- NFNoah Fate-BolognoneFeb 8, 20265.0Have been here multiple times at OU. Always great food and great service
- TSTaylor SuggsFeb 8, 20265.0First time ever at a QDOBA. We’re in town visiting from Alabama. Definitely much better than our Chipotle lol. Both the staff and the Surf n Turf bowl were great! They did great loading up all the toppings on both of our meals. Will definitely come back!
- KKKFeb 3, 20265.0Fresh ingredients, friendly service, and delicious queso!!!
- MMMamonaJan 11, 20265.0It’s in downtown Athens …It’s a beautiful quiet place and the staff is very nice. They have outdoor dining too. It’s really affordable and the food is good I’ll recommend hot and sweet chicken for sure.
- SFSammy FDec 10, 20251.0They short changed my daughter’s burrito because she’s small. Her and I get the exact same order and mine was a solid 1/3 larger than hers though made by the same guy. We got our takeout home and I pulled it out and my husband laughed at how small it was. I paid for an adult sized burrito so I expect an adult sized burrito. Half sized scoops because she’s a small 10 year old are inexcusable. We didn’t order a kids meal, they don’t even have a burrito available on the kids meal. Besides she can eat an entire burrito and finish what I don’t eat of mine. I’m going across the street to Chipotle from now on. They might charge for quac but they haven’t short changed us 1/2 a burrito when we go in.
