I go to many of these places and they are all top notch operations

AMAZINGAMAZINGAMAZING!!!!!!! so Flavorful.... U can make it just how u want it too:) and no. its not like regular mexican food. its way better. five stars isnt enough to rate this. it needs 10. People who think chipotle isnt good, have no taste in food... They prob think Mc Donalds the best or burger king or some horrible FF restaurant like that...

Good, but their portions are skimpy.

The food is good.  It could be better, but this is a chain.  However, it is expensive. Despite the cost, I don't think my friends (or anyone for that matter) should pay for it with plastic.  They really get your wallet with the chips and salsa.  I can understand charging extra for guacamole.  However $1.25 is too much.  It is nice how they try to be environmentally friendly.  In the end, I spend time in the john.

  Cheap, run-of-the-mill fake Mexican Food. Food from Chipotle raises my blood pressure for more than one reason.

First, it's overpriced. Baja Fresh gives free tortilla chips and salsa plus a burrito that's larger for the price of one burrito at Chipotle. The local non-corporate Mexican restaurant almost always has much cheaper, authentic, filling food.

Next, the ingredients always give me a heartburn. Very acidic ingredients are mixed in a tortilla wrap that isnt even toasted. Each ingredient comes in a rectangular metal container that was probably prepared in the morning and left to stew and oxidize in the air and light for the rest of the day.

And finally, the service is Taco Bell quality.

Flavorless food, or what I guess is supposed to be food. Institutional environments in the restaurants that bring to mind prisons or bank lobbies. The outlets of this chain in my area charge a higher price for their crappy fare than the local hole in the wall establishments hawking a much superior product. But, Americans are slobs who couldn't recognize quality if it came up and spit in their faces, so, they'll flock to crapatoriums like this, sheep that they are. Bah, bah...

The carnitas are great considering I can get it in about 5 mins.  The tortillas are kinda rubbery.  The salsa is great but a little spicy.  Living in CA, this is on the more expensive side for burritos. 

I love Chipotle's-I just wish we had one in the town I recently moved to.  I always got the chicken burrito bowl with guacamole...yummy!

Chalky Studebaker wins the ignorant comment of the year award. If you don't like Mexicans, stay away from Mexican food.

For what it is - a chain - Chipotle Grill isn't bad. I especially like their salad option. Good hot sauce also.

Chipotle is okay but I think it needs to be looked at by Immigration Authorities. Nobody speaks English. Mucho bad

I eat here almost everyday.

I eat Chipotle probably more than I should.  I really enjoy how everything they serve tastes both fresh and unique.  I also feel rather healthy after eating there.

Fair but overrated. The burritos are edible but not outstanding.

I like that their meat and veggies are organic, and they use partially recycled everything to build their stores. The tacos and burrito bowls are my fave. The margaritas are strong tho!

Really good food, and I simply love the rice. I prefer it on the side. The burritos are too big to eat in one sitting. There is a place here in Springfield Mo that I like a little better because of the salsas,  and Pork Pible; but I like the rice better in here, and Chipotle is open later, and on Sunday.

Yummy - if I'm bold enough to try and eat mexican fast food, this is the place I go. Really good chicken tacos, and I like that you can choose whatever you want to put into them.

they are pretty good. i love there tacos. well the shredded beef ones anyway.

My favorite place to go for tacos, even though there is a  taco bell across the street. Really good sized servings.

This place is great. Not in the mood for it all the time but it's great. The Chipotle where I'm at, i used to find wood chips in there.. Which was gross but I don't see any anymore. But the employees still laugh everytime I order guacamole.

This place ROCKS!! Best Guac around!!

It's very good, and the portions are just right- a lot of places give you either way too much or a skimpy serving.

DELICIOUS, so many good salsas, the corn salsa i the best. Try all the meats. Fajaita burrito is the way to go.

Kind of upscale for a fast food Mexican restaurant owned by McDonalds. They try and be environmentally conscious, letting customers know that their animals are treated fairly and they try to buy mostly organically grown beans. My favorite are the 4 hard tacos with pork, topped with the cooked onions and peppers, and some sour cream and hot sauce.

Servings enormous. Close to health food if you watch the cheese! This is a healthy, bargain lunch. Just wish one was closer to my office. Here in Texas the architecture features unpainted, rusting steel which is very cool.

