    Was yelled at after ordering on door dash pick up for myself the The lady was completely unhinged I said my order was not ready by screaming at me not ready! Someone else came to the front after I waited 5 minutes and asked me what I was waiting on the lady just screamed he's not ready I then told him my name and explained was waiting on an order and it was a doordash pickup for myself!!!!!! She said someone already picked it up I said that's impossible because it's for me I get points your using DoorDash and deals so if that gentleman did not come to the front and talk to me who knows how long it would have waited she just dismissed me completely poor attitude and was so rude I was very embarrassed will never return to this location

    Posting this on November 3rd. Why are they closing at 7PM? The interaction we had with the woman employee was extremely unpleasant. She is disgustingly rude and probably needs to get trained again

    Show up at 10:45, no one even unlocks the door until another person starts pounding on it at 10:55. Looks like they aren’t even tracking online orders

    This is THE WORST Chipotle. Consistently out of ingredients such as brown rice and guacamole. Waited twenty minutes to find out no guacamole. Then, given attitude when inquiring about making a sign so those behind me are aware. Try another location!
