I visited the Closter Plaza location today (May 6th, 6:30 PM) with my children, and it was the single worst dining experience of my life. This place is consistently filthy--as my photos show, the floors and tables were covered in trash, and the food preparation area was a nauseating mess. It is a severe health hazard, yet the staff's behavior was even more revolting. The environment was chaotic. The music was so deafeningly loud that my children couldn't even place their orders properly. Furthermore, there was a severe communication barrier at the counter. When we found out they were out of soft tortillas, my kids were hesitant because the hard shells are far too salty for them. While I was calmly asking about substitutes, a cashier who wasn't even involved in our conversation suddenly barked at us, "Hard shells only, THAT'S IT!" It was incredibly offensive to be shouted at for simply seeking an option for my children. When it came time to pay, the incompetence was staggering. The cashier failed to process the payment correctly, rudely rushed me, and even forgot to provide a receipt. When I asked for his name due to his extreme rudeness, he literally laughed in my face and claimed he was "not allowed" to give it. Not a single employee wore a name tag, smugly citing a supposed "Chipotle policy." The beverage station was a total disaster. As my photos show, the Agua Fresca dispensers were empty, and the area was littered with trash. It is fundamentally dishonest to sell drink cups when there is no intention of refilling the machines. When I requested a refill, that same employee deliberately mocked me, repeatedly asking "What drink? Which one?" despite the empty dispensers being right in front of him. My children were forced to eat salty food with empty cups while the staff ignored our needs and joked among themselves. This appears to be a chronic issue, as I saw many other customers sitting with empty cups they had just paid for. The manager was the absolute worst. He kept his back turned to me and only addressed me after I repeatedly demanded his attention. He offered no apology and dismissively claimed the employee was just "doing his job." He is dead wrong. An employee's job is to provide professional service, not just bark facts. A professional would have said, "I'm sorry, we're out of soft tortillas, but you can purchase a regular one as a substitute." Instead, he gave us a "take it or leave it" attitude. The manager's inability to distinguish between "conveying information" and "being hostile" proves that the leadership here has failed. He tried to excuse the behavior by saying everyone has a "bad day." Let me be clear: My family was having a wonderful day until we stepped into this restaurant. Your staff's hostility ruined it. No one visits a restaurant hoping to be treated like a nuisance in a filthy environment, but if that is what you are looking for, this is the perfect place. I frequently visit the Englewood location, and the contrast is staggering. That branch is always clean, professional, and kind. Ultimately, the quality of a store depends on the manager's competence. Reading other reviews, it's clear this store has been hostile for years. This place has no intention of changing, and frankly, I don't think it's even capable of it. read more

Standard chipotle experience - bowl was sufficiently filled and meat/rice/topping quality was on par with what I've come to expect from Chipotle. Got a side of chips and guac too - a bit light on the chips compared to what I used to get a few years ago (its been a while and I had a craving), but definitely still more than enough to satisfy one person. read more

Unsure about returning here again compared to the other locations mainly due to quality

I have been to this store couple of more times in past month. Recently it has been cleaner and organized than before. Both times I did take outs. For the first time, someone stole my order from the store. So after multiple checks, the staff decided to make me a new bowl. Second time I had no issues, since now they started keeping the orders in the back. Food was decent. They started putting to put large portions in the bowls now. read more

I'm convinced this place hates me. Consistent on small portions, where even the cashier doesn't think you got double meat. If you door dash be prepared for even smaller amounts OR what I just had, someone else's order inside the bag with my name on it so they take extra steps to mess up. Go to any other Chipotle, I've tried so many times to let this location fix itself but they don't care. read more

Worst service ever. I've seen many chipotle but this one takes it all. Wow rude service rude workers don't speak English not engaged. Don't wear name tags. What a shame how these employees don't care or give a crap. read more

