Honestly, no long review is even worth it. It's so disappointing and aggravating to consistently order meat-free dishes only to find pieces of chicken and steak scattered throughout. This keeps happening, and it's unacceptable. Do better, Chipotle. read more

Chipotle Mexican Grill - Chips and queso w| steak with unwanted steak pieces - Mexican Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

I came for a steak bowl but felt disrespected and mistrustful of the food. A staff member cut in front to take the last bit of steak for himself after I already told the server what I wanted, and then the server said there was no more steak. After a brief back-and-forth, the steak supposedly would be ready in 10 minutes, and the priority steak bowl was said to be the owner. No one acknowledged my request to speak to the owner. The manager later seemed surprised by the claim and said the owner was not there. Overall, I left unhappy with the service and concerns about how the food was handled. read more

Incredibly rude staff. Visibly annoyed when I asked for the thing I paid for. She called me "slow" in Spanish and thought I didn't understand. I won't be back. read more

I was impressed with the quantity and quality of my bowls. After a long time , I get this Chipotle experience

I was a bit nervous seeing all the low reviews but decided to stop in today anyways. I got the barbacoa burrito, chips with guac, tomatoes and salad dressing on the side. First thing I noticed was how clean and organized the store was. The guy who helped me was super friendly and professional, the lady who rang me up was efficient and quick. The food was definitely on par-quite flavorful and very filling. The chips were super fresh as well! Hopefully this helps out anyone hesitating to visit this location. I used to go here years ago when I worked and lived in the area; now it's still just as good when visiting. They've been quite consistent in all these years, so give it a try. Also, if you go during busy hours, expect a bit of a delay. I visited around 11 am on a Sunday (today) so it was definitely less hectic read more

Chipotle Mexican Grill - Chips, guac, tomatoes, salad dressing-already finished the burrito - Mexican Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

Standard chipotle. I don't quite get why the scores are so low. What chipotle are y'all going to? Anyway, Everytime I went there it was fine. Some of the tables seemed kinda dirty, so I kinda thought some staff should wipe them down more frequently. The staff are fine, not overly cheerful, but also just efficient for what they are there to do. All together though it was a standard chipotle experience. read more

Worst chipotle I've been to. Weak portions on meat absolutely garbage customer service

Your typical national Chipotle chain. The food is good and what kills the experience is typically always the service. I haven't had my order messed up or feel that they're frugal with the ingredients, but I can sense the negativity from the staff members. I'm sorry you don't enjoy your job. Wish you guys the best of luck. read more

Definitely your standard chipotle. It's not impressive but it's not awful. I've ordered here a few times when I've run out of time to meal prep for dinner. Service is quick but not accurate. They've gotten my orders incorrect a few times but I'm not a picky eater nor allergic to any of the toppings. read more

Chipotle Mexican Grill - Mexican Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

First time coming during lunch hours and line was out the door. I will say they do well of keeping that line moving but a little disappointed a had to ask 3 individuals to confirm which meat was plant-based. Luckily 1 of the 3 could confirm. read more

Workers will give you the smallest portions possible every single time even if asking for a little bit more. Also can be very rude and talk about you in Spanish while ordering . read more

If I could give zero stars I would. Don't know if it's Chipotle in general but it's very disappointing to have to ask for more when it comes to everything they are putting in your bowl. Not because you are being greedy but because it's owed for what they charge now. Ridiculous!!!! And don't bother to try the overpriced brisket because it's just chunks of fat. Never eating at Chipotle again!!! read more

Waste of money, go somewhere else - this chipotle does not serve you any decent portion sizes even doubling up portions. What a shame

