Camere here two weeks ago for Mexican with my gf and her mother. I got the beef burrito with black beans. Good portion, very tasty. The gf got a bowl and it seemed to also be alot of food with lots more green than in the burrito. I want to do a taste test with some of the authentic mexican joints down in Kensington and see where these guys end up. read more

While I like the type of place Chipotle is, and it's what I'd like to see more of on Yonge street instead of all the crappy shops no one ever goes to, I was still hoping for a bit more. This is essentially just a fast food burrito / Taco place. I'm amazed though at how organized, clean and quick the service is. Not many choices on the menu but that's not a problem and prices come out to about $8.50 for a burrito about 6" long. Alas to all my effort trying to open the burrito properly to their instructions printed on their napkins, I had everything falling apart halfway through! Generally thought I've had much better burrito's at places like Big Fat Burrito that have bigger, better burrito's for the same price. However I have to give them a big thumbs up for their chips and guacamole - I was absolutely craving some good guacamole and they delivered! read more

I hadn't had any Chipotle since arriving in Canada but after I spent the day moving I felt I deserved a treat. And I have to say it was a real mistake to remind my tastebuds how good it really is. I went back only a few days later :) I almost always get the vegetarian burrito (sometimes the bowl). I just like how it tastes all wrapped up in one delicious package. My recommendation (for real vegetarians) is to leave the peppers off because I find they taste like meat (probably cooked on the same grill). My old faithful is a whole wheat burrito with brown rice, black beans, mild salsa, cheese, lettuce and guac. Om nom nom. This Chipotle store itself is very clean and efficient. They get through the line quickly, you can usually find somewhere to sit and the tables are usually clean. They also have decent bathrooms which are helpful to de-burrito after you have finished. It is also in a good location near Eaton Center and Dundas Station. I find it surprising that a lot of Canadians haven't heard of Chipotle (they think you are referring to the sauce). I guess it isn't as common as it is in the states where you can throw a rock and hit one (kind of like Starbucks and McDonalds). The burrito I had at Canada's Wonderland couldn't hold a candle to Chipotle but my friend though it was awesome. It saddens me that people are wandering around thinking that is as good as it gets. Chipotle for the win! read more

PLEASE DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE. Food is full of salt and is way over priced. 10.50+tax??? Go to Burrito Boyz around the corner on DUNDAS. Chipotle is fraudulent company. read more

More like a 3.5 star rating. I once got violent food poisoning from eating Chipotle, but it had nothing to do with the actual food, just my stupidity. But I have yet to go back since that unfortunate incident. If I had reviewed this pre-food poisoning, it probably would have been a 5-star rating. I literally would crave the burritos. Soo good. I don't know why people think that this place is so "unauthentic", while it may be, it's damn good. Not that I'm an expert at what authentic Mexican cuisine is but I'm pretty certain that it's similar. I assume it's like associated ManchuWok with real Chinese food but what would I know. In any case, I love this place. The burritos are always the most massive things ever. Like a champ, I wolf down the entire thing, only to be left with the most massive food baby ever. But I never leave unsatisfied. Inside is the basic, wooden topped stools/chairs and metal counters/tables. There is a serve yourself drink fountain as well, you can purchse beers and margharitas! That's always a plus when eating a burrito. The one thing that I would recommend is that they grill the burritos after. Every other burrito place that I've been to does this, why does Chipotle not? All they do is press the tortilla prior to adding the ingredients, essentially just heating it up so that it's more flexible to stuff. To really top it off, put some grill marks on there and it'll be near perfection. I haven't been recently but apparantly the prices were raised $1, which is quite hefty for an already expensive burrito (it used to put you back $8) and if you factor in that guacamole is an extra $2, that'll set you back even further! I've always had a good experience here, even though I walk out with a double digit bill, I feel like it's worth every penny. I won't have to eat for another 5 hours and for $10 that's okay with me. I just wished that they stayed open a little later than 10pm, even on Fridays and Saturdays! Time to open up past 11pm, especially with all the bars that are popping up around the Yonge-Dundas area. read more

