Title: Got a Chipotle going in about 5 miles from my house
Post by: spacey on March 15, 2007, 06:40:58 PM
My brother did the duct work, he thinks it will open in 6-8 weeks. I'm pretty sure it's Utah's first. I'll post a review after the hype dies down. Expect to see it in 12-14 months.

[whispering] just my personal opinion, a bit overrated [/whispering]

I know I'm in the minority at least around here. It's good, just not up to the ravings of some folks I know.

We've had one for about two months.  They opened up about a block from a Qdoba.  I think I prefer Qdoba, they have more items on their menu.

chipotle is , as a whole, overrated.  they do several things  wayyyy better than qdoba $.02 (barbacoa, carnitas, chicken...  as well as better beans!)    nothing measures up to  baja fresh   rip

You may be surprised.  They give stuff away all the time. 

[edit] Oh, you mean stand in line.  LOL 

I think you'll like it.  Pretty decent lunch.

Chipotle has hype? Hmmm. Anyway its not bad. I like the tacos a lot more than the burritos. They stuff those burritos with about a pound of rice. Its a little pricey for what you get, especially if you like guacamole on your tacos.  :drool: :hungry:

I will honestly be there...as I am sure Spacey will too eventually.  Around here, SLC is like the garden of good to me.  We honestly don't have *feces*.  Chipolte ( as lame as others may think) will be a god send to me when traveling in the holy land.  For no other reason than I CAN get it, and say I can get it.

Been to the one near here a couple of times. It's okay, but nothing to rave about. Average lunch around $6. A little pricey for what you get. The lines here have died off. Drop a business card in their bowl for a weekly lunch giveaway for up to 10 people. One of the girls in our office has won 3 times.

It reminds me of what I'd imagine McDonalds would do with burritos if they were into that kind of thing

I believe this has changed.  Apparently they sold off their stock interest.

I thought that might be it.  Cool.  I'll give it a try but I'm with you, no lines.

Not much chain food I'm willing to stand in line for.
