First time trying Qdoba. Only came because my daughter wanted this for dinner. Approximately 25 minutes to get here and would I say it was worth it, yes. I was actually pleasantly surprised at the food. Ordered our meal for pickup via their website. Easy to place the order online. My only complaint is the order ready for pickup notification or lack there of. The receipt that I received via email stated that I'd get a text however none came. The receipt also stated that if you don't get a text to call the store however I just opted to go inside to pickup. Upon arrival I was greeted by friendly staff and asked if I had an order pickup. I replied yes and she asked my name and handed me my order. Easy peasy! When we got home we found that our order was correct and food was actually delicious! Would I go back? Heck yes! Loved my salad and the chips with queso that my daughter got. read more

QDOBA Mexican Eats - Salad - Mexican Near Me - Tampa, Florida

I'm in this place a couple times a week. The food is amazing and the customer service the best! Kevin is usually there when I go and has taken the time to learn my name and my order. Never an extra charge for the delicious queso. Better than Chipotle read more

Nice mellow environment very clean, food is very tasty and reasonably priced. I tried the adobo chicken as a salad. It was ample and no extra charge for the goodies like guacamole. read more

QDOBA Mexican Eats - Front - Mexican Near Me - Tampa, Florida

I ordered a regular burrito. I got a behemoth burrito that they didn't close the wrapper and dumped in the bag. Maybe don't put a bucket of rice in it and you may be able to fold the burrito properly. It was unappealing. read more

Pros: Fresh ingredients - they have cilantro on the line and their sauces are pretty good. Good customer service - The people at this location are courteous and efficient. MUCH better than any Chipotle I've been to in the last 3-4 years. Electronic Coke machine for soda - Yay. Misc: My burrito was fresh and hot. I decline rice bc it would just make it fall apart like Juicy Smoo-yay's career. - 4/5 Cons: Soda size is only regular. They don't carry straws anymore. Their cookies/brownies are a bit small for what you pay for. read more

QDOBA Mexican Eats - Hot and Sweet Chicken rice bowl ($10.40) - Mexican Near Me - Tampa, Florida

I had not eaten at qdoba in 20 years but he wanted me to pick some up on his lunch break. It was close to USF where I was getting some work done. Had the surf and turf which was not too bad, wish it had a little more rice. He got the quesadilla, simple and filling. I was torn on the queso and the lady suggested a mix of the regular and spicy and it was good. Overall: a quick lunch and plenty of food to tide me over. read more

Food quality was decent staff very rude and unconcerned with being there killed the entire vibe for the price point and attitude I'll just stick to taco night at home read more

For the lunch we were looking to order through door-dash. I opened the app and found that QDOBA allows order through door-dash so we decided to order from QDOBA. After browsing through the menu we ordered Citrus Lime Chicken Salad, Guacamole and Chicken Protein Bowl. Through doordash we got the order in 30 minutes. The bowls were made of fresh ingredients with healthy stuff. We loved our bowls as the quantity was enough for one and made us full. Loved the food from QDOBA. read more

I'm embarrassed to admit this but I love this place so much... it's been my weekly treat myself meal for over a month now and I'm 1000% sure the manager knows me at this point. Shout out to the wonderful manager whose name I don't know but you're always super nice when I go in! Plus I don't feel the judgment (even tho there should be some judgement how much I go here! ) My go to absolute favorite meal is their steak bowl. What I love most about this place is how much you get FOR FREE! Want extra rice? Free. Want extra beans? Free (though not for me I don't like beans). Want queso on your item? Free. Want guacamole on your item? Free. Extra fajita veggies? Free! I think you get it, but honestly don't get me wrong I love me some chipotle and Moes, but I don't love them as much as I love Qdoba. They have such a variety of menu to choose from I know that if I ever venture out of my bubble of comfort food, I'd still find something I'd like. If you don't know about it, download the app and sign up for the rewards program. It's a tiered program that the more you visit the more points you earn. I'm embarrassed to admit but in two months I've made it to tier 3.. and I'm not far from making it to tier 4. Tier 4 has a monthly mystery perk! So I'm excited to see what it is. The app has random offers so keep your notifications on! I've gotten free chips & guac, free delivery, etc. and I've only had the app for two months. More than I've gotten from chipotle and I've had their app for over a year now! This location has some pretty friendly crew members, but I have to say I like the crew in the afternoons a little more than the crew I've had at night. This location is super convenient, but the parking lot can be a disaster sometimes. All in all, still one of the best fast food restaurants in the area. read more