Chipotle is pretty decent. Gets the job done when you're in a crunch. I like how you can get the 'fajita' option, where the onions and peppers are fried up. I don't like that they just simply are NOT as good as burrito boyz. I can't get past the halibut burritos...SO good. read more

BEST. But then I am only reviewing one thing. Burrito - barbacoa with everything. Must have every time I go downtown. read more

I discovered Chipotle's in 2009 when a friend introduced me to it. Since then, I go whenever I want something quick to eat or get a craving for Mexican. If you haven't been here yet you should at least visit it once. I love Chipotle's burrito's they're are amazing. If you get just the burrito, bowl, or tacos about $10. Which is average for fast food these days. The portion size is very generous. Once they put in the everything in the Burrito it's huge. I do manage to finish a burrito, but I'm in that, 'I'm overfull uncomfortable state, but I want to continue eating because it so good.' I've tried both the steak, chicken, and barbaco burrito's. However, my favourite is still the steak. The steak is great because its actually real steak. The steak is juicy and has that delicious meaty flavor and is nice and tender. I also usually get them to add in the green pepper and onions as well, and just because I love it spicy I go for the hottest sauce. read more

Chipotle is a decent lunch or dinner option in the area, if you don't want to venture too far from Yonge Street. The food is always fresh and the service is fast and friendly. They recently simplified the menu to make it easier to order and this has definitely helped. Chipotle would get four stars in my mind if the food was hotter. Quite often my burrito or salad is cold by the time I start eating. I sometimes order off-menu and get the quesadilla, either with just cheese or adding chicken. Delicious and satisfying! read more

Oh Chipotle. My original burrito love. Chipotle is what started me on burritos back in university. If I was writing this review in 2010, they would be a 5 star establishment. However, when you compare Chipotle to places like fat bastard and burrito boyz, it fails to compare. I wish Chipotle would grill their burritos but I guess that would take away from their quick service/lunch rush mentality. They make a good burrito, I can't argue with that, but I'd go to other places before I go to Chipotle. read more

I got my typical Chipotle experience here. It was mostly full on a Sunday afternoon at 2:30pm, with a lineup for a good 40 minutes. The quality of my bowl was as expected of what I normally get at Chipotle elsewhere. This location provides free refills. Cash or credit only. read more

Writing this review might prove challenging as I will undoubtedly have to continually pause to wipe the drool away from my mouth....Just thinking about Chipotle makes me ravenous! I was introduced to Chipotle last year and ever since then no other burrito can compare! I normally get a chicken burrito with veggies, black beans, cilantro-lime rice, salsa, cheese and guacamole. I have never experienced anything quite like it! The stand out ingredients are definitely the guacamole and the cilantro-lime rice. Every component of the burrito is really fresh and well prepared. I think what makes Chipotle burritos so much better is that each of the toppings marry harmoniously together but also are distinct within the burrito. That might sound completely contradictory, but you'll understand what I mean once you try one. I've never actually eaten in the restaurant (I always get takeout) so I can't comment on service really. I can, however, say with complete confidence that they make the best burrito I have ever had. I know that there are a lot of die-hard Burrito Boyz fans, but in my opinion they don't even come close to the magic that is Chipotle. read more

First time visit to any Chipotle before. This place works like a well-oiled machine. It was super busy, but the line moved efficiently and still with good service. Their burritos are delicious! The tortillas are soft and tasty, and filled with lots of good toppings such as beans, rice, salsa, lettuce, guacamole, etc. read more

Chipotle is one of the best ways to get me to eat my veggies. Slop on some cheese and sour cream on tomatoes, corn and lettuce lying on a bed of carnitas, rice and beans, and sure, I'll eat my veggies. I choose the burrito bowl, because I don't eat food that needs to be held with my hands. You can get ALL the toppings, minus the guac ($2 extra) to have your bowl filled to the brim. One order of a burrito bowl will feed me for three whole meals. I love the consistency of Chipotle, it tastes the same every time! Now, I'm a pro, I order online before I head out, and I can head straight to the cash to have my meal(s) waiting for me. The only thing is that I have a hard time hearing the servers over the big glass wall. Oh, and I wish it stayed open later. It really would be an awesome late night meal. read more

