We had an absolutely fantastic dinner at Plaza Grill! My husband ordered the Coconut Risotto with Mahi, and I had the Grilled Halibut--both dishes were perfectly cooked and full of flavor. We also shared the Beet Salad with Cypress Grove Goat Cheese, Spiced Nuts, and Granny Smith Apples, which was super fresh and delicious! The Scallop Appetizer was another standout, and both the Havana and Mojito cocktails were incredibly tasty. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made the experience wonderful. Love Plaza Grill and always run into old friends. Tonight, I ran into two old friends, which made the evening extra special. The awesome and original Wallace & Hinz Bar is the classic. It's so beautiful and so many amazing drinks are made behind it. Woohoo! Highly recommend Plaza Grill for its amazing food, great drinks, and top-notch service!

Will be sad to see them go! Go try it while you still can! I love the shepherds pie and they have a great kid's menu, classy dining for an affordable price in Arcata :)

Old times feel to the place. Burgers are robust. Simple menu done uniquely well. I definitely recommend trying it if you're in Arcata. They also have decent vegetarian options. My Coconut Curry Risotto was delightful. Even the garlic butter for the bread they bring to the table is amazing.

Fun place!!! We arrived early as I had a five year old and I wanted to beat the rush. We were probably the second table seated. Our waitress was having an off day, but food was good. We ordered a shepherds pie and a beet salad with chicken and sweet potato fries. The beet salad wasn't quite what I was expecting. In my mind, a beet salad would be heavy on the beets and less greens. This was mostly greens with about five thin slices of beets. The waitress mistakenly didn't hear me ask for chicken on the salad so I had to wait for the protein. By the time it came I just had it boxed up. Also my grandson wanted sweet-potato fries and they came out after all the food 5 min-10 min later. Again food tasted great everyone was very friendly and always smiled. And was even great as a second meal next day.

I saw the lady spray the cleaner all over the table, and the salt n pepper shakers, then she picked up the salt n pepper, and wiped the table down. If your food tastes weird that's why. Food was great. Steak was cold. Maybe it was supposed to be. Medium rare?

I'm newer to the area so trying this place for the first time tonight. What a treat! We arrived early for dinner and found they have a happy hour with great bites and drink prices. (Tues-Sat 5/6 pm) Because I have a small appetite, we didn't partake in the appetizers, but will plan to come sometime soon just for the happy hour menu. I had the BBQ brisket dinner, which was tender and flavorful, and served with tasty seasonal vegetables and great whipped potatoes. My husband had meatloaf which came with the same sides as well as gravy. Portions for both were very generous - easily two meals for my husband and likely 3 for me. Dessert was tempting as I'm a sucker for crème brûlée and I heard the chocolate torte is good as well. No room for it this time, maybe on my next happy hour visit. Natalia provided exceptionally warm and efficient service and we thought the prices were great.

Came here on a work trip during Halloween. The atmosphere and service was great. The staff was all dressed up in costumes which made the kids their excited. There was a lot of meals on the menu that caught my eye so I ordered some appetizers. I ordered some awesome Fried Calamari, and Mac and cheese. Our group shared a great tasting chocolate cake. The food is a little bit on the pricing for my liking but I would come back for the food I ordered.
