Great food, service is good too. Always get the burrito and it fills me up! Definitely suggest eating here.

Yummy food, plenty of seating. Very hard to find parking, be warned. Nice music in the store.

What can I say about Chipotle.... I love alll of them. I've never had a bad experience with the food. Never had a ridiculously bad experience with the lines (because there's ALWAYS a line). I'm loving that this one is a stone's throw from my job. I ordered the steak salad with brown rice and black beans and fajita veggies. My usual. This is the first time that I got bigger piece of steak than the usual diminutive 1/4" cube of cow. Not sure if it was the fact that they were rushing to cut the steak but I foresee it costing them $. But I loved it.... more meat, happy me! read more

Part of me is happy to see these new spots open in Newark while the rest is conflicted about the effects of gentrification on long time residents. But that's another issue. This chipotle was pretty busy when I got there on a Monday around 7 pm. There were some issues compared to the many other Chipotle locations I've been to. Overcooked/dry brown rice, overseasoned chicken, odd ratio of ingredients in my burrito bowl. Definitely a good option for dinner as most places nearby (aside from Dinosaur BBQ and some others) close early. I'm sure they'll work out the issues as they are open longer. I did like the design of the interior which was different from any other Chipotle I've been to. I imagine they get packed at lunch so maybe avoid those hours. You can usually find parking around here as long as there isn't a Devils game (you may have to look a little if you aren't lucky). read more

I have been to countless Chipotles and this is probably the worst one. First off, the portions here are a joke. I'm used to my burrito bowls being piled high with all the goodies. NOT at Newark. Its like they are trying to scrape together every last bit of food so that it'd last longer. Why you so stingy? Also, I went in one time and they had run out of guac... CHIPOTLE WITH NO GUACAMOLE?! How is that even possible? I have never walked out of Chipotle without an order of guac :( I will, however, note that the workers are friendly and very quick. The low rating has nothing to do with service. Management needs to step up their game! read more

I ordered a large guacamole and chips. The guacamole was old and the chips were over salted and stale. I was so disgusted. I will never eat here again. read more

The service at this chipotle was phenomenal ! It was fast, you were greeted with a smile and they were patient with you. A++++++++++ ! read more

Chipotle Mexican Grill - Mexican Near Me - Newark, New Jersey

For the most part this place is empty except unless there is something happening at Prudential. I can see why people steer clear. Working downtown it was nice to see Chipotle was soon to be a lunch option. Unfortunately most of the time I've come to buy my lunch when they scoop my chicken onto my bowl the chicken on the spoon doesn't make its way onto my bowl. So they are not only serving me "4 oz" they are serving me even less. I wish they would serve the appropriate portions. read more

I've been to a good 20 chipotles, easily the worse one. Empty at 7pm.. i ask to use the rest room before i place my order bc it was a long drive from NY. She points to the restroom then says the code is on the receipt. I'm like i realy have to go and I'm really going to order. NOPE. I had to order both my burritos squishing my legs together bc i had to go so bad. Ya should be ASHAMED that people can't use the restroom before they order like ya pressed for money. Not to mention the food was HORRIBLE. COLD like outside in NY smh, i was so pissed. Workers standing around and should be making sure the food hot! read more

Pro: Cheap dinner before a Devil's game. Cons: Small portions compared to other locations Dirty- they need someone on the floor to clean up tables after people eat Sometimes homeless people ask for money outside and inside the location read more

I'm very confused on why the recent reviews here are relatively low. Ive been to this Chipotle many of times and everytime I go the service is pleasant, they bang out even the longest lines, it's always super clean and the dine in area is spacious. The only complaint that I do have is they aren't necessary generous when it comes to portioning out the meat (I think it's a company policy thing). To prevent any tension I just ask for extra meat (which is an extra $2.15), but it's worth it. read more

This Chipotle isn't any different from any other one. Reviews I see are suggesting that the food quality is this or that. To me it's Chipotle if your ever been to one this one is no different and I myself love it. I always get double steak bowl and it's consistent with every other Chipotle I've been too. The young staff may be inexperienced but they do their best and aren't rude. Everytime I have a taste for Chipotle which is at least once a week it's comforting to know I have one in walking distance that I can rely on. read more

The two times I have ordered from here they have messed up my order and I ended up throwing the food away. Don't order from here!

