It turns out that Chipotle customers were right in their complaints about skimpy portion sizes at some locations. On Wednesday, CEO Brian Niccol disclosed that a company investigation found that 1 in 10 of its restaurants were too meager with their servings.
Chipotle looked into the issue after rumors of shrunken portions circulated on social media, including from influential food reviewers on TikTok who shared images of small helpings. Some customers claimed they got bigger meals when they filmed workers putting their orders together.
The issue came to a head after two years of bruising inflation has made consumers increasingly cost-conscious, with many grousing about surging prices at restaurants. The smaller portions at Chipotle were especially hard to swallow after the restaurant raised prices in recent years, some customers said on social media.

I went to Chipotle a few years ago for the first time in a few years. I ordered one burrito with guacamole. It was $17! More than twice as expensive as my previous visit a few years earlier. Idk who they think they are, but I’ll never go back. I’m sure they still have plenty of customers who are willing to throw away their hard earned money on overpriced, mediocre food, but I am not one of them.
They’re disgusting. All of them. I’ve had to go to them on occasion to fix something for my job and every single one was nasty as fuck in the back. I’ve only eaten there once and it was subpart, especially for the cost. I will never eat there again.
Gross, who films someone doing their job. I would stop making the food until the phone gets put away.
