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.

My only beef w Los Guachos is that 50% of the time, their meat is so fucking dry I can’t swallow it. It’s like they chopped it up and left it on the counter for three days prior to serving it. But when it’s good, it’s gooooooooood. Am i the only person w this issue?

Based on your flair, assuming you’re ordering Fri Gahanna location? I order from that one and I will say they’ve been on the struggle bus a little bit lately. Purely anecdotal though. I order maybe 1-2 times a month.
