Cafe Nooner on Opera Alley in Eureka has been a Humboldt County Mediterranean cafe institution since it opened, building a menu around fresh Mediterranean mezze, sandwiches, and the Middle Eastern and Southern European cafe food that earns a North Coast California restaurant its loyal following in a market where the cuisine is genuinely rare and welcome. It appeared in Season 19, Episode 5 of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, “Dynamite Duos,” which aired March 7, 2014. Guy Fieri found a Eureka cafe kitchen doing Mediterranean food from scratch with the quality and warmth that earns a small California city restaurant its destination reputation.
