If you’re heading to Silver Glen Springs, this spot is your last real food stop—and it’s a solid one. Great place to grab some Mexican food before hitting the park.

Whether you’re stocking up for a picnic or just need a quick bite, this place won’t disappoint.
El Pastor is a little store front restaurant with 6 tables, five of which are four tops. So depending on the time you get there, you could end up waiting.El Pastor honestly makes the best (Fridays only) Tamales I have ever had with a good balance of filling to maize.I had the (chicken ) soft corn taco lunch combo with rice and delicious refried beans and two tamales with a tamarind agua fresca. All of which were excellent. I would drive to Umatilla again just for the tamales....
