**GREAT MEXICAN STYLE FAST CASUAL RESTAURANT** **EXCELLENT OPTIONS FOR HEALTHY EATING** NOT A FAN OF THOSE OTHER PLACES I don't know about you, but I'll visit Chipotle, or Moe's maybe once or twice a year. And believe me, I want to like what's being served there, as it seams to be a healthy choice. But the limited options, and mediocre taste keeps me away. But on the other hand, if it's lunchtime, I know I can count on Qdoba to supply me with a healthy and tasty meal. And the concept here is fast casual -like Chipotle or Moe's - but it's a wonderfully upgraded experience. WHAT'S IT ALL ABOUT When ordering, the options are Bowls, Burritos, Tacos, Quesadillas, and a unique Loaded Tortilla Soup. However, that's where the simplicity ends, as there are a large number of choices available to customize your meal. But most importantly, what really makes this restaurant shine over the others, is the quality of the food. The multiple protein options are tender, savory and seasoned perfectly, while the vegetables and multiple toppings are super fresh tasting. And the other prepared items, such as the rice, beans, taco shells, and tortillas are all very well made. OH THOSE PROTEINS! As I mentioned, a factor that really sets Qdoba apart from the competition, are the fantastic protein options. The Grilled Adobo Chicken is tender and flavorful, the Cholula Hot & Sweet Chicken has a nice kick, the Grilled Steak is cooked perfectly, and the Birria Brisket, and Pork Carnitas are very tasty. Then there's also a nice Ground Beef, and an Impossible Meat available. Even more, there are rotating specials such as Habenero Lime Steak, and Citrus Lime Shrimp to help switch things up a bit - which you never have the option to do at those other places. SOMETHING ELSE Another item unique to Qdoba is the fantastic Loaded Tortilla Soup. It starts out with a mild spicy broth flavored with vegetables and spices. Then goes in your choice of proteins, rice, beans and whatever additional items you want to load the soup up with. And this soup can even be ordered inside a crunchy tortilla bowl, that can be devoured after the soup's finished. DELICIOUS AND HEALTHY If you're dieting like me, or pursuing healthy eating, Qdoba allows for the creation of a tasty low fat or low carb meal inside of a bowl, or in the form of a soup. And this for sure, grants a much needed break from the never ending salads with grilled chicken that many of us have to endure. And at the same time, a lunch buddy not counting calories can indulge in a hearty quesadilla or stuffed burrito. DISCOVER THE DIFFERENCE If you've never visited Qdoba, and have instead been frequenting other fast casual joints like Chipotle or Moe's, I guarantee you will be pleasantly surprised here - as I was the first time I gave it a shot. And because of everything mentioned above, this restaurant will always be part of my regular lunch rotation as it satisfies me on so many different levels. And now, on top of everything else, Qdoba recently begun offering free guacamole with any entree, which is almost always a welcome addition. So above all my advice is, come to Qdoba, and discover the difference. read more

Probably the best Qdoba I've ever been to. Staff is always pleasant and nice and attentive. Store is always clean. Food is always on point and better than expected and piping hot! This store should be show cased to all Qdobas over the island for training on what to do. Love this place read more

Quick, nice employees! Food tasted fresh. Glad that guacamole is included. I got a salad with habanero lime steak- not too spicy, but that's me! Really hit the spot after a long day of volunteering. read more

My boyfriend and I finally made it here for dinner. We passed by nearly every day and always forgot about it being so close. We had a delish dinner. We both had burrito bowls and customized it to our liking. The bowl was so filling I couldn't finish it. When I was customizing my bowl I asked how spicy the chicken was. I told the worker that I like spice, but was just curious. She gave me a generous sample to try the spicy chicken to see if it was to my liking. Talk about drawing a customer in. That was so thoughtful. Safe to say I went with the spicy chicken as my protein. My boyfriend and I both enjoyed our bowls! We will absolutely come back again for lunch or dinner. read more

did a mobile order first time here was on time and the food was a nice portion. only issue was the soda machine seemed more carbonation than flavor. read more

Here's the Scoop! My honey and I passed this place many times. So we decided to give it a try. A pleasant surprise! Our thought was another Moe's or Chipotle. But yes, it's similar to the ordering process where you're layering protein, veggies, carbs etc. the difference here is the meats, beans were seasoned to perfection. No need for salt or anything. Just bless the food and eat! So, so tasty! I got the pulled pork, rice and beans, onion, lettuce, guacamole, tomato and sour cream on the side. My my my so good. The restaurant is very clean. Nice size booths, high table seating as well. The booths have TV monitors which was lovely. The colors are earth tones which is very nice. My honey ordered the chicken with rice & beans, lettuce, guacamole, tomatoes and peppers. We both enjoyed our meal and the comfortable booth. Check out my pics attached. Plenty of private parking available and they cater. read more

Never. Giving. Chipotle. My. Money. Again. This will basically be just a comparison to their rival. I decided to try this place out, on my way to a possible trip to Chipotle, basically almost next door to them.. So much cleaner inside, so much nicer, so many more options, so much more everything Chipolte isn't. I haven't heard of e.coli in their food either, so it's probably a good thing. They have a bigger menu than just burritos or a bowl. The options even have SHRIMP! They have multipe sauce options. Their chips didn't spoil a few hours later. It also didn't taste like I was eating a bowl of salt and my blood pressure was gonna sky rocket. I absolutely loved their food. They have quesadillas I want to try next time. Prices are slightly cheaper than Chipotle, too. The woman that made my food was EXTREMELY nice. The only thing I'd say a negative about this place, is the bowls won't close - they gotta get some better dishes. The lady had to tape my sides of the bowl and even still that didn't hold bc the bottom was warm and soggyish. As long as I'm living here, Qdoba hands down has my money over Chipolte!!!!!!! See you again soon. read more

