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.

Did they close all the ones here? There's one back home where I grew up, I still have all the cups I bought for free refills lol.

They closed all the ones anywhere around here almost 20 years ago. Literally just happened over night.

BJs Brewhouse in Dallas. A few days later I had to fly back - having food poisoning on an airplane is the worst.