I came here with my boyfriend for lunch today and probably will never return. We debated on a chicken bowl vs. a steak bowl, and since he was hungrier than usual, we opted for a steak bowl. There were two ladies behind the counter- one lady filling up with rice, beans, and meat, the other lady filling up with toppers like salsa, cheese, lettuce, etc. The lady filling up with rice and beans and meat was super generous in her serving with the rice and beans we had asked for, but she had to run to the back to get something. She passed the bowl off to her coworker to finish off the meat and toppings. The First Lady came back with a FRESH batch of steak and filled the container up to the brim. The line was building up, so after she filled up the steak, she started helping out the next customer in line. I was excited the steak was just off the grill and was about to get my values worth. Oh boy...oh boy. Was I wrong. The second lady took the spoon and gave not even a half a scoop full. She then proceeded to go for a second scoop which I got excited for an literally added TWO TINY EXTRA PIECES. WHAT THE. Did we actually pay $10.84 for 10 little pieces of steak in our bowl? Yes, yes we did? (I measured it out at home, counted the tiny cubes of steak, and it didn't even fill up a similar serving spoon they use to scoop meat at Chipotle) Was it worth it? Heck no. I was fuming walking out... Will I return? Most likely not. This was our go-to quick spot for lunch and we were never skimped out as heavily as we were today. Not worth it. Save your time and head over to the local Rasa or Mezeh for better bang for your buck and value with your lunch money. read more

I wish I could give this 0 stars. Because I am NEVER EVER EVER going back to this chipotle EVER!!! I just had the WORST EXPERIENCE I've ever had in a chipotle establishment EVER!!!! First of all....I'm Very very special when it comes to how I order my food I recognize that and I respect the people who have to make my vert specific and detailed request. Secondly. Well listen what it boils down to is this. Customer service representatives to include food service workers are at work and WORKING because other customer service e representatives ALSO have to go to work and we get hungry. LASTLY My order was not made as I was requesting, not only did the young lady stare at me like a deer in headlights and COMPLETELY ignore me as I was telling her what I wanted but she walked off for yet ANOTHER employee to come over and look at me like I was crazy for getting a bowl with chips in my bowl with queso. Now let me be clear I have made this same order over 6 times within the last 2 months and I have NEVER had such a difficult time as I did today. I can't even walk back to my office without getting this out I'm so frustrated. Everyone has a bad day...HELL I ONLY COME GET FOOD WHEN IM HAVING A BAD DAY..so I guess that made two of us. But the difference is....she didn't come to my office and ask for something I came to hers to patronize. I was embarrassed that I had to keep repeating myself only to be ignored, and there was a line so I paid my $30 and left. That could have been handled better!!! I could have been handled better! I will be writing corporate. Today's experience was unacceptable! read more

Team member Katherine was so rude.. I said thank you to her and she kept talking in Spanish to her other coworker without saying anything. Also when I was ordering my food she was at the register and went to get other things but didn't apologize for having me wait until she comes back to ring up my food. Poor service read more

Literally the worst service. I live in one of the apartment buildings next door and so of course I come here often. Their service has been horrible EVERY SINGLE TIME. They have so much attitude here and it's literally for no reason. All the customers I've seen are always kind but for some reason the workers are so rude. They also give the least amount of food and soda possible. Stop talking about the party you went to last night and get to work. A little less attitude and little more of what I pay for please. read more

Chipotle Mexican Grill - Mexican Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

Bad service and the worst manager. Makes fun of customers in Spanish and tries to double charge for addition of guacamole. Makes jokes in Spanish to her staff. But today the customer also knew Spanish and knew exactly what she tried to do. Marian the manager tries to charge double the price of the guacamole addition. And she uses the excuse that she is just taking care of the portions. When confronted, she just denies everything. Lost a customer. Good job manager of this store read more

Well let's just get to the point where they are short staffed so the lines were long. Not enough diversity of workers in there as well. Manger was going back and forth with a customer about there food which caused a big scene. All the trash cans were full. The girls bathroom didn't have any toilet paper or paper towels. The workers were friendly and my food was good but this location definitely needs help ! read more

