    3-cheese nachos w chips on the side. Just the way I like it! - A disposable bowl holds a salad with chopped lettuce, shredded cheese, and tortilla chips on top. A cup from Taco Bell with a straw is visible in the background, placed on a restaurant table. The setting appears to be a casual dining area with other patrons seated at tables, and natural light coming through windows.

    OH YES! Three cheese nachos with the spicy queso, yes yes yes! I drove a half hour out of my way to get some food here as there is no Qdoba in my city. I haven't had it in years and I was craving that queso. I was greeted by very friendly workers. I ordered the nachos with the chips on the side so they didn't get soggy. I am in love with the cilantro rice. I got some black beans on the nachos and guacamole, and a little of the white shredded cheese. MMMM MMMM!!!! The green salsa is very good, not too hot and very flavorful. I also got a black bean and rice burrito to go. The biggest burrito ever! It was three meals for me! The restaurant and bathrooms are sparkling clean. The only thing that was unpleasant was their parking lot is a nightmare. They share the parking with other businesses and there was nowhere to park, I parked at the parking lot in the next building and walked over to Qdoba.

    Rude manager

    Good food, terrible experience. The servers behind the counter were super friendly. I wanted the Cholula chicken but wanted to try it before getting it and one of the employees gave me a sample. You can get a lot more free toppings here than in Chipotle. Quality of food is good. One of the managers (in the picture) was super rude. He was telling his employees not to give big portions or to give less. He was so stingy. His attitude was also rude. They advertise as many toppings but when my sister and I asked for a few different ones he said "You can only have a few." So we had to choose 3, which is ridiculous. I will never be back here and will 100% be going solely to chipotle. My sister said when he's not there they give better portions and are nicer. Not worth going here when managers are stingy and rude.

    Usually a chipotle lover, but decided to try Qdoba today for the first time in forever. I started ordering and the servers were super nice, but were very stingy with the amount of food they were giving. At this location the manager was out watching the workers, and I think that made them a little nervous. As I was going through the line deciding what I wanted, the manager was really rushing me. For example, after I got some corn he nearly yelled, "any cheese or sour cream". I panicked and said yes, then realized I could have also got guacamole and other toppings rather than just cheese and sour cream. I felt like the manager intentionally rushed me to get me to build a lighter bowl. Overall the food was good and the location is clean, my experience was just ruined by the bad service.

    Tortilla soup bowl - A tortilla bowl filled with toppings such as shredded cheese, guacamole, pickled pink onions, and corn is placed on a white plate. The bowl is made from a crispy tortilla shell, and the background features a reflective metallic surface, suggesting a restaurant setting. The image captures the colorful ingredients and the texture of the tortilla bowl.

    I recently saw an ad for their tortilla soup bowl and it was so inviting. I have been dying to try it but there is no restaurant near me. Luckily, I went out with friends and there was one nearby. I stopped in for the bowl, not realizing that you still have to select all of the items that go in your soup. I was a little worried about this but I think I made good choices and kept it pretty traditionally a tortilla soup. I got grilled chicken, black beans, rice, corn, pickled red onion, a side of mild salsa, a scoop of guacamole, and topped it with shredded cheese. It was amazing! This is the first time in a long time I did not feel disappointed by a fast food place. I would absolutely go back if there were one closer to me. I went at about 9:00 and the store was set to close at 10:00 p.m. however, the two people working behind the counter were extremely nice and welcomed me as soon as I came through the door. The place was very clean, hopefully it's always this way, so I was very excited about that. I told the staff that I was here for the first time and they explained to me how things go and we're very helpful in me making some decisions. I also grabbed a chocolate chip cookie because who passes up chocolate chip cookies? But I wasn't as impressed with the cookie. Just a personal preference but I don't really like super hard cookies and it lacked a little flavor. But again, the tortilla soup bowl was divine! If you have not had a chance to go to Qdoba, you definitely should make time.

    There is not much really good or bad to say about QDOBA. Its a half a notch up from Taco Bell and that is about it. The food is average quality and taste. The thing to look for here is their temporary items. Those that will not be on the menu for long are usually your best bet. By the way, their queso cheese mighty good!

    I ate about half the burrito before I pulled this three incher out of my mouth.. appears to be light brown?
    Jessica G.

    They not only got our order wrong.. One burrito didnt have extra meat and mine didnt have hot peppers.. but mine also happened to have a HAIR in it!!! Yup! I pulled a hair out of my mouth/ teeth! Gross! Im disgusted! Its going to take a lot for them to redeem themselves, if theyre even capable of doing so.

    The wrong food

    Line went quickly, food was great. Tasted fire compared to chipotle, $30 for 2 burritos & 2 drinks is pretty average nowadays

I liked the burger and the curly fries. They have a very large menu. The logistics of getting in and out of Schmale rd.as well as the pain points of going in for counter service rates a one-star rating for me. I did not figure in these factors into my rating. My best advice is to avoid going into the restaurant to order at the counter or to eat in the restaurant. There is no room to wait for your order to be prepared. The self serve beverage station and the order kiosks are right in the middle of where people wait for their order to be done. So it is continually "Excuse me..Excuse me..Sorry, I'm in your way." The restaurant was fully staffed and the workers were very nice. The ambiance of the eating area is poor. The booths have padding on the back but there is no padding on the seat. So you are sitting on a hard slap of formica. And of course if it is crowded, you may experience the overflow of people waiting for their counter order just hanging around your table. That is why I advise doing drive-through. I liked the food enough to try a different location. Getting and eating at a fast food place should not be this difficult.

Everyone I have met from Chicago absolutely loves this place and make sure to come here when they're back home. Their menu consists of a lot of Chicago staples such as the Chicago dog, Italian Beef, Beef & Sausage, along with burgers, chicken, salads, and their famous chocolate cake. There is certainly something on the menu for everyone. The interior is nostalgic and reminiscent of the Chicago street scene during the 20th century. There is a lot of vintage memorabilia around the eatery that definitely adds to the ambiance. Service is wonderful, very helpful, and they keep the restaurant clean. Ordering is easy, you can do it on a tablet/screen or at the kiosk. Food doesn't take too long to come out and is made to order. I had to get a Chicago dog with everything on it while I was here as that is one of the things they are most known for. My friend and I also split a large fry and onion ring. The Chicago Dog "everything style" includes mustard, relish, celery salt, freshly chopped onions, sliced red ripe tomatoes, kosher pickle, and sport peppers piled onto a steamed poppy seed bun. This was definitely one of the best hot dogs I've had! The snap on the hotdog itself was lovely and it had good flavor. The addition of all the Chicago Dog toppings worked so well together. This was certainly unique, but in the best way possible. Now both the fries and onion rings were out of the park. I'm a sucker for onion rings, and these were excellent. Not too heavily breaded or stringy, they were just how an onion ring should be. The fries were crispy and salted perfectly too. I will also note Portillo's isn't too expensive, especially considering the amount of food you receive. All in all, Portillo's lived up to expectations and I really enjoyed my meal here. I absolutely loved the retro interior as it was fun and captures the essence of Chicago culture. The service is great and they are very attentive. While I'm not usually a huge hot dog person, their hot dogs are an exception as tjeu high quality and stand above others. The sides are must orders as well, especially the onion rings! I will without a doubt be returning if I'm ever in the Chicago area. And next time I'll make sure to save room for their chocolate cake.

Overall, a decent spot for a quick bite, especially if you're craving classic fast food.
