Chipotle, Qdoba, or Baja Fresh?

[Papa Deuce]

I went to Chipotle today for the first time. It was REALLY GOOD, but from the way some people rant about it, I was expecting more, I guess.

I prefer Baja Fresh.

We just got Chipotle in our area maybe a year ago. DH loves it. I like it too, but I prefer Qdoba. The nachos are freakin awesome! We don't have Baha Fresh.

Order of ranking:

Chipolte
Burrito Loco (a local joint)
Qdoba
Baja Fresh

Mmmm now I want a burrito.

Rubio's Fish Tacos is better.
The best Mexican fast food in the USA in my opinion is the Alerbrtos/Robertos/Erilbertos chain in SoCal

Qdoba by a mile!!!!!

 

[helenabear]

I assume you mean Baja Fresh instead of Baha? I can't stand that place, I get sick to my stomach when I eat there.

I do like Chipotle. We just got a Qdoba here, but I have not eaten there yet to know if it is good or not.

We have a Qdoba here and I really didn't like it at all. My favorite fast food Mexican place is Kokopelli. It is sooooo darn good.

Baja Fresh is wonderful - I wish we had them here in Florida!!! We only get to eat there when we visit family in Cali.

We have both Qdoba and Chipotle. Chipotle is good - and Qdoba is disgusting. We had heard wonderful things about Qdoba and DH and I actually had to throw away our food.

We went to a Sharky's in California and that was fantastic - I don't know if it is a chain or not though.

Another place - Kokopelli Grill. Not many open yet, but they are healthy(ier?) and very good.

I love Moe's. They have the best guacamole, and the menu items have funny names. DH's favorite is the Jimmy Bag of Donuts- I like the Art Vandalay or the Homewrecker. Mmmmm...

None of the choices. I refuse to pay $10 for a take out burrito. I admit they're good, but no way jose. No pun intended.

Really? Dang, we're getting ripped.

But we have small mom/pop mexican fast food joints where you can get a full meal with the works for under $5.00. Not fancy, and definitely divey, but so so so much better.

 

[Breezie]

Definitely Chipotle! Nothing else comes close in my mind.

 

[debbiedoo]

if ever in the ATL try my link above, very authentic -- even the ppl at epcot in the mexico pavillion were saying that. I wanted rice and beans with my dish, and they brought it out

Wish we had those, but we don't have many, at least in nice areas of town.

 

[profdsny]

In the whole Chicago area I think there are no more than 6 Baja Fresh. They are my favorites, but not easy to find. Chipotle is so so. I've never been to a Qdoba, though I see them around.

From chains we probably eat at Wahoo's Fish Tacos the most. We have tons of authentic taquerias here though and I usually prefer those.
