This Chipotle in Gonzales, right across from the Tanger Outlets, is always a solid spot! The atmosphere is clean and well-maintained, and the food is consistently great—everything you’d expect from Chipotle. There’s plenty of parking, which makes it super convenient.

I started eating here a couple weeks ago.. I've always put it off but I'm glad I finally got the chance to try it... very good.... they have only a couple things to choice from and that makes it simple and easy... freshly cooked meats for burritos or bowls! Can get kinda pricey depending upon how much you add to whatever you order.. definitely worth trying...

Chipotle is a favorite. Really great for quantities. Very tasty. I had the carnitas and my wife had the chicken bowl. You can ask for a tortilla on the side when you order the bowl. We also got chips and salsa, but we don't recommend it.

Mostly young people (20's -30's) eating there. Walk through bar while you made selections, and they dished it out in generous helpings. I had some difficulties understanding their questions as they seemed to speak softer than my hearing aids would pick up. I made two meals of it.

I was impressed. I haven't been here in quite some time. I had the barbacoa bowl. The corn and the queso... wow. My wife had a salad. That house honey vinaigrette?? I couldn't get enough of it.
