While I agree with some of what Corinne said, I do not think Chipotle is that bad. First, I'd like to say thank you to Troy Polamalu for suggesting we review Chipotle. If you have any extra Steelers tickets lying around please send them to me.
I have a problem with pronouncing the name of this restaurant the wrong way. It's not Chip - tot - le. It's pronounced "Chip - oat - lea". I have actually been eating here since it opened and I enjoy it. I usually get the veggie burrito, and its reasonably priced for what you get. I know cilantro lime rice is popular with the Tex-Mex restaurants nowadays, but I just don't buy it. Sometimes I feel as if I am getting steamed white rice like eating Chinese food. Also I am suggesting more variety on the menu...there really isn't any. I am not going to rate which burrito restaurant is better because last time I did, I almost got into a fist fight.
I like the fact that you get lemons AND limes by the ice tea.
I did hear 1 good song while eating here last time - they happened to play a Radiohead song. I enjoyed it despite the bland industrial surroundings.
Chipotle, I would eat your burritos any day!

I don't think I'll go back to Chipotle. It wasn't that it was such a terrible place, and the food wasn't bad, but if you want Mexican food, there are so many better places to go. What is red, white and metal all over? Chipotle. BORING!!! I have never liked modern minimalist interior design. What's more, the music is as bland as the restaurant itself. I was also annoyed reading the cups which explain why you don't get any chips along with your burrito. The explanation is basically, "you get what you pay for." Okay great, but this just adds to the "nothing special" that you're paying for.
If you're avoiding Chipotle because of its affiliation with McDonalds, you needn't. McDonalds has recently separated from Chipotle. Read More Here. But, if your tastes are anything like mine, you ought to avoid it because there are far better places to go for "Mexican" food.
