Chipotle Mexican Grill

Staff is very friendly and takes extra good care of your burrito! I get a barbacoa with everything and it cab get soggy with all the liquids. They poured the liquid into a to go cup before finishing the wrap and got me new foil. Two thumbs up!
The place could be cleaner, countertops wiped down and floors swept more frequently. Also wish they had sweet tea or sugar in the raw. Most Chipotles have that. Otherwise love the place!

This used to be my favorite location, but about 2 – 3 months ago, they completely flipped their entire staff, and the new crew is terribly inefficient. 3 out of 4 times now when I come between 4 and 7pm, there is an ungodly wait, with a very slow moving line. Here right now at 6:50pm on a Wednesday, and there are 24 people in line. Based on my prior experiences, I’ll be here for at least 25 minutes. Never used to be a problem (past 3 years) and not this type of issue at other Columbus locations. Food is solid as always, but becoming less and less worth the wait. Qdoba is calling and staffed better.

Great food when you need something in a pinch! I like that they source quality ingredients– Chipotle only thing close to fast food that I’ll tolerate.
I get the salad bowl with the tortilla on the side (the tortilla is free if you just ask). The dressing is so good!

Skip the guac, unless you don’t mind paying 1.95 $ for a spritz. everything else was pleasant.

This is a great Chipotle location. The people are nice, they don’t skimp on portions and don’t get mad if you ask for more or less of an item. I need to plan my days so I’m close to this location and can get a proper meal.

This Chipotle has gone downhill in terms of service. The food is still good but they rush you through the line SO fast and with an exasperated feel. I love fast but they are doing it wrong. The worst is the shorter, heavier white lady… might be an asst. manager. She makes you feel bad that you are ever ordering food… every time we’ve been. We haven’t been going as much due to the service.

My favorite fast place to eat! No matter how long the line they get you through in a jiffy and the food is worth the wait!

This is by and far my favorite Chipotle in town. It’s clean, the workers here are generally friendly and super efficient, and probably the best part is that there’s ample parking. The same cannot be said of the Chipotle down the street in Grandview. The only thing I wish this Chipotle had more of is outdoor seating.

The service here is always wicked-​fast, even when the line is out the door for lunch. Thanks for being an awesome place to grab a quick, nutritious and healthy bite to eat!

Good location, usually fast service. I think the ingredient quality of Chipotle has decreased though. Not sure if the compnany is doing something different now or what, but doesnt seem as good as when first opened.
Still eat here though when need a quick semi-​healthy option.

I love Chipotle, but I avoid this location. I prefer the one on Bethel because they are more consistent with their serving size.

Not a fan of cilantro? Ask for plain rice.
You can eat your face off and still tell yourself that it’s healthy (at least not processed, anyway).

Not a fan of Chipotle. Food is never hot. Tortillas ar always sticky. Cumin is used way too much. Sad excuse for Mexican food. I have never been able to understand the attraction.

Usually pretty slow, but friendly service. Be careful not to go when UA schools having their open lunch as the kids can back up and out the door. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating options, and ample parking.

Tasty and reliable, and the options that apply to vegans have increased in recent years, as well. For a while, the burritos I got here were always identical: rice, black beans, salsa, corn, guac… Always good, and always vegan-​friendly, but always identical. Then they introduced brown rice as well as white, and as of last fall, the pinto beans have been vegan whereas the previously were not.
Course I still prefer the black beans, but others may not, and options at a place like this are awesome.
This particular location is always speedy and friendly, even when the staff turnover appears to be fast food-​typical. And Chipotle prices can raise no complaints. Tortillas stuffed to the point of nearly bursting (but not quite… usually), burritos the size of footballs (small toy ones), and always with a consistent mix of flavors. Yeah. It’s good stuff.

I live within a block of the Chipotle location in Grandview (5^th ave & NW blvd.) but decided to come here because the parking at the g-​view location is terrible!
The Arlington location; although busy like most Chipotle’s, is very efficient at moving customers through the line.
*dont be dissuaded by the large amount of high-​school kids that patron this location… they usually don’t loiter too long.

