3. Taco Bueno (put here for contrast only)
4. Qdoba
5. Moes

I am glad that they are finally in the area so that I don't just get to eat them on business trips!

Qdoba is taking over the old defunct Burger King location at 71st/Memorial.

Tried them 3 times, thrice disappointed.

My personal ranking:
1. The now extinct Atomic Burrito
2. Moe's
3. Chipolte
4. Qdoba

None of them are as good as they could be....which is why I might just have to open....Jose Madre's Burritio Bar and Cantina...

Someday.

I thought Qdoba was nothing more than a re-brand, re-package, and re-hash of Atomic Burrito.  Is it not?

i've heard various rumor mill stories about qdoba atomic burrito, but this I know, Atomic Burrito did NOT sell their concept to the entity that became Qdoba.  Qdoba has been around since 1995, longer than Atomic burrito.

I think what happened was atomic burrito owned the qdoba franchise rights for the tulsa area.  Later when they decided to get out of the burrito business and instead do Los Cabos, they sold the rights to someone else who then brought in Qdoba.  That is all just speculation, but plausible speculation.

Qdoba is owned by Jack in the Box.  That right there should tell you their quality.

Also, Qdoba started in Denver two years after Chipolte started in Denver, so they are without a doubt, a Chipotle wannabe.

I had no idea Los Cabos was the same guys as Atomic Gut Bomb.  I actually like Los Cabos pretty well.

Nah, I'm only an amateur. I hope to move up to the pros someday, though.

I heard QDOBA didn't want to enter the Tulsa Market with competition so they "bought" atomic burrito name and rights. The owners turned the 71st & Garnett location into a horrible mexican restaurant named Los Cabos. It sucked bad and closed. Then later they opened a new Los Cabos in riverwalk and then BA.

I like Qdoba.  Never had a problem with it.

Love Qdoba
Always have...
I and my wife love the steak quesadillas and my son loves the steak burrito although I dont like rice in my burrito he loves rice period and enjoys the burrito w/ rice...

HOWEVER Chipotles is another story at least here in Tulsa...
We LOVED Chipotle's in dallas a few years ago and was excited to hear they were opening in Tulsa and went twice... It was just mediocre...
I would almost swear there is a difference in the menu from Dallas to Tulsa...
Seems to have less options than I remember in Dallas...
The steak tacos were great flavor-wise but a little pricy IMHO...
Better food and service at El Fogon just north German corner in Owasso...

Same Menu and Prices I had in Dallas 5 years ago. Only difference is that you used to get 4 crispy tacos instead of 3.
