Delicious Homemade Mexican Food--The Perfect Post-Hike Meal!…read more We came here for dinner after a long day of hiking in the redwoods and were so glad we did, as the food was incredibly tasty and satisfying. Oaxaca Grill is a wonderful, family-run restaurant in downtown Eureka, operated by the parents, Carmen and Tony, and their daughter, Yuri. Carmen is the main chef, and you can truly taste the care she puts into making amazing homemade Mexican food. The ambiance is casual and cozy. We were traveling as two families and easily found tables on a Tuesday evening for an early dinner. The main dishes completely hit the spot: * Garlicky Soft Prawn Tacos: My wife ordered these, which were served with sautéed onions, fresh garlic, and the most amazing, flavorful mango salsa on the side. * Spicy Oaxaca Chicken Mole: I got this special dish, which featured a tender chicken breast topped with authentic, spicy Oaxacan mole. This mole is savory, rich, and incredibly flavorful, made from thirty imported Oaxacan ingredients. It came served with yummy rice and beans. * Prawn Soft Tacos: We also ordered these, and they were fantastic, paired with a crisp jicama coleslaw. * Kids' Dishes: Our children ordered from the children's plate options. My son got the chicken enchiladas, which came with fries and beans, and he absolutely loved it. My daughter had the cheese and bean burrito, which she really enjoyed as well. * Desserts: To wrap up the meal, we tried the coconut flan and the crème brûlée. Both were a sweet end to the night, and the crème brûlée in particular was absolutely amazing. Overall, it was a fantastic, comforting dining experience with wonderful hospitality. If you are in downtown Eureka, this family-run spot is highly recommended!

Fresh, Flavorful Seafood Tacos & Burritos in Eureka Raliberto's is a gem in Eureka for fresh, flavorful Mexican food. I had a fish taco and a shrimp burrito, and both were excellent. The fish taco was perfectly cooked with a light, crispy coating and fresh toppings that made every bite pop. The shrimp burrito was loaded with plump, juicy shrimp, seasoned just right, and wrapped up with all the fixings for a delicious, hearty meal. The salsa bar is fantastic, with plenty of fresh, flavorful options to add just the right amount of heat. There's plenty of seating inside, but I noticed most people were ordering to go. Service was quick and friendly, and the prices are great for the quality and portion size. This will definitely be my go-to taco spot whenever I'm in town. read more

This place is a joke. Who makes a burrito and charges extra for rice and beans in the burrito. Salsa bar was dirty. The front counter told me I had to hand them the salsa to have it added to my burrito. Meat that has been sitting all day, took 5 mins to make. This place is little more than a crappy taco truck in a building. Basically you get a tortilla with meat and then pay for everything else kinda like a pizza. This business is most likely a front for illegals or a cartel. I went to the Arcata place on G street. Do yourself a favor and go to Taco Bell, they at least know that a burrito comes with rice and beans. Salsa? Extra charge. Cilantro and onion? Extra charge. Slice of lemon? Extra charge. Was shocked the napkins were free. read more
