Love the "hoppy hour" here. 2-6pm and 9pm-close every day is tough to beat. Beyond that, the food is very tasty (especially the brussels sprouts) , and they always have solid service. Prices are in the moderate range, the beer selection is quite good, and the burgers are on point. It is a kind of upscale sports bar though, so it can get kind of loud and there are TVs all over the restaurant. They do have outside seating and they allow dogs on the patio.

Good food. Cozy. Lively. Family. Single Excellent place to unwind and dine. Food choices are plentiful - something for everyone. Fish tacos are healthy - every bite is a rainbow of flavors 🌈 Burgers - juicy delicious and filling Beers - IPA's are excellent.

Always have dinner there every few weeks. I thoroughly enjoy my burger and the service there is always speedy and excellent. No notes, I will be coming back for years to come.

LOVED our server Aliza. Best customer service we’ve received in over 10 years. She even let us try all the dips… cuz that’s the best part of any burger place and she was excited how excited we were to order them all. She even suggested two that she thought we’d like based on our order. I’m pretty sure she was giggling at my happy dance, but who could blame her. My date ordered a Wagu bone broth burger that didn’t look like it would taste as good as the menu made it sound… But seriously, it was melt in your mouth worthy or an award, just not not picture posting worthy (in his opinion). My fire crispy chicken sandwich on the other hand was like it came out of a cookbook image, and it tasted as good. The beets on tap and the bar area seemed impressive too, a long list of local options. We’ll be back.

Ok you got me. I never ever have been a pickle person. Your fried pickles are so delish I’ll have to adjust my life around this newfound wonder. The vibe is cool, rad bar menu, always good to see a game score or two and appreciate manager Chris for the kindness. Also dog friendly! Bingo. Changed for life. ☑️

Had lunch with a colleague. I enjoyed the Ribeye Philly Cheesesteak. Service is excellent.

The food was delicious! The burgers were on point, and the cheesey truffle fries made a great addition to my jalapeño egg burger. The servers were nice but only came by once to check on us and we were waiting for a while after we finished our meal, place wasn't busy but to be fair my family and I were haveing good conversations so they may have not wanted to interrupt. We will give them the benefit of the doubt. Either way 10 out of ten would recommend. Perfectly located on the outskirts of the plaza. Great for relaxing meals while still not being to far away from the crowds and shopping.

The only place in all of Santa Barbara that closes late! We were saved on a Monday that we had just arrived and there was nowhere to get food. The burgers are delicious, the beers, and the atmosphere is very nice. Very youthful, wide, good music. The waiters are very attentive!

Great burgers and great choices of draft beers and (if you like) many different types of whisky.

Normally when I’m told a drink has “a bit of a kick” I’m skeptical - I should have listened. The Watermelon lemonade is refreshing but there is a bit of chili kick to it. The el pastor fish tacos look small on the plate/photo but they were filling and really just the right amount for lunch.

I lost my last review that I typed so this is going to be quick and to the point.. Beet burger... lose the bun mix burger with salad, lemon dressing on salad, amazing. Chicken strips moist and tender, crust good but came off with each bite. Need to dry chicken more and pre dredge in flour or corn starch then batter... keep up the great food... OH bring back the turkey burger!!

This is a great family friendly restaurant with full bar.,Their meals are very unique including our favorites the mac and cheese bites, and of course the truffle Fries! Along with that are very creative burgers and sandwiches .On the weekend they serve a good brunch with $7 bloody Marys or mimosas. They have a lot of different beers on tap and a great selection of whiskey. Parking is easy down below in the shopping center, definitely a place you want to visit!

Very nice brew pub! Not busy at all when we got there around 7:30pm. We had seared ahi salad and fish & chips with the truffle fries. Both were very good! Had the Tipsy Pig Old Fashioned, which came in a surprise container and tasted great!

It was a bit late in the evening and I was really hungry but most places were closed or no longer serving food. Then I found Eureka! Solid place to eat and get drinks! My burger was pretty tasty. It was the chipotle burger. It did need to actually taste a bit more like chipotle but was good. Tuna app was fire! Eureka is in a nice spot to take a walk after dinner.

First time customer - very satisfied! Steak salad was simple but tasty. I was wary about the mustard-containing dressing and onion straws and both were good! BOGO mac and cheese balls were a great deal and cheat snack. Tasted the double smash burger and definitely looking forward to ordering that in the future. Can’t wait to visit in person!

Always a treat to come here, this location has a nice open atmosphere and the servers were all great and friendly. Had a funny bacon and whisky drink that was served in a porcelain pig haha The fig burgers were amazing with the truffle and sweet potatoes fries 😁 Prices are a little up there but so is everywhere now, a fun experience though

Food here was really good. Service was a little slow and I was served cold fries. Didn't even touch them. When I told the waiter he didn't offer to bring new ones or even take them off the bill. They were happy hour but come on. Spent over $150 on other food and drinks its really just the principle. All that being said, the food was great. Drinks amazing. I do like coming here for late night snacks.

This Eureka restaurant, located in the downtown Santa Barbara area, had very above average food. Not great, but very good. The service was a bit lackluster. It was not very busy at this location in the late afternoon early evening, but the staff was moderate at best. They definitely need a bit more training to go by tables after they've ordered and ensure that everything that the customer needs is present. That was not done so water remain unfilled and drinks remained unreplenished. That is not any type of rudeness, just a bit what I would call lack of focus. Overall I would give it 4 stars out of 5 And if they improve their training for customer service I would bounce it up to 4.5 stars. Unlike the other Eureka establishments I have been to, this place was not overly loud, which is a problem at the others, notably Claremont. I would highly recommend this restaurant if you happen to be in the area.

Really great restaurant with several good vegetarian options. Portion sizes are generous and the service was amazing. Fried pickles and the spicy chicken sandwich were faves.

Nice fun place staff was very friendly and helpful. We showed up with a large party on Grad night, and the manager made it happen for use. Thank you, sure, for saving the night. Open till midnight, so if you need a nice dinner spot, this is it nice bar and craft beer selection.

Pretty good. Solid Whiskey selection. Good burgers, wings, nachos & drinks. Vegas location as well.. ***my Headhunter drink with the 2 drink warning could've been stronger lol. As a drink enthusiast & bartender nothing worse than a good cocktail base that don't hit another half shot or Rum topper would've made all the difference. Overall experience still pretty good however.

Burgers are delicious, but a bit pricey. I get the feeling this is a place based more upon their happy hour drink specials. They have MANY beers on tap and an expansive collection of spirits. Their happy hour lasts most of the night, except highest traffic times. Outdoor heated seating available.

I came here the other Nov 1 around 9 pm with a large group and at first our experience was great. The host was friendly and let us charge phones and it was a great atmosphere. Unfortunately our server did not grace us with anything friendly. He rolled his eyes at us, purposely ignored us, and severed us dirty water cups. We even found a fly in one of the group drinks. His energy towards us completely ruined the experience. We were a group of mixed races( mainly black) and we felt like we were targeted as he didn't treat the other tables around us the same. He was very friendly( making jokes) and not ignoring the other tables. I believe the server's name was Juan. I have nothing against the establishment, but there wasn't a manager available for us to speak too and we hope that something like that doesn't happen to anyone else. We did inform the host( who was kind and friendly ) and he was shocked by this behavior, but since he's not in management we knew there was nothing much he could do. I honestly didn't have time to really try the food, because I didn't feel comfortable staying after finishing my drink. It's very unfortunate to be in an establishment where you don't feel welcomed. Hopefully they can provide more customer service training on their staff and in the service industry it's best to treat each customer the same.