Love it! Make sure you come when you're not in a rush; parking terrible & the line can be lengthy at times. Food is great; seasoned well, the staff is nice & it's atmosphere is pleasing. read more

Chipotle Mexican Grill - In the process of devouring :) - Mexican Near Me - Newark, New Jersey

Typical Chipotle besides the fact that every time I choose to eat at the restaurant a person come in soliciting. Plus, multiple times one of the staffers has got into in argument with a solicitor, homeless person, etc. I definitely think this location would benefit from having a security guard at the door or something. read more

This chipotle is always busy at lunch time! Right on a busy street of Newark, by the Prudential Center and Penn Station. I've ordered online for pick up. First time the machines were acting up so they made my order upon arrival. Second time it was ready but it wasn't an even amount of fillings for the burrito and bowl. read more

Yay! So happy there is a Chipotle by my job now :) The place was packed at 11:45am but they move quickly. Love their salads, medium salsa and guacamole. It's fast food that doesn't make you feel like a bloated whale and consistently good. read more

Worst experience ever....After waiting in line and having a "customer" accuse me of not being in the proper line, one of the staff behind the counter asked for my order; I told him what I wanted. When I moved down to pay, they inform me that my order wasn't prepare & to move down a few steps and give my order to the other useless staff member...I ended up walking out. Will never visit this establishment again. Very unprofessional people working behind the counter. read more

They gave me a free burrito bowl coz they messed up my original order. That's a very nice touch. Good job.

Food is fine however, this review is mainly for their delivery service. Chipotle delivers through DoorDash. My food arrived 30mins past the estimated delivery time, totaling my wait to 1.5 hours. Of course, the food was cold by this time. Delivery cost was $3.99, definitely NOT WORTH it. Might as well have picked up my food myself. Never using their delivery service again. Avoid at all cost. read more

Horrible Borrito! It was so SALTY I couldn't eat the whole thing. I muscled through a little less than half of it & I had to stop. The rice was salty. The fajita veggies were salty/over seasoned. The chicken was over seasoned. It was as if the person seasoning the food, forgot they seasoned it, and did it again to make sure. Very disappointed! read more

My favorite Chipotle to go to! I work downtown so this location is not too far from me. The girls there are great and very friendly. I go there so much that one of the girls already knows exactly how I like my steak bowl lol The food always tastes fresh and they never have a problem when you ask for specific items. read more

Very bad service. Placed an online order and a staff member ignored me after I gave my name for the order and I had to complain before someone attended me. My order was ready but no one took the one to get the bag. Very bad customer service! read more

Very disorganized Chipoltle compared to the rest I've been to. Boths times I went to this location I stood there for a few minutes before they realized I was there. The same goes for checkout too. Considering there are only several places to eat around there, I'd consider bringing lunch from now on. read more

Customer service may lag once in a blue moon but overall this is my favorite location. Parking sucks. You have to decide whether to feed your cravings or risk a ticket lol read more

The food is good. I went there while the company was having widespread food safety problems and didn't get sick. This location seems pretty clean. I don't like the neighborhood it's in, there are a lot of homeless people around. I've even had them ask me for money in the store. read more

Chipotle is Awesome! I would love to give a special Kudos to Carmena/Carmina(not for sure how to spell her name) and Julian. They were courteous, fast and efficient. They make me want to come back. read more

Pretty good. I wouldn't say it's GOOD, but pretty good. There's actually a place in my town with the same exact name but higher quality food. Same food, just a lot better. In fact, everything's pretty much exactly the same, even the interior design. I think it's pretty low of this place to copy another restaurant, but I guess imitation is the most sincere form of flattery. All in all, if you're hungry and wanna get away from the wife and kids (I sure do), it's worth grabbing a bite if you're passing by (to get away from your dreadful bitch of a wife and bastard children). Ciao! read more

Great location for events at the Prudential Center. Very convenient for a quick meal and pretty cheap. The staff is very efficient and fast. There isn't a ton of seating, so it can get crowded before big events. The door also creates a draft in the winter, so sit further in. read more

