This place is the best food I have had here in Humboldt, AND , the best part about this place, is…read morethat it is, as far as I know, the ONLY 24hr business in the whole county and every time I have been the staff is super nice and the food is like I said the best around. Super extensive menu and they also have cakes and baked goods as well which all look very enticing and delicious but I have not partaken. This menu is straight up huge though, like, anything you can think of it's probably up there. Ambiance is - well 1) i'm from a real city, so rating anything in humboldt on it's "ambiance" is a funny ask, but this place makes me feel like it's not illegal to be awake after midnight! So i'll take it. It's not like "cheap-cheap" but the food is good and you get what you pay for. Like, i'm poor, and I still wouldn't and don't complain about the prices cuz you get a lot of food, and it's all GOOD food, hella good, and they doing a real service to this otherwise completely dead after 6,7,8,9,pm ahh county/city/area by being open ALL THE TIME.

I decided to do a to go order, as the fast EV charging station was about a mile up the road. Too far to eat at the restaurant while waiting for my vehicle to charge. The restaurant was bright and clean, and everybody was friendly. It was a Saturday, so they were not doing the lunch specials. I decided to do the two item combo, a Carnitas tamale, and a chile relleno. It also came with rice and refried beans. They provided me with a bowl of chips and salsa while I waited for my food. The chips and salsa were very good. The chips were crisp and not greasy at all, and the salsa had just a little bit of a spice to it. Just enough that I knew it was there. The food came. There was a lot of food. So much, there were two to go containers. One had my main course, and then the other was the rice and beans. The food was just the right temperature The main course was a good size portion, and they were extremely generous with the rice and beans. The main course was very good. The breading on the. Chile relleno was delicious, it was not soggy, and the chile had a good flavor without being too spicy. The cheese was delicious, and it was just the right amount. On the tamale, they were very generous with the Carnitas, and they were delicious. They had a good flavor, and they had a good crisp to them. Just the way I like my Carnitas. I would say that the masa on the tamale was a tiny bit dry , and I wish there would've been more sauce on the chile relleno. There was some sauce, But it was absorbed by the breading. Still, overall, very good. The rice had a good texture, and was delicious. The beans were a little bit soupy, but overall also had a very good flavor. Overall, a very good meal. For food, soda, tax, and tip, Yes, the price is a little bit on the higher end, but I get it. It's Willow Creek. The food has to be brought in. Considering the quantity and quality of the food, the price was reasonable. This is a great place to stop when passing through town. Thank you!

First time trying Backwood Burritos after walking by it multiple times and I will be back!…read moreGot the outlaw burrito and it was delicious! Eggs, chili, and the chipotle crema made it super creamy and the bacon provided a good texture difference. Chorizo was excellent providing a punch of spice and salt. Only thing is that it was a little hard to tell there was supposed to be tater tots in it, as they seemed to get lost in the rest of the ingredients. Tortilla was also very good, could tell it was high quality. Staff is super friendly (just 1 guy and his burrito cart) and price is good for the quality of the ingredients. ~$12 for the one I got which is the most expensive. Definitely a must try for Arcata! Overall: 4.7/5

Grabbed a coffee at Jitter bean then a Burrito here...only 1 meat burrito left so gave it to the boy and just took a few bites. the guy working the cart was super friendly and kind. it's a quick and easy breakfast! size was a bit small for the price but does seem to be the standard size in relation to other burrito spots in Arcata (i'm used to San Diego which is on another level of Mexican food). solid food easy access get it while you can for best selection. great service. seems to be a popular pick around here.
