My high school graduation, state championship banquet, and late night food runs throughout high school were all catered by Chipotle. I’ve been involved in so many delightful conversations and learned so much about my friends and family over a hearty meal from this restaurant. The service is amazing, the atmosphere is great, but the food is what brings everyone together. All the food Chipotle offers mixes together perfectly and you can always finish your meal off with their queso. I cannot think of one time that queso was not smothered all over my burrito bowl since they started serving it.
Chipotle kept their menu simple, but still managed to provide over 65,000 customization options, and customer’s can choose to order online or through a mobile app. The company was incredible successful with recognitions from Wall Street Journal and Fast Company
When you first walk into a Chipotle, a glass pane protects various amounts of different colorful ingredients. Chipotle’s goal is to “never stop working to improve each ingredient we prepare and serve.” This is why they show it off for their customers to see. The customer begins his or her meal by deciding between a burrito, taco, salad, or bowl. From there they choose a source of meat, such as steak, carnitas, chicken, barbacoa, and sofritas.
On the other hand, chipotle has many meat options as well, such as chicken, steak, carnitas and more. There are many options to explore, or you can always go back to your go-to burrito bowl, salad, burrito, tacos, and even a quesadilla burrito from their secret menu! Chipotle has many options to explore, like most other companies weather food or not their are many aspects of that business. Such as financing, health, worker compensation and more.
Chipotle is one of the most successful restaurant in the U.S. but every organization got some weakness and problems, today I would like to share with you what is the biggest chipotle’s problem ever that cost this restaurant a lot of money and lose trust from costumers and bad image in the media which is POISONING !! :- The fifth-biggest multistate sustenance harming flare-up of 2015 was the E. coli episode connected to nourishment served at Chipotle eateries in nine states. No less than 52 people were sickened, 20 of them were hospitalized. The episode was one of a few nourishment harming flare-ups connected to Chipotle this year including a Salmonella flare-up that sickened more than 60 individuals in Minnesota.
There is barely any seating inside the restaurant and the tables are never clean. The worst thing is that there is no drive-through. Chipotle is just trying to hurt itself. There is no way to quickly get in and out of Chipotle because of its long lines, lazy and inexperienced staff, and their inability to create new ways of delivering

Hi Marquis, I agree with you, Chipotle does have quality issue. I have been to few chipotle joints, and I found that the food they serve many times its not that hygenic. Espcially, where are the foot steps as less, I have seen insects in the food. I am vegetarian, and I prefer that the staff change their gloves when they make me a burrito bowl, but they make faces when they are told to change their gloves.
This provides a valuable tool for molding the kind of success-orientated culture at Chipotle. Instead of wasting time and resources while recruiting new members, they save time, capital, and resources by rewarding and promoting from within. This leads to maximization of profit, reduction of turnover, and improved employee satisfaction and performance through retained knowledge, skills, and experience of long-term employees. The net effect of these communication and management methodologies is to ensure that services offered to customers are of the highest possible quality. For example, 84% of the customers spend less than five minutes waiting to be served.
Chipotle and ShopHouse both compete in markets within the restaurant industry. The restaurant industry is huge, accounting for $632 billion dollars and 970,000 establishments in 2012 (Thompson et al. c-125). Chipotle, a member of the rapidly growing fast-casual type of restaurant, competes mainly with Qdoba and Moe’s Southwest Grill, two restaurants very similar to Chipotle, as well as Taco Bell (Thompson et al. c-123). ShopHouse’s main competitors are similar to itself in the same way that Chipotle’s competitors are similar to it; they include Pei Wei, Panda Express, and Noodles and Co. ShopHouse also competes with other major fast-casual chains as well, such as Panera Bread.
Introduction The restaurant industry in the United States had annual sales of $ 631.8 billion and employs 12.9 million people in 2012. Even in times of recession there is little evidence that this industry has seen a decline especially in its fast food and quick service segment. But with a depressed economy with no immediate upward trend in the near future, majority of the customers indicated that they would either curtail their spending on eating or best maintain its current level which is certainly going to affect the future of many restaurants in the industry. Chipotle is part of the fast casual segment of the U.S industry with over 1,600 restaurants.

I just want to figure out what is so great about these two places, and figure out how they are the same, and how they are different. There are many people in the world that are in love with Chipotle.

Chick-Fil-A Case Study Despite being a fast-food restaurant, Chick-Fil-A is widely known for its exceptional customer service. Part of the reason they have incredible customer service is because they have made it their mission to “get better before getting bigger.” Even though Chick-Fil-A has thousands of less stores than its competitors, it has made business all about the customer and it is paying off in large profits and continual growth. Chick-Fil-A’s customer service plan is two-fold: to go the “second mile” and to give the customers something to do.
Chipotle has behavior norms in which its employees are expected to display within the restaurant, this includes official characteristics the firm requires them to exemplify (parature.com). These characteristics can be found in table #, they are not only important for customer service but also the career path that Chipotle provides for its top employees. Chipotle has a reputation for great customer service because they understand that they are only as strong as their strongest employee therefore they pay their employees on average more than their competitors.
