Chipotle Mexican Grill

I was reluctant to write this review because I used to be a fan of chipotle. But I think it’s best to warn others.
Shortly after eating at this particular restaurant in queens center mall, I had the worst stomach symptoms I have ever received in my life. After a couple of days of discomfort I finally decided to go to a gastro specialist. After a few tests, it was discovered that I was suffering from salmonella.
I never reported it nor am I interested in suing. I just need to warn those who eat here regularly to be aware. Needless to say, I will not be returning lol.
Good luck to those who do.

Solid Chipotle branch located in the Food Court of the Queens Center Mall. People working kept the line moving briskly. Food was warm and fresh. They offer free soft drink refills, which is a plus after a day of mall wandering. The only issue isn’t with the Chipotle itself, its with the cleanliness of the tables and area for eating in the food court. Queens Center needs to step up their game in that department.

I like Chipotle and when I eat it I pretend that it’s some awesome Mexican food. Lets face it, it isn’t, but I digress. This particular establishment is incredibly skimpy, like if the employees fear someone barking at them if they go over their allotted measurements. Every time I go here without fail, I feel the need to get extra meat. Or even worse ask the server to put a little more beans or another dash of salsa (gasp). What’s sad about this, is I’m not a big eater, and it doesn’t take much to fill me up. If this is their ploy to generate business, honestly, that reflects poorly on Chipotle as a whole.

Woke up really late on a Sunday, and got a Chipotle burrito because I’m trying to eat healthy and all… unsuccessfully.
Anyways, that was the only meal I had on that Sunday… And the following day was pretty miserable. Let’s just say I made many not so fun bathroom visits allllll day. The sour cream tasted a little bit funny, so I think it was the sour cream that caused me this endless misery.
Needless to say, but never returning to this Chipotle or even this food court.

The staff members I dealt with when I was here were pretty nice, especially the cashier. She totally didn’t judge me when I ordered something from the Kids menu. The menu item I got was much cheaper than getting a full bowl (I just wanted a quick bite and it takes me a long time to eat through a bowl). It also came with a juice box yay!

Like most Chipotle Mexican Grills the quality of food is great. The only one complaint I have is there was a lettuce stump in my steak bowl. Besides that the line moves fast during the lunch rush and the staff are friendly.

This Chipotle is great — the food is better quality than the other food court offerings. Service was fine when I was here, although there was a line and it was tough to find a place to sit.

Not just this location, but I was a big fan of Chipotle, but the price has increased & the portion got ridiculously smaller !!! Taking a long break!

WORST MANAGER I EVER ENCOUNTERED! I love chipotle, the manager karen should not represent chipotle, she is rude, and does not carry manager characteristics, never eating here again!

This place is not as bad as it seems, every time I head to the mall I get these weird cravings of having a burrito from here lol.
The line goes by really quick, they have a lot of people working behind the counter and friendly staff.
Quality of the food is a lil on the downfall but hey it’s considered junk food or fast food.
I had a Tortilla, black beans, sheared beef, pico de gallo, cream cheese and a blackberry drink they have. Really good!!!
The only bad thing is that their prices are really high, I payed about $ 14 for everything. It should be much less.

Worst Chipotle I’ve been to. Nothing but Rude and disrespectful high school kids working here. I like to order my food a specific way and everytime they end up remaking it or they tell me I cannot have it that particular way. Believe me if I was the manager at this facility I would fire everybody.

OH MY GOODNESS !!!
I rarely rarely write 1 star reviews but this place doesn’t even deserve that. First let me start off by saying that if I wasn’t starving and about to pass out, I wouldn’t eat at the food court at queens center mall. Not that there is anything really wrong with that, I’m just not a fan of eating in food courts (this one isnt really that clean and seating is scarce).
So the only thing that I thought was sensible and gluten free friendly other than a salad was chipotle. I wanted to be full and satisfied but boy was I so disappointed. I decided to order a vegetarian bowl (a lot of stuff minus meat). It looked like a sloppy mess. They gave a tiny spoon of rice, tiny spoon of beans, barely any lettuce or tomatoes. To make matters even worse when she told me it was $ 9 I was in total shock. I could have spent the same amount and had enough spanish or chipotle inspired food for at least three days. Please do yourself a favor and DO NOT EAT HERE… oh and the area with the lemons. yuck gross gross gross (can you imagine the amount of bacteria)
Anyway, there is enough food options in the neighborhood. Choose wisely

One thing about Chipotle is the food is the same no matter where you go. At the very least the burrito you get in Los Angeles is the same as Queens Center. The service is very quick, they tend to be heavy handed with the sour cream but always friendly. I’ve only been here late in the evenings, only in weekdays never on a weekend. Not a bad place.

The worth chipotle ever !!! Bad service attitude !!! I would never come here anymore!!! SUCKS!

Great food, very good and quick service, perhaps a better English speaking staff an workers could be better.

The food here is great which brings me coming back almost everyday because it is extremely convenient and it’s along the way to anywhere I need to go. But the service is horrible. Although extra rice is free, they are so stingy about giving it to you and the depending on the lady, you don’t even get a sufficient enough to even waste your breath asking. I never tried the beans and I never get beans on my chipotle so I’m not sure how that tastes but, I heard their pinto beans are no longer made of bacon, for all you vegetarians out there. The chicken is my favorite meat, I think it’s flavorful and chewy which I like. The one time I tried the steak, it tasted undercooked and it was not good compared to the chicken. I always ask for extra tomatoes on my chipotle as well. The hot sauce completely MAKES the chipotle! & gauc is like an extra $ 3. Which is crazy! But a lot of people do get it.
I think the burrito bowl is a much better investment than the burrito. I’m not a huge fan of how the skin tastes. And of course this is another establishment with overpriced water! I think it’s a little over $ 2???
Lemons, limes, napkins, forks and the spicy sauce are available near the cashier, which you can help yourself to.

Food is great! On the downside, it has the worst service I’ve ever seen. Some old lady who worked there with a heavy accent made me furious. She obviously was too busy yapping away instead of paying attention and doing her job. She had me repeat myself 3 times if I wanted guacamole. The 4^th time I just simply spoke louder so she could hear me. What I got in response, she gave me an attitude, saying «to stop yelling at her». Gee, if you’d pay attention like you’re supposed to, instead of being a horrible employee with hearing problems I wouldn’t have to «yell». I don’t understand why people like that can even get a job. One advice for you chipotle is if you want more people coming back, hire better employees not some uneducated person to give attitude and disrespect customers.

Okay. I’m ready to get shit for the review I’m about to bomb on this place.
IT IS ALL ABOUT THE HYPE THESE DAYS. I am not saying this because I want to be against the grain I REPEAT I am in no way shape or form a hater. But shit, this place sucks. I’d choose Moe’s any day! First off the meat is dry and tastes like complete nothing. The tortilla tastes like even more nothing and the toppings are just onions with salt. Everyone and their mommies daddies grannies doggies were raving about this place to me like it was an actual taco truck on Roosevelt avenue (kidding).
At least I gave it a chance. sorry kiddos but no.

Great to see the Mex grill in the Queens Center Mall. The food is awesome.
