Chipotle

Based on prior reviews, this one has obviously gone down hill. The two women behind the counter were not very well versed in food safety since I told them I had a gluten allergy and asked them to change gloves and they immediately looked confused. Neither washed hands, but did put on clean gloves. One started making my order, then instead of continuing it through to the end, she started taking the order behind me (which they ordered a quesadilla that she touched with her gloves) then came back to finish my order, instead of the other woman taking over. I only got things she could use a spoon for since she clearly didn’t understand that touching the tortilla would make me sick (no cheese or lettuce then). Would not recommend going here again. Overall the restaurant was very unclean (including the restrooms).

The girl willingly washed her hands up to her elbows, used hand sanitizer, put on clean gloves and got fresh cheese & lettuce for me.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Staff was quickly ready to accommodate gluten free needs. Staff washed hands, changed gloves and got new a new bowl and food from the back as soon as I stated I was gluten free.

Chipotle is my favorite place to get a gluten free meal. I dine here once a month at least and have not had a problem yet. Each time I was there, a staff member changed gloves. Once, I heard a worker warn another not to touch my dish as it was gf. Needless to say, I was impressed! The burrito bowls are fabulous!!

The employees here are very knowledgeable and immediately change gloves and wash hands when you ask for a gf order. Everything on their menu is gf (except flour tortillas) so there are plenty of options.

The burrito bowls are gluten free. Very good and I've never had any cross contamination.

This place is legendary. But more specifically, they're gf burritos are. It's the burrito in a bowl, or burrito bowl, as it says on the menu. Chipotle is the first to have a burrito that is gluten free, but just as big as everyone elses THANK YOU CHIPOTLE!!!!!!!

Best GF fast food experience so far. They didn’t make me feel weird or like I took too much time. I told them I have a gluten allergy and the line stopped. They changed spoons for what I ordered, wiped down the counter, got out fresh cheese and lettuce, changed gloves, and one person took charge of my order seeing it through to the end of the line. I know there’s still a risk, but I’m thankful for all they did to help me eat with my family.

I was a little concerned when I read it had been two years since the last review, but I went and as soon as I told the server I had celiac, she immediately offered to wipe down the surfaces and change gloves. She did it so cheerfully also!

Lots of gluten free options, good choice for catering, and ability to sort through gluten free options by using their dietary filter online. There are good options available if you're dairy free/vegan as well!

While there’s obviously a chance of cross contamination, the workers here are very nice and accommodating. Everything except for the tortillas is gluten free. I always ask them to change their gloves and this past time a worker felt her glove touch the tortillas after changing them so she immediately changed them again! They never have a problem getting lettuce or cheese from the back which I appreciate! I have not had a reaction here yet and I am very sensitive!
