This is the second time I've come here in the past seven days. Usually, when I come back a second time in a week, I'm often disappointed, and whatever I purchased, but not here... This was just as good if not better than the first time that I ordered So, why do I like Qdoba? I like when you come in atmosphere is fun. They have Spanish music playing you going to queue. I like that. It is an assembly line type of place where you pick your rice. You pick your protein you pick your other ingredients. We all know the drill... But the ingredients just seem always fresh plus I like the flavor of their meat so far I haven't had any ultra leathery meat. It's always been soft and delicious with full of flavor. That's important. You get to add things like guac for no extra money whereas their competitor next-door-- that's an extra up charge over there, but not here!... If you join the rewards program, they'll get free chips and salsa. The salsa nicely made, and their a few to choose from, and flavorful. You can make your burrito or bowl of meal and that just adds a soda and some chips and salsa to whatever you purchased and you end up saving a lot of money. I believe the one I got four days ago came out to like 13 plus due to tax. I was really pleased with the cost and the bowl is huge. Just huge... Definitely can be made into two meals. I'm very happy that there's a Qdoba less than 2 miles away from my house. I will be back. read more

Gotta write another review of this place, my first time here I was really impressed, and I still am for the food. However I'm back today, seem like they got a new guy behind the counter, also I assuming the cashier is the manager of a trainer, he kept on ordering the two people behind the counter what to do, not professional at all, the way he telling them in front of the customer like he want to show his power over them. Anyway, I got in line, I assuming the guy behind the counter is new, cuz the cashier guy kept on telling him to do things, I ordered the blow, add on this, add on that, but the guy look like he's new and careful what he is doing, giving me the blow so little of everything. So if you all go there, hopefully you don't get the same guy, or you probably have to stop by another place for more food before you head home The guy is black, same as the cashier. I probably won't be back at this location, I still support QDOBA, they do have good food, but if I run into the same probably next time, I won't be back to any QDOBA at all, good luck to you all read more

Great job at this location. The portions were good on the pick 2 options. Both got the half bowl & small question combo. The shredded beef was so good & fajita veggies made it perfect. Love that you can add any toppings for free like guac or queso or tortilla strips. All items were tasty & fresh. Servers were nice. Price wasn't bad either. They beat chipotle. read more

Oh wow! I LOVE Qdoba SO MUCH!!! I drove out of my way tonight. My son is super happy with his Bowl with chicken. But holy cow... My Surf & Turf Bowl is INCREDIBLY DELICIOUS!!! I think I want to go for seconds!! The steak is cooked perfectly. The shrimp is fresh! So so so good! And your employees are such good people. Excellent customer service! I'm coming back tomorrow. Nice job Qdoba! read more

Wish I came here sooner! Much better than chipotle, thank god! Will definitely replace our weekly chipotle dinner and we'll be coming here instead. Tastier, higher quality, and overall better service. read more

Consistently good quality, portions, and customer service. I used to love Chipotle but it's always hit or miss. This location has always been great - especially the meats and how they are cooked read more

FOOD WAS GREAT, HOT, FRESH. Most importantlay I am a vegan and The gentleman at the counter named Cameron was kind and polite and walked me through all of the vegan options there were to choose from. That young man needs a raise!! read more

This Qdoba catered an event at our house and it was awesome. The food was delivered on time, it was hot and was completely set up for us! I would highly recommend catering from these guys to anyone! Thank you and Great job! read more

They've never gotten my order wrong and have always given great proportions. They are very friendly and it's always clean. They also have pretty reasonable prices as well. Never too long of a wait either. read more

It's been a while since we have eaten here. It was nice! Tried the Jarritos Mango soda, it was amazing!!! Still enjoy the chicken bowl but, still wish they had or would bring back the tequila chicken! Miss the drunken hard bird. It was still good though. The staff seemed a but stressed but in decent spirits ,which was nice. So, a thank you to them for everything. read more

QDOBA Mexican Eats - Mexican Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

