drink I had the homemade ginger ale and it was very refreshing. They offer free homemade bread along with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. I'm a huge fan of olive oil and unfortunately most places don't have great olive oil, but this one hit the spot. They refilled our bread as well at our request. The bread was nice and soft while packed with a garlic flavor that wasn't overpowering. For my main dish, l ordered a medium rare Kobe Fettina Steak. The steak was cooked perfectly. It was so tender and juicy and paired very nicely with the sauce as it fell apart in my mouth. The salad was a nice little palate cleanser and fresh. The au gratin was a great way to wrap up the dish as the toasted layer of cheese brought the potatoes together with packed flavor. Overall, I have no complaints and I was extremely happy with my experience. Everything tasted fresh and homemade. My partner had the same reaction with her dish as well. We will definitely plan to come back sometime in the future. read more

Great service great food! The mushroom cobbler and Cesar salad are amazing! Be sure to make a reservation it gets busy.

First of all, I just wanna start with that mushroom cobbler was a star of the night at our table of nine. We are still talking about it the day after. The apple tart tartin was like an apple pie with an extra dash of everything. It brought me back to Christmas in the 90s with my family. The fresh whipped cream was light and airy. Staff was exceptional. I don't think a single detail was missed. They had an alternate menu for kids and people looking for something simple. It looks like a cute little café on Italy. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Clean bathroom.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Definitely book a reservation or you're gonna be waiting a few hours. My dinner party was arguing if it was the best restaurant in Humboldt. I will definitely be back and be ordering takeout soon. read more

We came here based on the yelp rating and while it's not 4.5 stars, it's a solid 3.9 or so. The portions are quite generous. We enjoyed the Caesar salad (interesting with the poached egg on top!), the cauliflower, and the soppressatta pizza. The cauliflower was a little overdone but tasty. The pizza was pretty good - crust could have been a tad better but definitely pretty good. The bread they serve is homemade and was good. Oh, we also tried the truffles, which were yummy and very generously sized. We had leftovers! The service was very nice. Alison was our server and she was great! The ambiance is lovely- welcoming, warm, and very pretty. read more

Quality/Quantity - Complimentary Bread - This was so good. Baked in house...? Anyways, I try to NOT eat too much bread to NOT spoil my meal, but I did ask for seconds... Polenta Lasagna - My wife said it was good. Not sure if I even got a bite to try? Local Albacore Tuna and Prawn Risotto - I am NOT usually a risotto person, but this sounded good. And it did not fail. The shrimp took a little effort to eat, but all the flavors and textures were spot on. And of course, I paired my dish with a sauvignon blanc. This is probably one of the nicer/fine dining restaurants in Eureka. Atmosphere - Very small location. Love their brick oven. Also appreciated the fire decor outside, see pictures. Indoor and 2 tables outdoor seating. Indoor table or bar seating. Open 6 days a week from 5pm to 8:30pm ish, closed Tuesdays. See picture. Due to the age of the building, the bathroom is past the kitchen. Felt like I was in SF... The bathroom was clean and organized. Oh, and they had extremely HOT water, see picture of the warning. Thank you. Street parking, not an issue. Service - Good. I did not make reservations (I recommend that you make reservations as this is a very small and popular business!), but we only had to wait approximately 10 minutes for a table. The wait staff was good, and the kitchen team was very accommodating. Price - $66 + tip. Owner Comments - Congrats on your success since 2010. If we come back to Eureka, we will be regular customers. But next time, we will make reservations. read more

