I ordered online through the Chipotle app. It was a pretty large and expensive order. When the food arrived there were no utensils as requested. The side of guacamole was dark brown. One burrito bowl was supposed to have barbacoa and it was carne asada. Another burrito bowl was supposed to have chicken and it was completely burned. I honestly don’t even know if it was really chicken. The rice wasn’t cooked all the way and was crunchy. I called to make a complaint as I spent a pretty penny and could t even get anyone to talk to me on the phone.

Service was absolutely horrible, it’s January 2nd 2026 at 10:15pm I asked the worker a question about the food she proceeds to say “what you see is what you get” then proceeds to tell me I can “meet her outside”. Very un professional and off putting won’t return to this location.

ME: Can I have more veggies, please?
EMPLOYEE: We’re out of veggies
ME: What about those veggies that I see cooking on the grill?
E: Those are for mobile orders only. We’re otherwise out.
ME: So you’re saying if I place an order right now on my phone, I could have those veggies?
MANAGER: Yes.
E: You see, the online customers have already paid for those veggies.
ME: That doesn’t make any sense. If I were to order online, I have not yet paid for those veggies. I would pay, and then they would be mine, just as I am willing to do here in this line. I don’t want to get out of line and wait for an online order. Can you just take a discount off for the fact that there aren’t any veggies?
MANAGER: No, sir, because the veggies aren’t what you’re paying for in a veggie burrito.
ME: Then how are the veggies in the back already “paid for”??!!

This is probably the worst chipotle I've ever been to, the 2 times I ate from here the food Is absolutely disgusting, the rice is undercooked and hard as a rock, it's super flavorless, they gave me like 2 pieces of chicken for an entire dang burrito and the whole burrito was just that nasty hard rice with black beans, nothing more!!! sadly I was sick and ordered door dash but door dash ordered from this location since it's the closest and omg the most nasty shit I've ever eaten. 20$ wasted. Teach your employees how to follow the cooking instructions!!!

Guy workers were handsome. That about it.
Burrito and chipotle bowl - rice was not even cooked to par. Steak wasn’t even how I like my steak. Rice Still hard. No seasoning on anything everything just tasted bland. First time having Chipotle for the BOGO, & I wasn’t really impressed. The establishment had the heat up way too much. Was sweating waiting in line. Counter where my burrito was wrapped could’ve been more frequently wiped down, so that was also another turnoff. Most likely will not be returning to any chipotle. I give credit where credits due please don’t think I’m one of those disgruntled customers.
