Its size is only slightly larger than a standard 24oz water bottle. I didn't see or taste any cheese in what was supposed to be a bean, rice, and cheese burrito. When I brought this to the staff's attention, none of them offered to address or resolve the issue. For just $2 more at Chipotle, I can enjoy unlimited toppings (except for guacamole) and can even double up on everything. A Chipotle burrito can easily serve as two or three meals, depending on your appetite. In contrast, the burrito from this place felt more like an appetizer or a snack and didn't satisfy my hunger at all.
