Eureka! - Irvine (CA)

4 /5 Russo Gasimov: Visited Eureka in Irvine (UTC) and had a really good experience overall. The staff were super friendly and attentive, making us feel welcome right away. The food was tasty and well-prepared, but the fries were just okay, could’ve been a bit crispier. Still, it’s a solid spot for a casual meal with great service and a fun atmosphere. Would definitely come back to try more items on the menu!

3 /5 Charley Xiao: The food was fantastic. I especially enjoyed the wings with buffalo sauce. The Eureka burger was also tasty and satisfying. However, I want to point out that the person at the counter was a bit racist. They led us two to the smallest table though we were the only customers then in the restaurant. We requested a bigger table and they agreed, reluctantly. Same for the waiters. They treated white customers with passion but basically ignored us two Asians. Eventually we couldn’t handle the wait and paid at the counter. Overall, if you’re white, this is definitely a great place to dine in with lots of great food; otherwise, I would advise not to.

4 /5 Kristian Ording: Fun spot right in the university area with a lively vibe, cool lighting and an open industrial feel. Big outdoor patio area with an awesome gas fireplace surrounded by water provides a great atmosphere for sitting outside on a cool evening. Tons of beers on tap and a very wide selection of bourbons and whiskeys. Big open bar with funky and comfortable bar chairs and the critical appropriately positioned footrest to make things nice and comfy. Friendly and helpful staff. What’s not to like?!?

4 /5 Gary Bruce: So I’m going to this place multiple times usually just to have a beer or a drink and the service is always pretty good because there’s no one really there when I come for lunch but this time I decided to try their burger and fries because every time I’m there for a drink and food always comes out and looks amazing so I went and ordered the burger the server suggested and it was amazing. Sorry I cannot remember the name of the burger and the fries were on point as well. Definitely will go back for a burger. Yes the burger and five combo is $18 but it’s very good.

5 /5 Jose Mendoza: This restaurant offered a dining experience that combined outstanding service with delicious food. The staff was warm and attentive, making guests feel right at home. The menu showcased variety without being overwhelming, providing excellent choices for different tastes. Dishes arrived promptly, perfectly cooked, and beautifully presented. Each bite reflected freshness and attention to detail. The atmosphere struck the right balance between lively and relaxed, making it easy to enjoy conversation. Cleanliness was clearly a priority, with every area well-maintained. The entire visit felt seamless, from ordering to the last bite. It was a thoroughly enjoyable experience worth repeating often.
