The only burrito that I have not been able to finish there was on my b-day and was this 7 pounder(I only got about 6.5lbs down and felt like it was already coming out the other end of me!).

I liked Freebirds a lot when they only had the location kinda off shepherd and 59, seems like since they expanded all over Houston the quality has gone down some. I still eat there though

That's funny because it has NOTHING to do with what I said. I was defending chipotle against the whole mcdonalds argument. I like freebirds and even had 54 points on my fanatics card at one time, but prefer chipotle now is all.

Super monster with double beef and chicken with extra rice and beans is my normal order at freebirds. Almost enough to fill me up.

Naaa, that's for a SuperMonster w/extra chicken.
I usually eat 2 burritos w/extra chicken at Chipotle.
2 = $17-$18
So in my mind and actuality...I'm saving $$$!

Actually chipotle is not owned by mcdonalds and thier meat is free ranged food, sorry but get your facts straight freebirds taste like a big *** burrito from taco bell! Freebirds does have queso so that is a big +

I thought it blew donkey! Overpriced ****, messy. For the cost I would rather sit down and have a dinner plate and get as full. **** Freebirds, I can make that **** better, cheaper, and less messy.

I even ate at CS for my first and last time at Freebirds...

I love how everyone says they have more options so they are better, sounds like a backwards argument for quantity > quality.

Freebirds keeps their sauce in like nasty caulk gun tools and ****, plus its a bunch of white kids working there =P

I know these aren't authentic Mesican restaurants, but my #1 Chipotle (75/Eldorado) is the ****, they got good ol' guys that actually look like they know what they're doing there most of the time (I go later, towards dinner usually).

The other Chipotle's in McKinney aren't nearly as good though, so I could understand that.


You guys are crazy with those monster burritos, I thought I was beast the first time at 130lbs and able to put down one Chipotle burrito lol.
