Because sometimes I like the feeling of being overly stuffed and taking a nap afterwards. Chipotle is one of my favorite places to binge - 2 burritos with everything on them, an order of chips and 2 orders of guac - Eat it all.

Fortunately I excercise a lot and don't eat like this often so my weight is in a good place.

I eat Chipotle at least once a week

Salad, no rice, no beans, fajita veggies, double meat (chicken and barbacoa), double cheese, a mix of medium and hot salsa. 580 cals, 26g fat, 11g net carbs, 76g protein.

If they had a downtown NOLA location, I'd eat it prob 2-3 times per week. That Soso's joint on Carondelet doesn't cut it.

No, no it isn't. Around 5:30 or so, the line at this place is 50+ people deep, easily. And it takes over a minute to get through the ordering process. A 20 minute wait at an extremely busy Chipotle is nothing.

That is exactly what I get but I just act for an extra serving of whatever meat I am getting.....and they never charge me unless I order on the app and half the time they don't then.

My wife won't go to the good burrito places around us because of the bad ingredients. So if she is picking burritos up for a quick, easy dinner, she goes to Chipotle. I have been getting their new Sofritas tofu in my burrito and its better than their previous vege burrito incarnations.

I go at 5:30 sometiems and there is never a line, much less 50 people.

plus i know from standing in line that the fire code says the max capacity is 69 people. I doubt there are 50+ people in line at your Chipolte.

If you are truly waiting 20 mins then you ruin the whole point of going

Yeah, I've seen one that looked like it had just opened, and the line was out the building. I went elsewhere but I can easily that being a 45+ minute wait, especially if the staff is slow or you have the annoying fricking "customers" asking for extra everything and everything on the side in to go containers.

I know, I cringe when it happens, because I know I'm gonna stand in that shite.

But, I assure you, the line is 50 people deep. It wraps from the counter, past the front door, hugs the tables along the wall and almost ALL the way back to where you pay. And it's the biggest chipotle I've ever been in.

Only hot sauce in the joint is Tabasco.....that tells me how out of touch this place is. I'll leave it for the Indians and lulu lemon broads

Never been to Chipotle, but I do this at Izzo's and Five Guys on the occasions I go there. I'm blind and short, so pointing through the glass isn't normally very successful for me. Plus I always seem to find things on the online checklist that I don't notice in person.

The burrito place near me has this, but they make you call them to confirm. For some reason this irks me.

Seriously what's up with that?

I recently went to this burrito place called California Tortilla (it was great) and they have 75 different hot sauces for you to choose from. They have a whole wall where you pick what hot sauce you want.

No you did not wait 30 minutes to get your drinks. If you did you are an idiot for not flagging someone down.





I like reviews like that: "We sat there for 20 minutes before anyone came by. The hostess just sat there and looked at us. Then it took an hour to get our food."
