    This is the food I received from Qdoba today! The lid was open and the food was all over the package. I ordered through grubhub and they refused to refund me. This is not the first time my order from Qdoba has issues.

    The fixins' line.

    Been hearing people swear about this place for years. Being a lifelong Mexican enthusiast, I'm never all that inclined to do anything that remotely whiffs of "fast food" or fast casual "Tex-Mexy" kinda places. I make my own authentic Mex and nothing can top that. Plus, I'd already gotten the word that it was a Chipotle knockoff. This place only serves flour shells or hard-shelled corn tortillas, for example....which evidences my point about authenticity. I wanted to try a few tacos but not eating a shell of "Doritos", even though I like Doritos - just not on my taco. That said, this place is completely reminiscent of Chipotle as mentioned, only plus what appears to be fresher ingredients and minus repeated health code violations. The "bowl" here is even called a "Burrito Bowl", just like Chipotle and it's even referred to by the same name. You'd think that kind of thing would be trademarked or something. Qdoba started two years after Chipotle so they definitely [apparently] copied the formula. Similarly, the Burrito Bowl starts with a base of seasoned rice and you have them add the toppings of your choice as your bowl makes its way down the line to the cashier. No designation OR SIGN as to where to order as you snake around towards the register, btw. I ended up bypassing the order area and stopping at the cashier area....where I ended up waiting just long enough for a lady to come behind me - and start placing her LONG ASS order. I slid back to the "order area" muttering aloud that I overshot the target and welp....she kept ordering with nary a concern that I "technically" was ahead of her - even though she asked me what happened lol.*eye roll* It wouldn't kill them to post an ORDER HERE sign. Jeez. My bowl had the following: Rice, chicken/steak/50/50, fajita vegetables, corn, pico de gallo, guac, lettuce, shredded cheese, habanero salsa and jalapeno.... $9 and tax - generous portion size. Very simple, clean food.... especially good if you have certain food allergies or an aversion to greasy fast foods. I'll go back. I like them.

    Fast Food, Mexican Food I have never been here before and decided to try it. The resteraunt itself we found to be dirty with the kitchen ate to be clean. I got The Pulled Pork "Two Timer" Taco with a side of Pinto Beans. Both were tasty but the taco was very messy and fell apart after the first bite as the Shell got very soggy as they are packing so much into a taco shell. My wife got the Taco Salad which she stated was very good. She also got a side of the tortilla soup which was just ok. The one issue I did have is that on the menu board, the writing of what's on each item is so small and far from where you order that I had a very difficult time reading it. All in all the food is mediocre but we will return and try it again.

    Steak Burrito Bowl (extra white rice, pinto beans, steak, lettuce, pico de gallo, corn, guacamole.) *FYI - 15% of the guac got stuck on lid.

    Pros: *Ordered 'Steak Burrito Bowl' (extra white rice, pinto beans, steak, lettuce, pico de gallo, corn, guacamole). Food was fresh + filling. *Large varied menu w/ 18 toppings + 7 proteins - breakfast options too! *Premium toppings like guacamole and queso are free (unlike competitors). Cons: *Flavors are very one-dimensional. Ingredients are fresh, but they lack any notable seasoning/cooking techniques - which prevents flavor from popping. *Small scooper w/ trigger release is used for guac - helps w/ restaurant portion control, but zaps ordering experience for customer. *So many toppings, but no clear labels/allergy info on the food line. Hard to ask questions w/o holding up the line - so ordering can get overwhelming. Overall: Reliable spot if you are looking are quick + healthy meal. Food quality is good, but taste is average + lacks memorable flavors. I would consider returning to try some of their new products (brisket, Cholula chicken, etc.), but likely would not go out of my way to return.

    I have to this location a few times, i love QDOBA's nachos and quesadillas! Sometimes i also get the bowl! The good- -location is convenient -every time I've been there the line is typically less than 5-6 people, so no long wait for food -tastes fresh, delicious food -free guac!!! -customer service is great The bad- Not really anything bad to say about this place, i do prefer chipotle because it has a little bit more flavor but overall their food is tasty as well!!

    Steak Fajita Quesadilla
    Chrisotpher L.

    This was my first ever visit to a QDOBA and I was pleasantly impressed at the quality and taste of my quesadilla. The steak, peppers, onions, black beans, and cheese were fresh! The guacamole was also good. The restaurant has indoor dinning and the bathrooms were clean. Its very similar to chipotle in taste and price and its almost al carte for a drink and chips and salsa which gets expensive. Overall it was pretty good!

