Larrupin Cafe

OMG I don't know where to begin! This old building is fabulous. The ambience is warm and welcoming. The staff is top shelf, efficient and friendly and helpful and the food was out of this world delicious. I can't believe it took me a while to go check this restaurant out after hearing my friends rave about it. But I know about it now and you better believe we'll be back. It is such a wonderful special occasion place to go I had the filet mignon and shrimp totally delicious. The fillet was cooked to absolute perfection. This place is the real deal in Humboldt County. I highly recommend

What a fun experience! I can't wait to go back and catch them earlier! The ambiance is fabulous and very unique. Great place to sit and enjoy your company and the amazing food. Augustine was our wonderful server for the evening and he does a fabulous job. He's great at his job very knowledgeable and has a great smile. We felt right at home. Let's talk food - Appetizer board - wonderful flavors and "it's meant to be playful" loved the description of how to combine the items. Get the explanation of the food so you know what you are eating and where it came from! Yummy Half n Half - wow the meat is amazing and yes the brisket is a little spicy so be warned! The salad that comes with the meal is fun and perfect. Fish of the day - we went with steelhead and changed the bed to risotto. Can't go wrong the flavors were on point and everything was perfectly cooked. Vanilla crème brûlée- wow the top was amazing and crunch and the flavor was perfect including the texture. Signature desert- I don't remember the name but might have been a little too smoky for me. I like the textures and it was so cute how it was served. Lemon tart? The bomb! So worth it!! Oh and the music - I say on the bench and put on my shoes and thought someone might be inside playing a piano. Walked in and the sounds were filling the building and added that perfect swanky calming comfortableness to complete the evening. All in all I say a 10 and I'm hard on things! Okay so I didn't like the wine I picked but that's my fault no one else's! I should have asked to taste it before committing. It would be a great spot for a party!!

Wow! What a great treasure lived in Humboldt my whole life but my first time finally going and I was impressed! Excellent food, wonderful service, great atmosphere. Nothing but great things about this place and would return in a second. Can't wait to go back. Highly recommend!

This was easily the most amazing dinner I've ever had! The ambiance was incredible, with great service (our waitress was so sweet and explained everything in great detail)- it truly was an amazing date night. We started with their appetizer board that comes with dinner, along with grilled oysters (they had them as a special) and the rosemary roasted garlic app. Everything was delicious and then our dinner came out which was perfect timing! The steak was cooked to perfection and truly could not have been better. Dessert was crème brûlée and a slice of chocolate pecan pie (also amazing). I have driven past this restaurant many times without ever realizing that this gem was inside! Truly worth the drive up to Trinidad and we will absolutely be back. Humboldt County is lucky to have Larrupin as a dining option!

So we are roadtripping from Washington State to Florida and are staying at the Trinidad Inn which is .9 miles down the road from this amazing beautifully delicious restaurant. Now mind you.. we thought we were only going to be able to find gas station road trip food but this Gem among Gems just blew our minds.. OMG said 20+ times... Service top notch! Well spoken, knowledgeable, and friendly ‍ The artwork was amazing l. I wanted to go look more closely at some but be a bit weird hovering over a table. Lighting is soft and inviting. Thanks again!