Dear Chipotle Customer Relations, I am writing to file a very serious complaint regarding the unacceptable and unprofessional behavior of the store manager at your Closter, NJ branch on October 8, around 6:30 PM. I was dining in the restaurant with my two young children (ages 7 and 2). While eating, I placed a separate online order for chips and guacamole because my son wanted more, and I could not leave the table unattended. A few minutes later, I went to the front to check on the order. The manager told me that online orders have to wait, even though there was no one else in line and three employees were available. I returned to my table but checked again shortly after, and the manager said the order was still not ready. I politely asked if one of them could simply hand me the guacamole since I was already in the store, with no line and two children waiting at the table. Instead of helping, the manager insisted I had to wait for the online order to be "packed," showing no common sense or flexibility, especially considering I was physically in the restaurant. What happened next was absolutely unacceptable. Both the manager and the cashier began laughing at me in a mocking way. When I asked the manager for her name so that I could report her behavior, she flat-out refused and said, "No, I'm not giving you my name." I told her it was her responsibility to identify herself when a customer requests it, but she kept refusing -- laughing together with the cashier, almost as if they were trying to humiliate me intentionally. Then, when my 2-year-old accidentally dropped her cup on the floor, I simply asked for a replacement cup. The manager said "No, because you are rude." When I asked the cashier for a new cup, she held it out and said "Say please." I was stunned. When I reached to take it, she snatched it back out of my hand. I was left speechless -- as a mother, as a customer, and as someone who has never experienced such blatant disrespect in any restaurant. This was not "bad service"; this was bullying and humiliation from employees representing your brand. To make matters worse, this is not the first time I've had an issue with this same manager. About a month ago, she overcharged me nearly $10 for a kids' quesadilla meal by claiming that adding chicken was an "extra $5," which was completely incorrect. This shows a clear pattern of incompetence and disregard for Chipotle's policies and customers. That evening, while my children were watching everything unfold, I felt completely powerless and disrespected. No mother should ever be treated like that in front of her children -- in any restaurant, let alone a major company like Chipotle. read more

Just went to the establishment they did not have any meat available. When asked how long the meat would take. The representative said anywhere from 30 to 45 minutes. I then tried ordering a quesadilla and they said they didn't have the correct size burrito. Was unable to assist me with giving me a regular size burrito And then said you need to go online and order while I was standing inside the store. horrible customer service. read more

If I could give 0 I would, the service and workers were so rude and when I asked for chicken, they gave me a max of 5 pieces and expected me to pay for it. Respectfully, worst chipotle I've ever been to. read more

The chipotle itself is poorly managed and not clean. Food everywhere, even the serving area had food laying everywhere. Today when I went they had no honey chicken, corn, tomatoes, vinaigrette, nothing. Genuine waste of my time. read more

Staff was very friendly, bowl was ready when I picked it up. The gentleman by meal prep was happy to give me as many vinaigrettes to match the quantity of my order. read more

WORST CHIPLOTE IN THE USA the portions are sooo little and if you protest they ask you with a smirk " you want to pay for more ? " Will not recommend the going here..... period !!! read more

I placed an online order and when I went inside to pick it up it was not ready so I had to wait over an hour to get my order. Someone else who was also waiting said they placed their order for 1:10pm and they got it before me while I placed the order to be ready at around 12:45pm. Food was amazing though and the staff were very helpful to explain the issue. It was only a one time experience so I will buy from chipotle again but don't go when kids leave school because it was very packed with people and loud. read more

This Chipotle establishment is not clean to the point that if I ever have to go to the bathroom from their food (number 2) I would rather sshaart my pants than go take it in their bathroom. read more

I went to chipotle and the worker who was making my food got guac on his glove and did not change them so guac ended up on my burrito. He noticed that his hands were dirty and instead of changing gloves, he wiped them on his apron. This is cross contamination and a sanitary hazard. Won't be coming back. read more

Came to this location for the first time, and it was quite a different experience. At this location you can only order online. The majority of the customers there as well as myself had no idea until we decided to ask. It would have been better to have a sign stating that you can only order online. Once i placed an order online, it took an extra 15 minutes to get the order completed. If you're in a rush, I would plan accordingly if you plan to order from this location. The food I ordered wasn't bad, i just felt the chips were overloaded with salt. Maybe it was just a bad batch? read more

Chipotle Mexican Grill - Rice - Fast Food Near Me - Closter, New Jersey

Went there yesterday and was pretty bummed. I ordered three bowls and one was a vegetarian. I liked that you get guac, but that's it. It was the smallest bowl I've ever gotten. It's like they gave me half portions on everything, and I understand that I have no meat(which is why it may be smaller), but it was seriously disappointing. Now I know what not to order. The other two dishes were average, but the runner who was putting out the orders was nice. She was helpful and nice. She kept her distance, maintaining the 6ft distance rule m. read more

I really did not enjoy my chipotle experience this time around. They were out of tortilla chips when we got in which I've never experienced before, I didn't knock off stars because of that though. I got the pollo asado burrito bowl. I always get a bowl with no rice, black beans, pico, guacamole cheese and lettuce. I usually get steak as my protein but this time I got the pollo asado. The chicken tasted super off and I'm wondering if it was bad? It definitely threw me off when I was eating it. The rest of the bowl was also lacking any type of flavor. I usually go to chipotle in other towns but happened to be in Closter. It just tasted so unenjoyable that I actually ended up throwing my bowl out. I don't think I will be returning to this location. read more

Technically it is a Chipotle, but the online orders are never ever, ever ready remotely near when it says they will be. Usually about 20 to 30 minutes late. We've also had a 5 of 5 instances where food was missing... HIGHLIGHTS - Once they forgot the cheese on a cheese quesadilla - Most recently, we called to say they forgot the the kids meal drinks and the chips with our queso. They just said "oh, we ran out" lol. Probably a location to avoid. read more

Everyone I order from this chipotle I feel like it's terrible. I ordered here on Thursday and paid $3 extra for guacamole and for the tiniest bit of guac. The rice was freezing cold and hard. Also there were no utensils or napkins in the bag. I tried to submit a complaint in the app and got nothing out of it. I want my money back as that meal was not edible at all. I'm done coming to this location. read more

As nice as the employees are at this Chipotle, there is a severe issue with the cleanliness and sanitation of the establishment. I've been here a few times and it's always been a mess. I came here the other day and got a pretty standard bowl. Either the sour cream was not kept at an adequate temperature or the chicken was partially uncooked, but I'm dealing with some mild food poisoning right now. If you go to this chipotle, you only need to take one look at the line to see what I mean. It's an absolute mess. You have pieces of meat, lettuce, cheese, salsas and other garnishes just everywhere on the counter. I even saw sour cream in the guac, that's cross contamination for a dairy allergy right off the bat. I did come in pretty late, but that's no excuse for the way this place looked. I will say that the portions have been far more generous than I remember, but I'd rather not feel mildly ill for two days after eating a bowl. This will be my last time eating here. Go to the one in Englewood, it's far cleaner and has better management. Chipotle corporate, get a new manager or someone down here to get their act together. read more

Chipotle Mexican Grill - shitty - Fast Food Near Me - Closter, New Jersey

This Chipotle consistently gives extremely small portions. Far smaller than all the others I've been to in Bergen county. What makes matters worse is that when you ask for more they are extremely rude. This evening one server refused to give me more meat after serving me a small portion. I was so annoyed by his treatment of me that I turned around and walked out. Chipotle makes good food, but their portion sizing has gotten out of control. If you go into this store beware of rude staff and small portions. read more

For the love of anything. What happened to you chipotle???? We ordered delivery. Every order was wrong. Large chip. 7 chips in the bag? 7. Siete. 7 sheva 7 sichi. Unacceptable. They don't take phone calls DO NOT ORDER IN. You guys sold your stock and then just gave up. A sad memory of what chipoltle stood for. Shame read more

Horrific portions, seriously. Asked for double meat and I wouldn't even consider it a proper portion if i asked for single meat.

PISS POOR MANAGEMENT. I'm appalled by this location - they're consistently rude which is frustrating but manageable however tonight was next level TERRIBLE. I arrived to find an 'online orders only' door on the sign which is fine. I then proceeded to go back to my car to place the order and WAIT until the projected completion time. At that time I go back to the door where another customer was waiting only to be given a 'closed gesture' at 8pm....the store closes at 10pm. The other customer knocked again and this time the employee wasn't too lazy to come communicate with us. We were advised they were closed and he shut the door on the other customer as he asked how to get his money back. Not only did chipotle take our money and make us wait for no reason they did so UNAPOLOGETICALLY. Oh and the best part 5 of the employees were eating nonchalantly as groups of people pulled on the doors confused. Severely mismanaged. Disgusted with chipotle & never again. read more

My girlfriend and I went to grab some quick food there, and once we were given our food, we turned and noticed that a bomb must have gone off in here. It was disgusting! Every single table had garbage all over it, and not one table looked like it saw a rag and disinfectant in hours. The bench seats had food waste and trash all over them. You could see customers were using napkins to wipe garbage on to the floor, and all the napkins holders were empty. The trash cans were overflowing, and customers were putting their trash on the basket return spot because they had noplace to put their trash. We ended up using paper towels and some hot water from the bathroom to wipe down a two person table and the seats, and left. We're now planning to br future loyal patrons of Moe's in Northvale. read more

I've had numerous bad experiences at this location and refrained from saying anything because I wanted to give them another chance. However at this point enough is enough. The staff is so uninterested in being there, they barely make eye contact. Don't listen to what you say to them and just throw your food into the bowl making a mess. I've had times where I got home and my bowl was dripping all over because they were so negligent. Today, I went and got a side of guacamole with my food, which we all know is extra! Fine, but I paid extra $ for guac that was already brown. I didn't see them scoop it since they had to get more from the back but when I opened my bag up I was truly disappointed. My other lack luster experiences include: messy/drippy bowls, rude/inattentive staff that don't listen to my order, missing food items ALWAYS check your bag before leaving this location because if you ask for anything on the side you probably will not be receiving it This is the only location that I've had issue with and I love chipotle and have been a regular for years. It's tough because I never want to return to this location but still want my craving fix so I guess I'll have to travel to the next location.. read more

