    This Chipotle is the ****! Seriously, hands down, best Chipotle I've ever been to for sure. Totally owns the one on Niagara Falls Blvd. Owns the ones 400 miles away in New York City.

    The food is fresh, they're always making more. Why? Cause their portions are HUGE! My burrito bowl is always, always filled to the point they have the smush it down. They also write super cute things on it like "his" and "hers." I think that their peppers and onions there are super fragrant and delicious. Their chicken there is especially better than other places too cause it's a little charred. YUM! Otherwise, their workers are always super friendly and nice. :)

    Never heard of this paticular eating establishment until this afternoon when I received a bogo in the mail for their newest location on Mile Strip Road in Hamburg which is near to the rock that I live under.

    I also did something unheard of, I orderred online. 2 firsts for me today.

    The final product, well everything was made the way I asked.  The burritos (veggie and carnitas) were FANTASTIC. The pico de gallo was so fresh you could taste the bite of the red onion. The guacamole - I'm an avacado snob - was perfect. Just the right amount of salt and plenty of cilantro and taste.  I also orderred the steak tacos. Beef was perfectly done and very tender.  I sat here and wondering "why have I not heard of this place?".

    Nothing tasted mass produced. Everything was fresh and hardy. This place is going to see me a lot more and you will be seeing more of me as I grow to burrito size.

    I was very happy when Chipotle's started opening in Buffalo. Even when I lived in LA where there are Mexican options at every corner, I visited Chipotle often - simply because it's really good (and I'm not an annoying person who hates on chains simply because they're chains).

    They keep it simple with their options - burrito, taco or salad with your choice of meat, rice, beans, veggies and salsas. I generally go for 3 chicken soft tacos or a chicken burrito bowl with brown rice, black beans, hot salsa, lettuce, sour cream AND CORN - love the corn!

    What makes Chipotle somewhere I feel really good about eating at is the freshness of the food. The meats are grilled in front of you and are naturally raised without hormones, and a lot of their toppings are organic and from family farms.

    Another bonus if you want to get a little crazy is that they serve beer and margaritas! Not common for an "order at the counter" establishment.

    This is the BEST chipotle I have ever been too. You are going to get the same quality of food from any chipotle you go to, but here you are going to get quantity. They how to give you the most food for your buck. Every time I've ordered a burrito bowl to go from here, they have a whole lot of trouble putting the to go lid on the container. I've been to the one on the Blvd. and other varieties around the US, but this is the BEST, no doubt. If you are near the Galeria mall and in the mood for some mexican check out this franchise of chipotle, trust me you'll have enough food for another meal. Holla!!

    Had no idea this CMG was here until I happened upon it on my way out of Home Depot and Target.  Went in at 12:30 and line was not long, which suggests either I caught it at the right time or it's still a hidden gem.  Shhhhh! :P  Lines at other locations are consistently long during the lunch rush... so I wont be surprised if this one picks up at different hours along the busy corridor.  Always consistent and always good, depending on your palette.  It is true, it's not authentic Mexican but neither is Taco Hell.

    Was glad to see Chipotle made it to Buffalo. I actually first had this style of Burrito at Edritos when it was on Elmwood back in the day. When I moved to Vegas I found a Local place there called Zaba's that made them. And it was until being in Vegas for like 3 years that I found out Chipotle was a chain restaurant that did them.

    All 3 of these places offered the ability to build a Burrito/ Taco Bowl with the same choices. Steak, Chicken, Carnitas or Veggie.... White or Brown Rice... Black or Pinto Beans... Some salsa's...Cheese and/or Sour Cream..Guacamole extra $. If you have never been to a place like this its usually $6 something for one and the Burrito is HUUUUUGE. Full meal within itself.

    I also give props to Chipotle for keeping up with quality of the local places and their use of hormone / antibiotic free meat, and use of local produce when possible. I mean I am not a big fan of fast food chain places. But Chipotle is definitely quality. I mean I wouldn't consider it fast food, but its always quick to order, so its actually fast.

    This location was clean, new and modern. Quick as usual and had steak cooked perfectly. I'll be back for sure.

    I love Chipotle and as an avid Chipotle consumer I can say that this is a wonderful second location in Buffalo. Yes it's in the suburbs but a lot closer to the other half of the city unlike the one on the boulevard.

    Anyways, I digress... I love this location MORE than the Niagara Falls boulevard because I find the staff is very friendly and energetic, not to mention there is barely ever a line! Did I mention they give you ginormous portions too? I don't have to ask for more of anything because they're on top of it! Kudos Chipotle employees, you are full of win!

    Thank you for satisfying my delicious guacamole and burrito addiction.

    P.S. if you're looking for booze this location has yet to receive their liquor license, but don't let that stop you, there are plenty of places near by to get your alcoholic beverages.

    I love you, Chipotle.  I only wish you were closer to my home.      What can I say?   This is the only place in the area to get a real burrito.   They are the only ones who know how to get it done.    I can't really speak to customer service, since I usually send my husband in for the order....  but the few times I have gone in I have been satisfied with service.   Their burritos are just so reliable.... always awesome....     Can't they just move closer to my house?

    I love Chipotle, the food is always amazing. I would suggest going before 830. The staff was totally unhappy to have to be there until closing. The cashier didn't even make eye contact. I suggest the one on Niagara Falls Blvd.
