All within the last 5 years, Chipotle has experienced a significant decline followed by what I would consider to be a full recovery. By most measures, they're doing better now than ever before. This video takes a look at the reasons behind these changes while profiling the rise, fall, and rise again of Chipotle.

I am thinking about a new type of restaurants : eating-spots, in eating-spots, food keeps changing, chefs also rotate, this is opposed to current restaurants, thanks to this rotation of food and chefs, eating-spots are more powerful than restaurants, along with that, there is an app, people vote for the food that will be cooked in the next days, menu is influenced by the live input of the people via an app.

@Cranson92 3 года назад

It's interesting to hear how things have changed. I worked at Chipotle before the first outbreaks in 2014. Lines were so long that we almost never had time/staffing to measure food temperatures as regularly as we were supposed to. We'd basically have a line out the door of our restaurant from 3pm-close every day. I also remember calling in sick and having my manager ask me to come in anyway on multiple occasions.

There’s a few things I’m surprised you didn’t mention. Like when all the restaurants shut down for a whole day following the outbreaks to do some major cleaning. The marketing campaign owned up to the mistake and apologized. They laid out what changes they were making. So many companies sweep things under a rug and fail miserably. Chipotle took their licks and I respect them for that. Which is why I remain a customer.

One thing you failed to mention was the time they stopped serving pork at a bunch of their locations because they couldn't find a supplier who met their quality standards.

So what have you fixed and what did you break? What’s been broken is a entire economy supply chain, inflation, teen depression and more.

@Mr6384 2 года назад

As a family, we all enjoy Chipotle. And I've only ever had one issue; while visiting a store in the Fort Lauderdale area, the sneeze guards ( the clear acrylic panels meant to keep the food safe) were missing. And the customer in front of me was actually reaching into some of the food. I contacted the store manager, who was useless. So I went to the district manager, who agreed that those needed to be replaced before serving. Thankfully none of us got sick, and the DM sent us a free meal card. What really made this whole thing bad was it was during one of the out breaks. Great videos! Thanks for helping us understand what really happens!

I stayed far far away from chipotle when I was younger bc I always heard about how ppl were getting sick. I had for the first time last year and it was really good. The store was spotless and the workers were the nicest only 2nd to Dairy Queen in my experiences. I told the lady making my food that I had never been before and asked her what she recommended and she gave me a good recommendation and it was really, really good. She even gave me free Guac and tbh I had no idea u had to pay for it anyway😅. And then went to fill my drink and asked a guy what drink was good and he pointed at some fruit juice and said “pick this one, it’s gas” and damn was that guy right I’m addicted that stuff lol.

@brockfuller2074 Год назад

I grew up in a small town in Virginia, so Chipotle was a treat when we went out of town. Then my dorm freshman year at VCU was a block away from a Chipotle and I was ecstatic. I would pretty much eat there every day. Sense then I have frequent Chipotle over the last 10 years. Even during the pandemic I would treat myself to Chipotle delivered to my door. But the last year or so Chipotle got full of themselves; they raised their prices, made smaller burritos, and overall had pretty lousy customer service. The last couple of times I visited, the onions tasted weird. Not sure if they were undercooked or not fresh, but the quality of food has definitely taken a hit on top of the other things I just listed. But the first onion issue Chipotle was in Rhode Island. I thought it was the particular store, so I didn’t go back. Then I got back to Virginia and one of their Chipotles had the same issue! Smaller burritos, lower quality food, higher prices, bad customer service; I’m gonna miss Chipotle but honestly I work too hard for my money to throw away $14 on a lunch I can’t even finish.

Its honestly irresponsible to do that because I'm touching people's groceries and produce and there is a good chance I could get someone else sick. I felt bad, but there was nothing I could do.

You have to know how to order and have a little luck with the person who is preparing it. Order the following: Double wrapped burrito with extra rice, extra beans, meat of choice (preferably chicken), fajitas, salsa, cheese, (light or no sour cream) and Guac. Since you got a double wrapped burrito it automatically allows them to add more food into it.