Chipotle used to be my weekly treat when I was living in Denver (the birthplace of Chipotle) and I am excited that it's here in TO. I love the fresh and local ingredients and it always tastes so good and very satisfying. I always order the burrito bowl which doesn't seem as massive as the burrito wrapped in a tortilla -- it also makes it easy to mix all of the yummy ingredients together so you can take it all in one bite. My favorite is the chicken which is freshly grilled and very tasty. The food is pretty much the same as in the U.S. though I find the rice has a lot more lime than I used to, but it taste just fine with me. My only (minor) gripe is that why does it cost almost $3 more for a burrito here in Canada?!!! Beverages are also on the steep side. Interestingly enough that all of the meals are all the same price -- in the U.S. prices very depending on what kind of meat you choose. I hope more Chipotle's opens up in the city -- especially in the west end. read more

A quick little spot is you want something with flavor... I only ever get their salads or bowls. For some reason i always ask for hot salsa when I should know better. It's so overbearingly hot lol I've never been to the Chipotle in the States but for some reason I thought it would be better than this... read more

This is the best chipotle location to date! They are very generous with their helpings and very friendly when you order and pay. I always get the steak bowl because I prefer the meat and rice while avoiding the bland tortilla. I would always get a side of chips and guac which is priced nicely at another $4~ read more

worst location for chipotle!!! big piece of hard avocado in my guacamole. everything is not fresh! super disappointed and rude staff! read more

I will start off by saying if you do Chipotle you have to do it right. A friend of mine from Los Angeles was talking up a storm about Chipotle and I had to try it. I went downtown and ordered myself a burrito I thought it was good but not what he hyped it up to be. When I went home to call him and tell him I thought it was just okay he gave me a good yelling, you know that kind of yelling your Mom would do when you forgot to take out the trash? "You either do Chipotle right or wrong and you did it wrong" I knew I was in for a treat. "Go back and get yourself a burrito bowl with the same ingredients and call me when you are in the middle of ordering it." The next day I wander off to Chipotle and get myself a burrito bowl with the same ingredients, boring right? I pick up my phone and dial my friend confused more than anything. "Buy tortilla chips they make them in house" So I tell my friend over the counter I want an order of tortilla chips and sure enough I get a plain brown bag handed to me with chips. I felt like I was in some special secret club. I sit down and question my friend why I have the bag of chips and the burrito bowl. My friend tells me "mix the burrito bowl together and grab a chip and use the burrito bowl as a chip dip." I do as he says and I can not express the flavour explosion in my mouth. If anyone is familiar with cartoons when they lick their lips in an exaggerated fashion then you can picture me eating this meal perfectly. Shortly after my Chipotle experience I shared this secret way of eating Chipotle to my new girlfriend and she loved it. 3 years later I am still with her and I think the fact that I shared the delicious Chipotle hack is the only reason she is still around. She is waiting for me to pull another trick out of my hat so if you have any secret ways to eat food please feel free to message me. Thanks for the read ! read more

I was first introduced to this chain while in the U.S.A last summer, and i must say i have been hooked ever since. To my tastebuds delight, i happened to find out that Toronto had one also! So off i went in search of that taste i remembered from last summer. The food continues to amaze me. Always fresh, and always filling ( hope you can eat). The burrito bowls are yum. Don't waste your money on other 'mexican' joints, this is the place..and its healthy also. Be prepared for a line-up during lunch hour, but its worth the wait. read more

Love me some Chipotle.. Love the chicken bowl- the burritos get a little too messy for me. I always get the mild salsa (I like the chunks of freshly diced tomatoes) as well as the hot. Chips and guacamole on the side- lunch/dinner so good. Much better than most of the burrito places in the city- and comparatively priced. read more

About what you'd expect from any Chipotle, they have a formula that works well. Was packed when we got there, about 8 people ahead of us in line but they served us super fast, we were out of there within 4mins. I got the new sofitas in a bowl, it's a tofu type mix, which was pretty delicious. Only thing is they don't seem to fill their bowls as much as other Chipotles... Or maybe not as much as the American Chipotles. read more

