to clarify, I like QDoba becuase it has beer. But I just remembered they don't have pork, so that's a point for Chipotle. Anna's and Boca Grande in Boston are better than both, especially the latter.

And Boston food sucks compared to New York in every other way.

Chipotle's taking its share of hits here. The Taco Bell comparison just above is off-base, because Chipotle, even if their idea of a burrito is all wrong, uses far better base ingredients than Taco Bell. #2, it sounds like one can't like Chipotle even a little without being told that you're all wrong, or that you're just like he was before he went out west, etc.. Nonsense. I've been out west. They're better there. But Chipotle's not horrible. Chipotle often leaves me feeling lousy afterwards, and the My Space generation completely oversaturates my hometown branch, but it'll sate a craving, which is more than one can say for alot of places. Again, think about actually leaving some ingredients OUT of your burrito - you will enjoy it more. Cheers

Was reading this as an unregistered user but had to join just because of the lead-off call by Adam.... I too agree that La Corneta is single-handedly the best burrito I've ever had!

A lot of people throw around the names of other places out in SF, and I've tried most of them. And La Corneta is the best I've devoured (over and over again). The Carne Asada Super Burrito (or Super Baby for those of lesser appetites) is perfection in a tortilla. My 'Keys to a good burrito' http://www.dskendall.com/burrito.html is SPECIFICALLY about this place. Oh my god, it's almost worth a cross-country flight. Also, it's actually a nice, clean environment, which is a plus when meeting up with friends.

In NYC, haven't found a totally awesome burrito place yet, but I'd say Fresco Tortilla Burrito @ 100 W 83rd St is the best I've had... much better than Chipotle.

For all those Chipotle lovers, all I can say is that I used to love Taco Bell burritos, but then I moved to SF and learned how good a burrito can be.

Oh yeah, and burritos aren't really Mexican as far as I've been told, they're kind of like NYC pizza vs. pizza in Italy... an American twist on the same ingredients.

The taco al pastor is a glorious food item! Did not know they were Mexico City's most popular street food, but it makes sense. Cannot WAIT to go to the ballfields for glorious Mexican food (no, I haven't been but only recently learned about this place, and it sounds truly amazing).

Check this place out.
