I love Mexican food. I would definitely pick a Mexican dish over an Asian dish any day (unless it's Orange Chicken from Panda Express). But Chipotle isn't "real" Mexican. I guess I just really enjoy eating their burritos. Spice is the variety of life. Also, try substituting for their bowls and add the tortilla on the side. read more

I called Chipotle to find out if they serve organic food, and was told that what they serve is organic or natural. Yesterday, I ate there and asked about the corn salsa. It is GMO corn, and I can't believe that a restaurant that says it is all about healthy, natural food is serving GMO's. I would like it a lot more if there was no corn salsa and Chipotle's was not feeding us food with ingredients that will negatively impact our health. I like their food and the premise that it is healthy. Chipotle needs to clean up your act and serve only decent, healthy food to your customers, if that is what you are going to call it. read more

Worst chipotle I have ever been to. Only reason I come here is because it's conveniently located next to trader joes and ralphs. To me, chipotle is about a filling healthy meal. At this location the portions are small, is the owner asking employees to be stingy? And the last time I went the employees picked dropped fajitas on the counter and put it back in my bowl! This is the last time I come here. Next time I will make the trip to the chipotle on genesee. read more

Stingy with the meat! Even when I had ask for double meat, I ended up getting 2 half scoops of meat. Otherwise, tasted the same as any other. read more

Staff was great but this was definitely the smallest chipotle burrito I've ever received. I eat chipotle all the time but wont come back to this one... read more

My husband and I eat here about once a week. The meat is all corn fed without antibiotics and hormone growth products. It's similar to a fast food subway but mexican food and much faster. The food is great, they really know what they are doing. Don't let the lines discourage you, they move very quickly. read more

Great place to eat. Nice friendly service but the only downfall is hard to find parking during rush hours. Would recommend parking a block away to walk there read more

I really do like this chain especially for the support of cage free chickens, local farmers I'm in. The food always has tasted delicious. My only dislike is the food is never hot its barely warm. I personally like my food hot. I rather have it to hot and have to blow on it or wait for it to cool down. Food doesn't get hot as you wait but it can cool down. You feel me read more

I was pleasantly surprised by this "chain" Mexican food place. Its not "authentic" Mexican food but it hits the spot, especially in La Jolla (there aren't any good Mexican places I know about). This is a good place for lunch but avoid the lunch time rush (usually from 12-130), the line can get crazy long. My favorite is the veg fajita burrito, which comes with rice,black beans, guacamole and grilled bell peppers and onions. You can then add your choice of salsa, corn, lettuce, cheese and sour cream. Becareful though, the burritos get quite large and can be messy once yuo get to the end. read more

I used to love this place in college. I came here afterward and I seriously hate it. No more free drinks for college students. Food is mediocre at best (I don't know what I was thinking in college). This particular location gets 1 star because of the parking lot. The parking lot here is such a joke. I see accidents here every. single. time. This time? Some lady almost hit my car. Don't go here unless you can walk from UCSD, even then... just go someone else! /rage read more

i have a few complaints about this place... - the service is bad. they people are rude. they dont even speak to you. and if your ordering your food they get pist. wtf?? -when did they get rid of the student hook up??!! boo to this place!! we're students!! your right next to our school!! hook it up!! other than that... 2 stars because the fajita burrito bowl is that good... with gucamole and sour cream... which they charge 1.50 extra for which isnt cool either read more

I like how their meat is grass fed and definitely love the fact that the line (if any) moves fast. the food is delicious, healthy and satisfying. The staff members are very friendly, polite and quick on their feet. I remember the first time I saw their sign, I couldn't even pronounce it but today is part of my weekly vocab. we go there practically once a week and not get tired of the food, because what ever you get, always taste good. the place has always been clean from the bathrooms to the tables and floors, every time we go there. read more

Actually disgusting. Ordered two chicken burritos and they both tasted like dirty sink water. On top of that, the chicken was burnt -- how does a franchise this large manage to mess up grilling chicken? I tried to call several times but nobody picked up. read more

I like this location because even during the lunch hour it's never too packed. They have a wide open seating area with plenty of seats. The employees here are very friendly and helpful. The line moves very quickly and it's always very clean! read more