The price and serving portions are a great value. I normally stick with the barbacoa.

I personally don't know a lot about Chipolte or who owns them and don't really care about all that anyway. I do like what they have to offer, but wish that they would offer a milder corn salsa as I love that, but my tongue can't take it! I live in a small city and we don't have Baja Fresh so can't really compare it to that, but it is better than Taco Bell, lol. My Hubby doesn't like Chipolte at all and says there is nothing special about them and they are overpriced so there ya have it on his word. There burritos are huge and hard to eat since the tortilla is soggy and chewy so I tried the burrito bowl with lettuce and I liked that better, but my co-workers are saying to get the burrito bowl and then get chips and you will be in heaven so I will be trying that the next time I go. I really like the pork the best too.

reel goooooood

where i live in manassas va, the burritos average about 20ozs. apiece ! ! ! . . .i manage to eat 2 at a time. it freaks the people at chipotle out when i tell them i eat 2 ! ! ! good stuff by the way ! ! !

Chicken was all burned, unedible.

Chipotle's food tastes fresh and tastes great. Their fajitas are to die for! However, I still wish they offered seafood. A shrimp or scallops fajita would be killer, and would draw me to their store a lot more frequently. Are you listening Mr. Ells/Chipotles execs?

Just to clear everything up. Chipotle was started in 1992 by one man named Steve Ells. McDonalds came in years later as an investor. Chipotle was not McDonalds idea. They have no control over the food, philosphy, marketing, etc. They have however helped Chipotle expand into many different markets. Many of the meats in certain markets are naturally raised - which means the animals Chipotle uses receive no hormones or steroids in their lifetime. Chipotle's culture is based on "Food with itegrity" and sustainable farming. They inspect their farmers themselves to ensure standards are met and the animals are treated humanely.

Very unhealthy for you if you eat a whole burrito, but man oh boy is it ever tasty! This is terrific food, and a brilliant idea by McDonalds. I won't touch a McDonalds with a 10 foot pole, but I'll eat at Chipotle once or twice a month if I can behave (even though it's nearly as bad for you). If you haven't tried one, you should ... that is UNLESS you are not good with disapline and might start eating there every day, which is easy to do. My only complaint: at our local restaurants, I feel like they always give the ladies more meat than they do to the guys! Once in a while a woman will make my burrito and give me a ton of meat, but usually they skimp on it (especially the dudes). Oh well - still more than I can eat in one sitting!

Very good food. You'd be surprised to learn that it's owned by McDonalds. It has good food, much better than Baja Fresh.

I love Chipotle, but I would like to make this stuff at home. Anyone know how to make the salsa's and the chicken? Yammmmmm...please help, only the real stuff counts.

I love Chipotle! My belly always leaves there happy! Friendly people, great food, not outrageously expensive...

So good I created a website dedicated to it over a year ago http://www.chipotlelovers.com

Rockin Burritos, awesome service and more than you can bear to eat. Totaly worth the $$. One more word GUACAMOLE!!! RaterX- Get it right! I work for them (Chipotle) and Mc Donalds IS only an investor. THX! Shenandoah52!

I was very pleased, one opened for the first time here, friendly employees, clean, tasty fresh inexpensive food. We will see if the standards hold up.

Purely Amazing!

shenandoah52 - yes McDonald's does indeed own Chipolte. Great fresh delicious burritos & tacos made to order by imported non-English speaking labor.

Fresh, delicious, great ingredients and great value. Love the naturally raised meats! And,FYI Micky D's does not own Chipotle. They are a major investor. Chipotle is still a private company.

The best five dollars you will ever spend at a chain. These burrito's are wonderful.

Overrated---and the place is owned by McDonalds, so don't let the healthy ads fool you. The burritos are EXTREMELY filling. The place is trendy, but that's about it.

Delicious burritos, would recommend any mexican food lover to try Chipotle.

This is fast food?

Oh Lord is Chipotle good. Their fresh made Burritos are the best meal that a person can buy for under 10 dollars. If it wasn't for my lack of money and my metabolism, I would eat at Chipotle every day.

Quite a varied selection, including their lowest carb choice, the burrito bowl, (especially if you ask for less rice). Four different salsas are available ranging from very mild to hot. Unfortunately McDonald's is not franchising, yet, apparently Chipotle must be profitable.

CHIPOTLE IS THE BOMB!!