This was my first time ordering something at QDOBA and it may be my last. As i approached the front door, I saw one of the workers jumping and goofing around. I politely told them the name of my mobile order and also showed them my phone so they can see the order number. Once I received my order and drove back home (25 min), I opened the bag just to notice that they gave me someone else's order. I called the store manager and she just told me to drive back to pick up the order again. They were unable to place a delivery order for me due to a "policy" that they never showed me. There was no empathy in the managers voice, only a tone of annoyance since the moment they picked up the phone. She also didn't mention a refund, I was the one that had to bring it up. Overall, horrible experience and customer service from the store manager. Just go to Chipotle instead, save the trip(s). read more

I used to visit this place all the time about 4 years back when I went to USF and it was always pretty good. But I've went back a couple of times over the last few months and it's been a terrible experience every time it's like the food gets worst the queso was okay but not that great. The staff was friendly and this place used to be really good and they have great promos if you're a member of their rewards but i don't know what happened over these years. read more

Was at this location this past week. I hadn't eaten at a Qdoba in years. Used to go with college friends all the time. I noticed they didn't have nachos on the menu. That's what I used to get when I was a regular. That was at a location in MD. This location is decent. Service was good. I got a burrito and was satisfied. I like the steak. I always enjoy the queso. I would recommend Qdoba if someone asked my opinion on the place. read more

Best Mexican fast food chain in the area. Been to chipotle, pollo, moe's, and none of them made as large and as delicious of a burrito than this Qdoba. They were very polite and fast as well. read more

I need to update this review. I originally was upset about a mismatch between an order placed for pickup at 11:15 AM and a store that is not open until 3PM on Sundays and was frustrated by that situation. But after closer review, and a thoughtful response from the manager of this location, we sent the order to the wrong store. I want to update the review to reflect the fact that the manager of the location was willing to work with me and make things right. read more

Just go to Chipotle Was treated poorly by the staff, the food is okay, and their queso tastes like watered down nacho cheese. read more

Not bad , 1st time visit and it was decent. My servers were pretty nice and the food was good. You can taste the flavor and the variety as compared to chipotle. I would be back to try it again read more

QDOBA Mexican Eats - Mexican Near Me - Tampa, Florida

The customer service was fantastic! But I probably will never eat here again. This was my first time eating at QDOBA and last. Chipotle and Moe's are definitely better. The rice bowl I had was very small and they charge for extra rice which chipotle and Moe's don't. The queso sauce was really good, but that's about it. Really disappointed because I've heard a lot of hype about QDOBA. read more

Out of all of the quick Mexican chain restaurants out there (Moe's, Tijuana Flats, Chipotle, etc.), I think Qdoba totally beats them in the flavor department. While they don't have a fancy salsa or hot sauce bar, they don't need it because the food is flavorful on its own. The burrito bowl is perfect for lunch, and I like that they have the option for brown rice. I never understand why when I come, there's never anyone in here. If you're a fan of Moe's, I'd give this place a chance! read more

This is one of my favorite places to go for a quick meal, this location is hardly packed and if it is, they still do a good job of moving a long quick. I love all the different options of topping and sauces! And it's super vegan/vegetarian friendly :) read more

