I quit going to chipotle after going there a few times and literally every ******* in line didn't just order one burrito, but had a list and was ordering for 13 family members. Literally felt myself coming out of my body with rage... then you FINALLY get up to the front of the line and the Zoomers behind the counter say... sorry we don't have fajita... sorry, we don't have white rice today. WTF.
Also, $25 dollars for a bowl of instant diarrhea... congratulations, you played yourself.gif

That being said, Chipotle sucks ass. Qdoba is the way.
Edit: did double carne w/ guac and it was still only $21.

Extra meat with quac ran you $25? If you had a drink and sides, that's definitely believable. Chipotle was charging like $12 per burrito/burrito bowl 10+ years ago, so of course they aren't going to be cheap 3 years into Bidenomics.

Don't go to Chipotle, but can confirm fast food is a complete rip off now. There is this place next to me that cost $6 for a gyro around 7-8 years ago. Now it is $15. I went there for a bit during Covid and remember being annoyed when it broke $10.

Where are you guys getting $12 meals from Chipotle in 2023? Is that the price of a basic burrito with no fajitas, no quac, no extra meat, no sides, and no drink somewhere in the middle of Bumfuk, Utah or something?

If you think $24 for a $5 food cost is a good deal, then you should change your name to 29iq.

Mine is usually 2-3x the size of other people's bowl, and it ends up being my only meal of the day for like 1500 calories.Restaurant food price should be broken down into: 1/3 food cost, 1/3 business(labor/lease/equipment maintenance/marketing), and 1/3 profit.

I've had plenty of bad Chipotle experiences that I was not happy with, but if you know what you're doing it's fantastic.

Guise, inflation has been slayed!

It just destroyed the buying power of the middle class.Fast food workers getting $15/hr factors into it.
Restaurant meals seem cheaper til you factor in the 20% tip.

And you're probably paying double for lab meat at this point, too.

Mexican place near me charges $18 for 3 tacos with a side of beans & rice now. And if you eat in, they (try to) add an automatic 20% gratuity. If you want individual tacos, they're like $4.75 each.
Chipotle is a much better value at this point.

At a certain number/price, i delete items from my order or grocery list.
It needs to be a reasonable price increase, not just what they are asking.
Shi potle doesn't even come close to a real LA,SF, or SD burrito so i just deleted that flavorless restaurant, yes spoiled by real mexican food.
Did you know that the "new' California burrito has french fries replacing the rice and beans?
I just had one in San Diego 2 weeks ago, it actually worked.

But they changed their food to be like Chipotle and it completely went to chit, because Chipotle does that style better than they do. But in like 2001-2002, Qdoba was much better than Chipotle.

A good thing to know is that menus have little numbers next to the items.
The little numbers are the price.
Seems that most people have forgotten this or maybe never knew it in the first place.
So next time you go, look at the menu, if the numbers are higher than you are willing to pay, maybe dont order it.
I have used this technique my entire life and have almost never overpaid for an item. I know it sounds crazy but it actually works.
