“Despite minimal indications that this transformation is in progress,”
Still?
I’ve eaten a lot of Qdoba in my days at many locations but things have gone downhill since the latest private equity purchase.
The project is still alive as of January 2024, that was a year ago with no activity. The building has become an eyesore on the prominent corner of the City.
Good. This, nor Chipotle, have never been good. Well, I suppose they were once good enough for even Indiana.
Give your alternate in the fast casual Mexican space.
There are at least two, one on Lafayette and the other on Michigan Road. Their presence or absence does not impact the fact that Qdoba and Chipotle are hot garbage.
I’m glad they’re so good you can name them. There’s 11 Mexican places on Lafayette Road alone between 38th Street and 465. Add to the discourse.
The names aren’t relevant to the low quality of Qdoba or Chipotle. I’m not even sure how that matters in any respect. There are more than 11 Mexican restaurants along that segment of Lafayette Rd, but only one that can be classified as fast casual. But again, its existence doesn’t weaken or strengthen the position that these chain places are not good.
If you went to a stockbroker who told you that your portfolio was trash and refused to even name one single alternative to your chosen investments, what would you do with their advice, other than likely find it entirely unhelpful and a waste of the time you spent reading or hearing it?
Don’t engage with Murray R. He’s THEE most negative person to ever leave comments on IBJ. ALL of his posts are sour. He’s the stereotypical “get off my lawn” old man.
You’re right. I should feign dismay that a place that was bad ten years ago, and worse at the time of closing, has closed.
I remember it was much better when it was Z-Tecca
