QDOBA Mexican Eats - 12.89 bowl, where is the chicken? - Mexican Near Me - Manassas, Virginia

Today I went to QDOBA and had a great experience. Karen provided excellent service--she was very attentive, friendly, and always had a smile. The food was delicious. I will definitely be coming back to this restaurant, and I would be happy to be served by Karen again. Her attention and kindness made my first visit a very enjoyable experience. read more

Anna and the other ladies are so friendly! My bowl was so filling and the chips and queso was . Be back soon!

Biting into the burrito, and getting a mouthful of brisket, cheese, and rice felt like the closest thing I will ever get to tasting gourmet food. The workers were friendly, and the dark lighting felt super comfortable. 8/10, would eat here again. read more

NOT COVID 19 SAFE. THEIR SNEEZE GAURD WINDOW IS TWO SEPARATE PIECED. leaving about a 5 inch gap open to displaying food. Why they have not closed off the gap in a pandemic is beyond me. Yet that wasn't why I chose to leave. No guests had on masks while ordering food over the sneeze guard. One guy even took his mask off to lean in and speak with one of the workers on the line. Both workers were wearing masks but didn't seem bothered by people ordering without one. When I asked if it was mandatory she looked at me and looked away. People are literally Dieng due to this virus. I have a huge youtube platform and I will be sure they are aware of the lack of sanitation at this location. We trust you with our money. Can't trust you with our lives.. horrible dirty place with no customer service. read more

Thought it was good that chipotle now has Competition across the street off library Avenue but I was really disappointed in the taste of their burritos and they also gave one of our burritos to somebody that just walked in with a call in order,so they had to remake it so there's more time waiting. Sorry ,but I was very disappointing in this place. read more

I have been to this Qdoba about 8 times over the past 8 years. If you ask me all of their meats, rice, toppings, and queso are much better than Chipotle, which is basically across the street from Qdoba. Now, if you go to Chipotle, they are busy all of the time. Every time I have been to Qdoba, it's empty??? My experienced guess.... TOTAL RUDENESS! EVERY SINGLE TIME I've been there it's been hard to keep myself from letting them know how rude they are and how it sends to be hurting their business. When approaching the counter, I get a blank stare or the look of why are you here. Not hello, not what can I get for you but more of a look like why are you here. There's a huge communication gap with a language barrier also. I ask for a bowl with white rice and she starts to scoop the brown rice. I asked for Shredded beef and she starts to scoop ground beef. And please don't ask the different kinds of unmarked salsa!! . Now she's really bothered! When asking for cheese and sour cream, it is like I've now asked for too much. Really, it's a bowl with a couple of toppings! Their food is great, but management really needs to work on welcoming customers. That's just the bottom line of why their business is not able to keep up with Chipotle and they aren't getting enough business. 5 stars for the food, and ZERO stars for service, and the unwelcoming attitudes! This is a repeat of at least 8 times or more, and I finally had to let it be said! read more

The primary reason why I came here because I couldn't find Chipotle nearby. It was a blessing because there was no line and no waiting!! A/C was blowing super cold air and the drinks were refreshingly cold and good. ON a 100F day this is a happy place to be. They have flat screens playing mostly univision's telenovelas. I liked the taco salad light and fresh. read more

Customer service here is always great. They're always friendly, and always load up your stuff with what you want. I do have to say, it's not better than Chipotle... But really, what is!? They usually have pretty good coupons floating around, so google it before you go. read more

Other than the Spanish music that I can not understand, this place rocks! They have cool specials throughout the year like 50% with college ID on some nights, Free kids meals with adult entree purchase Fri-Sun and I've even seen them flip a coin to see if your meal is discounted/free! And you cannot beat the Chips and Queso! It's freakin awesome! read more

I really hate being this person, but this was my first time getting Qdoba and ordering off their app. I know I am picky eater which is why i like to order things on apps/online. & Why i like places where you could build your own bowls. Unfortunately, I ordered no beans for my bowl and there were beans everywhere. I know i'm being dramatic when i say i hate beans but i literally do hate beans and can't eat anything with them. I didn't notice the beans until i got home. read more

If you are catering and order fajitas meal for 30 people -don't assume it comes with peppers & onions... a standard on fajita plates right? Nope and they won't remind you and tell you it has to added separate. Let's go ahead and set up for party and realize something is missing and it dawns on you... so you have to eave party and drive to get/explain/have them cook it up and charge you for it. Wasn't that fun? Nope! Food tasty but double your quantity for meats - not nearly enough for 30. read more

food was good, not going to lie. the ambient was good as well but the service from the server was horrible. our female server was giving bad stares to my wife and it made her feel uncomfortable. read more

