    Their website actually has their nutritional information. But I would look into the salad or the burrito bowl.
  • everything haha
    but on the menu boards there should be a calorie list to help you out; :)
    good luck!

    I go for the burrito bowl w/ half the rice, black beans, chicken, tomato salsa, cheese, and lettuce. It's delicious, filling, and very close to 500 cals.

    This is what I order:

    a little bit of rice (like, half a spoonful)
    black beans
    chicken
    tomato salsa
    corn salsa
    lettuce

    (that is roughly 500 calories)

    It is important to stay away from the tortillas, white rice, sour cream and cheese!

    I think restaurants in California have the calories, but most states don't. Thankfully, there's always the website.
  • Once you throw out the tortilla a lot of stuff on the menu becomes fair game for a pretty low amount of calories and it still tastes great.

    burrito bowl --- no rice --- i would rather get my carbs from the guac/corn salsa...

    They have a great calculor so you know exactly what you're getting.

    I get a steak bowl with rice, black beans, corn salsa, cheese, sour cream, and lettuce. Its delicious! Overall it 750 cals, sour cream and cheese can be dropped to make it 530 cals. But I usually eat half, then eat half for the next meal or save it for the next day. So, overall, I usually stay under 500 cals in one meal.

    I just went there while doing Myfitnesspal. Unfortunately having a burrito with the tortilla is unbelievably high in Cals. I stuck with 3 crispy tacos with salsa and lettuce. No cheese or sour cream. It came in at 400 or a little more I think. Kinda boring, but I couldn't afford to throw off my progress!!

    The burrito bowl might be a good option too.
  • vegetarian burrito bowl without the gucamole - around 400 calories. you can google chipotle and plug in whatever you want and get the nutritional facts about your choice.

    OR... just eat HALF of whatever. Take the rest home for dinner.

    I always hear the voice of my grandmother in my head "clean your plate!" BUT I don't have to clean my plate! I can leave as much food as I want because my eating it will NOT help the "starving children in India"!

    They have a vegetarian bowl that's not too bad. Right around your target.