Chipotle «inventing» the BOWL meal is as good as it gets. This is the simplest way of choosing whether or not I will feed, stuff or overstuff myself. And there’s always enough to save for the next day. Barbacoa! That’s my carne of choice but the plain pork or chicken does its service too. The fact you can (in order) get white or brown rice, black beans or pinto, 5 kinds of meat, grilled veggies/​peppers, pico de gallo, hot or medium sauces, sour cream, lettuce, guacomole, grated cheese… in one container rocks my TO-​GO world. I’ve only been to Chipotle one time when they had to refresh rice (takes 3 — 5 minutes); the food has always been hot. They truly deliver in my opinion. The staff has always been on the move… meaning they’re working hard to shuffle customers through their food line. One ding — chips are overpriced but if that’s a fix you need… you’ll be okay. Yes, Chipotle is a great stop for a take-​home. Did I mention price? It’s under $ 9 and the BOWL is two meals. The BURRITOS are humongus… I just won’t go there. TACOS (3) are delisssssh too.

This is a great location. There is ample parking in the Kingsdale parking lot, and the staff always seems to be having fun, leading to a nice atmosphere and friendly, efficient service. There is a lot of seating available in this one, and the restaurant and bathrooms are clean. The food is consistent with the Chipotle brand standards and delicious and filling. My husband generally goes for a burrito, while I opt for the burrito bowl. Combinations are endless, and we are also fans of the delicious and flavorful guacamole. Yum!

Well, how can you rate Chipotle any lower? It is addictive. The portions are huge. The chicken is off the hook. And if I could rate every Chipotle in the world I would. The service is fairly fast and there’s always ample seating, including outdoor seats. Great spot for lunch if you go to UAHS. All I remember is they had a Chipotle-​eating contest where if you finished 4 burritos, you got a free shirt or free burritos. One kid ate until he threw up!

I try my darndest to eat at independently-​owned restaurants and always felt a tinge of guilt going to Chipotle once a week. I can relax now. While McDonald’s was once the primary investor in this franchise, they are no more! As of 2006, Chipotle is back to being company-​owned (as are Donato’s Pizza and Boston Market). So, I can now get my massive burrito fix guilt-​free!
With that said, once you have the good fortune of living near a Chipotle Mexican Grill, it’s really hard to live somewhere you can’t get your hands on one of their big fat burritos! It may not be the most authentic Mexican food around, but the meat and produce is as fresh as it comes. hence their motto: «Food with integrity.»
From the start, the company’s philosophy has been to deal with local growers and use unprocessed, seasonal, family-​farmed, sustainable, nutritious, naturally raised, added hormone free and organic products when possible. This really shines through in the final product and flavors, which is why Chipotle remains über-​successful.
The Kingsdale location is quite often overrun with high-​school students, but don’t let the long lines scare you away. The assembly-​line service is usually very quick. Most patrons are pro’s at the protocol of ordering.
The menu is limited to a variety of burritos, tacos and burrito bowls– but you can have your toppings a thousand different ways. Just place your order at the counter and the line of servers will custom build a burrito to your specifications. Just pick your protein then walk them through the toppings, which include all the usual suspects: rice, beans, guacamole, sour cream, cheese and grilled fajita vegetables. Three types of salsa are available and each one is different and delicious.
Most of my friends go straight for «five pound» burrito, because they love everything stuffed into its overflowing shell, but the burrito BOWL is my favorite. The meat and veg are served in a bowl without the tortilla shell. Perfect for anyone watching their carb-​intake. (Do people still do that?). Trust me. Shell or no shell, you’ll get your $ 6 worth!
The soda fountain is serve yourself and this particular location offers a few different Mexican beers and bottled margaritas. There are a few tables outside, albeit overlooking the Kingsdale parking lot.
Chipotle is great for that quick meal on the fly and this location is clean, relatively spacious and the servers have all seemed very friendly. A great alternative to other fast foo.
