We decided to stop in and try the steaks for our Anniversary. We went in around 4:15pm (dinner starts at 4pm) and easily found a table. The steaks were melt in your mouth perfect. The Gorgonzola butter is good but a bit salty. Justine was fantastic - she was holding down the bar and serving tables with a smile.

Eating at AA Grill felt like stepping into a classic small-town dive bar—and I mean that in the best way. The vibe was super laid-back, and the food totally surprised us. The fried chicken was crazy crispy (in a good way!), though I think the batter could use just a bit more seasoning. My husband’s steak was huge and cooked perfectly medium-rare—he was very happy. Service was chill and steady. Overall, a great little spot we’ll definitely hit up again.

We were 2 starving people came here late night after a 6hr hiking. My friend saw the steak sign as we drove by so we visited this place without any prior review/plan. It was mid summer time and house was full. Steak was great! (Taste, portion size, and price all very satisfying) I also loved their local cider, couldn’t remember the name but got me trying cider in every bar I went thereafter.

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!

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.

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.

This place used to have the best steaks in town. We came here on Valentine's Day because you didn't need a reservation. The bartenders are a little mean to you, but I liked it. The food came out a little cold/room temperature like it's been sitting for awhile. If I'm paying $50 bucks for a steak it better come out hot. I think they rested it for too long because the gorgonzola butter I ordered to go on top wasn't even melting. But the drinks are good here. And we ended up having a grand ol time.

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.

Came here to eat with my wife on a Friday at noon. Every table was empty. We were turned away because I didn’t have my ID on me while we were walking around downtown. Wasn’t planning on buying alcohol. Despite being called a “Bar & Grill” this establishment only offers bar services. We went to a nearby competitor, a grill with a bar that also served alcohol, and the hostess looked at me like I was crazy when I asked if I needed ID just to eat food, and she was equally confused to hear AA was turning away customers for no good reason. The bar was absolutely packed with alcoholics though despite being noon on a Friday, so if you’re a couple or family, steer clear. If you’re at rock bottom this might be the place for you.

I called to see if they were hiring or if I could send my information via email ., because I don’t live nearby and was trying to get a list of places that might actually be hiring to visit. I was also very sick and had just lost my job, trying to figure things out. The woman who answered responded in a harsh, angry tone, saying, "You're calling instead of coming in? You won’t get the job. Anyway," and immediately hung up on me. I’m glad that I had that interaction first though cause there’s no way in hell I would want to work with someone so cold. That's not the way to talk to people and if thats how you treat a random person over the phone I can only imagine how horrible she is in person. I have loved coming by Double a's mainly for the food since i was a kid, but that lady just lost a lifelong customer and potential good coworker over her terrible heartless attitude. As a bartender myself for years I would never treat anyone that way especially answering on a work phone at work. Every other person i talked to this day were nice helpful and gave me emails and ideas of places to check out. Try hiring less miserable people. Disgusting behavior. Im sure she did that in front of customers as well with how busy it sounded in the backround and probably went and laughed it off afterwards how evil to treat someone who is just struggling to find work during the holidays ????

Wow, this was my second time trying this restaurant and I won't be going back for a 3rd attempt. The service here was extremely poor, I came in for breakfast this time, I had 3 in my party and 2/3 didn't get their complete order, then when we mentioned that we didn't receive all of our food we were given only 1 of the missing items and then the bill came, I asked for a glass of water at the end and the server told me to follow her to the bar to get the water! Wow! Maybe the server was overwhelmed with the less than 20 people who were there but I think that she felt that her job was done when she delivered our check even though we didn't even get all of the food that we ordered. i like to think that I'm an easy customer to serve, I didn't cause a big fuss about the missing food, I mentioned it and we received part of the missing food so rather than keep complaining I just decided that I wouldn't be going back to this place. It's a dive bar, sure but they should still make sure to provide the service that their customers had paid for, I didn't order anything more than their meals already had included. And the food that I did receive was terrible, if you go here NEVER order the biscuits and gravy! It was super bland and seemed like they just added flour to milk to make the gravy that was poured on top of some nasty stale biscuits. Maybe the hash browns that were missing from the order would have compensated for the lackluster biscuits and gravy but I never got those even though they were included with the meal. I doubt they were all that fabulous considering the quality of what I did receive. I figured that if I had to hold their hand to get my food that I would probably get food that was tampered with or something, maybe spit on or dropped on the floor intentionally. . I wouldn't recommend this place to someone that I disliked. It's too bad because I really wanted to like this place, but if you aren't going to sit at the bar and only order drinks then this isn't the spot to dine

I used to go to AA for breakfast every weekend and it was always awesome in every way. It's definitely a dive bar atmosphere, it has its charm. Today was the first time I'd been there in a year or more. They had only one person bartending/serving and one person in the kitchen - I can't see any reason for them to have a skeleton crew when they're so busy and I know they're raking it in, so my complaint is about the business more than the staff. It took about 30 minutes before we got the server's attention long enough to order (just barely). The coffee was cold and there was definitely no opportunity for refills. The food, which used to be so delicious, was AWFUL. The gravy tastes like paste, just raw flour, no seasoning, a few specs of sausage that did not add any flavor. No part of the meal was seasoned. Two of our 3 breakfasts came out with no hash browns, which is like a third of the breakfast. By the time we finally got those hash browns, we were finished eating so we were over it by then but they only sent out one order instead of the two we were shorted. We weren't trying to wait another half hour or more to get it sorted. We just won't be going back. There are enough good restaurants in Eureka at this point, resting on your laurels is not going to work anymore.
