Eurkea! Burger opened in Paseo Nuevo Mall this September, after much speculation by area residents and empty stomachs everywhere. Serving gourmet burgers, craft beers and a wide assortment of American whiskeys in a fun, open environment, Eureka! Burger brings a fun, new dining experience to downtown Santa Barbara.

The menu at Eureka! Burger focuses - not surprisingly - on burgers, made with Angus ground chuck and topped in surprising ways. Fig marmalade and goat cheese, fried egg and jalapenos, these are just two of your mouthwatering options. Ground beef patties can be substituted for turkey or veggie patties and are served with Eureka! Burgers hand-cut fries. The extensive appetizer menu includes truffle fries, mac n' cheese and tempura Blue Lake green beans. Fresh products are purchased from local vendors whenever possible. 

In addition to Eureka! Burger's large selection of craft beers and whiskeys, there is also a full bar and creative cocktail menu that allows you to pick your poison. The restaurant's daily "Hoppy Hour" is from 2-6 PM and features beer and wine specials alongside reduced appetizer prices. And on Tuesdays, all wine by the glass if half price, all day.

Eureka! Burger is open daily from 11 AM until midnight. Grab a drink with the girls while on a shopping date, or stay and catch a game on one of several flat screen TVs. Eureka! Burger is the perfect place for lunch, dinner or a late night snack.