Great food every time!! I downloaded their app and this time my meal was FREE!! Extremely nice ladies work here! read more

Food smells good,but everything tastes burned. I'd like my fajita veggies to have veggies flavor, but they always just tastes burned. I also dislike eating out a dog bowl that is lined with a piece of paper. You can't cut it without tearing the paper. Then you have to pull it off of your food before you eat it. It's overpriced and they are stingy with their burnt veggies. I probably won't be back. I've tried numerous times and it's always the same. read more

I stopped in for lunch on a weekday... it wasn't busy at all inside. It's been a couple of years since last stopping in and that's mainly because the last experience wasn't that good. This one really wasn't much different. The service was just ok, nothing special. The food selections are good, definitely better than Chipotle, but the quality and flavor of the food wasn't very good at all. It was very bland. Their "homemade" jalapenos were the tastiest thing I had in my rice bowl. The chicken had no flavor at all. It was a waste of money. read more

There is nothing special about this Qdoba... I think they play their iPods inside because its either some crazy club music with all the inappropriate words still in it and I look around like "UHMM there are children in here...?" Then sometimes they play all spanish music really loud and I have no clue what they are saying but I guess its better than inappropriate words in a family establishment. If you try to go in and eat after 830pm, they automatically start trying to pack your meal to go, even though they close at 10pm. I told them one time that I was eating here not to-go. and they continued to insist that I take it to go.. After that experience, I have never really been happy with this location. read more

3.5 Stars for Qdoba - one of the many "assembly line" Tex-Mex chains found in Manassas and the DMV. And in my hierarchy of those establishments, Qdoba is at the bottom. However, I visit Qdoba more than their competitors because for a few reasons. First is accessibility - Cafe Rio and California Tortilla are on the opposite side of town, and Chipotle is in an awkward location that makes it a pain to get in and out of. The second is that they stay open until 10PM on weeknights, which makes them a go to option after a late night at work. And the last and most prevalent reason - the wife likes Qdoba better than Chipolte. One of my friends loves Qdoba and calls it "a more flavorful Chipotle" but my wife finds the meats at Chiptole to be too spicy for her. (She is EXTREMELY spice sensitive) I don't really find one more flavorful than the other, but the meat quality at Chipotle is better. That's why I give Qdoba 3.5 stars - sometimes I'll get some stringy or chewy bits in the shredded beef or carnitas. Usually it's when I come in after 9:30PM, but I expect the same quality 10 minutes before closing that I would get during prime lunch/dinner hour. Last week I went to Cafe Rio 5 minutes before they closed, and there was no loss of overall quality. Still, I think Qdoba is quite tasty and their burrito bowls have been a staple in my diet for the past few weeks. But there is nothing unique about Qdoba that makes you want to drive out of the way for them. Add in the factor of occasional dips in meat quality ... I can't rate them more than 3.5 stars. read more

Real life Scrooges, the workers here. I don't know how they have such decent ratings (yeah, this is "decent" for that branch). I don't know how they manage to stay in business... Ah, skimping on ingredients is how. To the ladies manning the production line, asking for more is a death sentence. They'll glare at you as they scoop the slightest amount and dropping it onto whatever you're ordering, with an attitude. I'd been singing about tacos and quesadillas all day, and was originally planning on getting something like 10 tacos, 3 quesadillas, and 3 taco salads (I wasn't going to eat all that by myself). I know this joint can be expensive, and that the grub isn't the best, but it's fast, and I really wanted fast tacos. I only got 2 quesadillas and two salads. Mostly because although Qdoba closes at 10 on Sunday's, and I was in around 7 PM, they refused to prepare extra steak, and told me they didn't have any more steak. These women give you evil eyes if you complain to them directly... So I just didn't bother with my original plan. Because of chipotle having E. coli issues, I'd visited Qdoba instead. If Chipotle didn't have issues, I'd have spent the money there, rather than at Qdoba, as no one wants to pay to keep Scrooges in business if they can help it. Qdoba, you missed out on a bigger income, simply because your workers are lazy, unfriendly, old Scrooges. Maybe hire friendlier workers. I dunno how they're still employed; Qdoba must have the laziest HR department in the country. Food was okay, but could have been better. read more

