This place is a hot mess. They were obviously very busy with phone in orders as the short line I was in took 20 minutes before my order was even taken. The prep line was very messy and when I told them I needed gluten-free precautions the employee shrugged her shoulders and asked if I was wanting a tortilla. No precautions were then taken: no line cleaning, no utensils changed, no gloves changed, nothing. Portions are inconsistent and staff couldn't agree on whether the dining room was open or not. The food was good, although $30 for two entrees and two drinks was very expensive for what we got. This was my first visit to Chipotle and it did not live up to the hype. Looking at other reviews, it appears this location has suffered a steep decline in service and quality in the past 6 months.

I asked that gloves be changed because of my celiac. The woman behind the counter asked everyone in the restaurant to change gloves, then had the cook get a new spatula, sanitize the grill & cook me fresh chicken. Then she used all fresh ingredients & new utensils for every item I added to my bowl. The best experience I've ever had

This is my go-to fast casual. Lots of gf options. The only gluten they have are tortillas. Rather than asking staff to change gloves, I just don’t get any toppings they serve with their hands (shredded cheese or lettuce). Never gotten sick. I eat chipotle 2x week.

Notes


Chipotle does not have a gluten free menu but instead has a list of gluten-containing ingredients to avoid. Cross-contamination is a concern, however, so let the person taking your order know that you are gluten free and if you need them to take the proper precautions.

From their website: "If you avoid gluten, don't eat our flour tortillas. If you are highly sensitive to gluten and would like us to change our gloves, just let us know at the start of your order. You should be aware items containing corn, including corn tortillas (chips, soft corn, and crispy corn tortillas) and corn salsa, may have a small amount of gluten from potentially co-mingling with gluten-containing grains in the field."

All you have to do is say "gluten free" and the wonderful servers change gloves and spoons It was during the busy lunch rush when I went and I was so pleased by the fabulous response to my needs.

THIS IS THE BEST CHIPOTLE AROUND!! I have been to several locations in the area, as well as while traveling, and frequently get blank stares when I say I can't have gluten and ask them to change gloves, etc.

This location all the staff I have encountered are so accommodating and knowledgable about how to prevent cross-contamination. I simply mention I can't have gluten, the utensils get changed, counters wiped down, hands washed, gloves changed, even during a lunch rush! No explanation needed. They are so friendly about it, too. Super impressive and they have a VERY loyal customer now!

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!

I told the server I was gluten sensitive, and she immediately changed gloves and handled all my food herself.