I was absolutely starving on my way home from work and I can always count on Mexican to be vegetarian-friendly. I walked in when it was dead, and the girl at the counter was pretty well-aware, which I appreciate. I elected for a cheese quesadilla, since that seems safe. However, all I was allowed to get was cheese and salsa! Now, I'm not a girl that is too picky, but I do like other chains that give me options to put into my food, like lettuce, black olives, fresh lime, something. Additionally, the girl overstuffed the quesadilla and it fell apart, and her coworker/supervisor was berating her in front of me. And why couldn't I have chips for free? I didn't want anything else, especially not more salsa or guac since that came with my food, so I got queso... $4 I'll never get back. Kinda disappointed, I like other chains more. read more

I found out about this place after picking up an UberEats order a few months ago and I told my husband that we should try it. Well, today was the day and I am so glad that we did. Everyone was so friendly upon walking in and helped us select items for our bowls per their recommendations. The steak was so juicy.. the bowl in general was just so damn good! My new fav go to tex mex place for sure! read more

QDOBA Mexican Eats - I had already started eating before I thought to take a picture, lol. - Mexican Near Me - Tampa, Florida

Last month the food was great chicken was cooked to perfection nice and juicy with a beautiful charr , the rice was cooked also to perfection and the guacamole was flavorful bright green where you can taste the onions the salt and cilantro , so I went to place my order as usual and I noticed the rice was mushy like mash potatoe the guacamole did not taste anywhere near nor looked the way it did in the past. I am disappointed the food quality has changed drastically read more

Stopped in on the way home from a doctor visit at Moffitt Cancer Center,. In need of a little comfort food. Also we wanted something different than we were used to. And they were on the way out to the interstate and our route home to Ocala. There was plenty of parking, the location was ideal for travelers headed to the interstate. The restaurant was clean, and the staff was helpful and cheerful. We really enjoyed our visit and our food. Three of us are vegetarian and... They have a beyond meat vegetarian option. Our food was delicious, tasty, warm, where it was supposed to be warm, hot, where it was supposed to be hot, and cold, where it was supposed to be cold. All in all, we had a delightful time and will definitely be back the next time we have to go to Tampa. Thanks guys for helping make what could have been a miserable day more bearable. read more

First time going. It tasted great and very fresh. Nice and clean atmosphere, as well. Got the mango salad which was really good. Would recommend. read more

QDOBA Mexican Eats - Mexican Near Me - Tampa, Florida

I was so disappointed in my food. The ladies who helped me were nice and the portion was big but the brisket was dried up, cold and hard to chew on my tortilla salad bowl. I couldn't even finish the whole meal because the food made my stomach hurt like the food was bad. read more

I love their bowls and would travel miles just to get it!!!I love the fact that all of their toppings are free and there are so many options. Always good quality meat and veggies, you can never go wrong with them when trying to stay on a diet. read more

This location is super spacious inside. We came to the restaurant during lunch hour on a Friday and didn't have to wait in line. Prices are affordable, they had 3 tacos for $9. Pro tip : Get the kids meal because it comes with a side and a drink and it's less than $5 with tax and leaves you satisfied but not bloated or super full Customer service was really good Ryan was super helpful and patient when trying to figure out what toppings we wanted on our tacos. Food is fresh and tasty, I would definitely recommend read more

I love Qdobe - I'm not ashamed of it. It's my favorite assembly-line tex-mex joint, although Chipotle tickles different taste buds and is a close second. But yeah, better than the others. I always get the same thing - chicken nachos with regular queso (they have different kinds now) salsa roja (i.e. the hot red sauce), sour cream, and guacamole. This store was near closing when I visited, but everything was prompt and efficient. Chips were way too salty in my to-go order, however, which is unusual. Coke remix machine for soft drinks. Clean restrooms. Reasonable pricing akin to similar restaurants. Same sterile, cold ambiance all the other Qdobes have, which I wish they'd change, but probably easy to clean. This location is sort of a "college joint" on the periphery of USF, so it was a young crowd when I visited, as compared to the location in suburban Brandon that I visited last trip down. You got that right, I always try to get some Qdobe on my trips since there are none near me anymore. Bottom-line, go check it out - there's a joint like this for everybody. read more

