A fun vibe, diverse menu and locally inspired drinks have all contributed to the success of 16-unit Eureka!, which serves 20 signature burgers, as well as craft cocktails, tacos and more.
Eureka’s interiors, such as this one in Seattle, have a gastropub, “eatertainment” vibe.
There are 13 Eureka! restaurants throughout California, including this one in Indian Wells, as well as two in Texas and one in Seattle.

Eureka! specializes in craft beers and spirits.
Eureka’s 20 burgers are made from naturally raised beef, including this Cowboy Burger topped with shoestring onions, bacon, Cheddar cheese and beer-barbecue sauce.
