Mexican Cuisine
If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.
Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.
Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.

When I was in school, I recall playing a game where my classmates and I each drew a picture according to our teacher's step-by-step instructions. Maybe you've played this as well. Your young mind might have thought that everyone's picture would end up being nearly identical, but at the end of the game, you might have been surprised to discover just how different the pictures were. You could tell that (almost) everyone had attempted to draw the same thing, but some of the drawings were just wildly different. Some kids missed a step. Others misinterpreted things. Some just didn't listen to the instructions. I feel like that is kind of what happened with Qdoba and Chipotle. It's like someone in the '90s dared Denver to give the world two fast-casual Mexican grills that offer Mission-style burritos. Qdoba and Chipotle operate in the same way. Both have been given the moniker of "Mexican Subway," which refers to the fact that food is prepared in front of the customer according to the customer's directions. You even place your order at both restaurants in the same fashion. Depending on what you order, you pick your rice (cilantro-lime or brown), beans (black or pinto), type of meat, and type of salsa. However, Qdoba and Chipotle aren't identical. They're like those pictures my class drew in school. Both have the same concept, but they just aren't quite the same thing. For me, one of the main differences between the two is that Qdoba offers more menu items and more ingredients. As of October 2014, Qdoba and Chipotle offer some of the same things: burritos, burrito bowls, tacos, and salads. However, Qdoba offers salads with or without a tortilla shell, while Chipotle does not have a tortilla-shell option. In addition, Qdoba's menu includes things that Chipotle's menu does not: quesadillas, nachos, and a "Craft 2" option that allows you to pick two smaller portions of certain entrées. [Note: Chipotle offers quesadillas on their kids' menu, and I have heard rumors of a secret Chipotle menu item called a quesarito (a burrito wrapped in a quesadilla). I cannot, however, confirm the existence of this because I always order burrito bowls. ;)] In terms of number of ingredients, Qdoba also wins. Both restaurants have pico de gallo (called "fresh tomato salsa" at Chipotle), corn salsa, salsa verde, and salsa roja. Qdoba also offers (currently) a fiery habanero salsa, an ancho chile BBQ sauce, and two types of queso! BAM! I've been to the Qdobas in Maplewood, Kirkwood, Creve Coeur, and Des Peres. Des Peres is my favorite location, and that probably is because it is the most convenient one for me. I've never had any problems with the service or food here. I think all Qdobas in the area might have them now, but this location has the Coca-Cola Freestyle (a soda fountain that offers more than 100 beverage choices). If I'm trying to be dietarily good at Qdoba, I get the naked taco salad with pulled pork, the leanest meat on the menu. It's good, but how boring is that? ;) If I want to be more indulgent, I go for the burrito bowl or Mexican gumbo. I love that Mexican gumbo. I have it made with brown rice, chicken, and pinto beans. My selections are topped with tortilla soup, tortilla strips (a mere sprinkling), and cheese. (You also get sour cream, but I omit that.) I'm not entirely sure what is in the tortilla soup, and I'm not entirely sure that I care. It is some good stuff, though I find it smells a bit like Cool Ranch Doritos. I often take it home and add Tony Chachere's to it. Hey, it's gumbo, right? Qdoba has more menu options, more ingredients, and I certainly have enjoyed the food I've had here. However, I have to admit that I prefer Chipotle. It's just a personal preference. Yet, if I find myself with a hankering for Qdoba, I'll likely be going to this one. I can't guarantee that you'll never have a bad experience here, but I haven't had one.

Qdoba has one major thing that appeals to me: queso. I think Chipotle is more flavorful, but the queso here is so good! I enjoy getting it on whatever I'm ordering - burrito, bowl or taco. I also like getting nachos with it. It's spicy but not horribly so. I can stomach it, and I don't care for spicy. The service is fast, food isn't too expensive, and it is fast food without being fried. I can get my protein in a more healthy manner if I'm too exhausted to cook. I'll be back!

This place is by far the best qdoba I have ever been to. Not because of the food, don't get me wrong, for being Mexican American food, they are pretty good. The customer service here is outstanding. I love seeing people in the restaurant industry that are tatted up like myself bc most people are judge mental bc of their tattoos. Great customer service.

I like Qdoba in general and if I go I normally I go to the Qdoba on Manchester in Ballwin. However, I happened to be near the Des Peres one and a burrito sounded good. I was greeted by the female cashier right away so that was good. I ordered my queso burrito with chicken and the guy didn't say much except "black beans or pinto beans." Maybe I'm just used to the nice workers at the other Qdoba but this guy didn't impress me much. He also rushed through making the burrito and, unlike the other Qdoba, was pretty skimpy on the ingredients. What I got here was a little scoop of rice, beans, hardly any chicken, little dollop of queso, little dollop of sour cream and a pinch of cheese. This thing is TINY compared to normal Qdoba burritos I've experienced. I was disappointed to say the least but I decided to let out my frustration here on Yelp instead of complain there. Ballwin Qdoba usually heaps on the rice and beans, usually gives a good large scoop of chicken and a giant scoop or two of queso. They also load up the shredded cheese which is good cuz let's face it, when I want a queso burrito I want the CHEESE!! Normally I can only finish one half and save the rest for lunch the next day. This is worth the $8 for sure. Another thing that irked me was that at the Des Peres Qdoba he didn't even cut it in half. If I wouldn't have been going home and didn't have a knife that would have irritated me. Definitely not worth the $8 I paid and definitely convinced me that if I want a burrito I'll be heading back to the Qdoba in Ballwin!!

I go to a lot of area Qdobas and while this one isn't the best (see my review of the one at 14169 Manchester), it's still pretty good. The only thing that separates it from the other is that that the location itself is pretty small. It fills up quickly around lunchtime, so it seems a little overwhelming when you're sitting there trying to enjoy your big fat burrito and you feel like the people at the next table are part of your group too. But there's not much that can be done about that at this point, huh? The thing good about this place, though, is that I think the staff is very friendly. They always greet you when you come in, and there's one woman there who must be a shift leader or something who always asks how we are and exhibits great customer service. If asked for my favorite Qdoba, I wouldn't pick this one, but there's no reason to no go there when you get that gotta-have-Qdoba feeling that happens pretty often!
