Honestly if you don't order online they could care less about you. Line almost out the door, and they make more togos then peoples in the store. Never spent 35 minutes in a Qdoba before.

I thought I ordered a large drink with my meal and asked one of the staff about it. He verified that I actually ordered a regular drink with my meal and gave me the large drink anyway. It was my mistake and he was so nice about it!

I ordered 2 bowls for delivery. I only received one bowl. I tried calling the store for over 4 hours and no one ever picked up. I filled out a form online and sent an email and here I am 3 days later and no response. Apparently I'll be out my money. Never ordering delivery again!

Probably the worst customer service I’ve experienced. I am the only person in the queue to order and they don’t acknowledge me for 5 minutes and tell me I have to wait while they do about 15 online orders before me. I just walked out…
