“I have been going to this location for last 15+ years.
I have 2 chipotles within a mile. And been going to this one, even though its over three miles. Very consistent food. The portions are amazing. Customer service is beyond good. "Leo" who has been working there for a few years is just a pleasure to deal with. I thought he was a manager. But he aint. DANG! Thinking of stealing him for my company. Good hard working folks are so hard to find these days.
Leo... am gonna give you my business card soon.
Vegetarian options: Tofu.“
“One of the most remarkable aspects of Chipotle is its emphasis on personalization. From the moment I step into the restaurant, l am greeted with the opportunity to craft a meal that is uniquely my own. Each step in the assembly line is a moment of choice, allowing me to curate my perfect bowl, burrito, or tacos. The ability to customize every element of the meal-rice, beans, protein, salsa, and toppings
—is where Chipotle shines.
For me, it all begins with the foundation: cilantro-lime rice. Whether it's the light and fluffy white rice or the more robust, earthy brown rice, this base sets the stage for a flavorful, hearty dish. Each grain is infused with the subtle brightness of lime, complemented by the fresh punch of cilantro, creating an irresistible backdrop for the rest of the ingredients.
Next come the beans. I often find myself drawn to the black beans, which offer a richer, slightly smoky flavor compared to the "to beans. However, on days when I'm..
the mood for something heartier, the pinto beans, stewed with bits of bacon, offer a delightful depth of flavor. It's this versatility that makes Chipotle a place where no two meals are ever quite the same.
The centerpiece of my Chipotle bowl, though, is always the protein. Whether it's the succulent barbacoa, slow-cooked for hours until it's melt-in-your-mouth tender, or the smoky adobo-marinated chicken, the protein choices at Chipotle are nothing short of extraordinary. The carnitas, with their rich and savory flavor, hold a special place in my heart. Each bite is an explosion of spices and textures that elevate the dish to something more than just "fast food."“
“For fast food, this is one of the best places.
They offer great serving sizes for the money.
Service has always been friendly.
They even, when you ask them to change gloves, ask if you have an allergy and let the rest of the team know.
Love their sofritas as my go to vegetarian option!
I only rate the atmosphere as a 3 star, because it is, after all, a fast food place.“
“Late night dinner, super long lines but the staff were amazing. Sped things up and super friendly from start to finish 😊 they acknowledged every customer and cleaned up the area throughout the time we were there. Hasn’t been this way before so kudos to their new crew!“
“Well everything is always decent going there but today they decided to just not help the girl the first day on the job and the video is of the “burrito” we ordered. I ordered a bowl after I saw the war crime she committed on his burrito and mine was great.“
“Visited last night with a friend, absolutely delicious. This tends to be standard for Chipotle, but I have been so other locations across the Country where the portions are limited. I love the corn salsa and am used to around a 1/4 cup serving so I asked for double corn salsa and actually had to tell him, no that’s enough. A 10/10 is not enough, beyond generous on proportions.“
“Amazing manager. Has a issue at another store had to call corp and still had a issue. She not only solves my issue but but it genuinely.. def recommend this location. 1000stars.. I believe her name was Julie(blonde hair/ super sweet. She gave me a business card but it got wet.“
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I visited Chipotle only once before my recent stop at the New Tampa location on December 20, 2025. My very first Chipotle experience was back in 2017, so I wouldn’t consider myself very experienced with the menu. That said, out of all my visits to various fast-casual restaurants, this experience truly stood out as absolutely pleasant.
I went in during the evening not fully understanding the menu and relying on something I had seen online. When I tried to order it, the team member explained they weren’t familiar with that specific item, but kindly let me know that if I told them what was in it, they would make it—and they did. The very first employee I encountered had a magnificent spirit. She reassured me that she had all the time in the world, encouraged me to take my time, and made sure we got the order just right.
I genuinely appreciated the patience, kindness, and quality customer service I received, especially from such young employees. It was refreshing and uplifting to see.
The price was exceptional as well. I understand I came on a night with a special promotion, but it truly worked for my budget. I hope and expect that if I return, I’ll receive the same great service.
Hooray to the New Tampa Chipotle I visited at 8:00 PM on a Saturday night—thank you for such a positive experience!“
“I live right off Bayshore so this is my closest chipotle. I’ve been coming here for 6 years, I think we can all agree that it’s been a bit disappointing for a while. I even wrote a negative review when the old staff was arguing with the health inspector.
Today I went in somewhat reluctantly and was complaining taken aback by the cleanliness and complete transformation of staff, the two ladies who were working the main counter and the mobile order counter at 2:15 on January 16th were some of the nicest, polite and everything else you can say nice about someone, from the man who was preparing the food to the man who was frying the chips was extremely professional and welcoming. The ladies seemed happy to be there and not in some mood like they just got over a conniption fit like this place was a couple years ago. From the way they spoke to not only me but also the way they spoke to the DoorDash drivers was the main reason I am writing this review.
There was no arguing about portions and no skimping of anything. It is so breathtaking to see people who actually care about what they do. I am delighted to say that my past review is completely obsolete and I will be taking it down. Best chipotle in the Tampa Bay Area and I will 100% be coming back and downloading that app.
20/10 if I could give 7 stars I would, god blees“
“Of all of the Chipotle locations around Tampa Bay, I believe this is the best. Is it perfect? No, but that's just the Chipolte standard. I enjoy this location because they always cook food despite the long/short lines, and the food always tastes fresh.“