Can't go wrong with Chipotle!! There aren't many Qdobas in this area of NJ so if I'm not in the Short Hills area, Chipotle is a good alternative. This is a fairly new Chipotle and today was my first time going. I went around 12:15pm and surprisingly, for its prime location next to the Prudential Center, the Newark Community Economic Development Corporation and corporate buildings on Mulberry Street, I couldn't believe that it wasn't crowded. Maybe I'm comparing apples (Chipotle-downtown Newark) to bananas (Chipotle-34th and 8th). Nonetheless, I went up to the front, was greeted by great associates who welcomed me and asked me what I wanted on my salad bowl. The ingredients were fresh, well presented and the area was nice and clean. I will definitely frequent this spot but not so much....these $9 lunches add up! read more

Awesome new Chipotle ! love coming here for lunch, I hope they continue to provide excellent customer service and tasty burritos! They have a friendly staff and a very nice manager who runs the cash register! For some reason I think they're steak is tastier then the one by home!!!! read more

Great Chipotle, they give great portions. I've never been there when it was busy but the times I've been there, the line wasn't too long. Its very organized and clean. The Chipotle staff was great too, very nice and gave me extra sour cream :D read more

Even though the place was new the service was genuinely kind and great. Quality of food was the same as most of all the Chipotles I have been to so far in the metro NJ area. The only downside is finding parking that will be cheaper than your meal. We lucked up with a street parking spot (on the weekend) but when you're on foot, you don't have to worry! This location is easy to get to and another plus is the lines aren't bad at all! read more

It's Chipotle so there's no surprises; it's a chain fast food joint. Same basic menu, same reasonable prices. This location has been pretty good so far in my experience. I avoid this place when there is an event at Prudential Center; I don't understand why people are surprised when the service is poor during the time of an event! That seems to happen everywhere around here. And I've never been there during lunchtime. Overall it's a solid last resort (me and my girlfriend prefer to cook for ourselves, f fast food) read more

I went to Chipotle around 1 pm on a Wednesday. I was the only one in the line waiting to place my order. The young gentleman had no problem just letting me stand there and wait, while he continued preparing an order which was faxed in. Suddenly, he wanted to take my order, as I turned around three (3) white men just walked in to place their orders. SMH, IT WAS OK FOR THE AFRICAN AMERICAN WOMAN TO STAND AND WAIT, BUT NOT OK FOR THE THREE (3) WHITE MEN TO WAIT. I WAS ALSO ON MY LUNCH BREAK TOO. NEVER WILL GO HERE AGAIN!!! read more

One of the worst Chipotle's I've been to, the way they skimp on the meats at this location is laughable, even when you pay for extra meat they will try to put as little as possible on your plate, I was there for their grand opening and this was not the case then, but they have rapidly gone downhill since IMHO. read more

Place is really good. A lot of fresh vegetarian choices if you swing that way. I don't but there is plenty to satiate my carnivorous cravings as well. My kids love the quesadillas and my wife always gets the salad with beef. I usually get a bowl with rice, beans and chicken. The burritos are monstrous, I'm not a little dude by any stretch of the imagination and I can barely finish them! The lines can be really long around lunch and dinner, and parking can be tough but its worth the aggravation to get something tasty and healthy. read more

Been going to Chipotle for years. For the past year, everyone I go to, the food has become awful. For one, they always have a bunch of teens working who are clearly more focused on chatting than the food they're serving. They often don't hear me because they're distracted, as a result they'll put too much or the wrong thing on my order. Two, the food itself doesn't taste as fresh. Three, often the place is dirty, and the distracted teeny boppers behind the counter don't notice. read more

I was excited to see a Chipotle open in downtown Newark giving me another great lunch option. However, I'm on the fence about this location. I do love Chipotle burrito bowls at any location at all times but this place for some reason usually has undercooked black beans, nothing worse than hard black beans! Also, they give you way less chicken than they should. This location recently just opened and it's pretty crowded so maybe they are just getting into the swing of things. I'll be back to give it another try. read more

As far as Chipotles go this one is average and depending on when you go, below average. IMHO the meat is dry, many of the staff members do not know how to roll a burrito, and it seems there is no universal measurements for how much of each ingredient goes in. Also, the girls working the line try to do too much at one time. Pick a station and stay with it. All that being said, it's a different option, with fresh ingredients, and it's close to my house and job therefore I will continue to roll the dice and go. read more
