2009-07-14 17:28:47 Thank you burrito gods for smiling on Rochester this wonderful day. —WindyPig
2009-07-15 08:15:05 I'm all for a new place, especially one that I've heard such good things about, but if this cuts into Taco John's revenue, so help me... —AlexK
2009-07-22 11:20:11 Back home when Chipotle hit campus within 6 months all the Taco Bell locations nearby had shut their doors. Within 3 years there were 16 Chipotle locations all over the city and Taco Bell was down to a few token locations in food courts of shopping malls. This is a good thing! —LukeAnderson
2009-08-05 20:58:18 Just a note to my fellow Chipotle lovers - Thursday, August 6th they will be having FREE BURRITOS from 11 til 8. The official grand opening is Friday. See you there! —StephanieTodd
2009-08-13 18:19:29 Have been to locations in other cities and really liked it. Went to the Rochester one recently and it was VERY crowded. I suppose I should have expected it, but... a line out the door for a burrito when there's a perfectly good nearly identical burrito place down the road (Moe's, not to mention Taco Bell or the 'authentic mexican' place in the Holiday Inn)? This will probably die down in a month's time. The carnitas definitely tasted good, very pork-y. I wish they had more variety of toppings like Moes... I totally missed fresh jalapenos. There's some indoor and outdoor seating available. Give it a try when you're shopping near the mall - just remember, Chipotle burritos are giant logs of food, and you will be stuffed! —MRich
2009-08-15 18:16:13 Uhm, this place is amazing. Period. I am so glad that there is finally a good place to get burritos in Roc. —Kyara
2009-08-18 11:35:32 If this place puts John's Tex Mex (it's not Taco John's anymore, Alex) out of business, I'm going to be pissed. Tex Mex is better, cheaper, and locally owned - why would you even consider Chipotle instead? —HughJass
2009-08-18 21:09:06 Don't think John's Tex Mex has anything to fear from Chipotle. —ThomasPawlik
2009-08-25 15:39:05 It's about time Rochester. —ytbh
2009-08-30 21:56:10 Wife and I ate here this evening. We're not hardcore Mexican food junkies but we like it occassionally. Both had the Chicken Burrito's. VERY GOOD! Not a very big waiting area. Winter-weather Mexican food lovers may freeze if it's busy —PeteB
2009-09-06 21:38:50 Went on a Friday night for take out and the line was out the door. Worth the wait. Better flavor and quality than Moe's Southwest Grill —ScottHendler
2009-09-12 15:00:34 Three members of my family have dined here, all at separate times, and our opinions are unanimous: better than Taco Bell but that's about it. I had a chicken burrito, I thought the chicken was well seasoned but the rice was just bland filler, the chips were generic and the salsas rather plain. If I want quick Mexican, Moes is the place for me. I wonder how well they'll do once the novelty wears off. —TomMaszerowski
2009-10-02 11:51:31 Been here twice for the burrito and really enjoyed it. I would have liked some free chips and salsa to seal the deal, but that's nitpicking. I disagree about the rice- it is what it is- rice, first and foremost. You get enough flavor from the salsas and seasonings rubbed on the meat. Everything seems fresh and simple behind the counter- a guy grilling in the back, a guy making rice, and someone else chopping up veggies. I much prefer this place to Moe's. —JohnBarry
2009-10-28 19:39:11 I'd like to try this place but the line is always out of the door. Either the food is very good or sheeple keep herding there because it's been said that the place is very good. Either way, I'm looking forward to trying it out! —BatGuano
2009-10-29 06:05:22 Flavors and quality of the ingredients are excellent, but prices are kind of high. You don't get free chips & salsa like Moe's. Guacamole is considered a meat here, so don't plan on adding it to your burrito without upping the price significantly. —NathanHenderson
