Do any have a problem with eating at Chipotle (The Mexican Grille)?

[Stew]

I dont like eating inthe establishment because the lines are so long that you have slack jawwed little kids staring your burrito down while you are eating and they are in a line wrapping around the store, and your table.

I prefer to order online, and walk to the opposite end of the line when i get there, grab my food and walk out. Ill eat my Chipotle at home without people breathing all over it. I also donthave to wait in said line this way either.

Burrito Bol man, no tortilla, thats where ALL of the calories are, in the tortilla

I/We eat there 3 times a week!

I get ½ steak ½ chicken in my bol, no beans... sour cream, lettuce, tomatoes, onions and peppers and cheese, every now and then I get guacamole

you get sour cream and cheese, but are worried about the tortilla packing on calories?

Come on man, I never said i was worried about it, i just cut out 330 calories by not eating the tortilla is all, since its just about the highest single calorie item on their menu (not including a whole prepared burritos) or is. Cant live without the others LOL

By the way – I hope that everyone knows about the mix it up request.

THE ONLY AND I MEAN ONLY WAY to eat a Chipotle Burrito is to ask for them to mix it up. Very very very important.

When they are done putting all your stuff on, simply ask them to mix it up. They then take out a plastic fork and mix up all the fillings and then wrap up the burrito. This makes it so every flavor is in every single bite and you don’t have some of those bites that are 95% just rice, or cheese, etc.

Someone taught me about this request about a year ago and it changed my life. The people sometimes get pissed when you ask, but **** it, it makes it taste amazing.

Sometimes to really piss them off, I ask them to mix it up, and then when they're done mixing it up, I say "Ok now un-mix it."

Hahahaha, do they look at you like "Que!??" :hysterical:

[sjinhan]

hmm they are opening one next to my work this weekend... tomarrow night they are having pre-opening party (free food) for office people...

need to decide on what to get

[Madison Redskin]

My problem is that each meal is delicious, but contains at least 1,000 calories.

Chipotle is the ****ing ****. I don't live close to one now but when I did I would eat there twice a week. I try to go there whenever I can now. A bowl with Chicken, extra rice and beans, hot sauce, cheese, sour cream, lettuce, with a tortilla on the side. DELICIOUS. :drool:

[Mickalino]

Hahahaha, do they look at you like "Que!??" :hysterical:

or "Que the **** ?? "

Chipotle Best place to eat!!!

I can put away 2 burritos no problem. SOOO GOOODDDD

i'll say sorry now, in advance...but

THAT IS CRAP MY FRIEND.

I can freaking eat, and eat alot. I couldn't even fathom putting to away in a sitting...

if you can, YOU ARE THE MAN:silly:

[Mordac]

Chipotle is fine, but I also prefer Baja Fresh. And any of the 'Berto's for carne asada fries. Can you dig it?

[kevin11]

Any of you every tried a place called Moe's South Western Grill? It is also a really great Mexican fast food place.

[jrockster21]

Anyone from Texas been to Freebirds World Burrito? It wasn't as good as Chipotle until recently, when they added Carnitas. That place is fantastic.

As to the OP - I love Chipotle as well.

[WhoRUSupposed2Be]

I can't believe some people ruin perfectly good chipotle food by putting sour cream on it. :doh:

Sour cream is the finishing touch needed.

[CPortJGibbs89]

I had Chipotle today. Whenever I get the burrito my stomach feels so full and I feel bloated. When I get the bowl I feel not as full and better. I am about to go **** out the burrito right now.

Mah, I do not think Moe's is as good as Chipotle or Qdoba.

My list goes:

Chipotle

Qdoba

California Tortilla

Moe's

Salasritas

Barbarito's

Some of these are regional places, as I am sure a lot of people here know about California Tortilla. I left some spaces for emphasis.

No chipotle thread is EVER complete without a link to my cousins website.

He lost 100 lbs eating ONLY chipotle burritos. Has gotten off all kind of medications, doctor says he is in great health.

He is the Jared of Chipotle.

Qdoba > Chipotle

[Sebowski]

Never had a problem. Love the place. Never get the beans because I don't like beans.

The Barbacoa bowl with a tortilla on the side is my favorite.

[mnb123]

Qdoba > Chipotle

lol

[Mooka]

Yep big problem. Because their food sucks. Their rice is weird.

Of course I live out west and there are awesome Taqeuria's all over the place. When I lived back east I'd eat Chipotle, but would mix in some tacos because of the rice.

Ever since I asked for and got a Bowl with a tortilla on the side I have yet to eat another burrito. Get the tortilla on the side and you pretty much have a fajita plate and you can make your own little tacos. No more broken burritos.

You can also get great quesadillas there, btw. They will even add a meat to it.

I love Chipotle and never had a problem after eating there, but with the high sodium levels in their food, I can't eat that or any fast food anymore because I am on a low sodium diet from my high blood pressure.

From myself eating at Chipotle's and other fast foods with tons of sodium has caused my high blood pressure.

Be careful out there.
