    Food was disgustingly bland, the queso was watered down, and servers were plain rude. I see why people are boycotting this excuse for a fast food chain. McDonald’s does better than this.

    This is Chipotle has some issues. The food is good and I actually got a chance to talk to. It was either a general manager or regional manager that happened to be there and he was very nice and accommodating so I had a pleasant experience with him. I noticed that this particular location that I always see a lot of workers in the background, but there's always only one person making orders. There should be at least two to three in order to get those lines through so people don't have to wait as long. Also, I noticed that this location often isn't very clean. Workers should be taking turns to make sure that the place stays clean when I want to sit down in there and I have to clean the table myself. Other than that, not terrible.

    If I can give less than 1 star I would My daugher just ate at the Ithaca, NY location and there was a nasty big bug in her food. The feedback from the 800-chipotle line was terrible, she said she can’t give a refund. I called the store location, manager said can’t giv refund and when ask for his full name , he disconnected the call. Very disturbing and unprofessional

    I think there is a gas leak in this resturaunt because all the employees were stumbling around in a daze it took a solid 10 minutes for them to finish my bowl, by then it was all cold, the portions are also exceptionally small. Never go here.

    Went in for queso and a drink. There was no ice, asked the employee if there would be any ice soon, he said eventually and walked away. I went to fill up my cup anyways and the spouts were not on the soda fountain and it went all over me. I was not assisted despite going to the counter and asking for help.
