They have two joints in Toronto, and it's pretty damn good. So far, I've gotten chicken burrito with pinto beans and brown rice. Does anyone have any other suggestions?
 
Burrito bowl. Brown Rice + Beef + Corn + Hot Salsa + Cilantro.

You can add more if you like, but that's a damn good base.

If you're feeling like you want two or three meals in one, you can ask them to make a quesadilla and put that around the burrito.

Don't actually do that. It will kill you.

There's one in Toronto that supposed to open right beside where I work, but the "coming soon" sign has been up for well over a year now.
 
Ask for a little more of everything except meat (e.g. "double cheese" or "could I just get a bit more cheese"). Usually they'll give you twice as much of stuff without thinking about it. Also when getting meat, ask for something like "half chicken, half steak" and they'll give you almost twice as much meat. Get a water cup for soda, and no guacamole.
 
Brown rice, black beans, chicken, lettuce on the bottom, green peppers/onions mix they have, mild tomato sauce, on a bowl.

My staple
 
It's pretty good. I also love their commitment to quirkiness.

Barbacoa/Carnitas are the best meats as they are braised and have tons of flavor.

Probably the best overall chain out there. It's very flexible to diets as well.
 
I enjoy their bowls more. You lose too much flavor to the burrito shell.

My goto bowl is chicken with white rice, pinto, veggies, mild and hot salsa, cheese, and corn salsa.

If I get Barbacoa then I switch to brown rice.

Gotta admit I'm surprised no one has mentioned diarrhea yet.

I like this place. Their bowls are delicious.

You only get diarrhea the first 100 times you go there. Your body adjusts.
 
Get the bowl instead of the burrito. Ask for a side of tortillas, even two if you wanted. This way, you can get two burritos out of it instead of one.

I usually go with brown rice, steak, black beans, grilled veggies, corn, and lettuce...
when I'm with my girlfriend. I usually substitute steak with chicken instead just to be a bit more healthy.
 
I had chipotle for the first time about a month and a half ago, now I constantly want chipotle. Good thing I have self control otherwise I would've gained a ton of weight.
 
I usually get a bowl (less messy) with steak, carnitas, cilantro rice, black beans, onions and peppers, pico de gallo, and salsa verde. With the double meat, it's enough to fill me up for most of the day.
 
Bunch of casuals in here getting bowls. Burritos all the way, just get better at eating it without it falling apart, pro tip, don't put the thing down, if you put it down, that's when you've messed up.
 
I always get the same thing...

3 soft steak tacos, extra steak, with just mild salsa and fajita veggies.

What is in their steak seasoning? I must replicate it, it is too good...
 
I love the hipsters who try to talk down on it for being "fast food", surprised they haven't flooded this thread yet.

I'm Mexican-American, I grew up stuffing my face with "Authentic" burritos and quesadillas.

Chipotle is good, haters gonna hate.
 
Protip: If you get chips/salsa, ask for multiple salsas. The one cup they otherwise give you is pathetically small, and I think the staff is generally in agreement as they'll give you two or three if you want.
 
I used to love em but the quality of beef has gone way down hill from what it used to be.

Rice, steak and hot sauce and pico used to by go to but the beef is stringy and fatty now I end up choking on it most of the time.

Also wtf is up with them calling pico de gallo mild sauce?!??

It's like Qdoba, but with less liquid cheese.

Queso is a plus in the Qdoba camp, but I prefer Chipotle for basically every other reason. Chipotle is just better all around.

I get bowls/salads because they're healthier, not because I'm afraid of the burrito falling apart.
 
Guys. GUYS.

Two secrets to Chipotle:

1. Smile (and be polite)'
2. Order half-and-half on the proteins (like half Chicken, half Steak)

You will get easily 50-100% more delicious protein for free.

Brown rice, black beans, half chicken, half steak, double-hot, corn, and cheese. It's fucking God tier and I will NEVER get tired of it.

I must find this out as well. As soon as I discover the seasoning on pollo tropicals chicken.
