I keep on getting blown away with Qdoba. I just think they have more options then Chipotle. The interior is very clean. No doubt about that. The pop machine is like this futuristic machine that has hundreds of options. Food was well prepared. Good portions and lots of options. Pretty much I personally think it’s a Chipotle on steroids. The only negative is that it is expensive. 10.00 plus for a ground beef burrito and pop is the only reason why I am giving this place 4 stars. They should lower it to 8.00 for what we get. I still prefer this place over Chipotle though so far.

Standard Qdoba menu here, which is mostly a good thing. Service is quick and very freindly.

I continuously try this place and never love it. It bothers me that I never see any of the meat actually cooking on the grill, and that it comes from the back in little containers. All the workers I’ve encountered there are awesomely nice. I enjoy the great service provided by them. Overall, I can get a much tastier burrito from Chipotle for a little bit cheaper than I can here. Too bad, because it had potential.

This was my first time ever at a qdoba. I went because i had a bogo 50% off coupon that i received from gamestop. I ordered the queso nachos with chicken and beef soft tacos. The ground beef ran out so i had to wait quite a bit for the tacos, In the meantime my nachos were getting soggy. The employee did apologize for the wait and gave me a free soda. I couldn’t wait to try my nachos because Chipotle doesnt offer nachos. The nachos were so yummy even though they were soggy. My mother said the tacos were incredible. I would have given more stars but due to wait I give them 3. I will gladly return again. Given that i had to wait, I was able to observe the staff. Staff were very upbeat and helpful but one girl on the food line did not remove her gloves after taking money and using the cash register before she started on the food line again. Thank goodness she did not touch my food. That is my only complaint.

Decided to try a burrito bowl to switch things up from the regular Chipotle. Absolutely horrible is the best way to describe this place. Got the vegetarian burrito bowl and had to ask for grilled fajitas which they didn’t have. She said they could make some but it would take at least 10 minutes, I understand this happens but I was a bit surprised I had to ask and they wouldn’t automatically include them or at least tell me right off the bat it would be a few minutes. None the less I decided to continue and just skip it this time but ended up paying $ 8.66 for a burrito bowl with no veggies or meat. When I got home the burrito bowl tasted like garbage to say the least, rice was very dry, guacamole flavorless, and couldn’t identify what it was but just got a taste that something in there might have been spoiled. Save your money and spend the extra 30 seconds to go to Chipotle across the street and spend $ 2LESS and get more and more flavor.

Went there for lunch. My husband really wanted a taco salad but they were out of taco shells. Um, it was noon but… okay, tacos it is! Man, they were TERRIBLE. The chicken tasted like sweaty socks. I CHOKED down a taco and that was all I could eat. My husband had the steak tacos and he said the steak was reeeally tough and barely edible. Total. Fail. Will not be back.

Horrible chipolte wanna be, bad flavors, hormone infested meat and a nasty fake cheese sauce. Avoid at all costs.

Restaurant review Qdoba may have just won my business from Chiptole. Friendly staff, good portions, fresh food is that too hard to ask for. Qdoba had it all during this visit. Super friendly staff taking orders, good portion size. Didn’t have to ask can you give me more rice, cheese, etc. Food was fresh and delicious. I will be back. The steak taco bowl was a piece of art, well balance protein with lettuce and cheese. Pro: friendly staff, good portions Cons: the steak marinate is still not as good as chiptole, but overall the experience I think was better Hidden gem: Sign up online for the birthday club for BOGO coupon during your birthday month. The qdoba card will earn points for free food. After you sign up you can get a free drink or queso and chips

My wife and I have been here several times. Highly recommended! The Mexican Gumbo is the bomb!

Good Mexican food on the run. Though they have a nice clean seating area, it’s not formal dining. Great place to eat if your looking for a fast meal. When asking to take your meal, make sure they don’t squish it into a container; it arrives home in a ball of tortillas. Over all, great place to eat.

Cheap. Food looked greasy and had no flavor. Chipotle across the street is deffinetly a better pick. Will not go back

Love this new location! Especially because its within walking distance of my house ;) Staff is super nice and helpful, food is fresh, and I do love that you have a lot of options for toppings. Queso sauce is always a huge hit, chips are great(and sometimes free with your purchase), and you really do get a ton of food. Love it that its right across the street from Chipotle, love a good competition :)

WOW! I was a fan of Chipotle, but I am a HUGE fan of Qdoba. I didn’t think it was going to be this good, but now I understand why my sister said«You don’t know what you’ve got» when I told her one was opening up by me. I see the light! I love all of the options – it’s very Chipotle-like in the setup, but with MORE options and Qdoba’s ingredients are much more fresh. I LOVED their queso sauce. I chose to really go all out. I got three steak tacos with lots of toppings(all of which were amazing), and the«Pick Two» option, which is SUCH a good idea(somewhere that rhymes with Shmipotle should take some notes on that, nudge nudge). The«Craft 2» that I chose was: Nachos-Pinto Beans, Chicken, Queso, Lettuce, and Sour Cream Naked Burrito(no tortilla) – Cilantro Lime Rice, Steak, Ranchera Sauce, Cheese, Sour Cream, and Grilled Veggies(extra charge) My friend also got a Craft 2, so we had two meals plus a whole different other meal of tacos! Oh, and I got a cookie. Always a cookie! My total would have been $ 23, but I had a BOGO coupon that had been mailed to me(smart, guys!). So our total for three meals and a cookie was around $ 17. Not bad ATALL(especially since a couple days before that, I spent $ 23 on two U Pick 2’s, a drink, and a cookie from a place that rhymes with Shmanera… just saying…) Everything was really fresh and fast – it’s not«authentic Mexican, but it’s a(very important) step up from Taco Bell – and I’m not hating – I love me some TB! The customer service at Qdoba was amazing and they were really efficient, even with my three separate orders! I will definitely be back for the great food, accomodating service, and(most importantly) the delicious food.