This was an enjoyable experience for Chipotle. I ordered online and it was ready in about twenty minutes. It was peak time -12:15pm so I expected a bit of a delay. I wasn't that bad. The only confusing part of the location is the two places designated for pick up- one is a shelf and one is like a carry out area. I didn't initially see the carry out area so I waited by the shelf for like 7 minutes. Then I saw the carry out area, and there was my order! The barbacoa bowl was pleasant enough. Lots of sour cream which was enjoyable. Also ordered chips and guacamole which were fresh & a nice complement to the meal! read more

Not a lot to add here, really, as it's an established franchise chain. Location is convenient for the zillions of office workers in the massive Crystal City complex. As other reviewers have noted, lines can be very long but generally move fast. Service is typically good although mistakes do happen (inattention, sometimes language issues) but overall a solid and inexpensive place to get a meal. read more

I hate for this review to be negative or focus on the negative, but because of the fact that this particular Chipotle has a group of people who either lack a reasonable command of the English language (which is understandable and I'm more than willing to give anyone the benefit of the doubt) and other employees who lack any reasonable concept of caring, they often get phone-in or orders made ahead grossly incorrect. Two words SOUR CREAM! read more

Chain burrito place - had to feed my Tex-Mex craving so I stopped in for a burrito. Simple menu- pick your meat, down the line - pick your fillings, rice, beans , salsa , cheese , lettuce, sour cream , guacamole and more! All freshly made and hand assembled. They also offer burrito bowls and tacos. Add a bag of chips if you like. They also have sodas and a small selections of beers. The burrito I ordered was large and very tasty. I do wish they offered ground taco meat - I like that in my burritos . I had the shredded beef -pretty good place for a fast food like burrito . Though the burritos are large and sometimes overstuffed - they could use more meat. Also they should offer a chicken tortilla soup and chili to go with it. For hot sauces they only offer Tabasco - would be cool if they upped their game here and added a few more choices - like maybe a salsa bar !! Wouldn't that be great!! read more

Wow I just picked up a bowl from Chipotle in Crystal City and I must say this is straight gross the meat chicken and Steak look so old the food is cold and I ask for lettuce and received nothing normally I would take this back but I'm pressed for time but I tell you what never again I wish I could give this zero stars this is so gross no professionalism at all you just don't do people like this and if this is your franchise demand better service from your employees this so shameful now I'm out of $12 dollars and still hungry damn!!!! read more

Chipotle Mexican Grill - Chicken and steak bowl with rice, black beans missing the lettuce - Mexican Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

Respect the line. The line here is extremely long always. It goes out the door at the peaks. But they keep it moving. The folks at Chipotle operate this like an assembly line moving the folks through as quickly as possible. And the food is really good. The burritos are tasty and full of flavor. read more

This last visit was the best meal/experience I've had at this location in years. The food was fresh and tasty with huge portions, staff was friendly and on their game and the place was even clean and well stocked. I don't know if they've had a management change or what was I was pleasantly surprised, keep up the good work. read more

I am extremely disappointed in my Chipotle experience at this location. I rarely give one star but I am so upset I can't imagine they would deserve anything better. I ordered ahead for a 12:15 pick up. My order was not in my hands until 12:25, this is not the end of the world, but annoying still. However, not only would it have been faster for me to go through the line and order the food in store, but my order was wrong! Seriously?? I paid extra for guac, there was no guac on my bowl.... I did not ask for lettuce, lettuce appeared on my bowl.... I am extremely upset about the guac and the slow service. I'm sure anyone out there can imagine the disappointment I felt when I opened my lid and saw lettuce, and not guac. The last place in the world I would want to order lettuce is at Chipotle, given their history. I'm soooo not likely to return. read more

Routinely out of ingredients. - Fajita vegetables out last 2 visits. - Black beans out today. If not completely out, then almost always have to wait for staff to make a refill of protein, vegetables or both. Even if short staffed for the lunch rush, better prep should reduce the backlog. read more

