| - I can't say how this chipotle stacks up to others locations but I really enjoyed the food and the location of this standalone Chipotle.
I've had very limited experience with this chain, I've only really had it one other time, and that was downtown where I had a burrito and it was underwhelming. It's all about ordering the correct things here and I'd say the bowls/salads are the best way to go here!
First off there's quite a bit of seating here, it's clean, and it's kind of dimly lit as well. Ordering was very simple, you just get asked what you want, and that's it. Obviously I got everything in the bowl for maximum value and flavors! I'm pretty sure you can ask them to add more toppings if you wanted to, they have no problems with that.
Needless to say I was absolutely stuffed sharing two bowls (and a side of guacamole) with my significant other. We got one salad bowl and one regular bowl, they're pretty much the same thing, the only difference is that the salad bowl you get more salad as opposed to rice and the regular bowl, you get rice as your primary base. And of course you get this awesome sweet, and spicy vinaigrette with the salad (you can add it to the regular bowl for a nice surprise!)
Flavors really worked well together and I loved all the various components here. The corn was surprisingly sweet and crisp and so was the lettuce in the salad. The meats (we tried chicken and the beef barbacoa) were both well seasoned and tender! I might add that they were indeed on the saltier side but that's okay. Salsas were a nice kick of heat, and the sour cream and the shredded cheese just numbs it all down. The guacamole was also very creamy and satisfying.