Great food. The meat comes from animals raised without the use of antibiotics, a large percentage of which is organic. Very tasty and filling. It is fast food but it feels like it is of a high quality. Perfect comfort food. read more

Ethical, fresh and delicious. Today we came in and an employee was announcing to the customers that they didn't have meat. It would explain why it was so quiet in here but still I was happy to see lots of people were eating vegetarian or vegan. No chicken? No steak? No problem! Meat does not a delicious meal make. read more

Chipotle Mexican Grill - Not so busy when they don't have chicken or steak to serve. #vegan for the win! - Mexican Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Fantastic value for money. EDIT: In the past two years Chipotle's prices have gone up while the quantity of toppings has gone down. I still treat myself there everyone once and a while, but if you don't want to pay upwards of $10 then head to Burrito Boyz or Big Fat. read more

I tried Chipotle tonight for the first time. I love burritos and was anxious to give it a try. The place is very clean and we were served very quickly. The glass wall made it hard to hear and give orders but really enjoyed the food being protected. I had the carnita burrito which was good. They do make a big burrito and heat the tortilla before putting it together and there seemed to be an ample amount of choices for it. They do not grille it after. The price is reasonable for the size. If in the neighborhood, I would have another again, but there are much better burrito places in the city read more

Why would you give less than 5 stars to a place like this, even if it's a chain? It is GOOD FOOD here, and the only fast food place I'll really eat at because it's natural stuff. Amazing. SO YUMMY. I can't get tired of it and I've gone almost every day now. read more

Friend told me that I had to eat here and I finally got around to doing just that. There was a lineup, as expected, but it moved at a good pace with two people on the line and one cashier. I couldn't hear them and apparently they couldn't hear me either as I asked for a chicken bowl and was given steak instead. The steak was a bit dry but the bowl as a whole still tasted great. The portions seem generous and they do give you more if you ask. read more

Chipotle Mexican Grill - Mexican Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I was going to go with 3-stars, but seeing as Yelp's description of the 3-star rating is 'A-OK' and the 2-star is 'Meh. I've experienced better.', 2-star is definitely the right option, because I have most definitely experienced better. This was my first time going to Chipotle after some three years. The last time I had it, I remember really enjoying my burrito, and especially given the way people rave about Chipotle I was pretty excited to be eating there again - I was, however, quite let down. The two main fast food burritos I've had most recently are from Quesada (in Montreal) and Moe's Southwest Grill (in Atlanta), so naturally my expectation for Chipotle was based on these and I was definitely expecting better. What I got, however, was considerably worse for four main reasons: 1) Although they deserve credit for having a largely simple menu, which many places struggle with, it's so simple that they have only one type of tortilla, with no whole wheat option. Quesada and Moe's both offer whole wheat and white tortillas. 2) There was a smaller selection of ingredients to choose from to put in my burrito. Moe's, as far as I remember, had the largest selection with options like grilled mushrooms and onions, and Quesada also had a selection larger than that of Chipotle. Chipotle only had a few simple options, no additional sauces and it seemed the entire time they were trying to hurry the process up too much. 3) The way they readied the burrito. Chipotle first heats the tortilla, then puts all the ingredients inside and then hands you your burrito. The other two, on the other hand, heat the tortilla, insert the ingredients and then reheat the entire burrito so that even the ingredients it holds get nice and warm. I could tell from my first bite of Chipotle's burrito that the insides were cold. Cold rice, cold chicken and cold vegetables (although that last one is probably okay). 4) The price. It's priced higher than the other two and it's not considerably larger. They also only have one size, which again is less flexibility for the consumer. Oh, and I could add here that Chipotle's burrito was considerably messier to eat than others I've had. But you could say that's very relative, so I'm open to disregarding it! Having said all that, although I won't say it was a bad burrito, it just wasn't great and I have most certainly had better and with so many other places to try, I can't say I'll be coming back any time soon. read more

