Qdoba Mexican Grill

Ok this Qdoba restored all my faith in Qdobas, so for that you earn 5 stars.  It is located at Primm next to a Chevron gas station/Subway/Dairy Queen.

If you've gone to Chipotle, there's no way you could go to Qdoba and not compare it to Chipotle.  

1. Pick the shape of your food, including: taco, burrito, naked burrito (bowl instead of tortilla), salad, nachos, quesadilla...
2. Pick your rice (cilantro rice or spanish brown rice) and beans
3. Pick your meat: chicken, steak, pulled pork
4. Pick your toppings: salsas, sour cream, cheese, guac...

So naturally, when I had gone to Qdoba before (it was in California), I ordered my Chipotle equivalent:
- for burrito: rice, beans, steak, pico de gallo, corn, sour cream cheese
- for salad: same as above with chicken, plus lettuce

But I did not like those that much at Qdoba, they were kind of bland.  Perhaps I just enjoy the salad dressing more at Chipotle?

Anyways, back to this one particular experience at this Qdoba at Primm, on the way home from Vegas last sunday.  I wanted something that I could easily eat in the car with a fork so I opted for the naked burrito, with the spanish rice, black beans, steak, pico de gallo, corn salsa, sour cream and shredded cheese.  The customer before me had ordered nachos and the cheese sauce looked really good, so I got some of that too... and that naked burrito was soooooooo good!!

One of my friends dislikes Chipotle because the food always comes out cold.  If you feel the same, go to Qdoba and get some of that warm gooey cheese sauceeee mmmmm... The steak was flavorful and tender like it had just been cooked.  The pico de gallo and corn were fresh.  It was a comforting dish, especially when you're coming back from Vegas all tired and want to relax with some warm food.  I am now willing to go to any Qdoba again to eat this!

The bonus about this location is that it's connected to the gas station and convenience store.  sooooo... get some hot cheetos to sprinkle on top...  yum.  Good service too!

Located at the Chevron Truck Stop near the Whiskey Pete's parking garage, along with a convenience mart, Starbucks, and Subway.

This review is for 3.5 stars. We had a late dinner, after 8 pm (we went back to the outlet mall). The prices were reasonable $6.25 for a chicken salad. The salad size was pretty big, grilled chicken, green lettuce, corn, medium salsa, sour cream and shredded cheese, served inside a taco shell. It was good, but the chicken seemed to be a tad overdone or maybe it was old. The salsa was really good. My husband got a burrito was it was a little on the small side. Good thing we made a beeline for this place, because there ended up being a long line here, one set of customers at Subway (the pricing was really expensive there), but the rest were here. Free refills, next to cashier/counter.

The seating for all the eats here, was huge- bar stools along the wall, and tables with chairs- about 20 of them. Clean too. Free Wi-Fi here.

Convenient location because if you needed gas or snacks, you could come here too, since everything is here at the truck stop. Also, a little casino area in front too.

This is a good spot to stop at if you're in need of a quick and convenient place to grab food at Stateline. The exit off the 15 is easy and it shares space with a Starbucks, Subway, Chevron gas station and in the future a Diary Queen will be opening. Their restrooms are clean and there's also an ATM.

In terms of food, this is almost identical to a Chipotle. They make tacos, burritos, quesadillas and salads with choices of black beans, white cilantro lime rice, corn salsa, fajita veggies, etc. I think their portions might be slightly smaller than Chipotle, but other than that, the is quality very comparable.
