A year ago, Chipotle was just a name we were reading about and a name on the stock market. Finally, we get to try what everyone is raving about and why the stock price was going up. James, the Taco Bell lover, was so insistent on going to Chipotle and the kids thought they would not like it and that it was not their type…. but they liked it!
Behind the counter is a set up like this and what is nice is that you can tell them what you want in your taco or burrito. You make your own. All ingredients are FRESH and as Steve mentioned, BETTER SOURCES OF INGREDIENTS. Which explains its price and maybe why they call it GOURMET.
The lines can be long so you might get pressured when you get to the counter, so better to know already what you want before going to the counter so you do not get harassed. We did not know what we wanted, so they helped us a bit- good thing it was still good! 🙂 So if you will notice, what we ordered, they all look almost the same in terms of filling.
The orders come in 3 pcs. It is around US$ 7.00+ for 3 pcs. which I think is double the price for 3 Taco Bell tacos. We tried the crispy taco and the soft taco. And in those 3 pcs. you can choose different fillings for each.
We also tried the burrito bowl!
and of course the chips for Javier! It came in a brown paper bag!
You can even just fax in your order so you do not need to line up:
