This place has really good chicken burritos but their El Burro burrito is great! It's huge so two people can share one just fine. Just up the street on River Road on the left.

This place is right around the corner from us on River Road and you can rent electric bicycles for a few hours or for the day. You may not realize it, but the Willamette River is just a couple blocks from us and you can walk or ride for miles on end. It’s one of our favorite things about where we live!
