What an experience!
I wish I could put 0 stars for service. I walked in asked for a bowl. The woman asked what type of rice. I said white 3 times but she proceeded to not pay attention. Then I ask for steak. She skimps out and i say can you please add more. She proceeded to get one piece and put it in the bowl as I told her she barely put a scoop. Then when we get to pico, is when the fun starts AND ENDS. She puts half a scoop of pico. I mean who skimps out on pico!!! I ask for more and she forcefully and sarcastically covers my whole bowl in pico. At which point I walk out for the disrespect and lack of customer service.
Chipotle let’s get it together! In this economy there is no space to be acting like this. Your stock is down almost 50% in the last year!

This chipotle is SO GOOD. And I'm picky about which locations I frequent as chipotle is a weekly dinner choice for me. Food is ALWAYS hot and fresh. 10/10 would recommend!!

.. been a minute since eating at the Chip.. was surprised how small the portions have gotten. Price increase and smaller portion? 🤔 taste is standard, but i give 3 stars for the size. Maybe the BOD of the corp consider a large and small size and charge accordingly?

Dirty tables, especially the condiment area with no sauce, napkins everywhere, wet counter tops with food debris. Been coming by here for years.
