My wife and I had the distinct opportunity to eat at Qdoba Mexican Grill last evening. We should have stayed at home.
The national chain restaurant was much less than I expected. I ordered a shredded beef burrito, my wife a chicken burrito. Neither was appetizing; they were each barely edible. The mushy, sticky burrito was overstuffed with rice and beans, leaving little room for meat or seasoning.
We ordered a taco salad for one of our daughters, and she was happy with her dinner; however, she had none of her usually positive comments that follow her meals.
I suggest that you pass Qdoba in favor of a locally owned restaurant the next time that you feel like eating a bit of Mexican food.
The restaurant at which we ate was in Ellicott City, Maryland:
9050 Baltimore National Pike
Ellicott City, MD 21042

Shoulda stopped at Mi Casa, instead. They practically share the same parking lot. It’s the locally owned gem you’re looking for.
