Today I broke the seal. My first ever Chipotle experience. I hate to disappoint TriComet like this, but....I am still a Moe's guy. My Chipotle outing was ok, but pay for chips?!? no one makes you pay for chips and the sweet tea...unacceptable. My ranking is as follows:

1. Moe's
2. Qdoba
3. Chipotle
*4. Taco Bell

*The Taco Bell ranking is subject to change due to alcohol consumption and time of day

courtney_leone - 2005-11-04 12:42 PM I for one LOVE Taco Bell. Its soooo good. I have yet to try a Chipotle. Maybe this weekend....

The words Taco Bell and Chipotle should NOT be mentioned in the same thread.  Period!

Yeah- that's the most common mistake Chiptole virgins make so you have to cut Courtney some slack.  They don't know how powerful Chiptole is compared to Taco Bell.

Is it really appropriate to be using the word 'virgin' on this forum?

Regarding Chipotle, is that a restaurant or something? I thought it was a sauce. Up here in Canada we eat frozen seal meat and gnaw on cariboo eyeballs, so I don't really follow...

Per Runnergirl's request and the fact it is Friday and I truly enjoy the art of avoiding work by looking busy ie. typing a lot.

Before I begin, allow me to state I am a Moe's regular.

First Impression: I enter the establishment located on Ponce DeLeon in Atlanta. The store appeared neat and orderly. Most noteably was the lack of activity and noise, some would see this as a bonus. Second was the brief panic that set in when i thought i was actually at an Ikea. Although trendy, a little too overdone and too much metal for me. B+

Ordering: I found the menu to be somewhat disorganized with limited options. Silly me, but out of habit i typically read from left to right, which meant i was having a drink, with sour cream and guacamole along with some chicken and a burrito. I do realize the line moves from right to left as does the menu, but i was thrown initially (I am not a smart man). In addition what if i want less than three tacos? Or how about some chips? throw me a bone here. I going to spend $7 on a burrito and a drink and you cant pony a couple of fried left over tortilla's??? I am going to take it easy b/c it is a Friday. C

Sevice and Checkout: No issues. A+

Food and Beverage: I guess i am spoiled, but i prefer the salsa bar. I would like a little hot along with a little mild. The ability to spice things up to my specifications is a godsend. This country was built on Freedom. Tha ability to do as you like (this is both my oscar moment and for tricomet's benefit). Maybe i want green and red, or just really hot, and nothing puts out the fire of a good salsa like a glass of sweet tea. Unless you are Chipotle where the sweet tea (yes, i am a GA boy) taste like something out of a nestea can. C

Seating: We chose to sit outside, there arent many place where you can sit outside on November 4th and eat in a short sleeve shirt. The outside seating area is located within thirty feet of a major intersection. However, this did provide a certain amount of entertainment between the typical Atl driver running the red light and the ever present homeless wandering by. I felt like i was eating my burrito while standing on the double yellow line. C+


Overall: Welcome to Moe's!

my *Very* vegetarian roommate breaks down every once and a while and eats Taco Bell like it is going out of business. It's really funny and we give her tons of crap for it. I haven't had good Mexican since the beginning of this quarter. Although Superfuzz the BF will be coming out tonight so we may go to Mad Mex (drooooool) since they just opened one in Columbus. Since i found out the caloric content of a chipotle burrito...i can't do it.

We need 3558 to confirm this Chiptole phenonomen.  We'll have to wait for his return.

I'm not disappointed Lee, I'm still a Freebirds girl. Chipotle is the red headed stepchild.