Chipotle Mexican Grill - Brown guac - Fast Food Near Me - Closter, New Jersey

I have dined at various Chipotle locations since their opening for approximately 20 years. I have NEVER been the type to request extra meat and have never encountered any issues or complaints. Last week, I visited the Closter for lunch, and aside from receiving no greeting or smile, the lady behind the counter served me an incredibly meager portion of chicken that was both insulting and comical (if it weren't for the money I was spending). I politely asked her to add more, but it was evident she was irritated and replied, "Are you gunna pay for double meat?" I replied, "No, that's not a standard portion," to which she responded, "If you want more, you'll have to pay for double." Reluctantly, I accepted my bowl but was so irked that I waited until I arrived at work to weigh the chicken on my food scale. As a dedicated meal prepper and conscientious eater, I can discern what around 4-5 ounces of chicken should look like. As I suspected, she had provided significantly less (precisely 2.3 ounces). Poor service all around. I can see from other reviews that several others have had this issue. My new job is just a couple of miles away and I will not return. read more

Worst experience I've ever had workers are extremely incompetent make you stand in line just to tell you it's cash only with exact change never have enough food and give you a quarter portion will never be coming back this location ever again go down to el taco bar down the street it is much better quality food they'll give you enough food and the workers are competent food is regularly undercooked and raw probably the worst chipotle I've ever been to read more

We ordered 2 chicken salad bowls using our app during our Whole Food shopping trip. We got our order on time (at the promised time) on the tables readied to be picked up. We usually go to the Englewood location and were pleasantly surprised that this location used spinach instead of Romain Lettuce for the salad. That was the end of good news. My wife got ill 2 hours after the meal with stomach cramps, diarrhea, and vomiting continuously. I was fine with no symptoms. The culprit had to be her salad as that was all she had (with water) since lunch. She is still ill (5 hours after dinner). This was the first time we came to this location after frequent the chain for years - and will be our last time. If any of you had the same experience, please let me know. read more

I wanted to give 1 star but the best thing I would say about this place is how good their steak is. Now that this is out of the way let's get down to the nitty gritty. First things first, let me tell you my qualifications: I've been going to this chipotle for almost a decade and know it's history very well. Now here we go, before you even order a bowl or a burrito, the server is itching to grab a bowl for you. If you asked for a burrito by the time their hand is touching the bowl they give you a nasty cold look like you just ruined their already miserable day (this ofc depends). Proceeding on to make sure to give you the least amount of food as possible. This is probably because of their manager (stern looking hispanic lady who supervises the whole restaurant). By the time you pay and would like a drink you are met with the amazing news that they don't have water cups. Ever. I also have whistleblowers who've told me about them being forced to work overtime with no pay late at night. So what to do about this? My answer: go to the chip in Englewood. Might sound unappealing. But it's the best service and best portions you could ask for. Sometime they don't even include your double chicken/steak or guacamole. Have fun y'all. read more

Service -8263816/5 and food today -826723672/5. and i I ordered my normal togo meal which is a chicken bowl with tortilla on the side. (Tortilla on the side now 25 cents more just fyi) So i go to pick up and my bag feels extremely light so i check my order in the car and see that they didnt give me my tortilla. I go back inside to explain and this girl takes her sweet ass time to input stuff into the cash register only to call for the manager to deal with this issue. I even showed her my receipt on my phone which said I ordered the tortilla but the manager is like "you know the tortilla is extra now right" YES I KNOW AND ORDERED IT. And then she proceeds to wave her employee over to just hand me a COLD PREMADE HARD STALE TORTILLA. At this point i didnt know it was hard and cold and stale bc im just annoyed and in a rush but when I get home i realize they gave me hard, cold tortilla. Lol customer service SUCKS. And my meal is ruined. Thanks chipotle. I tried to also go on their feedback website but its not working on mobile or desktop and it keeps crashing. Does chipotle not value their customers feedback/input? read more

Service was ridiculous. I am military police and showed my credentials at checkout as I normally get a discount at every other chipotle out there. The staff not only denied me of my discount, but were absurdly rude about it. He told me I had to be in uniform, and said gave me an attitude about it. Why in the world would I show up to get chipotle in my uniform? I showed respect to him and his staff but received nothing in return. Respect your service members Chipotle. read more