    The ingredients are always fresh. I love the food the service and prices are great. The location is also convenient and easy to access. There are COVID-19 protocols in place to keep people safe. I like to take my food to go because I am still not comfortable sitting and dining in at any restaurant no matter the size.

    Really understand why this place is so popular! Came here with some friends and had a lovely…read moreexperience. We were sat right away and I was surprised at how big the restaurant is (way bigger than it looks from the outside!). I started with a hibiscus margarita, which was delicious. Then we ordered a few things to split, including: guac and tostadas, charred cabbage, gorditas with chorizo, aguachile negro, and the beef short rib platter. The charred cabbage was the biggest sleeper hit. It was so flavorful and unlike anything I've ever had before. Everything else was delicious, although the aguachile was probably my least favorite of what we tried. We finished with the rose water tres leches and the dulce de leche crepes. The tres leches were pretty good but the crepes were amazing. I don't usually love dulce de leche, but it was definitely a standout.

If you are planning to visit during popular dining hours, it might be worth it to make a reservation. We arrived during a weekend around 5:30 pm, and the place was somewhat empty. However, by 6-6:15 pm, the place was PACKED. I was a very surprised (in a good way) that the menu was a bit smaller compared to other Mexican/Tex-Mex restaurants in the area. I necessarily do not think the smaller menu is a bad thing because, with a smaller menu, a restaurant can focus on preparing everything well (i.e., it's easier to do a good job with 20-item menu versus a 50+-item menu). For my dining pleasure, I went with the enchiladas suizas with a few margaritas. Overall, I thought my plate was very delicious; however, other diners at my table and I noticed that the portion sizes were a bit small for the price. Perhaps, the restaurant uses higher quality ingredients for its dishes. Although the margarita sizes might appear to be small, they definitely are not "small" in power/punch, so the $13-$18 price range is appropriate. My favorite margarita of the night definitely was the El Jardinero, which was a wonderful mix of carrot, cilantro, peach, lime and a semi-spicy pepper of sorts. Collectively, we all thought the service was exceptional because our waitress constantly visited the table. Personally, I thought it was a bit overkill, but that's a very, very minor complaint based on my very, very personal preference.

I would describe them as a combination of classic and elevated Latin food. The vibe of the restaurant is very casual, but the presentation of many of the dishes takes it to another level. They also have a wide selection of beer and wine. I have had tacos, octopus, breakfast tacos, and tamales. Everything was flavorful and quite tasty. I will admit service was a little slow the last time I went, but given the weather and the fact that we weren't in a rush it wasn't a big deal. If you haven't been yet, you should go.

Could work on those fried plantains as they were a little soggy.

Presentation and bread could be better. We left curious about their regular menu so we may give it a try some other time. Their staff were nice but not very knowledgeable about their menu items. They didn't really know how to answer my question about their vegan tres leches and told me it was not actually vegan after indicating it had condensed milk and heavy cream.

I knew it was going to be busy on a Saturday night, so I wanted to place my order in advance to minimize wait time but the website was not accepting orders at the time. So I drove down and took my chances, knowing I would have to wait. And honestly, even though it was packed, it took a total of 30 minutes from walking into the building before I had my burrito in hand. They were processing orders from UberEats, DoorDash, you name it, and also processing the dine-in and other take out orders. I waited by the bar with my Arnold Palmer (so refreshing) just watching the sheer magnitude of kitchen orders they were processing. Now for the most important part - the burrito! I went with a classic, the chicken super burrito. It was fantastic!! The guacamole was fresh, it was the perfect amount cheesy and moist from the cheese and sour cream, the chicken was tender, the rice and beans were flavorful, and the tortilla was perfectly warm and tasty holding it all together. I also loved the salsa verde on the side, it was punchy and so delicious. I had have had so many meh burritos in the DC area and this one truly stands out and is so good, even if it is double the price of those others. It is also a HUGE portion so you at least are getting a good bang for your buck. I definitely need to go again for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and try the entire menu, and all of the coffee drinks - I had my eye on the horchata latte but not with my dinner.

Tortillas not warmed up properly. That hot sauce they give you comes in super useful just to get some flavor because on its own it just isn't doing much.
