Zambrero

Spotted this place while out shopping and had to give it a try. It looks like another Chipotle/Moe's type place and while that may be the case this one really stood out.There seems to be a few more healthy options here compared to a lot similar places. I got a nourish bowl which was essentially a burrito bowl where they shake up the ingredients so they're not just layered on top of each other. Loved the idea and it was quite tasty.The service was fantastic and the staff was super helpful. Highly recommend this place whenever you have a craving for a burrito.

Stopped in yesterday afternoon with my girlfriend after doing the last of my Christmas shopping. She had ate here previously and recommended it. I'm so glad she did.When we walked in, the space was bright, clean, and refreshing. They have a decent amount of seating indoors or you can get your food to go. Service was great! Super friendly and a pleasant interaction.This place functions similar to Chipotle, you pick your choices and build either a bowl, burrito, quesadilla, taco, or nachos. Let's just get this clear -- this place could easily beat a Chipotle bowl. I eat Chipotle often due to its close proximity to my house, but that might change now.Their meats are kept warm in a Dutch oven style pot and they offer a number of toppings for your entree along with several signature sauces (chipotle sauce is so good).I got a barbacoa beef bowl with white rice, black beans, sour cream, cheese, corn, and chipotle sauce. (As pictured) this bowl HIT it was so delicious I quickly devoured the whole thing. The corn had red cabbage instead of onions (they have a separate onion/cilantro topping) and that was life changing. The combination of the flavors was immaculate. The star of the show was the meat. It literally melts in your mouth: so soft and full of flavor. You can also add a side of chips and salsa/queso for a nice price with your meal. They also offer cookies and other sweets as an additional add on. Their fountain drinks were great - not watered down like some places. I recommend this place HIGHLY. I was honestly not expecting the experience I had but I was going into it blindly not knowing what to expect. We will definitely have this in our regular rotation.

Zambrero is the Trader Joe's of build your own fast casual Mexican. Chipotle and Qdoba will forever be considered sloppy seconds. Mia help me build three perfect tacos! She was passionate, outgoing, and unapologetic about her recommendations. If you are lucky enough for Mia to build you meal do whatever she says, she has impeccable taste and a knack for flavor combinations.The food was fresh. The meat was melt in your mouth with unique sweet and spicy flavors. Get all of the sauces (don't worry Mia will guide you). I went with pico, corn, and cheese. Oh, and they will melt the cheese for you in the oven (Chipotle doesn't melt). Last but not least the salted caramel brownie is riot worthy. Life is short, get the f'ing brownie.

Great fresh food in a fun location! The location is a bit challenging to get into with the traffic from Starbucks but totally worth it when you do!

The warm steamed cilantro rice and warm mexican chicken was a delight on my taste buds! The salsas and toppings are so fresh and delightful. Proteins and flavors are double of the competition. The staff was delightful and so helpful. Check this place out....you will be very happy. I was!

Love this plate! Love that for every plate bought, a plate is donated. Service was great, people are super nice and always engage in conversation. Food was tasty and fresh and will def be back!!

A solid choice if in the area. It's similar to chipotle but different flavors. Everything was fresh and there is plenty of seating/parking.

This place has very tasty bowls. I got the Nourish Bowl. They offer a variety of sauces which makes unique over Chipotle. If you are looking for a less busy, but just as good option for lunch try here.**One option to suggests is putting a sidewalk sign in front entrance saying you are open to detour Starbucks customers that think that is the entrance.

Great food. I have had the burrito bowl and tacos. Great. Very clean and efficient. The only problem is the location. Always a little scary trying to get past that Starbucks traffic to get to the front door.

Great service. Amazing quality. 10/10 would choose this over chipotle any day. The Barbacoa is outstanding and all sauces are great.