I use to always eat chipotle in high school until I found out each burrito had over 1,000 calories and then I quickly stopped eating here... . It's weird though because all their ingredients seem super fresh and healthy that you wouldn't think you're consuming that many calories. Their chicken burritos are so delicious especially with the extras of sour cream, guacamole, and cheese... :o BUT, I have learned the healthier and slimmer way of eating at chipotle and have resorted to the burrito bowls or tacos. (Without the extras of sour cream, guacamole , and cheese ) Although not as satisfying, everything here is still yummmy. Sometimes when I'm feeling extra fatty, I order the chips and guacamole. The guacamole is super fresh and creamy!! CHIPOTLE FTW!! read more

Chipotle r00lz the world. Natasia K is an idiot. I go there for the calories and I don't think there is enough salt. And she skips the tortilla = 300 delicious calories...what a waste if you skip it! My regular order: Steak fajita burritos + black beans, mild, hot, and corn salsas and that's it, skip the sour cream and cheese. If you are getting tacos, you're a fool. The slad, not worth it. Burrito bowl...make sure youg et the tortilla on the side, and then donate it to me. In my experience, the people who work Sundays aren't as good as some of the week day people. They've had to double tortilla wrap mine once in a while = double good. read more

You've got to admire a simple formula that works. The burritos are enormous - perfect for eating half and saving the rest for later when you just want something light, and great for eating whole when you just want to ride a delicious wave of food. If you don't know how chipotle works, well, you should. You make a couple of simple choices and wind up with a delicious burrito, fajita, taco, or salad. I keep it simple and usually get either the burrito or the fajita. The simple assembly-line production means you get in and out even if the line stretches to the door. The ingredients are all very high quality, and they make a serious effort to procure natural and unprocessed ingredients, and everything is nice and fresh. My favorite burrito: rice black beans carnitas (braised shredded pork) tomato salsa roasted corn-chili salsa sour cream lettuce read more

My new favorite place!!!!! I am in love with the Steak Salad. The dressing is so addicting and the perfect measure of sweet and spicy!!! This is the cleanest and biggest location I have been to. read more

Maybe it's nostalgia or the way the hot salsa makes me feel all warm and fuzzy...but I just enjoy Chipotle in all the many forms the menu manifests itself into food for my belly. I almost always get a burrito bowl, and on a rare occasion a burrito, and carnitas or steak are my 'go-to' meats. Love the black beans and you can't go wrong with any of their salsas...the hot salsa being my addiction. The best beverage complement to my meal is always a Barq's rootbeer...I suspect because its got bite, and that is what I think you will be doing once you order from this delish eating establishment. read more

verry good food. I love this place it fresh fast unless some one like me is in front of you , you know the kind. I would like a mixed burrito no this hold the that and extra crap oh man hold the onions, They are so sweet to me. Good food try read more

Save your time and money. This location is one of the worst in San Diego. They always give me the smallest portions. I got half of spoon of rice and half a spoon of beans......the employees do not know anything about portion size....it;s an amount for a little birdy not an adult. I will never go back to this location again. I have given this location many chances but they are not improving. And the manager doesn't know anything!! He needs to step it up! read more

Here is my problem with Chipotle: the meat is always too spicy to go along with any salsa and then you end up with a pretty tasteless burrito. I do like the chips though, as they are mighty tasty with their lime accent. so i say 2 stars. also, there are so many great little taco shops in san diego that there is no way that anyone should be eating at a chain like this. read more

Chipotle is one of my favorite restaurants. Simple, consistent, tasty. All of the ingredients taste very fresh and are rich in flavor. For me, the guacamole is part of what sets it apart. Also, the 3-4 salsa are great. I think most folks that have an issue with Chipotle complain that it is an "Americanized" burrito...and not authentic Mexican food. To me, it does not pretend to be authentic Mexican. It is what it is...tasty, filling, seemingly healthy meal. read more

Good place to go to grab a quick meal. I like how you can just customize your burrito as they make it and the steamed tortilla of course. They have lots of options, good salsa, good guac, great rice! and free drinks for UCSD students :) read more

I always get the chicken fajita burrito with lettuce, cheese, extra pico and extra bell peppers/onions. With all the extra stuff it makes my burrito HUGE even though it doesn't seem like I really added much. It costs only $6ish & fills me up for an entire day, so yay! The only annoying thing is that you need to pay attention to the people filling up your burrito because they're very automatic sometimes and just put all the sides (sour cream, etc) in without asking. They should also bring back their free soda for UCSD students :( All in all, really good fast food burritos that actually seem healthier! read more

