Chipotle is owned by the McDonalds corp. Maybe that can help explain why they're so bad? I like their quesadillas though.

Little trivia for ya: Chiptole's refried beans are refried in bacon drippings. Eat up!

Re: California Tortilla.

Qdoba is like if Chipotle had sex with Baja Fresh and Chipotle had the dominate genes. There's one right by my work that I hit up once or twice a month. Might be about time for a steak burrito...

As for California Tortilla, it's okay. I like the variety and options, but I think the quality of the food itself is lacking.

Re: California Tortilla.

See I've been in baja fresh in manassas and it was so bright and sterile and smelled bad that I lost my appetite. I can't even eat their takeour, and I really like chipotle and moes. Never tried qdobas or cali tortilla.

But if you're fortunate enough to live close to gainesville VA, hit up El Tia's in the shopping center around the corner from target. It faces linton hall rd. Some absolute grat food. Oh and Jalisco's in Front Royal is awesome too. They give you this coleslaw I eat with my chips. Great stuff.

Is Jalisco's the place on that sharp curve? I've heard it's pretty good, but have never been. I have also heard that the new Mexican place up in the new Lowe's shopping center may be the best Mexican place around now. I've always loved El Agave in Warrenton, but folks have been telling me that new place in FR is better.

Yeah Jalisco's is around that curve... I like their food. The atmosphere is a little old, but the food is definitely good. They have a chicken breast smothered in cheese and chorizo that is awesome, and they have this quesedilla that has chicken strips, shrimp, bacon, cheese, guacamole, brocoli, tomato, onions, and a few other things in it that one person cant finish that is freaking amazing.

What mexican joint in what lowe's shopping center? The new stuff accross 66?

Yeah, right after 66/ right before you get to the big Quarles gas station, on the right hand side. There is a big shopping center there now. Lowe's, Super Walmart, Cracker Barrel, etc. There is a little strip of shops in front of the Lowe's. The Mexican place is in there. I can't remember the name off hand.

Ill have to check it out. I went to the Ledo pizza accross the street next to the target on sunday for lunch. They only had 1 server. We waited over an hour for food and were lucky the counter girl brought us some drinks. We had our pizzas before other people in our party got their appetizers. 2 sandwiches never came and our waitress totally disappeared for an hour. When we went to leave I noticed her in the back talking on her cell phone laughing. All I could do not to go off.

Re: California Tortilla.

Qdoba is about all we have around here. And it sucks. My wife is from Monterrey, Mexico and every time we go down there, I gain 10 pounds.
