They forgot the queso for my bland chips and didn't provide enough guacamole for the quesadillas. To top it off, I was supposed to get a fountain drink, but they placed the empty cup at the bottom of the bag, where we couldn’t see it. No one mentioned the drink to my parents, so I ended up with a nearly empty cup—there was even a short black hair at the bottom, which made me throw it away. The only consistent thing about Qdoba is their reliability; their quality hasn’t changed in years, for better or worse.

But as a vegetarian, there was no protein option (Sofritas) like they do at Chipotle If they do add a Tofu, Paneer option I think this chain can give Chipotle a run forit's money!

The chicken was seasoned but rubbery. The birria brisket? stringy mess. Guacamole, completely flavorless ?basically mushed avocado. The onions and fajita vegetables were good. I give credit that this bowl actually held up texturally.We picked it up, brought it home , unpacked all the groceries and did a few things around the house before eating and theyremained warm and crunchy. For fast food, not terrible, just flavorless. There is certainly worse out there.
