I eat Chipotle literally every night. I have a gluten problem. I'm single and I work about 70 hours a week. I literally not sometimes literally always eat chipotle every single night for dinner. I should be sponsored by chipotle or at least on a commercial. I will not come back to this location. The night shift over the last couple months, it's terrible. You're only going to get half servings, they give you one scoop, and then shake it off to half a scoop. When they do this, I ask for more. They say they will charge double, which is completely wrong. You mean to tell me for the full price of the meal? I cannot even get one scoop, not one whole scoop? I walk out. I have done it about 6 times this month. I don't care if they throw it away or not. Tonight, I went in to give them another chance.And that's what they do still. I will say I'm going to eat Chipotle every night right? Regardless, the adamsdairy location is absolutely awesome and the other 40 highway location, right off of 7, it's awesome. They give you what you pay for and they actually do are nice. This is also the rudest location.You will find. This location is worse than the 1 on 40 highway. In sterling, this is the most hood, it ran down c***** people location, there is. This place needs new management or ownership or to just torn down.Chipotle does not get worse than this location

I met with some friends there on Sunday 5/4 for the brunch buffet. The decor is quite dated (50’s to 70’s), dark with glass and brass, which was nostalgic for me. All of the buffet food was room temp, which was quite disappointing and unpleasant (especially the hollandaise, it really affected the texture). The plate of various meats that were brought to the table were warm but very overcooked. I also found the seasoning very inconsistent, some things needed salt, other things had too much salt. Our server, Cheryl, was fantastic, attentive and friendly. The bathroom was quite small and difficult to move around in if you were in there with another person. They were also down some steep stairs. One of my party has mobility issues and didn’t feel safe using them. Another of my party needed Gluten Free and there wasn’t much available to her, the server kindly offered to bring her some ice cream. This was overall a disappointing experience considering it was $30.

Today was my first visit to McAlister’s- I am allergic to gluten and soy (which is in nearly everything)! And a gentleman stood there and helped me step by step to assure my salad was safe to eat. Thank you to him and to everyone else who participated in preparing my food! You are all amazing!