We arrived during opening (as usual) on the 4th of July. I made sure we had reservations coming in Eureka. This was during the heatwave that NorCal was experiencing, so the open flames of the brick oven didn't ease our discomfort from the heat. But, this kiln did cook our food to perfection, so we beared the warmth emanating from it. The place was intimate. Probably not a restaurant for a large group. The Venetian furnishing & photos and the menu were certainly meant for dates and not a family with small kids dinner. We started our supper with glasses of vino. My wife had the moscato while I sipped through my red blend. The apps became my meal as I was pretty sure my wife won't be able to finish her's. The Roasted Local Oysters ($20 for 6) and Wagyu Carpaccio were really good. The baked mollusks were a delight as I could still taste the freshness of these Humboldt kumamotos as well as savor the garnishment. My wife picked her Tarragon Pecan Brie & Pesto Pizza and our son, opted for the B&F Italian Mac n Cheese. The main courses were excellent as well. The teen didn't want to share his plate but we snucked in a bite or two. We shared the Peach Shortcake Crisp for dessert. The filling and crumble were the highlights of this sweet treat. The place was literally packed 15 minutes from the 5pm opening and the crew, though busy with the other tables, were still attentive to us. Our server was even able to accommodate a photo request. Do try Brick & Fire (a Bistro) when in the Humboldt County for a great Mediterranean cuisine. read more

Food was great. Service was great. We had the lamb shank and the steak. The wine pairings were perfect. Definitely the gem of the town!

My partner and I came here on a Sunday evening for date night. We have heard great things about Brick and Fire so we were excited to try! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great wine pairing recommendations, great music, cozy dark environment.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is small so a reservation would be best.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] For an appetizer we got the Margherita pizza which was so yummy. For entrees, I got the gnocchi dish and my partner got the steak. Perfect medium rare! Lastly, for dessert I had a strawberry black paper sorbet with crumbly lemon cookies. My partner had a dark chocolate crème brûlée. Of course it was delicious. Our server was also amazing, knowledgeable, and attentive, though we didn't catch his name. Will be recommending to everyone and be back again! read more

Cool ambiance, very friendly wait staff, and the food was great! The starters were amazing. We got the baked brie and mushroom cobbler. Both were amazing. I'm not even a big fan of brie cheese but this was perfect. The mushroom cobbler was a savory little dish that was good to the last bite. After this a grilled ceasar salad arrived to the table and devoured. The entrees came next and both were very tasty. The flank steak has great flavor and came with potatoes au gratin. The potatoes had a nice cheese layer baked on top. The other entree was the mac and cheese. It was rich and garlicky. We were very satisfied with our visit. read more

Wonderful in every way! Our server was very professional & friendly, someone you'd expect in a fine dining experience. The indoor space is small but comfortable and not too loud. We shared two appetizers and a pizza, taking half the pizza home. My taste buds were satisfied and I didn't over eat. Perfect! Reservations recommended. read more

I wish I could give this place more than 5 stars. the food was amazing! the service was amazing! [[HIGHLIGHT]]the restaurant itself is very cozy with a brick oven fire.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Definitely make a reservation. Free bread with red wine vinegar and olive oil. Large wine selection. My party ordered the italian mac n cheese, the smoked and braised pork belly, and the polenta lasagna. I had the pleasure of trying each dish and each one was spectacular. My boyfriend said it's the best meal he's ever had in Humboldt. Please give this place a try!! read more

Excellent local bistro. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Wonderful food, quaint ambience, and friendly staff.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Couldn't recommend this restaurant more, it is definitely the best in town. read more

The mushroom tart appetizer was small, but yummy. We tried the spicy sausage pizza, which was good. The best was the house-made bread, which was taken up on their bread offer and used the tableside balsamic and olive oil. Make a reservation if you can; they were turning people away on a Saturday evening. Small, intimate, but very noisy. You need to walk through the kitchen to get to the one bathroom in the back. read more

Cannot believe we had not found this restaurant previously. Absolutely amazing food and over the top gluten free options! [[HIGHLIGHT]]We were blown away by the service as well as the beautiful and comfortable atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We will 100% be back! read more

Thanks to Yelp, I found Brick & Fire Bistro tucked into a neighborhood. Unforgettable experience with elote soup and polenta lasagna at the restaurant with great service. I took the chocolate cheesecake to go and it didn't disappoint. I'm looking forward to next visit to north coast. Definitely recommend reservations. I got lucky as a single walk-in on a busy Wednesday night. read more