Now don't get me wrong, Chipotle can make a mean burrito, but a Chicken Fajita Burrito with Corn Salsa, Sour Cream, Cheese, Lettuce, and Guac is 70 g of fat!!! That's 111% of the fat you should consume PER DAY!!! And that exact same burrito has 3.6 grams of sodium. That's 155% of daily sodium intake! Well, on the bright side, that burrito has 12 g of fiber, which is 49% of the daily fiber you should be getting. read more

Although Chipotle isn't as authentic as mom and pop mexican taco stores, there's something about it that just makes you keep coming back. (Or maybe just because it's owned by Mcdonald's and their food seem to have that effect also) As much calorie as it withhold, I still love chipotle burrito bowls and hard shell tacos and nothing can stop me! read more

Compared to other Chipotles, this one SERIOUSLY skimps on the ingredients! Depending on who you get, but more often than not I have gotten some seriously weak burritos with only a tiny bit of rice or barely any meat. Of course it always tastes good, but Chipotle burritos are supposed to be huge! not skimpy! So it gets 3 stars because it is a Chipotle and therefore good, but for some reason this particular chain gets stingy with their ingredients sometimes. read more

Decent food, normal for a chipotle, definitely not the best I've had. The thing that struck.me most was how stingy they are! I had to ask 3 times for a decent amount of rice, and much more than that for more than a couple teaspoons of cheese and salsa. Overall decent, but chipotle has definitely seen better days. read more

Seriously fresh mex, steady rocking a chicken bowl w/ Guacamole, yeah! DJ Angie D straight rocking tacos con carne all day. Next door to trader Jose's read more

I have to say this location is more often than not SKIMPY on portions of chicken. They may want to rename the burrito to rice burrito with chick. The only remedy seems that if you come on off times. read more

I heart Chipotle and they all pretty much taste the same. I usually bounce between this one and the one in Costa Verde since that's near my work and this one is near my house. This one is always busier, although that's no biggie. The only thing I have to note and I have to agree with other fellow Yelpers, is that it seems the portions served at this location are a lot smaller than their other ones even when you ask for extra. I've also gotten a lot of fat in the barbacoa and carnitas. It's stuff I usually get at other locations but I always seem to get the fattiest pieces here. read more

I ordered two chicken burritos and they were disgusting! How can you mess up chicken?! They tasted really gross/old and were extremely burned, the whole top was black. I stopped eating it immediately! I ordered through DoorDash so I was unable to get a refund which is completely unreasonable! I will never order from chipotle again. read more

I love Chipotle, but I prefer other locations over this one. I have been impressed with chipotle for years, but things are changing. They dont deliver the product like they use to. This location in particular has really cheaped out. Tonight i grabbed a chkn burrito and a chkn bowl to go. My bowl was half the size that i have grown accustomed to and the chicken was hard to find.. My husband's burrito was about 90% rice and beans. His beans were undercooked. He didnt finish his burrito for the first time ever! On a good note, they didnt appear to be under-staffed as they usually are. I probably would have returned my food if had chosen to eat there but the dining room is usually dirty so I always plan on getting it to go. read more

Chipotle is good, but too overhyped. I myself feel that it deserves a three but I know too many people that love it. The barbacoa was really good. I think sour cream is a must. read more

Honestly a hit or miss. When my family came down, the employees all seemed to wake up on the wrong side of the bed. Portions were skimped and they all gave me attitude. However, typically the service is okay, nothing special. Nobody seems cheerful as they are at the other chipotle location near costa verse/utc. I'd say migrate over there and get the most bang for your buck, as well as a few sweet smiles. read more

While the food itself is what is expected, it was the customer service that really threw me off. I came here with my friend, and from the start we were shown attitude. We asked if a coupon we had brought was valid, and rather than answer us, we simply received a nasty response and dirty looks. The rest of the experience followed suit. Again, the food was decent, but the customer service ruined the entire experience. read more

Huge portion sizes for a small price! And I just love how I can get my food within minutes. Their guacamole is yum! This location isn't as busy as the one across from Westfield-UTC. Recommend trying it out. read more

Chipotle is chipotle. It's a fast food chain so their food basically taste the same all through out. Their portions are so much smaller then other places tho.. Like yo we're kids. We're already being milked empty for our education. You gonna try to rip us off too chipotle? read more

Worst chipotle. Avoid like the plague. The workers are rude and not welcoming and friendly. They're loud and don't give you what you ask for, as in asking for mild salsa and giving you hot. Overall poor quality, better to just go to another location. read more