Been going to Chipotle for years. The food is pretty consistent but this review is going to be geared towards the customer service. I was going through the line and when it came to meat i told the lady helping me i wanted half steak half barbacoa. When she went to scoop the steak i noticed there were only a couple piece left in the tin. I ask if she had more and she very bluntly replied "NO" not a no sorry or oh let me check.. just no, and moved along. Wow.. i understand people have bad days..but this level of customer service is pretty appalling. Also not super related but my co worker got charged for guac and never received any. read more

Would not recommend ordering from this Chipotle for delivery, as the staff here will make whatever they want and are unable to accurately fulfill orders. On my recent order they did not include any beans, as requested, replaced the steak I ordered (for an extra charge) with chicken, and added mild salsa I did not order... just because ? This was one of many issues that occurred from this dining experience. The largest of which causes concerns for sanitary issues that should make customers think twice about ordering from this location (especially during a pandemic). There was a large "clump" of hair in one of the ordered bowls (pictured). This makes me doubt their staff is taking any measures to ensure safe food delivery. Their management also failed to resolve the issues we had with the food, and told us to "resubmit another order so they could make another" ... no thanks. I would suggest ordering from any other location or maybe a Chipotle alternative over this location. Stay safe. read more

Chipotle Mexican Grill - Bowl - Mexican Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

Okay. I am a die-hard Chipotle lover. Like I will forever love it no matter what. BUT... I have never had such a negative experience at a Chipotle in my life. And it was really only because of the horrible attitudes of all the people working. I honestly felt like I was asking the girl who was working to give herself a shot when I was asking for beans with my bowl. Like I wasn't doing anything out of the ordinary.. just ya know ordering like you do. But the girl was so irritated. I mean I get sometimes I don't want to work or do things either... but it was just bad. And I wish I could say she was the only one with a bad attitude.. but it seemed to be everyone working that day. The food was good like normal, however the chicken was not spiced at all and had no flavor today. IDK what the deal with this location is. But I was just super not impressed and left pretty disappointed. I would suggest they hire with caution and pick people who will help customers have a good experience. Before you eat the food, you get the service..and when it is so poor, the food doesn't taste quite as good. read more

Chipotle Mexican Grill - Mexican Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

This location is always rushing to get orders through which lacks quality. Today I ordered 3 tacos...they threw everything in them without paying attention to how they would overflow. They wrapped all 3 tacos together instead of individually. When I got to work they were a mess! I also bought chips and salsa so I turned everything that fell out of them into a nach supreme. QUIT RUSHING AND FOCUS ON QUALITY INSTEAD OF NUMBERS! read more

Chipotle Mexican Grill - Mexican Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

Best Chipotle in the area, I drive out of my way to go to this one. The 'potle here just hits different.

Terrible service. I get it it's chipotle but it's Friday lunch with three people in line (not busy in other words) and when I ask for sour cream, they are "out". Typically the employee gets more real quick but not these employees. She stares at me and says they don't have anymore. Disappointed I get my food and go eat. On the way out I noticed a full sour cream sitting there. Also asked for a kids meal for my daughter that comes with a cheese quesadilla. They gave my daughter an adult quesadilla with the kids plate. Just disappointing that there was no effort by the employees to correct any of these things especially when it was brought to their attention. 2 stars only because the chicken was good. read more

Chipotle Mexican Grill - Nice touch. - Mexican Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

Very small portions for how much you pay for. I've been to other Chipotles that gives you way more for your money. Why do I hardly have any meat? Doesn't listen to the customers. I asked for a tortilla on the side multiple times and still ended leaving with out. Poor customer service. read more

Great food at a great price. Clean restaurant and a friendly staff. My burrito was so large it was bursting open! Yummers! Steak burrito, white rice, black beans, fresh salsa, corn, cheese, guacamole (extra charge), lettuce. What a meal! read more
