Damn, I wish Chipotle would deliver. I'm really in the mood for it right now. Even McDonald's delivers in Manhattan. Why won't Chipotle?

Going to Chipotle in California is like going to Pizza Hut in Napoli.
The Burrito's I miss were at the local places in SD. I can't remember the name of the one behind Jack in the box in Mission Beach, but the memories....aaaahh |

Or to paraphrase Michael from The Office, " I love Pizza in NYC, I always go to Sbarro's".

Really??? That's pretty cool (that is, if one likes McDonalds). I've never seen anything but pizza or sometimes chinese food available for delivery...
It might be a Manhattan thing though. It was raining outside so I went and ordered Japanese food...yum. |

You haven't been on delivery.com......you type in your address, and it shows every restaurant in your area that delivers. You can actually order through the site...you don't even have to get on the phone!

El Pollo Loco delivers around here, as does McDonald's, an assortment of Mexican joints, and just about every major restaurant in the city. One of the reasons I could never live in a rural/suburban area...I can have sushi delivered to my door 24/7! :D |

OT, but menupages was another great site for finding delivery places in NYC. Actually menupages now works in a few cities (incl Chicago!). ^ ^
I used to eat at Chipotle in Minneapolis a lot (because it was one of the few places open after work in downtown Mpls. that wasn't expensive and time-consuming). I like it slightly more than Baja Fresh, but not enough to crave one over the other. I'd rate Taco Del Mar in Seattle over both of them, but in the end, they're all burrito/taco chains, anyway. |

I've never been to FINS, but Taco Mesa is first rate. I was introduced to it a few months ago. Taco Mesa has a location in Costa Mesa off 19th St. a few blocks somewhere west of the DMW. They have another location in Orange off Chapman and Prospect in the same mall as the In-N-Out. I love their Cream Cheese flan....ooh...that'll kill your diet:p
I'm not a big fan of Chipotle, although they've been opening them around here like weeds grow. I like Wahoos because you can get the fish grilled, not just deep fried. Chipotle is not bad, but I don't like Cilantro which is mixed into their rice (you can order it w/o cilantro). Very basic menu. I do like Baja Fresh, and have never heard of Finns. I'll have to check out the website.... Another favorite of mine is Taco Factory (Diamond Bar, Irvine, don't know other locations). One of the most authentic I've found. Not very healthy, but has a great selection and the food is excellent. Buen Provecho! |

Speaking of fish tacos, has their been any mention of Maui Tacos in this thread. Those are good, but only in Maui. |

So we shouldn't eat "asian fusion" because it isn't "what asian food should be" or isn't "authentic" Chinese/Thai/Indian/etc ?
Give me a break. Eat the food that tastes good to you, not what some cuisine snob tells you is "real" or "should be". "Authenticity" is an absurd reason to eat any kind of food unless you are dining as part of an anthropology project. |

Was it an Alberto's, Aliberto's or Roberto's. I loved those places. I figured they had to be named after brothers as the food was pretty much the same. La Posta in San Diego still rules. |
FINALLY tried Chipotle today! Took note of the warnings that the burritos were huge and we shared one. We thought our burrito was huge & tasty. Will try it again sometime. Next time will try one with little or no rice -- that made up allot of our burrito.

I guess I believe in "truth in advertising". Don't call it "Mexican" if it's not authentic. They can call it something else. Unhealthy and disgusting would be a start in my book.
Pizza Hut pizza isn't "authentic" - so by your reasoning it shouldn't call itself a pizza resteraunt. |
