Chipotle Mexican Grill

After a long drive to the Bay, I decided to stop in Mountain View and pay a visit to an old friend. It was about dinner time and he just left the Dojo so we decided to grab a bite to eat. He had a BOGO coupon for Chipotle and, while I know it’s basically unauthentic Mexican food, it sounded pretty darn good right then.

I ordered the steak burrito with all the fixing’s. I unfortunately found a bit of tendon in my meat which made it tough to chew and got caught in my teeth. Is this the price we pay for a quick, thrown together meal? The service was quick as expected but a bit disorganized so orders seemed to get mixed up. Other than that, it was a decent burrito and tasted even better since it was BOGO.

A favorite stop of Googlers, Stanford students, and startup folks, this location had a huge outdoor patio where people often bring their dogs while on their breaks. It’s a great place to people watch but a true pain in the butt to get to since cars rarely yield long enough to make the turn toward the plaza. However, if I lived in the area, I’m sure I’d be stopping in more than once in a while for a big, healthy-ish burrito.