A fresh pico de gallo A shy steak chopper A nostalgic feeling Ah Chipotle ay ay ay! arriba! Ok so what I like from chipotle is the freshness of the ingredientes. Thats it. That resumes my whole experience. I have been in supposedly Mexican restaurants around Toronto and more often than not they fall into dishonesty with their menus and taste. So f***ck them, I go to chipotle and get a simple steak bowl with real cheese and avocado and a nice load of fresh beans. Bam. read more

I ate in many location in the states. This Canadian one seems to have a little bit higher price. The food was good and very fulfilling. Not much service to talk about here since its basically self-service after the counter. It was really crowded and hard to find a seat to eat. read more

Big line up most of the time, but moves along fast usually. I, once came with big order (10), spoke to a nice server by the Cashier, she actually took my order, made my orders on the separate area at opposite side of the usual serving area. It was impressively fast, and accurate, she even wrote everyone's name on the wrapper. I didn't have to wait in the line up, got all my cutleries, paid and I'm done. No fuss, no gimmick, good service for a "fast food" joint. Unfortunately, a few times I was there, getting my favourite Barbacoa, the meat is overly salty :( Meat serving is varies, depending on the Server. read more

Worse Chipotle I have ever been to! I found hair in my food and they didn't give me a fork! and when I called, they were not the nicest. Do not recommend this location. read more

Chipotle is the BOMB. I come to Chipotle at least twice a week for Lunch, their Burritos are amazing i always get the Steak or Chicken. They come packed with goodness and they are Huge!! This will fill you up nice and the ingredients are fresh & healthy. Only downside is the price is 9$ and guacamole is an extra 2$, lineup can get huge at lunch time as well. But all in all this place is Amazing & you even have the option to get your mealin a bowl for the same price if you don't want to get messy. I always get the Buritto though and devour it like an animal =P read more

Finally a good new concept in Canada! There is nothing better than a fat, tasty burritos filled with goodness. I wish they would drain the beans much more, I dislike soggy burritos. The location is perfect, right downtown Toronto and it was just beside our hotel. Chipotle is a very fast place that will fill you up to the rim. Just one burritos and you are good for a good 5 hours! I strongly recommend the carnitas burrito. read more

80%++ of the time they are amazing, but it seems some times of the day with the less experienced staff the ingredients come out tasting a bit more bland and the meat not cooked properly. Either way, only burrito in the entire city I am able to eat multiple times per week and never get sick of. read more

What I love about Chipotle is that they serve fresh burritos/tacos that were made with ingredients that I don't have to be guilty of - non-gmo produce and no antibiotics or synthetic hormones in the meat. Doesn't hurt that you can see everything being prepared in front of your eyes. I usually get the chicken bowl with brown rice and extra servings of the mild salsa, corn, cheese and lettuce. Their guacamole is really good and they give you a generous serving but it costs extra. They also have a vegetarian option which I've tried. However, I'm sticking with my chicken. Their pulled pork is also really good - nice and tender. Sometimes the chicken gets burnt though which sucks but generally, the meat is cooked well and are very flavorful. It's great for takeout as they don't have much eating space especially during peak hours. It's also great for eating solo - just sit on the stool by the windows, eat and people watch. Great value for the money, environmentaly conscious business, good food for everyone! read more

One of my weekly staples without a doubt when i'm at Ryerson for class. Compared to other places, it's much healthier and they let you customize your burrito-bowls anyway you want. It's also relatively cheap for the amount of food you get and when you compare it to other places downtown core. A lot of places like Burrito Boyz or Blaze Pizza have increased their price, but not Chipotle, it's still only $8.95 for any of their meals! My recommendation is to go for the half-steak and half-chicken burrito bowl with the tortilla on the side ;) read more

I'm normally around downtown core area either for work or studying at the Ryerson SLC, so this place is an obvious go-to for me. You can't really beat the quality-to-price ratio since you're getting relatively a lot of wholesome food for only 8.99$ + tax. A lot of other places (like the Blaze Pizza or Burrito Boyz) have increased the price but not Chipotle, it's still going strong ;) That said, i'll be honest when i say i think the quality has dropped a bit from a few years when it first opened, but that's to be expected when the price of ingredients have gone up and you're trying to maintain the same price for what you're selling. Either way, still love this place and will always be a top 5 consideration for me when downtown. read more