We tried to come to this restaurant on a Tuesday night and it was fully booked so we made a reservation for Thursday night. We order two salads and two pizzas. We wanted the beet salad but they were out of it for the evening so they suggested the peach salad instead and I wasn't disappointed! The salad had fresh, thinly sliced peaches and strawberries, pitted olives and an aioli dressing that complimented the flavors really nicely. The ceasar salad was okay, nothing spectacular but the pizzas were both yummy, we ordered the house made Italian sausage pizza and a Tuscan sopresetta & honey pizza with the brick oven roasted veggies. Delicious... read more

Need to look at their website for their menu changes daily. Everything we ordered was delicious it kept getting better the apple tart was amazing read more

Unexpected delight in Eureka. We are passing through the area and found this on Yelp. Had the oysters (best ever), pear fig salad (tasty with plenty for two to share) and the polenta lasagna (delicious). Everything was beautifully presented. Nice wine selection. Finished off with tiramisu which also hit the mark. Get there right when they open (5 pm) or probably best to make a reservation--the place was hopping on a Wednesday early evening. Two thumbs up. read more

This is a five star every day of the week. If I lived here, I am afraid I would be a regular. We ordered the steelhead trout and the Mac and cheese. Both entrees were exceptional! The wine was excellent and the desserts were great. We had the crème brûlée and the dark chocolate truffles. So good!! The restaurant is a nice size with a great ambiance. Staff is helpful and courteous which really makes you feel like they are glad you came in. From the tablecloths on the tables to the fresh menu, this is a place to visit. read more

We came here for the first time and we were pleasantly surprised. It's a small place, but it wasn't jam packed full of tables. I had the chicken. It was really good. The sauce under it made the dish.

This is our go-to spot for a romantic date night. It's an intimate space, so you need to call in a reservation - but for an early dinner in the middle of the week, we've had success calling in the night of. The food is delicious and beautiful, the wine menu is perfect, the lighting is low and the service & ambiance make you feel like you're somewhere special - because you are! :) read more

Great restaurant, fish and steak were amazing! By far best restaurant i've been to in Eureka. The service was also very nice and welcoming!

From the mushroom tour to the stroganoff everything was perfect. Can't wait to go back and try their brick fired pizza and the other mushroom appetizer. Service was wonderful and very attentive. read more

OMG. If I lived here. I would be a regular. They have a main seating area that's more lively and fancier. Then they have a wine bar that's next door (completely separate but still the same establishment). I went on a Friday night as one. I thought I could just sit at the bar in the main building but that was reserved. Apparently this is a popular place to celebrate or just have a nice date night. They were able to accommodate me at the side bar/restaurant. I got there as soon as they opened but I bet even the side bar gets busy. I had the roasted kumamotos and a delicious glass of chenin blanc to begin. I ordered three oysters because I planned on ordering more food. OMG, SOOOOO GOOD. I ended up ordering more, I literally had to. It's wine or beer here, but the voices are top notch. Not pretentious, just well priced quality. As an appetizer, I order the stuffed calamari. This is not traditional calamari in how Americans think of calamari. They were whole baby squid, stuffed and grilled. The stuffing is shrimp and leeks and breadcrumbs. Though it was delicious, the stuffing was ground to a pulp and it would have been nice to have the texture of just a few chopped shrimp. The sauce they were on, was super yummy (I really don't know what it was). Would definitely order again. I took home the polenta lasagna which was amazing and a chocolate cheesecake. Everything including my service from Camas out 12 out of 10. I will visit every time I'm in Eureka. Absolutely amazing!!!! read more

This place is small but cozy. We ordered a pizza for our daughters, and they loved it. My husband enjoyed the trout and I had The Mac and cheese. The portions are quite generous. The only drawback is that you need to cross the kitchen to go to the bathroom. It was a small inconvenience read more

We have been twice. Great food, fantastic service. We love the Brie, pizza, steelhead, steak, and main sides. I wish they had more to drink on the adult side. If you can't have beer or wine like me, the only drink is kombucha- which is exotic but if you're not in the mood then it's root beer. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ask them about the brick oven.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We will be back. read more
