My kitchen is a pretty happening place, but I'm not open to the public.
Help me out with what kind of cuisine you're after.

Quality is more important than the cuisine, honestly. I'll try anything as long as it's good.

GJ's I think it is called on 6th street (Eugene) I think west of downtown maybe a half mile or so before you hit the Beltline. Excellent breakfast! Think greasy spoon!

The fish market place downtown (Eugene) was pretty good too!

Kona Cafe, get a small two choice with volcano chicken, Kaulua pork (w/ cabbage) and potatoe mac salad.

Fins drive-in, get the Bel Air burger

Jung's Mongolian Grill FTW. Favorite place to eat for my wife and I. Cut back on the noodles, and it is very healthy too.

Coburg has one of the best bbq places called Chiefs, their pulled pork is to die for.

Cafe 440 - Good food all around
B Square - Goos food all around
Mio- best sushi in town
Chiefs - Best burgers and bbq
Buddy's Cafe - pretty good breakfast food
Meza Luna - good pizza
Pho The Good Time Asian Bistro - Best Pho
Chappalla Mexican Restaurant- Pretty good

My wife and I were quite underwhelmed by the food as well when we moved here 4 years ago. Still not overly excited about most places. Above haunts are all decent.

Ewwwwwwww....... WTH?!!

You placed a dirty stripper crack-cocaine-handled by thousands of unwashed hands-fecal matter saturated $20 bill on your cutting board, next to your cut of meat?!!






YUMMY!!

Chiefs - Best burgers and bbq

I'm fond of their brisket sandwich, although much of the flavor is the sauce. Treat yourself to the sweet potato fries as well.

Warning on the fish whatever-it-is sandwich, I threw mine out after a few bites.
It took me quite a while to get over that disappointment, but the brisket was good as ever.

A little gem IMO is the McKenzie Cafe, out around 43rd or so on the Hwy 26 headed East.

Not spectacular in the 'sparkle-twinkle' praise kind of way, but simple/satisfying/non-glitzy seems healthy kind of way.

I had searched FOR DECADES for a really decent Rubin sandwich. After driving by it (out W 11th a bit) FOR DECADES finally stopped by what must have been THE BEST Ruben in the WORLD.

After enjoying regular stops every time I was in town over the next 6 months, the owner retired and closed the place down. Forever.

My loss.

So if any body knows where to find a truly magnificent Rubin please post.

For those looking for 'extreme burgers' and brats, you should schedule a visit to 'Junk Yard Dogs' per this link: Junkyard Extreme Burgers + Brats

N of Junction City on 99, before the bridge at Harrisburg.
Not your grandma's type of cafe. Probably.

High margins there! Rent is cheap.
