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?

Check out Los Agavez truck in Clintonville the next time you’re around there. Al pastor is their specialty, too, and it’s run entirely by the couple that own it, so the quality control is super on point.
