Really good portion sizes on the meat. Guacamole always tastes very fresh. Usually chipotles are skimping during lunch but not this one

I've been a Chipotle fan for decades, with consistently great experiences in California—fresh food, quick service, and friendly staff. But this Shady Oak location in Minnetonka has been a total letdown, and this was my third bad visit in a row. I placed an online order for pickup at 11 AM, arrived a bit after to give them time since I know they can be busy. The order wasn't ready, and despite making eye contact with multiple employees while standing at the counter, they just kept going about their tasks without acknowledging me. It felt like I was invisible.When I finally asked about my order, one staff member sourly requested my name and then ignored me again—no update, no ETA. Another whispered that I'd have to cancel online myself if I wanted out. No apology or effort to help. If I'd ordered in line, it would have been faster, but defeats the point of app ordering for convenience. The team seems disengaged, like they hate being there. I've escalated to corporate for a refund, but I'm done with this spot—stick to other locations if you can.

Best Chipotle in Twin Cities (SLP is the worst). We get takeout from here weekly and staff are great. Kudos to hiring manager. This place is what fast food should be- quick, easy and convenient.

Its is exactly what you would expect from a Chipotle. The food was exactly what I wanted and the staff helped as much as they where able. The only problem is that if you order online and have an issue that the store can't effect (pricing, wrong location) they cannot help you. And the process of getting help from Chipotle online is terrible. Good store and staff and the price isn't totally ridiculous for what you get.

The quality of food has gone so subpar. The last time I got food here the rice was mush and the steak was just terrible and too salty. Now I ordered the carne instead and got guacamole and the guacamole is just old and tastes off. It's disgusting. If it's not fresh don't sell it, not a hard concept. I won't be coming back again.