I can't help but compare Qdoba to Chipotle, I realize these places aren't twins, but they are kind of food cousins so I find it impossible to review without the inevitable comparison of burrito bowls! The chips. Chipotle's are better, hands down. They are crispier, fresher, salted better, and spritzed with heavenly lime juice. Now, I am a corn salsa fan... and I think Chipotles is much better than Qdoba, (way too many raw red peppers), but the queso at Qdoba is fantastic. It is creamy, flavored well, and full of roasted peppers and such. The rice, it's better at Chipotle, they add cilantro and lime to theirs, sadly, and the comparison is to sad, uneventful plain rice... The steak, cooked and seasoned better at Chipotle. Cheese options, Qdoba puts that yummy queso on their bowls... which is pretty damn awesome! Beans... it's a tie. I get black beans, and to me, beans are beans! The portion size.... Both of them serve enormous burritos, the bowls at Chipotle are considerably larger then Qdoba though. If these places are side by side, I think I would rather choose Chipotle. Overall they have a better flavor, it's a better value. Bowl, Chips, Drink at Qdoba, $14.00 / Same at Chipotle, $10.00. However... Qdoba has a BOGO deal on Tuesday nights, from 3-10pm you get one meal and one half off. I get dinner and lunch the following day for about $15.00 (sans the chips), and you really can't beat something half off. This place is pretty yummy; I just think I am a Chipotle girl!! read more

I stopped here tonight for a pull pork Ancho Chille BBQ burrito. I wasn't very impressed with the burrito. The tortilla itself was doughy and undercooked. The pork was low quality and fatty. The sauce flavor was inconsistent and too little of it. There were some bites where you could taste the chocolate (as advertised) and other bites you couldn't taste any chocolate. The size of the burrito was decent and it was prepared in a timely manner, and kept warm in the wrapping. I probably won't go back by my choice but I wouldn't object if I was with a group of people. One thing to note is that google and apple maps do not have the correct directions. read more

QDOBA Mexican Eats - Pork Ancho Chile Bbq Burrito - Mexican Near Me - Manassas, Virginia

My fiance and I tried this for the first time last Monday (2/7/2011). We were expecting it to be just okay and not as good as Chipotle. Boy were we wrong! My fiance got the naked burrito with chicken. I got the naked burrito with pulled pork. We both fell in LOVE with their queso. Their chips were so fresh and weren't covered in salt like Chipotle's. The rice isn't as good as Chipotle's but, that is my only complaint. We liked it so much, we went back the following day for dinner as well. I have been counting my calories every day and this fits perfectly into meal plan. It's not terrible for you and if you plan it right, you will do fine with the sodium. I can't express how good their queso is and it was even better on Day 2. Their chips were so warm and fresh! I recommend it highly! read more

It's good food it's just a price your version of chipotle not bad overall. Tacos are good the burrito are pretty good their spicy queso is definitely better than Chipotles read more

I'm starting to like Qdoba better than Chipotle. Well.. I don't know. They are both similar and both unique. Qdoba has more choices/variety. If you're looking for just a burrito, then go to Chipotle. But if you're looking for a quesadilla (spelling?) or mexican gumbo.. then try out Qdoba. This location Manassas will give you $2 off if you buy entree/drink and show a school ID. The other Qdoba that I've gone to doesn't have this deal. I am not sure how long they will be doing this, but it's not bad. It's basically giving you a free drink since the $2 discount and drink costs about the same. read more

Great selection of toppings! Everything they have has a lot of flavor and just enough spice. Really good quality chicken - no fatty or grisly pieces and a mix of white and dark meat. Love the shell bowl option and the texture and thinness of the tortillas. It's a little pricey for the portions but definitely worth it! This location is clean and the staff is so friendly :) Go ahead and make the switch from Chipotle. read more

QDOBA Mexican Eats - Yummy bowl filled to the brim $9.90 - Mexican Near Me - Manassas, Virginia

This place is terrible, they don't participate in qdoba promotions. Staff is cold. Go to chipotle across the street instead.

I always have a good experience coming here. If you're not a fan of Chipotle, then I suggest Qdoba. They are quite similar, although I personally find Qdoba to have fresher and better tasting food overall. It's a very clean restaurant, with a polite staff. I've never had any problem ordering my food. I usually get a burrito, with white rice, black beans, chicken, steak, queso, shredded cheese and sour cream. I keep it simple, but it never disappoints. The price isn't bad for the amount of food you get. Their burritos and bowls are usually very filling, it obviously depends on the ingredients you actually add. They have a variety of choices on their menu from burritos, tacos, nachos, tortilla soup, etc. read more

Better than Chipotle! Fresh food all the time. The severs are so kind. The food is delicious.

