Absolutely the best steak and pork chops in town! Really big portions and lots of beer selection. Staff is friendly and the menu was great! Some of the best fries in town.
The AA bar & Grill is a steakhouse in Eureka, CA. The restaurant is clean, parking is easily available on the streets nearby. I ordered steak ( 14 once’s top sirloin) and fries with blue cheese topping, they were perfect, crispy and juice. When you order a steak it comes with a choice of soup or salad. I selected the salad, it was Ok. The only thing that was not perfect was the service, only two people for the whole restaurant. Despite of that, I do recommend this place for anyone that loves nice steaks.
This place is Top-notch. Blue collar type of joint the chicks who run the show do one hell of a job. Horseradish and cottage cheese went perfectly with the ribeye. It was a proper meal returning from the redwoods.
Trying to copy/paste the lengthy review I dropped into Yelp but... I was visiting eureka for pre construction site visits the next day, this was Tuesday night. Checked into hotel and had passed AA Steakhouse on the way to hotel. Looked it up, less than a mile away. Arrived to find an old school looking establishment, with a red door - which is a good sign. Horseshoe shaped bar, menu's written on blackboards, as was pointed out to me, and because it was 8 pm and my plan was to eat, shower and go to bed. I didn't want to eat heavy or a big steak. Ordered fish and chips, subbed chips for salad, came with chicken dumpling soup. Coupled this with an adult libation and it was outstanding. If it had been earlier and I were to have a dessert, I would have gotten another bowl of that chicken dumpling soup. I don't come to eureka but maybe every year or so. However, this is my place for when I again find myself in eureka. The service staff are very accomidating. And because I was skylarking at others steaks, next time I'll definitely get sumthing red, dead and corn feed!
Had an excellent rib-rye steak with baked potato and salad. Very generous portions, $35. The menu has a lot of entrees including fish and chips and porterhouse steak etc. Funky old time bar atmosphere with horseshoe shaped counter and a few tables. The bloody mary was also good. Worth checking out!
I had one of the absolute best rib eye steaks of my life here. I 100% recommend the gorgonzola butter. The green beans are very tasty and delicious. The ladies behind the bar are quick and friendly, and know how to mix a drink.
It's a dive bar with really great steaks! Good drinks, great people and a delicious salted caramel brownie. Only a couple of tables, so expect to sit and eat at the bar unless you get there early or get lucky.
Born and raised in Eureka, but never knew this little gem existed! I was 18 when I moved 100s of miles away may be a reason. So my daughter and son in law took us for lunch and it was FANTASTIC! Best filet mignon I have ever eaten! Bar tender, server, cashier all in one was fabulous! Can't wait for our next visit to Eureka!
AA Bar & Grill is a very popular place to have dinner. The steaks are very good and worth the wait. They have a beautiful horseshoe bar where it seems most of the regulars sit. Treat yourself when you visit Eureka.
Met a couple of your bartenders in my neck of the woods on their travels. Amazing, fun, personable, these were great people to meet!!! Can't wait to visit this place in person!!!
Best steaks, best baked potatoes, best salads in all of Humboldt County... I love you guys!! Always consistent.. much Love
Dive bar! A treasure of a find. Doesn't look much from the outside but cheap good beer. Great friendly staff! Even greater are the steaks they serve and at reasonable prices. That's a 20 ounces of red meat! Local join. Limited seating get in early.
Local pub and burger/steak joint. Love it! Brittany and the gang are the best. Go grab a burger and watch the game or chat with your bro/gal.
We were told this was not to be missed on our visit to Eureka. It did not disappoint. Two ribeyes cooked medium rare with gorgonzola butter. It was packed with no seating at the bar, but the service was attentive at the tables anyways. Absolutely returning next trip.
My girlfriend and I had steak dinners at the AA Bar on July 4. The dinner was good but fairly pricey. The steaks were large and juicy. My girlfriend ate about half of her steak. The dinners came with soup or salad and baked potato, onion rings or french fries. I recommend ordering gorgonzola butter (melted on the steak) for $3 extra.
Incredible grass-fed steaks in a bar with fresh draft drinks and the most wonderful vibe!
We came in on a Sunday evening after a recommendation from Carter House Inn; our party of 4 got the ribeye steaks and WOW.
AMBIANCE:
Our party of four grabbed some open bar seats and we were acknowledged immediately for our drink orders and also kindly pointed out the chalkboard menus for our food choices. We all went with the ribeye steaks which came with a salad or soup and also a side of fries or baked potato or onion rings. The U-shaped bar was very cool and the screens on the walls showed either the games that were on, or something easy to watch like TheChive TV or Family Feud.
FOOD:
The flavor of the steaks are amazing and deeply meaty, the texture is tender and if you go for the gorgonzola butter, honestly takes the steak to the next level. If you're not a fan of blue cheese, the included horseradish sauce cuts through the fattiness of the steak if you need it. We chatted with Ariel and she mentioned that the meat is cut in-house which may affect the quality and hey, if so it really does matter.
The doneness of the steaks were perfect. It's rare (ha) to have a place make a true medium rare and this place certainly does it right. Honestly one of the best steaks I've had and I've had Ruth Chris or Nick and Stef's - this place wins every time!
SERVICE:
We were traveling with folks from out of town and everyone was super kind and welcoming. Ariel helped describe how our steaks came from and really made us feel at home on top of our flavor adventure.
PS: My stoic father in law is really big on health foods so when he found out everything was grass-fed he ate with gusto and was really impressed with the taste too. So thanks for representing American steak, AA Bar & Grill!
Awesome. Would love to come again and will recommend to friends in the area for sure.
Not much to look at from the outside and very casual setting, which was just what I was looking for. Not a big place and most of the seating is at the bar, where most everybody was eating dinner. Good steak and super service.
