  1. *TIP: Place your order online and you can pick up direct from cashier within 30 minutes!
    (If you arrive and order is not ready, they will prepare for you immediately which is like cutting in line :P)

    Burrito Bowl is the way to go! Sofritos (tofu blend) is actually really tasty.
    You can also do half/half different meats. $9 incl tax for chicken+sofritos.
    And I like adding all the different types of salsas so it's less dry of a bowl.
    Portions are pretty generous (not pre-measured) but if you want more, don't be afraid to ask!

    I've been to Chipotle for years and it's one of the more consistent options but I'm a huge fan of their ongoing "Food with Integrity" initiative.

  2. All chipotles are not the same !!!

    This chipotle had friendly staff, giving good sized portions !! I enjoyed every bite !!

    I can also appreciate when the fajitas aren't burned to a crisp and their peppers and onions were perfectly cooked !! Another great meal at chipotle !

  3. I have witnessed many a terrible incident at a Chipotle. Once a woman screamed at the cashier for the unforgivable sin of putting guac directly onto her salad instead of on the side. Fisticuffs almost came to pass when an assembly-lineman accidentally used the tomatillo salsa instead of the fresh tomato salsa. A girl once asked for three extra helpings of fajita vegetables, thus leaving none for me. The problem with customizable Mexican fast food is that everyone thinks their combination is superior to all others when really … you're just eating sour cream soup.

    This Chipotle is no different, though I imagine its location make the lunch lines pretty awful. The girl working the tortilla stand blinked at me when I made a split-second decision of skipping the rice for my burrito bowl (yes, I should have requested a salad, and yes, I messed up the precise order of How Things Are Done), but I'm giving extra points for that generous dollop of guac.

    Not going to say any errors that may have been committed by the people assembling my burrito bowl (er … salad), because, well, it should be mandatory to work in a restaurant for at least a year, just so people know better than to scream at someone who makes their food.

  4. How come the hot food never comes out hot? Make sure you come at either 11 AM or 3 PM because the line here is impossible on weekdays due to the work crowd. it is also hard to find seats and the place is always negative 60 degrees because of how many people are coming in and opening the door. On a brighter note, they added tofu to the menu.

  5. One of the hidden gems after a great workout out at Blink Murry Hill.  Not situated on a high volume Street like Third Avenue or 42nd so you won't be on line with a walk in customer off the street.   The chipotle customer at this location know exactly what they want and will not hold up the line because they are indecisive.   My only wish is that Chipotle closes at 11 pm oppose to 10 pm so I can have a longer workout.  

    This Chipotle was deep behind enemy lines and manages to stay afloat while the two Qdoba situated on a Main Avenue,  (52nd, 40th & 3rd),  with tremendous traffic like strollers to gridlock exposure still manages to fold.   I can't believe how strong the brand Chipotle has become.

  6. I like this location because it's less crowded than a lot of the other chipotle locations. The atmosphere is more laid back and the associates are way more friendly than I've experienced at other locations.

  7. This is a really good chipotle. Outdoor seating, huge windows, and a dedicated window for online orders. The line at lunch is pretty full until 1:45pm with people who (thankfully) don't seem to know about online orders.

  8. Service here is iffy but I mean who looks for customer service at Chipotle?  I don't know what the fuss is all about or why people love coming here.  Its over priced mexican street food.  I come here on occasion during lunch break at work but not my ideal lunch spot.

    Don't get me wrong, the food is not bad, its just bland.  Even when you add all the things on the side, its still begging for flavor.  Also its not exactly healthy either, watch when you add sour cream or guac, they will add a large soup spoon on top of it. Thats an added 1000 calories lol

    I will come here when there is no where else to eat but I rather go to Jackson heights and have some real mexican street vendor food than a commercialized over hyped over priced wanna be mexican spot.
