- MYMichael Yuricha2 days ago5.0The GM India was very welcoming and made sure we were taken care of with our orders very appreciative
- AAAsil AlsanNov 4, 20251.0They say it closes at 11 p.m. I came at 10 p.m. and it was closed. I came back for dinner the next morning at 1 p.m. and they were closed again. Waste of time. The shop is always closed. Don't waste your time going there.
- DVDhru VasramNov 3, 20254.0Such amazing staffs, everyone seemed happy and excited. I went to get my dinner on Halloween day & the staff had some cute face paint on with a gorgeous smile - Neissa made my bowl with such excitement and asked multiple times if there’s was something else I needed. The manager was at the cashier- she also made sure I got what I needed. My first visit was amazing, surely going back for some more delicious chicken Bowl- sauces were yum too. 👌🏻
- PHpalash holkarNov 2, 20252.0Taste changes a lot, no consistency Lot of time it depends on who is making your bowl, some gives more, some very less
- KYKate YountOct 26, 20252.0Qdoba is one of my favorite restaurants ever. The southside location is the only one left in Pittsburgh unfortunately. I go at least once a week. However the past 2 weeks were just bad. The usual staff that has worked there for ages was gone and replaced with all new staff that didn’t seem to know what they were doing. They could not roll the burritos. Portions were super skimpy. They tried to roll my brother’s burrito but it broke so they literally just dumped the whole thing on a new tortilla mixing it all up instead of just double rolling it. Despite the sloppy rolling, I started to eat my burrito and the rice was so undercooked it was crunchy and the cilantro was too over powering. The chips had so much salt, I felt my arteries clog. They were inedible. They didn't have the usual lime flavor. The person who I assumed was the manager was just constantly yelling at the employees for various things in full ear shot of the dining room. Finally, when I scanned my card for the points, the inexperienced cashier must have done something wrong because they didn’t go through. I hope this is just a temporary setback, I would be devastated to lose them completely.
