I am so happy the place across the street is closed. The Hella Good Deal is really a HELLUVA GREAT DEAL! I 'm not sure where the recipe is from. But I would eat this again and again. But then, I 'm Crazy Patrick from Terrebonne, Oregon. Google Smith Rock State Park. Meal type: Dinner Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

It's a good place for quick Mexican food. Here are some tips: 1. Try their carne asada fries! 2. Place your order on Snackpass; they have two locations, one on the Northside and one on the Southside! 3. They have extended hours...

I visited again for a touch of nostalgia, and it was just as delicious as I remembered. For $11-13, the special burrito—which comes with guacamole and sour cream—offers a satisfying portion size!
