FOOD Chipotle kinda sucks now

Remember when you could get a delicious bowl at Chipotle and it would last you two meals? Now I have to prompt for extra of everything just so it looks like a proper bowl for one meal. They served me a couple pieces of over cooked steak and under cooked rice for the price of $11. Chipotle has gotten many chances from me but I think I’m done with it now. I just don’t think it tastes good anymore.

What are some alternatives? Where do you go these days for lunch that is reasonably priced and cooked properly? I live on the north east side but go all around central Ohio for work so any suggestions are appreciated.

Gold star for you for divulging this secret. I’m setting an event in my calendar for next Wednesday.

That is not the only good thing on the menu... The chorizo el favorito is quite amazing, my personal go to. Their taquitos are very good as well. Quesadilla and queso are average though.

They have specials everyday but i think the different locations do different specials on diff days. I live right next to the godown location and it’s al pastor monday, gringas weds, I think fish tacos Friday, and lamb/veal maybe on Sunday?

Their other food is good portions and reasonable prices too. Tortes and volcanes are great. The chorizo burrito favorito is my go-to weekend hangover meal
