This was my first time trying Chipotle—yes, I know that's surprising. However, I don’t know if it was just this particular location, but my food was almost flavorless. It felt like a group of people who had never made a burrito before had been given vague instructions on how to do so. They included all the basics: a tortilla, what they referred to as carnitas, rice, cheese, beans, guacamole, and what they called salsa, but something was definitely off. It’s hard to put into words. It reminded me of a middle school cooking class in the UK being asked to recreate Mexican food based solely on a picture. I would rate this experience 0 out of 10 and definitely wouldn’t recommend it. Also, my order cost over $20 for just a burrito, chips and salsa, and a Coke. Total disappointment.