I know most people are obsessed with Chipotle but I'm a Qdoba girl through and through. Portions are way bigger, flavors are better, and the prices are as well. I always get a quesadilla and this time I got chicken and added some brown rice. Their quesadillas are so cheesy unlike the other place. I also love their queso which we had today. Any day I get to come here is a good day! read more

Quick, tasty, and fairly healthy. Got a kid's quesadilla meal for Baby K, Sweetie got her standard chicken and veggie bowl. I got the Cholula "sweet and spicy" chicken which sounded good, with guacamole, queso, brown rice, etc. Tender chicken, a good sweet flavor, not hot at all. I did add spicy queso, which had a nice medium heat. Veggies were fresh. Service was great. Prices are reasonable. read more

Hello all, Wanted to give an update here as I typically only give a 1-star a few times a year BUT this one needs another firm 1-star. The "reaching out" is a PR stunt and despite getting super sick at this location they never responded despite this boiler plate message. Bad experience. And even rougher follow up. read more

It's Qdoba. There was no line. Ordering was uneventful. They appear to be taking health seriously. I got both guacamole and queso. The chicken on the bowl travelled well. The chips were crisp, the guacamole was green and vibrant. $8.10 per entree is a bit pricey, but receipts offer surveys to drive repeat business. read more

QDoba is 1000 times better than Chipotle. I wish there were more than three in the Columbus area, but they obviously do not have the gargantuan advertising budget that Chipotle has. All of their food is far more delicious in every way. If you have not tried it, do not waste anymore time. The next time you are heading toward Chipotle, bypass it and go to the nearest Qdoba. read more

It would appear that no one here is able to fold a burrito in such a way that makes it eatable as a burrito. If I had wanted a bowl, I would have ordered one. But I wanted a burrito that I could eat with my hands, and it was completely over stuffed to the point to where it couldn't be folded. Either get bigger tortillas, or put less stuff in the burrito, or teach your employees how to fold a burrito. This is a problem that I have consistently here. read more

QDOBA Mexican Eats - Mexican Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

This is one of the places that you order at one end of the counter and add stuff to your meal as you go and pay at the end. It was very simple and easy to do. The tables were clean and booths comfortable. Parking was plentiful. 3 often 4 walls were complete glass windows floor to ceiling. Great for a sunny warm day! Food was average fast casual Mexican read more

They have different staff today and I think they are new. I do not mind people trying to learn. But if an employee took things for granted the job then it is a problem. For some reason the Guy tossed the guacamole and missed my taco. The guacamole ended up on the side of my taco. I will still go there. read more

Wanted a burrito but was looking for a change from Chipotle. And Moes was not anywhere around where is was. So I stopped into Qdoba. Everything at first glance was pretty much the same as the other build your own burrito joints. A few different items the others didnt have, and some items missing. Which was fine, the balance was good. I ordered a burrito to eat there. I got all the ingredients i wanted, plus queso... which i believe was no extra charge (i didnt get charged if I was supposed to....shhhhh), unlike the other places. Sat down to eat. The place was very clean and the decor was very nice. TVs playing to watch during meal. Was very impressed with the tightness of my burrito. Was wrapped better than it has ever been at the other places. Made it very easy to eat. And the flavor was very nice. I enjoyed every bite. Will have to add Qdoba into my burrito rotation. read more

The food is always fresh and delicious! The service is top notch, everyone is smiling and friendly! Always feel welcomed every time I go there! Best in class! read more

Qdoba is way better than chipotle or any other type of Mexican Americanized food. This location is the perfect spot for Qdoba. I came back from a vacation from Turkey after a whole week where delicious food there is just kabob and rice. I lost 2 1/2 pounds while I was there because of a stomach virus and the lack of variety when it comes to food. After I recovered, I was craving the sweet taste of Qdoba only to come back to my favorite spot. Keep up the good work and thank you for everything! read more

