It tasted good. Portions are excessive. Maybe not so overpriced when you consider that, but I rarely feel like a 1100+cal burrito. Haven't been there since the whole reorganization post-contamination fiasco. Apparently the quality has taken a missive dive now that everything is premade for safety.

Never had a problem with it, i prefer it to most fast food type chains.

Its like a last resort sort of place, the lowest of acceptable places I would eat at. Not good or bad.

I hate the process of ordering every single thing that goes into the food. It's annoying, I always feel rushed, and those social autisms. The only way this process doesnt suck is if a place has one of those cards with check boxes you can fill out.

The quality of the food itself is kinda bland, vaguely processed, mediocre. Probably as healthy as most fast food gets though.

Like another anon said, an 1100 to 1700 calorie burrito is unnecessary, I'd rather just pay less and get a normal sized one.

Their hot sauce game is week as fug

Jesus its so overrated, all of these cucks pile into the one downtown at lunch time. Probably waste their whole break waiting in line and then have to scarf it down or take it back to an office

I wasn't able to eat for the first two days after and then I got intense fever/flu symptoms, almost felt like I was hallucinating for a week. Wasn't able to hold down food for a whole week and drank to numb the pain. Its been like 3 weeks now and I am finally starting to feel fully recovered.

I really like white people but there is something I've always wondered about, why do you guys just love standing in lines? Your post reminded me of countless occasions that I see White people, I don't mean this in a derogatory manner, stand in lines for Chipotle, other eateries, the most senseless stuff.

I'm thinking, "Why not go at another time when it is less crowded?" They seem to enjoy it and make a big event of it. Maybe it is a PNW thing?
