I gave the hubs an option of where he wanted to go for Father's Day and he said he'd always wanted to give this place a try. It wasn't too busy which was nice and unexpected. We were seated quickly although we were in the weirdest booth seat I've ever experienced. Our legs dangled like it was a high top table but in a booth. I would never want to be seated here again! After perusing the menu he decided to try the bacon jalapeño jam burger and I tried the Ribeye Philly Cheesesteak burger. We also got the crispy glazed brussel sprouts and a wild child and IPA from the bar. Everything was delicious! Our server was nice and the food came out in a great amount of time. Although we weren't overwhelmed with the menu, I tried everything that stood out to me so unless I go back and eat the same thing, I'm not sure what else I'd try. read more

My server was Prompt & very pleasant today. I ordered the Al Pastor Fish Taco lunch special. It is Grilled Cod with pineapple, cabbage, green onions, cilantro, crema & guacamole which sounds so delicious. There are two reasons why I gave a lower star review today. I was really looking forward to these tacos but unfortunately the fish was mushy with very little flavor. As I ordered my server asked if I wanted the signature, curly or sweet potato fries. What she neglected to inform me was that there was an add on fee for the sweet potato fries, so my $13 lunch special turned into a $16 lunch. I don't like surprises! Although the service was very good, I would like to have made an informed choice on the fries. Mostly they have yummy food and good service. They have Happy Hour 3-6pm and 9pm to close daily. I have to come back soon for that because I'm really curious, the happy hour menu looks a treat. read more

Eureka is already a great spot for drinks, but their new whiskey club really takes things up a notch. It's a fun concept- you get access to a rotating monthly selection of whiskeys, which makes it easy to try something new without committing to a full pour or bottle. I really enjoyed sampling one of the month's featured selections, and having it smoked, added a rich smoky depth that made it a real stand out. read more

I came here for an end-of-the-year celebration after finally finishing grad school. The place was absolutely packed, and we had to wait about 40 minutes just to get a table. Honestly, I'm usually not one to wait that long for a meal, but the crowd might just be a testament to how popular this spot really is. The Build: For my celebratory meal, I ordered the Fresno Fig Burger. This one comes loaded with fig marmalade, melted goat cheese, bacon, tomato, red onion, arugula, and a spicy porter mustard. I paired it with a side of sweet potato fries. The Flavor Profile: The wait became a distant memory once I bit into the burger. The combination of the sweet fig marmalade and the rich, melted goat cheese was absolutely amazing, they complemented each other perfectly. It's a unique flavor profile that totally hits the spot. The Verdict: The single downside to this place is the crowd and the long wait time. However, the food itself completely delivers. If you have the patience for the line, or can catch them at an off-peak hour, the Fresno Fig burger is well worth trying! read more

Quick review as it was my first time at Eureka and probably 6 or 7 years and today offered exceptional food for a burger spot but also offered top-tier service at Eureka! on Stockdale Highway! I'm pretty picky anyway and very picky about the type of ground beef I will eat so in this case I was of course hesitant on going but my daughter offered to pay so well you know, a free meal it's a free meal in most cases anyway , The burger I had at this place was pretty good not necessarily phenomenal but you can tell they were made with noticeably fresh, high-quality ingredients, and the fries are perfectly crisp and flavorful. Overall for free meal( my daughter paid for it) it was pretty dang good. I like the atmosphere in this place looks pretty chill as a bar and eatery and the outside patio is a really good looking area to eat and people watch. To top it off, Jerry provided outstanding customer service, taking over apparently for waitress who was too busy ignoring us in the first 2 minutes we were in there before he stepped up in the mostly empty section we were in, anyway back to Jerry--he was incredibly attentive, welcoming, and made the entire dining experience almost absolutely seamless. read more

Monday night dinner + happy hour was amazing! Service was great, and the weather was nice enough to sit at the outdoor patio. I ordered the Cobb salad and strawberry lychee martini -- and both were delicious. The portion was also well worth it. Would come back again to try their sandwiches and burgers! read more

We've been into Eureka! a few times because we usually end up hungry at the shopping center. The menu is very well balanced for many different tastes so I can always find something new to try with my dietary restrictions lol I'm sensitive and menu fear is real! The portions are good sized and I always leave full and satisfied. We have sat at the bar and the patio - both are really good options and the staff is all super nice and welcoming. We're not regulars, but they make us feel like we are and that will keep us coming back. I also recommend the spa day margarita because OMG it's so good and it's on the Hoppy Hour menu! read more