While this chain is known by some as the poorer brother of a wider known chain of this style of food it's the little differences that get me through the doors here. The usual cafeteria style service here as you build your meal along the counter and it all depends on people that know what they are serving in places like this. The folks building my burrito were quick and helpful in explaining my options here. I love that they offer choices of heated sauces like ancho chile bbq and mild and spicy queso. Plus a nice selection of fresh salsas from mild to painful and sweat inducing that will fit most tastes round out almost anything you can create here. And it's bonus time here since they don't charge for extras like guacamole and are willing to customize if you want more or less of something without instantly being upcharged for it. I scored my big 'ol grilled chicken burrito and scuttered to a table in the large, clean and well lit dining area. During my visit they seemed to keep the dining area and drink station well maintained which is always worth an extra star from me in these places. My choices turned out to be one delicious, well rolled burrito and added this location to another place I'll visit again soon in my neck of the woods. read more

QDOBA Mexican Eats - The Smothered Burrito, grilled chicken, bacon jalapeno queso and topped with a dark mild chili sauce. My choice of fillings... - Mexican Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

Stopped in yesterday to check out the new jalapeno/bacon queso that was announced last week. It was everything I expected and more! I went with the standard chicken burrito bowl with rice, beans, salsa, sour cream, cheese, and guacamole. Delicious how all of the flavors blend together. Everything tastes so fresh. I got an order of chips to go with my queso. I was pleasantly surprised to find it had good sized chunks of bacon along with the spice from the other peppers. HEAVENLY for bacon and cheese fanatics like myself! The original queso was fantastic enough but Qdoba has really outdone themselves with the addition of the Diablo(spicy) and now the bacon versions. I was sad that they took the Ancho-Chile BBQ sauce off of the menu but I was comforted by the fact that they had a few new sauces for the smothered burritos. If you are a regular like myself get a rewards card that you scan and earn points towards free food:) read more

QDOBA Mexican Eats - New Jalepeño/Bacon Queso!! - Mexican Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

Love it. It is better than Chipotle, I drove past at least 2 of them to get to Qdoba. The service was quick and everyone was nice. The prices are comparable to Chipotle, but Qdoba has one thing they don't...a rewards card. I have already gotten free queso and chips, free chips and salsa, and I am only only one visit away from a free entree. Also on my next visit I get a free chips and salsa again. They even have daily specials at this location. The Wednesday deal is great $5 for entree and drink that's at least a $3 savings. Plus I got reward points towards a free entree...Awesome. I picked up dinner for my folks and myself and it was only $15 and some change. I got the old reliable naked queso steak burrito. My pops got a naked steak burrito with the new diablo queso and my mom got the hard tacos with seasoned beef. Everything was good as always. I will be back...again and again...and again. read more

Always great, friendly, and accurate service. Food is always fresh and delicious! I'm a regular customer and will continue to be one.

I just ordered great food at Polaris! Time to go right up and #SkipTheLine! https://t.co/2vyZ9EbERu haha more like show up and they tell you it's going to be an hour. You'll take my money right away, but not give me my food. WORST EXPERIENCE EVER! If I could give negative stars I would. Dont have an online system that allows you select times and pay if you wont be ready when you show up. read more

Needs 0 stars, corn tortillas taste like paper. QDOBA tastes like someone scooped the leftovers out of chipotles dumpster and served it the next day. I'll never go back. read more

QDOBA in general, is a good chain restaurant. My last two visits to this particular location had some flaws however. First visit ended with bad service and the feeling of being rushed through the line even when me and my wife had a question about our meal options. Luckily, we called to notify management of the experience and they were very apologetic and invited us back to give them a chance to make it right. So we returned and had a much better service and the food was almost perfect. (Taco shell bowl was a little soggy). All in all I'll be back since I live close by and manager made an effort to earn our business again. read more

People wake up Qdoba is going out of business. Terrible service....miserable and untrained staff. Extra cheese means 1oz more serious WTF and prices are high Used my gift card... Threw the remaining 1.40$ in the garbage and said forget this joke read more

Quick and easy place to stop for lunch. Always clean and friendly service. I have to give 5 stars for their use of plastic alternatives. Bring back the tequila lime chicken! read more

