This review is for Chipotle in general.
The chicken is unbelievably salty—so much so that it feels like the seasoning ratio is one pound of chicken to one pound of salt. It’s so oversalted that it actually crosses into a bitter taste. If you’re hoping for a meal and not a fast track to hypertension, a heart attack, or a stroke, you may want to look elsewhere

Sadly doesn’t let me rate a 0. Went 9/13 after 8 PM and there was an abundance of delivery orders. The man that helped me was awesome but the only woman working was extremely rude to me. She also made me rush my order and ruined the entire experience for me. I am forced to go to this chipotle all the time because the next nearest is over a mile from me and this is the worst chipotle in America hands down. Every single time I go the workers are miserable and rude and make me feel bad for ordering. I am now taking my 2-3 a week chipotle meal to the further locations or having them deliver. I am over this place.

Most understaffed place on the planet. Been in several times and it’s always complete madness. Do better Chipotle!

I’m very disappointed with my experience today. After waiting an hour for my pickup order, I was given someone else’s meal. The bag was sealed, so I didn’t realize the mistake until I reached my destination — and to make things worse, I’m allergic to beans, which were in the order I was given.
The service was extremely slow, and no one seemed willing to help. It’s always a chaotic experience trying to get food there at lunchtime, but today was unacceptable.