What a fun experience- I'm on town from out of state and of course your weather is always top conversation. We still accepted the dining in the patios it was wonderful with the breeze coming through and we were visited by my first experience of a road runner- I only have memories of the cartoon. Carmen was our server and she went over and beyond including offering us to change tables when another friend should up. I had just been released from the hospital ( emergency) if 4 days and she was able to get me a deconstructed poke bowl at my request. My daughter had the nachos which were delicious also. Definitely would recommend for fresh food and professional service. Great ambience!! read more

My fiance and I don't frequent this restaurant often but I think that's going to change! We had a great Monday night dinner here with some family! The fried Mac and cheese balls are still a crowd favorite but we've discovered the fried pickles are a top contender as well! They are very crispy and not overly breaded. Our waitress was very attentive despite the restaurant being extremely crowded. We got a wild child pitcher and it was perfect for 3 to share throughout the evening. The cocktail was very fresh and bright not overly sweet. I love how the salted rim brings a kick to each sip! My favorite meal here is the American burger with no bun they can serve any burger this was over a bed of arugula or romaine. You really can't go wrong with any of their sides but right now I'm really liking the sweet potato fries! Next time I'm looking forward to trying something from the dessert menu! read more

We went on a Friday night for date night and both had a burger, appetizers, a beer, and upgraded to a salad as our side. All that to say our bill was about $80 even with happy hour deals on the apps, beer, and 1 burger. So more than we were expecting. Service was good and attentive, atmosphere is always fun, slightly sporty, and relaxing with low lighting. The Fresno fig burger was sweet and savory like I remember and was really big and filling, I couldn't finish all of it. Overall We had a good time, just a little more pricey then we anticipated read more

Very solid choice while on the road downstate. The Fresno fig burger was a highlight -- if you love goat cheese, get it!!! Perfect balance with the salty, crispy bacon. Their sweet potato fries are also well-seasoned and addictive. Great service and lots of options for everyone in our family. read more

Our first time at an Eureka! and won't be our last. This place was fantastic! We've been driving through Bakersfield from 58 to 99 north for literally decades. We've tried everything we could see from the freeway over that time and never found anything good. We had given up on eating in Bakersfield, other than when Moo Creamery is open. A Yelp search while driving from Paso yielded this option so we decided to try it. We finally found good options and great place to eat. We'll probably try some of the other options in and around this center but it will be tough to not go back to Eureka! every time. The burgers were very, very good and the beer and alcohol selection were top notch. Too bad I had to drive. Our server was the best we've had in years, helpful, casual, fun. I wish I had taken the time to write this sooner after we went so I'd have more details. In short, everything was great, you can't go wrong unless you don't go. read more

Service very good. Seated right away in spite of a busy outside patio. Good environment for families and dates. A fun environment and definitely chatty. Nice bar, full of classic and fun drinks. The tater tots were a blast from my past. A generous amount. The fried pickles were devine with the aioli dip. I liked this first time experience! read more

Stopped in for lunch while doing errands- we were seated quickly and the host was friendly. Our server greeted us almost immediately and was very up beat. She made some recommendations for drinks, and we place our order. The drinks arrived after just a few moments- we had a beer and the peach sangria. Beer was light and refreshing and the sangria was interesting- my only negative was there was a weird smell to the sangria (I don't know if it was the flowers/mint in the drink, or the peach? I don't know but something felt off). We ordered the Eureka burger, added avocado, with fries and a Cesar salad. Salad was fresh and the croutons were perfectly crunch. The burger was great- cooked medium, juicy, and all the ingredients were spot on. All around great experience- I'll just pass on the sangria next time. read more

Been here before but my first time providing a review. My visit was on 06/23/25, at approximately 1200 hours. I was immediately seated in the bar area. Drink order was taken fairly quickly. I ordered the Lavender Iced Tea, in a disposable cup. The tea was a nice lavender flavor, however, the tea was more like a very tart lavender lemonade. I was not expecting a lemon flavor as the menu description did not note lemon juice as an ingredient. I asked for a bit of simple syrup to sweeten it a bit. I ordered the Fresno Fig, cooked medium, as my main entree. The burger consisted of fig marmalade / melted goat cheese / bacon / tomato / red onion / arugula / spicy porter mustard. Both buns had some fig marmalade, the goat cheese was slightly tangy and "goaty", which I loved. The arugula was fresh and strip of bacon was crisp. The meat patty was generous. All flavors complimented each other, to make a great tasting burger another win. Fries were good, but nothing outstanding; average. Food was at the right temperature and prompt. Restaurant was clean, no dirty tables or debris on the floor. I will definitely recommend the Fresno Fig and would reorder in the future. read more

We got a gift card for Eureka from our family so we went to eat there today. We were greeted and seated immediately by a friendly employee. My husband ordered an American burger and a lettuce wrapped double smash burger with fries and Brussels sprouts and we didn't have to wait long. The Brussels sprouts are so so good I would go there just to eat them alone. Both burgers were hot and delicious and so were the fries. The highlight of the meal was our server Rudy. He was friendly and checked back on us often. We had great service and great burgers. Thanks Eureka and Rudy especially for the great service. read more