For some insane reason I'd convinced myself that my problems with Qdoba stemmed from the Graceland location, and I would be okay eating here. WRONG. If anything, my experience at this location of Qdoba was actually worse! 1. The guy behind the counter couldn't understand my order (which was tacos with corn tortillas instead of flour) and instead of asking me to repeat, just gave me flour tortillas then proceeded to talk bad about me under his breath. WTF? All I wanted was a different kind of tortilla! That isn't brain surgery. 2. Attitude from the cashier. I told the guy I needed to pay for the food after me too, but he rang me up and gave me a total anyway, with just my food. And this wasn't an issue of a language barrier. He spoke perfect English. He was just a jerk. 3. No trays! We had several different dishes since we'd ordered chips and salsa along with our meal, plus food for a toddler, and they had no trays so we had to make two trips. Then more trips to get drinks and it was just annoying. So yeah. Qdoba is now completely out for me, and unless you feel like spending your lunch hour annoyed, it should be out for you too! read more

Not impressed The total bill was $17.44, WOW!!! for 2 subpar salads, chips & salsa. Our FIRST visit to Qdoba, My wife & I were not impressed, and we would not recommend this restaurant. We visited during peak dinner time and there was only a couple people in the restaurant, I should have known better and just walked back out but we decided to try it anyway. I checked Yelp later and found this location has only 2.5 stars. We both ordered the Chicken Taco Salad -It was not very tasty. and the Chips & Salsa (chips were nice with a hint of lime, but the salsa was not very fresh) The chicken was not flavorful and didn't seem fresh (like reheated leftovers) the black beans were bland, the whole salad was a disappointment. In addition only certain toppings are included. It would cost extra to add vegetables?? We had 2 salads, chips & Salsa & 2 waters. No tray was provided so we had to make several trips to get all of our items to a table. read more

My experience at this location makes me sad. I had previously complained about the food and the presentation here. The steak was old/tough and the "salsa" you would normally get was cut and presented so unappetizing that I had to complain to corporate about it. I then receive a "free entree" card from corporate due to my complaint. I ordered an "entree" and then added the guacamole to the order. They had the NERVE to charge me for the extra even though it was part of my "entree". Well apparently it is not and I was schooled on the RULES of Qdoba by to my surprise the owner. He had the gall to stand there and not only lecture me but try to compete with how Chiptole handles their complaints which is with GRACE. He finally succumbed probably due to the shear look of shock on my face- you must really need that $1.80 more than I do clearly for such a fight. The food presentation- ATROCIOUS still...even after 2 weeks. The shredded cheese was LITTERED with debris of every other food item and they MUST find another way to not only cut but present their salsa- I did a second pass AGAIN today. I will NEVER go to this location again- my money will not line the wallet of this owner who clearly not only lacks customer service skills 101 but also fresh food. FYI- Chipotle is right across the street:) read more

This is a very tasty alternative to traditional fast food restaurants. My lunch was quick but it was also delicious. I loved the smokey cheese sauce it had just a nice little kick to it. Just enough to make you pay attention. Overall a great lunch spot for sure. read more

I actually had a great experience with Qdoba, I am really surprised by the other reviews. I ordered the taco bar for 10 people today and was really impressed with the food and service. The taco bar came with very large portions and a ton of condiments. It could easily feed 20 people It was a big hit! I also had the gumbo, which was delicious. I definetly like this place better than chipotle. The manager told me that they would also deliver and set up.. The prices were also very reasonable...I highly reccomend! read more

The food and options are great. Especially if you are wanting something different than Chipotle. Only thing that rubs me the wrong way is the speediness of the staff. Recently we ordered using the Qdoba app. This is easy to do and allows us to skip the line and pick up our food fast. This is the second we ordered through the app and our food was still not ready at the pick up time. I arrived at 2:50pm and didn't leave until 3:10pm. Our pick up time was set at 2:50pm and when approaching the pick up area, our food was not even started. It would be different is the place was overcrowded and had a line out the door, but this was not the case. There may have only been a few people east and no one in line... I walked in before another customer, and they started their order first. They did offer me a drink while I wait as if I was at the doctors office waiting on my results and did apologize but the whole point of ordering through a mobile app is to be speedy. My advice: just go in and order, don't use the app! read more