Came here with a friend and got a burrito. It was good and made quickly, and the price was decent as well. I tried the queso but I don't think it was spicy enough, I'll definitely try the spicy one next time. Thanks! read more

Since you're wondering... I really can't say anything bad about this place but I do feel like something was missing flavor wise. The food was good, and I have had it a second time but something is missing. I ordered a Create your own Bowl with sweet & "spicy" chicken, seasoned brown rice, pinto beans, hot salsa, cheese, lettuce, and tomato. Also ordered the Spicy Queso with chips which I'd say were the star of the show. As far as the restaurant itself, he inside is nice and clean and the staff are fairly nice, especially the young man that has rang me up both times. It gives the vibe of chipotle but it missing the flavor of chipotle? I would definitely order the chips and queso again but may pass on the bowl. read more

Sometimes you want more than food inspired by food- you know? Like authentic food! QDOBA is what Chipotle was inspired to be like. Authentic! I created my own vegetarian bowl and was quite satisfied! I was a little surprised by the guacamole though- I felt it could've had a little more lime, cilantro and tomato but it still hit the spot. Overall, I will come and eat here when I'm in the area. The food is clean and delicious and the people greet you with a smile and a bless you before you walk out the door! That's an added special touch. read more

I've heard of this place and knew it was a chain. I heard it was similar to Chipotle, but it appeared to maybe be a little more premium. So my boss suggested it for lunch. I went to the website and saw delivery, which is always a plus. I put in several distinct orders and I liked the customization. I liked I could put names on the food, especially since one of my staff eats food that smells like pepper spray. I go to check out and the site froze. When I went back, the order was gone. After the third time, I used seamless. That's not a good sign. The food comes and I grab my order. It has all the ingredients. Everything is just kind of bland. The meat didn't have any flavor of its own. The whole meal was just blah. My coworkers were also disappointed by the lack of flavor. I was bummed out because I was excited to try them. The food seemed fresh. Our orders were correct. The ingredients just seemed to lack flavor. I don't plan on going back again. Cannot recommend. read more

I was passing by and visiting my daughter and her friends when I decided to try this place. The food is good and the servers nice and friendly. I'm only familiar with tacos and they recommended to try other Mexican dish and I did and it's delicious. I ended up ordering for 4 people since my daughter and her friends want to try too. read more

Beyond delish!! Staff was so nice. Made our quesadilla to order. Woman made it with love and split it for us. Love this place...always so nice!! read more

I love QDobo... if you like chipotle you are gonna love this place. It's way fresher,no extra charge for every minor thing and the beans do not look like ****. You gotta go try them out because they are pretty darn good. The manager and staff is awesome except for that one .. you know who you are. We had beef over a little extra beef. Come for me bro, nah I'm kidding we cool. Go get some !! read more

My order was with a group order today. I ordered a Protein Chicken Bowl. It looked amazing in the advertisement, in the menu, but the chicken was spongy and fatty covered in some brown sauce with sad fajita veggies that were slimy. Needless to say, I will find another Mexican style restaurant for take out in the future as I had to throw away food that was not befitting to feed a raccoon. read more

Kinda expensive but not too expensive and well worth it. you pay for quality food and this place has it .Food was absolutely fresh & the staff is great and super patient especially with me the confused newbie at ordering. I got a burrito bowl with chicken. Ummmm,heck yes. if you like Chipotle your gonna be like "Chipotle who" after having the Q. read more

I love their tacos/taco bowl. The chicken is fresh, the seasoning is amazing, the queso is creamy and flavorful. One of my favorite places to eat! read more

10/10 service and quality, way fresher than veggies than its competitors. A lot more veggie options. Price is very reasonable. And a great location too! read more

I didn't realize I needed this place in my life until it opened. I have dined in and regularly get takeout here. Really nice staff and manager (who helped me find my wallet when I dropped it inside). I have only gotten the chicken burrito bowl which I highly recommend. I have never been a Chipotle person(since I kinds feel all of their options taste the same. so I was surprised that I liked it so much. I do like the fact that quest and guac are included and the portions are large. (I usually have enough food for two meals). read more

This new Qdoba is absolutely beautiful inside and the food and service was top notch! Try their beef burrito, you'll thank me!

I ordered this from Uber eats and I ordered the chicken burrito meal and the steak burrito meal and the burritos were tasty! A lot of meat and beans and rice! The Chips and salsa was good but I haven't had this kind of salsa before because this kind of salsa is more liquidy and has a vinegar taste but didn't ruin the meal. And I had the cookie as well and it was good too. read more

I got the steak quesadilla and it tasted like dirty hotdog water. The food is soggy and heavily greased. There is no seasoning or flavor other than hotdogs! After two bites I felt nauseous. They got one star bc the queso dip was good. I'd never order from them again. read more

very friendly staff greeted me as soon as i walked in i had an issue with the app and the man wearing a maroon shirt very kindly helped me out, and also the food is amazing read more