Bad flavor food ...the guacamole was very dark , the portions are very small , very expensive, service was blah

Came here with my fiance for lunch last weekend. The food was def. pretty good and they have a larger variety (which I like) than Chiptole (which I still love). They have signature burritos or you can also make your own too. They also have this "Craft 2 Meal" for $5.99 where you can pick 2 items to build your own meal (kind of like Panera's half soup/half sandwich meal). Initially, I didn't think I would get full because the portions are small for each item, but after eating half of the quesadilla and half of the naked burrito, I was full. My fiance had to finish it for me (THANK YOU!!!) read more

I went into Qdoba on Sunday afternoon, 7/5/15 to grab a quick bite. I walk in, I'm the ONLY one in line and the lady behind the counter kept "playing" with tortillas, she walked back to the area where you pick up food to refill trays (didn't pick up anything) then came back to the front line and played with the tortillas again. All the while, NEVER acknowledging my presence until several more minutes passed. Then she FINALLY asked "may I help you?" I placed my order. Once I got to the register, I was about to pay and noticed she didn't give me my cup of guac. (There's a big sign hanging up in the restaurant that says every entree gets free guac). So I asked her for my guac. If I hadn't, I would not have gotten it. I'll go back to Chipotle next time since it's right across the street. They have much better customer service! read more

Yesss. Alternative of Chipotle! Been coming here once a week! Their sauces for their tacos are as great as Chipotle. Staff was friendly and place was clean. read more

Trying new mexican restaurants have always been sketchy to me since most places are totally different. This Qdoba is sooooo good, I love the queso, and everyone makes their Guacamole different but theres is perfect. I'm pretty sure their chips have lime flavor stuff on them and they're always warm and fresh. Qdoba also has many different choices compared to Chipotle. The service here is also great they always smile and most of the time have a sense of humor about things, which is what I always look for. read more

I will be completely honest, this is my favorite restaurant. I go here way too much! The employees are wonderful. The food is always delicious. Never usually have to wait long in line. It's very clean, compared to other Qdoba establishments. Love it! read more

One of the worst experiences ever! First off they never once told me how much extra everything was going to be, so I ended up spending $5 more just for toppings!! After I asked why it was so much they told me I had gotten a specialty burrito (untrue). When I told them I didn't order a specialty burrito the woman looked at me, and started to yell to the cashier "they did order (specialty burrito)! Now charge them!!" After we sat do to eat they sat in the back, thinking I didn't know any Spanish, started making fun of us. Apparently we weren't the first ones they had done this to, and they were laughing about how often it seemed to be happening!!! The pod was average, but not worth the nearly $20 I spent. I won't eat here again purely because of the terrible service! read more

They closed 12 minutes early... food is normally good though, but they close at least 5 minutes early every night.

This place isn't awful. I went for lunch on my break from work and ordered online to skip the line. I received my food and it was ready when I got it, but it was not what I ordered at all. It was the opposite. I had to walk back and ask them to change it. For my troubles, they could've thrown in a free drink or at least a discount but oh well. There were children running around the kitchen so I suppose they had their hands full. My coworker also ordered from them and at the time of pickup they hadn't made it yet. Once I got the food though, it was good but it had such tiny proportions. You can definitely get more at Chipotle. read more

My fiancée and I come to this location on a semi-regular basis. Our go-to item on the menu is the taco salad and we have yet to be disappointed. The burritos aren't bad but they'll do the trick in a pinch. We appreciate not having to wait in a ridiculously long line for our food even during peak times. We have yet to experience any customer service issues as the staff is polite and keep the line going at a reasonable pace. While I enjoy chipotle as much as the next person, I'll usually pick this Qdoba instead. read more

I love this place and their food but the wait staff are ridiculously inconsistent. I ordered online today at 11:13 am. The confirmation time said it would be ready at 11:30 am. I leave my job and walk in at 11:30 am to one customer speaking with the cashier. Nothing was ready. The server hadn't even taken the orders off of the receiving device. Then she proceeded to tell me that I shouldn't have ordered my chips on the side - it was nachos and who wants soggy nachos. She filled the orders but I had to wait to wait 15 minutes. The whole point of online ordering is speed of service and convenience. They didn't apologize for my wait! Didn't even offer me as much as a drink!! I know I'll go back but I'm completely disgusted by their lack of customer service. read more