I went to Eureka for lunch and had such an amazing burger and truffle cheese fries!!! While I was there I snapped a picture and showed me wife and we agreeded that its a must go for dinner! So we did just that, same day and 2 Eureka burgers/Truffle cheese fries in a since day, thats how much i enjoyed it here. I sat inside for lunch and outside for dinner. Fow dinner I started with the Nachos and WildChild cocktal! Really enjoyed the freshness of the cocktail with mint sprig garnish prefect cool down for 100+ degree evening. Nachos were great but I would recommend them without steak, they already pretty loaded up and steak didnt add too much more flavor. 10/10 will go back for happy hour here! Cocktails burger and laid back atmostphere. I want onclose off my saying that service was fast both times and even when waiters traded off both were on it and ensuring we had everything we needed. read more

This place was great! It was my first time here, and I had a fantastic experience with friends and family. I ordered the double smash burger with truffle cheese fries and an iced tea, all of which were packed with flavor and cooked just right. My wife and kid went with the nachos and mac n' cheese, and they really enjoyed their meals too. We finished off with a cheesecake, which honestly wasn't my favorite, it was priced higher than expected and didn't quite deliver on flavor or texture. That said, the overall food was excellent, and our server was outstanding, attentive, friendly, and always checking in to make sure we were comfortable and taken care of. We left feeling welcomed and will definitely be back. read more

Food was good.I wish they had more choices though it looked like a fun place to eat and there were a lot of people there.It was very popular. Our waitress Alexis was really cool and the best ever. She took the time to explain to us different items on the menu and told us what her favorites were. We ended up ordering off of the happy hours menu. My grandson got the eureka burger, and I ordered the nachos and added steak. The drinks were good, but you only had your choice of a few drinks on the happy hours menu. I hear their smash burger is good, I'd like to go back and try that one. It's a very popular friday night dinner spot for families and couples. They have patio dining for those that have their pets with them. read more

Food is great, service is decent. Though, the music volume is always incredibly loud. Not a place to you can carry a conversation at.

Great service from Aniyah - she was friendly, attentive and was able to make a great experience for our meal. The menu could be made vegetarian and vegan easily. Note that it is bright outside on the patio, so bring sunglasses! read more

I tried Eureka using DoorDash a second time and had a positive experience this time. I had the Steak Frites because my partner and her son gave the dish high marks last time. The dish was very good. The steak was cooked medium per my request. The chimichurri sauce was also very good. I ordered the mushrooms which came on top of the steak. The mushrooms were very small and very thin, and I didn't get much of them. So, the next time, no mushrooms for me. We also had the chicken lettuce wraps which was delicious. It is chicken, cashews, carrots, Korean gochujang sauce, and green onions in lettuce. I could have this as a main meal! This time Eureka was a positive experience. read more

Bad food My son ordered the fish and chips and everything was extremely over fried. Most of the fries weren't potato. They were just overly fried batter. Certainly not worth $21. I showed it to the waitress and she seemed to agree. But all she offered us was another side of fries. I think we're done with fried items at Eureka. Won't be coming back. read more

I have been a big fan of this location since 2013/2014. Great consistent service, great food, what more can you ask for. Recently stopped by with my wife for dinner on a Friday night and this place was PACKED. We got our names on the waiting listed and waited about 25 min for a table to open. Honestly our food was worth the wait. This time, I went with the Barbecue Bacon Burger and added lettuce to the burger. So happy that I did because it elevated the burger and gave it a fresh element but the burger was seasoned and cooked to perfection! Barbecue sauce is made out of beer and it is amazing. My meal was a 10/10! Overall, I can't recommend this place enough. Make sure to check them out if your in the area or craving a burger. Very worth it. Thanks Eureka Burger, till next time! read more

Had a wonderful impromptu dinner. Food was very good and our server Mark, was outstanding. He really made a positive contribution to our dinner and represented Euraka very well.

Eureka you're messing with my emotions. Drinks are still on point but your salad game has failed me three times in a row. First it was eliminating the ahi salad. Shameful! Second, I got a Cobb salad and the lettuce was wilted, brown and soggy. Hard pass. Third was last night. I got the Cobb salad expecting redemption but found a mouth full of grit. Was it the shell of the hard boiled egg? Perhaps. But then again, Was it dirt from unwashed lettuce? Because I found 2 bugs squashed onto leaves of lettuce. Appetite gone. The icing on the cake? You changed your fried pickles from dill to butter. Worst decision ever. Why eureka? Why!? read more
