Qdoba

This Qdoba is the best. The employees are always friendly and the food always tastes great.

I first became aware of Qdoba burritos when I rode my little 49cc motor scooter in the 2007 St. John’s Burn Center Poker Run 100+ mile motorcycle tour. (I got some odd looks from the other motorcyclists along the way – and praise from a real tough-​looking Harley rider who said, «It takes a lot of guts to do this ride on one of those!») All participants got a coupon for a free burrito, so I stopped in at the one on Battlefield and had it. I liked it, and learned there was one on Sunshine much closer to me, so I’ve been going pretty regularly since.
If you’ve never had a Qdoba burrito, it’s quite a meal. It’s an absolutely huge, San Francisco-​style burrito full of rice, beans, meat, cheese, salsa, and optional guacamole, among other stuff. (The guacamole costs extra. Some people choose to spend extra money on their avocation; I spend it on avocados.)
A Qdoba burrito is more than a lot of people can eat in one sitting; when I took my parents out to Qdoba they had to split one, and when I get them to go I often end up saving part of the burrito to eat later. I tend to favor their shredded beef burrito, though their steak burrito is also very good and even the ground beef is decent if you’re on a budget. You can choose between black or pinto beans, and among several different varieties of salsa.
Qdoba offers a cardswipe customer loyalty discount program where you get a free burrito or other entrée after buying approximately ten. However, they double the points you get per entrée on Tuesdays (the traditional slowest day of the week), and I often swing by there on Tuesday nights to snag dinner.
Despite what the survey question says, they also offer margaritas (for dine-​in only) in addition to beer. They’re not bad, though not the best I’ve ever had either.
One big benefit of Qdoba, at least for the Sunshine location, is that they offer FREE WIFI.
By the way, have you ever tried getting the phone number for a Qdoba from the Goog411 voice recognition system? If you say «Cue-​doba» it has no idea what you mean. I finally figured out what to say, though: «Doba». I have no idea if the Q is supposed to be silent in real life, but Goog411 certainly considers it to be!

Having enjoyed many a Freebids and a few Chipolte burritos down in Texas, trying Qdoba was new for me. It was quite enjoyable but a little more expensive. It was about 2 – 3 years ago so I don’t remember any other details!
Random Note: They have a unique frequent visitors program with a plastic swipe card and that gets you different things like chips, queso and free burritos. I’ve since tossed mine.
