12868062, How often do you eat at Chipotle every week?
Posted by Starks dunked on Bulls, Thu Jul-30-15 06:48 PM
And whats your favorite go-to order?


After years of hating, I've jumped on the bandwagon.

I eat it like 2-3 per week. Chicken Rice Bowl. It cost $9 bucks but I know it should be $6.
12868068, 1x/week.
Posted by SoWhat, Thu Jul-30-15 06:54 PM
chicken or barbacoa burrito or bowl. brown rice. both beans. all 4 salsas. cheese and lettuce.

my burrito is large. i don't like it when they skimp on the beans or the rice b/c the employees are afraid of my burrito. they scared it's gonna tear the tortilla. i almost challenge them to put a whole spoon of rice and whole spoons of both beans in there. and more salsa. and extra lettuce. most of the employees wrap the thing like they're scared of it. it often rips and i don't have them bother w/double-wrapping or dumping all of that stuff in a new tortilla - i can take it a little ripped. it's fine w/me.

i only eat there 1x/week now b/c it's so far from my office. i can usually only convince a coworker to drive me out there once per week. i'd go more often if it were nearby. and, of course, if there were a better burrito offered by any other joint i'd eat there and never have Chipotle again. but i can't find a better tasting, more filling burrito anywhere in the area. and if i had other lunch options that leave me full and satisfied for $7 i'd be all over that too.
12868077, Their burritos are cold, meh. Have you tried Qdoba yet?

12868079, i cannot stand Qdoba.
Posted by SoWhat, Thu Jul-30-15 07:19 PM
i've eaten there many times. i'd rather have a 7 layer burrito from Taco Bell than anything @ Qdoba.
12868085, qdoba is ass man.

12868082, Strangely worded question
Posted by Cold Truth, Thu Jul-30-15 07:29 PM
12868084, You eat there every week, but how often every week?
Posted by Ted Gee Seal, Thu Jul-30-15 07:32 PM
Seems pretty clear to me.
12868114, and if I don't eat there every week?
Posted by Hitokiri, Thu Jul-30-15 08:35 PM
it's horribly worded.
12868121, ...then don't answer the question.
Posted by SoWhat, Thu Jul-30-15 08:58 PM
12868328, No, you crunch the numbers and give a decimal point answer.
Posted by Teknontheou, Fri Jul-31-15 08:58 AM
So for me, I might eat there 6 or 7 times a year. So my answer would .1346 times per week.
12868083, I appreciate their non-GMO pledge and the sofritas option.
Posted by Vex_id, Thu Jul-30-15 07:30 PM
So I do visit them every now & then if there aren't any better options.

12868087, 2-3 times per month
Posted by DJR, Thu Jul-30-15 07:39 PM
Chicken burrito with brown rice, black beans, mild, guac, and lettuce is my standard order. Occasionally I'll go with sour cream and cheese instead of guac.
12868092, 1 or 2 but not every week.
Posted by Atillah Moor, Thu Jul-30-15 08:08 PM
12868115, Maybe once every two or three years
Posted by ConcreteCharlie, Thu Jul-30-15 08:46 PM
But I live in an area with all sorts of ill Mexican food

When I do I get two or three steak tacos and call it a day.
12868635, see my thing is i dont go there when i want mexican food
Posted by GriftyMcgrift, Fri Jul-31-15 12:14 PM
because i dont equate grilled meat, rice and beans as "mexican" food

its just food
and its not greasy and bad for me



12870100, eh there are better options for that too IMO
Posted by ConcreteCharlie, Mon Aug-03-15 11:28 AM
it's not disgustingly greasy (though King Taco is and that shit amazing, B) but it's not good either. it's just dry, sparsely portioned chunks of meat and garden-variety veggies.
12868116, I'm burnt out. Was killin em about 2 years ago
Posted by Beezo, Thu Jul-30-15 08:49 PM
Haven't been in months
12868117, 1 a month. but prolly 3x a week when they build this one near my house
Posted by BrooklynWHAT, Thu Jul-30-15 08:53 PM

I don't like Chipotle.

Hand't eaten there in a couple years, I think.

But even I couldn't pass up this coupon.

Like $7 for two burritos big enough for a horse.

Posted by teefiveten, Fri Jul-31-15 09:02 AM
i need to stop going there when i want to eat 'mexican'

because then i'm disssatisfied

once i get over that i'll probably go more often

there are two by my job. one's line was OUT THE DOOR. lol. it's consistently like that during lunch hour. mcdonalds cakin
12868346, 2x a week on average
Posted by Deebot, Fri Jul-31-15 09:14 AM
there's one literally two minutes from my place. I'm not the biggest fan, they are overpriced (double barbacoa bowl was $11.23) and a cheap company (many workers are stingy with the meat portions because they're told to be), but it's the best fast food option without getting fat. I get bowls, not burritos.
12868347, 1/month - Sofritas bowl with that Guac tho
Posted by soken, Fri Jul-31-15 09:18 AM
12868348, Where I live, we have these places called taquerias

12868648, and they have beans and rice and flour tortillas
Posted by falafel stand pimpin, Fri Jul-31-15 12:20 PM
and various salsas and cheese and guacamole
12868350, Probably once a month to be honest....
Posted by StephBMore, Fri Jul-31-15 09:19 AM
my fav order:
3 chicken soft tacos (flour)
Hot salsa
tomatoes
lettuce
sour cream (on the side if I'm taking it to go)

straight forward. with a coke.

my mom gave me a $50 chipotle card. I was SO cakey.
12868375, i never eat at chipotle every week

corn
cheese
sour cream
and lettuce

12868538, Used to be once a week when I worked downtown
Posted by sectachrome86, Fri Jul-31-15 11:10 AM
Chipotle one day, Illegal Petes (a local and superior burrito joint) another day to mix it up.

Now though probably once every 2 weeks.

Chicken burrito (Barbacoa or steak if I need a change. Their carnitas is wack)
black beans
white rice
pico
sour cream
cheese
corn



And now I'm getting Chipotle tonight.
12868545, this post makes me want a veggie burrito now
Posted by BabySoulRebel, Fri Jul-31-15 11:15 AM
extra brown rice
extra black beans
hot salsa
extra guac
THASSIT
12868547, Once or twice a week. Chicken burrito bowl
Posted by Ishwip, Fri Jul-31-15 11:16 AM
Brown rice, black beans, sometimes cheese, eff vegetables. I used to like it with sour cream, but it overpowered every other flavor in the bowl so I stopped.

12868549, once or twice a month
Posted by shygurl, Fri Jul-31-15 11:17 AM
I had to cull it because when I first got the app I found myself going multiple times a week. Shit made it too easy to buy and have the food ready when I wanted it.

12868592, 0
Posted by infin8, Fri Jul-31-15 11:47 AM
chicken burrito, rice no beans, avocado, sour cream, cheese, spicy salsa.
12868606, I have not been inside a Chipotle since 2007. and it was underwhelming.
Posted by Nodima, Fri Jul-31-15 11:51 AM
it was first weekend of freshman year of college and everyone at the orientation outdoor picnic got one free chipotle wrap or whatever, so I went and waiting in a line that stretched all through downtown and probably waited about an hour and a half for this thing, took a bite and was neither impressed nor disappointed. it was just food.

12868655, ^this. I work close to a Chipotle, but I also work close to taco trucks
Posted by IkeMoses, Fri Jul-31-15 12:24 PM
and burrito stands which have better food for cheaper.
12868665, guacamole is like adult baby food
Posted by SimplyHannah, Fri Jul-31-15 12:35 PM
And will never see what you all see in it lol. Mushy and bland.
12868734, once a week. crispy steak tacos is the way to go

12869578, I get the kids meal. Nice, filling meal for $5
Posted by MizClayton, Sun Aug-02-15 03:36 PM
don't need a big ass burrito

how often I go depends on my mood

there are weeks I go every day

then sometimes I go months without it

I haven't been in over a month



12869683, at peak, 2.5x a wk. then i bought some stock in it

although they are a good option for chips and guacamole...
12869831, i use to eat that shit like everyday
Posted by musiclover86, Mon Aug-03-15 03:03 AM
but chiptole has fallen off in my opinion
it was the shit like 5 to 6 years but like in the last 2 years they've fallen off some kind of hard to me

but what i get when i go every once and a blue moon is this

chicken bowl or chicken burrito

- black beans
- white rice
- corn salsa
- salsa verde
- sour cream
- lettuce only if it looks fresh!

and sometimes i get guacamole

and if i don't get the chicken bowl or burrito, then i get a veggie bowl or burrito the same way i get my chicken order only without the chicken of course lol

12869939, I rarely eat at Chipotle
Posted by BabyYoda, Mon Aug-03-15 09:09 AM
I don't like the fact that they serve lukewarm to cold food. I like my food served to me hot or close to it. They items are pricy and they put too much condiments on my tacos and not enough meat. Rather go to El Pollo Loco or Juan Pollo.
12870055, lukewarm to cold?
Posted by SoWhat, Mon Aug-03-15 10:45 AM
where dey do dat at?
12870078, The one near my job
Posted by BabyYoda, Mon Aug-03-15 11:10 AM
Every time I went to Chipotle, my food was either ice cold or severely lukewarm to cold. To me, that is a deal breaker.
12870080, i've never had that happen.
Posted by SoWhat, Mon Aug-03-15 11:12 AM
largely b/c the food is prepared right in front of me and scooped out of heating dishes....

but as i said below i also tend to eat there during the lunch rush when there's regular turn-over of food. it's not uncommon for the meat and/or rice to go right from the kitchen to my burrito.
12870077, that's why i rarely eat in the restaurant. but i'll get it and take it home
Posted by MrThomas43423, Mon Aug-03-15 11:09 AM
throw it in the microwave for like 1:30 and let the cheese get all ooey and gooey, and then it's piping hot and perfect.

it's true what they say...people are strange, when you're strangers.

12870079, i only go at lunch rush
Posted by SoWhat, Mon Aug-03-15 11:11 AM
so the food is always hot since there's so much business then. i guess that's why i'm puzzled to hear about Chipotle serving lukewarm food.
12870048, Per week? I'm old school cheap. once a month or so.
Posted by Lach, Mon Aug-03-15 10:39 AM
I don't believe in eating out that often for that kind of food.
12870072, not every week anymore
Posted by lfresh, Mon Aug-03-15 11:06 AM
since the job moved

so when the weather is decent i take the walk up about 8-10 blocks

i'm more likely to cop dinner from the taco truck by the house on the way home now

Posted by Wonderl33t, Mon Aug-03-15 11:39 AM
Chipotle is cooked meat with fresh ingredients in a tortilla...it's not trying to be Mexican food. IMO it should not be judged as such. I know the slogan is Mexican grill. They know and everyone else knows it's not Mexican food.