We stopped here after a day at Busch Gardens. It was just what we needed after a carb filled breakfast and greasy amusement park food. My husband had a bowl with plenty of rice. beans, steak and greens. I tried 3 of the knock out tacos. Plenty of flavor! They have good chips and queso, too. I usually go to Moe's, but I like this place a lot more. Too bad we don't have one near home. We'd probably visit regularly. read more

QDOBA Mexican Eats - Triple Knockout Tacos! - Mexican Near Me - Tampa, Florida

Qdoba is what I consider a not fast-fast food restaurant. You walk up to a counter, order, and walk down a line as they build your foot item. The food is fairly good, ingredients taste fresh. There is a nice selection of different items, you are not limited to a taco, burrito, or quesadilla. Everything is made to order, which means even the picky eaters can make sure that they get what they want. My big complaint with Qdoba is the price. They are a little higher on the price side. Normally I order their two for $7 deal, as it offers the best bang for your buck. A burrito can cost upwards of $8. Service is good, employees were friendly and food was prepared fairly fast. My second complaint is that the store is parked on an odd corner of a very busy road. Expect problems getting in and out, especially if its rush hour. I would recommend Qdoba, but again, keep in mind the prices of the meals. read more

Come on, Tampa - do we REALLY need another burrito place? Chipotle, Moe's, Tijuana Flats, and now Qdoba adorn Tampa's list of burrito dining options. I rank Qdoba as equal with Chipotle - except Chipotle's steak is much jucier and more flavorful. Other than that, Qdoba's just YABP (yet another burrito place). read more

My expectations were definitely higher than reality with this experience. The two staff members working at the time were not very friendly; the girl in the front had a hard time putting her phone down the whole time we were there. Personally, I think that is a bit unprofessional. The food was a bit old tasting, as if had been sitting out for a while, however, this could have just been because it was the end of the day. There are definitely better Mexican restaurants in the area. I bought the Taco Salad and wasn't that impressed. The shell wasn't too crunchy and the toppings weren't that fresh. It was too expensive for the quality of food. I think I'll refrain from returning here. read more

Very friendly management and workers and a beautiful inside and amazing food o highly recommend this place

This place is pretty good. I've come here a few time for dinner. Not usually any line and they serve the food pretty quick. Not the best food I've had, still think I slightly prefer Chipotle read more

Even though Qdoba has a queso sauce, the flavors and freshness do not compare with some of the other Mexican restaurants in the area. It felt like something was missing. The portions on the Craft 2 meal were smaller than expected. I will say that the mango salsa and the cilantro lime dressing on the Mango Salad were delicious. The pico de gallo and corn salsa were not spicy at all! I would have liked to have a little "zip" to those salsas. read more

Wow perfect portions, not too much and not to little but just right. I truly hate wasting and when buying Mexican food you can really save some for later without it tasting nasty but here I got the right amount of rice and everything else that cones in my taco bowl where I was about to eat everything. Menu was a little hard for me to understand so I asked a staff member how does the ordering process work and she gladly help and selected the perfect meal. I don't know why I never tried this place before this trip. Yay I found a new lunch spot read more

No romaine lettuce so you open and serve nothing. Wow you could have got spinach, iceberg, or a host of other things.

I've picked up food for lunch from here twice so far (never dined in, but the restaurant has ample seating, but not-so-ample parking in the strip mall). I am definitely a fan...this will be my favorite fast food "cheat" place. I like the quick assembly food preparation line and the friendly service. Oh, and the prices aren't bad either. I've only had the smothered burrito - on recommendation from the staff - once with shredded beef and once with pulled pork...they tasted completely different based on the items I picked and I loved them both, but definitely preferred the flavor of the pulled pork. It's very big, so bring your appetite! read more
