Cafe Phoenix at 1360 G Street, Arcata, California.

Generous portions, friendly staff, fresh ingredients all combine to win my recommendation for the Cafe Phoenix. I ordered the omelette with the addition of spinach. They are willing to make slight adjustments to the menu items. I was also pleasantly surprised to discover the cook used a nice, flavorful, aged cheddar in the omlette's preparation. My companion enjoyed the Phoenix Classic of "perfectly" poached eggs with veggies, (brussels sprouts, cabbage, broccoli, carrots, and the addition of spinach). We noted minimal, if no, use of butter or salt in the preparation of the meals. Cafe Phoenix has a small informal dining area with seating in front of a large picture window where you can watch the world pass by on G street while you eat your meal. The dining area can get pretty noisy when only half full. Not recommend for quiet conversations.
