Chicken Burritto

And to think that our group was going to go to chicano boy tacos instead. Great food, service and reasonable prices. Highly recommend!

I stopped in last week for late lunch. There's a hostess stand in the front, but, no one came up front to seat me. I decided to walk to the bar in the back because the bartender was the only person I saw in there besides a couple half way down seated at a booth. I ordered a beer and asked for a menu. After the bartender served my beer he disappeared and a waitress took my order. I never saw the bartender the rest of my meal. I would've ordered a second beer had he been at the bar any period of time. The waitress was pleasant did check on me twice. The restaurant looks like it was renovated on a shoestring budget. You can still see all the serving windows from when it was Cici's and if you don't walk around the restaurant to find someone, you probably won't get seated. The back bar was barely stocked and most were the same bottles and glasses just to fill in space. Bourbon selection was Jack Daniels or Jim Beam. Plenty of Jose though. Food was ok. Best part of the meal was the spicy salsa had some kick for once. The food was just ok and covered with melted cheese and very little sauce. That's a first and last visit for me

I have to rave about this place. The food is fresh and delicious. It's more like the Mexican food I'm used to. Service is always great too!

Solid, but not amazing food. Nice staff, quick service in a nice setting. They do takeout and are quick about it as well.

The service was quick and efficient! My chicken tacos were excellent and I love the lunch special…read moreprices. They have a great patio and fast service. I liked the radish on top of the taco and I liked the choice of salsa. My only complaint is the lime in the green sauce and guacamole. Lime should always, always, be served on the side. It's not appropriate in the food. It's always an add on in Mexican cooking. It's much too overpowering and ruins the flavor of the food. The food should stand on its own. I highly recommend a visit to this establishment!!

A stop into this taco place yielded a small shop, so takeout to the splendid nearby park was a good…read moredecision. They have two vegetarian tacos, and I rather liked the more "real food" sweet potato and black bean than their tofu taco, but both were delicious. Upon seeing they had a seasonal special salsa; I was glad I took the option to order it as it was delectable and I liked it enough to haul what I didn't use back with me to save for another day. Their rice and beans have a vegetarian option, and given the option for various indulgences, I went for a semisweet chocolate cake, the sprinkles on which were unnecessary but fun. The salt level in something (or everything) was excessive, which had me gulping water. And it's a shame, because they could dial it back and this would still be some quality food.

This location is crazy. Sometimes you get amazing food, sometimes it feels like they treat your…read moreorder as general guidelines for what you're actually going to get. It's always very slow. Tonight I got two kids meals, they're out of some items, fine we got replacements, that happens, they miss one drink. We ordered whatever fancy chicken limited time offer thing, everyone got the basic chicken. They loaded up the taco box's we got for the adults with enough cheese for probably like 29 tacos lol, then gave only some of the actual toppings we ordered in little cups. Meat portions were wildly different for all tacos. This was ordered in the app, so there were no communication issues. I think the move if you really want chipotle in Staunton is to ensure you dine in so you can verify you're getting what you ordered.

Pros: the staff are super nice. One even gave me a free little container of beans for my toddler…read morewhen I asked for them. Cons: The tables all needed to be bussed. And I mean ALL of them. The condiments were lacking, as there was literally one bottle of Tabasco out and there were no salt packets. ALL, and I mean ALL of the trash cans were full. At one point, my wife was puzzling over which of the three overflowing bins to throw the trash when an employee came walking toward her. "Oh, good," she thought. "He must be here to empty the bins." Nope, he passed right by and exited Chipotle and walked into Jersey Mike's next door. Also, the men's bathroom was in disgusting condition. There were no paper towels and the trashcan, like the rest of them, was filled to the brim. And the music deserves its own review, but I'll just tag a summary on the end of this one. Suffice it to say it was intrusive and obnoxious. One "song" was literally just a woman's auto-tuned chortle over a synth beat and I swear it was adversely affecting our toddler's eating, because as soon as we got him outside where we couldn't hear the music, he actually began to eat. Chipotle, do something about your environment. The tables were messy, the trash bins were overflowing, the bathrooms were gross, and the cacophony of noise played over the speakers did not qualify as music. The staff are nice, but things are not getting done. It just feels like they want to do the bare minimum.
