But speed alone isn't enough for a little restaurant to hang in at a square mile where two Taco Bells, Los Betos, Two Pesos and Paco's all vie for the Mexican-food dollar. Chipotle shouldn't be scared of the competition. We nearly sampled Chipotle's entire menu in two early April visits, and everything the place offers is delicious - comparable in quality to cult favorite New York Burrito. The restaurant doesn't offer combination platters because the entire combo is stuffed inside your giant burrito. All Chipotle burritos are tangy, hearty meals in and of themselves.
Fresh ingredients add to the taste.
The tacos are delectable and seem a little bit lighter than burros. The University location opened March 12, following on the heels of the Dec. 8 opening of Chipotle at 4774 E. Grant Road. The only complaint against Chipotle is its hurriedness. It doesn't matter, though. You've got to get back to class in 15 minutes anyway.
