What's your go-to local eatery from the Eugene/Springfield area? What do you like to get there, and why? Food

I've lived in the Eugene area all my life, and I've for sure had my go-tos if I'm ever in the mood for a certain something. But I've really been wanting to explore my taste buds a little more, and who better to ask for recommendations than the community itself?

So I want to hear from you on where your go-to food place is, and what your favorite menu item is to get. Whether it's from a restaurant, a food truck, a bar, et cetera, I want to hear it.

Preferably, don't recommend chains (regional or national), unless there's a REALLY good food item that's unique to the rest.

I look forward to what comes from this open discussion.

El Super Burrito. The fish burrito in particular for me. Also Newman's is a contender for best fish and chips I've had anywhere.

Never thought to put french fries in a burrito, but I have developed a craving for the Oregon at El Super. Not authentic, but it's damn tasty.

Not authentic to Mexico, but certainly authentic to Mexican-American cuisine. As much as I hate to admit it, in most places it's called a California burrito due to its origin.
