We eat it probably once every 1-2 weeks. I think it is tasty, and that Freebirds/Qdoba is very bland.

I would go to Chuy's more, but they are always packed. When I say packed, I am talking 1-1.5 hour wait to be seated.

I wouldn't fuck a female who ate at Chipotle with your dick...

Are you mentally deficient?

Well, speaking of Chipotle...

I find their food tasty and of good quality. I can see why they flourish.

It is very 'westernized' mex-food which is not a bad thing in this case.

Somebody mentioned that they go there for their hot sauce. LOL. There is no hot sauce at Chipotle IMO.

I am in Chicago can eat real mex food in various places. There is a place for Chipotle regardless.

In my area, we have a place called Hot Head Burritos which IMO is several times better than Chipotle.

Don't get me wrong, you get quality food at Chipotle. At Hot Head's, you get probably 30 different sauces to put on your food. Instead of picking mild, hot, or corn salsa, you so many options to choose from!

Also, they have much better pricing than Chipotle. They have deals every day with punch cards making it that much better.

Check them out right now.

I really want Hot Head's now... :l

The first time I went to Chipotle, I was all HERP DERP about it not being authentic Mexican food. Then I decided to just sit down and just view it as food rather than to give it expectations from elitist labels. I discovered that I much more enjoyed their blend of ingredients than the usual Mexican burrito from the local hole in the wall joint in So Cal.
I hardly found myself going to the authentic Mexican places after visiting Chipotle. YMMV.

Yep, it's one block away from my office in Bowling Green. In fact, I'll probably get lunch there today.

Well yeah given the choice I prefer Angelo-ized Mexican food as well. Unless I am hungover and I crave the grease.

It's because Caucasian people are retarded dipshits with no taste buds. MCDonalds is constantly voted America's best fries, and Chipotle stays packed. MCDonald's has some of the worst food ever, and honestly if they started serving Mexican I'd eat there before I'd eat at Chipotle.

Years ago I was working on a square-rigged sailing ship and we were docked in Quebec City for a couple of weeks alongside a luxurious Danish topsail schooner named the Lady Ellen. One night I was getting drunk on deck with a couple of people including their classically trained chef. This guy had cooked at Michelin 3-star joints in Paris, Brussels, and other cities. I asked him to tell me honestly whether he ever ate fast food. He leaned in all conspiratorial and such, and in a slurred Danish accent said "You will keep it to yourself, but sometimes when we are ashore I go to McDonalds. They have the best french fries in the world."

True story.

I tend to get turned off by their small portions and expensive prices. I love their steak tacos but when I'm done it feels like I just ate an hors d'&#339;uvre or something and I'm still hungry for lunch.

Sometimes when I want to diet I'll start going there regularly. They're burritos are pretty filling and decently rounded nutrition-wise and are about 1000 calories, which leaves me losing about a pound a week if that's all I eat in a day.

Don't know about tacos but I could NEVER say their burritos or burrito bowls are "small portions."

I'm stuffed to a degree of "perfectly satiated, if not a tad over" without feeling "omg naptime" carb-overloaded.

If you can, you should reevaluate your current lot in life, namely the circumference of your body. (or, if you have an intensive training plan and need to feast on 3500 calories a day - good for you, keep at it!)

"Small portions?" You ever get a fajita burrito?

I usually get 1.5 to 2 meals out of Chipotle.

I used to live near one (Monterey CA), but I only ate there when friends insisting on going. The food was just so-so in my opinion. There were just too many authentic taquerias in the area (mostly in Salinas) to bother with corporate fast food Mex.

The only reason I know a bit of spanish is because of chipotle, when you order in spanish, at least around here, you get free double meat about 90% of the time.

People just randomly get indigestion when they eat such a large amount of meat. Happens to me about 1 out of 5 times I eat a giant fajita burrito there.

No. Not bloody shit-stained underwear. Just "I have to take a shit NOW!"

That's not called indigestion.

I've never had "random indigestion" from eating a large quantity of meat. And the amount of meat in a large burrito can hardly be called "large" in comparison to a typical burger or small dinner steak.

I had it once in the downtown Toronto location. I can't stand cilantro, so the cilantro-lime rice ruins it for me. I also always order burritos without guacamole

I pretty much only eat burritos at Barburrito, they have a couple locations around Toronto, one is close to my work. No guac, of course.

There is a specific gene that causes cilantro for certain people to taste absolutely horrid (most people describe a "soapy" taste), it is possible you have just such a gene.
