View Full Version : Yay Springfield!
We're getting a Chipotle!
Is that place supposed to be good? We got one here about a year ago and I have yet to check it out.

I've actually never eaten there, but I've heard it's good. Looking forward to checking it out once it's open.

Chipolte is overrated crap - basically a Mexican McDonald's that somehow became trendy. Can't even stand up to Taco Bell. Yuck.

I'm not about to put back on the 50 lbs I've lost this year. Maybe I can take a friend and split something.

Good call! Actually, I was going to comment on how crappy Chipotle is. They take a big ass tortilla and fill it with cheap meat and fillers (rice) and call it gourmet fast food. Then they charge $6.00 for one.

What the hell does splitting a 2500 calorie burrito with a friend have to do with sex?

Yeah, the McDonald's of Chinese food is certainly way better than the McDonald's of Mexican food. :spock:
Do you people have no good restaurants anywhere near you?

You just said you would split something. That would make any sane person think you were talking about something other than burritos. Duh.

Actually, I think that McDonalds actually owned Chipotle until the first of this year.
Overpriced and overrated.

Woo, I'm going to college in Springfield.
Then again, I can only seem to tolerate Taco Hell when it comes to Mexican food.

Colleges. There's something else we have a few of. Which one? MSU?

The three tacos are not bad, if you don't mind paying like 2 bucks a taco.
It's right up there with Starbucks and Quiznos in terms of overpriced and overrated.

When ALOT of people say something is good, it is usually not.

I guess I'll just have to try it for myself. Everyone was raving about Qdoba when we first got them. I wasn't that impressed.

:LOL: I went to SMSU back when it was still SMSU. I don't remember many Chinese resturants. There was one year I practically lived on Subway and Dunkin Donuts though.

Chipotle is decent...definitely better food than Taco Bell. But they're overpriced. I'd say that Chipotle and Taco Bell probably have very similar price-to-value ratios.

I am amazed.

I graduated in the spring of '95. What dorm?

So does "i call b.s." equate to "you're lying" in some way? I suppose you could call it not being very observant or not really having a desire for Chinese food at the time, but "BS"?
Okay, a few observations...
1. Chipotle will fail here. Why? It is on the corner of Walnut Lawn and Campbell. Ever since Mazzios left there, that location has been cursed.
2. All of you saying Qdoba...WTF!! We have Mexican Villa and Cielito Lindo yo!
3. I am glad we have all of the Chinese. My perfect day would start at Canton Inn, then I'd hit Chinese Chef for some spicy chicken, maybe end it with some high class Lucys.

Cielito Lindo is amazing, not a big fan of Mexican Villa. I think the Qdoba part is for fast food mexican.

1. Have you noticed that they keep trying to put cheap Mexican places there? Right next door to a friggin' Taco Bell! Duh!
2. Cielito Lindo. :drool:
3. Spicy chicken from Chinese Chef is my favorite!

Cielito Lindo and Mexican Villa serve different purposes than QDoba. I don't really group them together...aside from that I think those sit down places are pretty pedestrian. If I was sitting down with someone to have Mexican food it was always at Maria's.

I think the purpose of Mexican Villa is to make yourself have to poop before you get the check.

It's not owned by mcdonalds anymore...as was already stated in the thread.
I think chipotle is good stuff. It's a little pricey probably, but it tastes alright to me. Maybe I'm just satisfied easily by food. Who knows..
