Sat Jan 15 07:57:28 -0800 2005 0 joe 1 805885 I was underwhelmed at the downtown Qdoba. I much prefer Cancun Express on Bedford St..about a block away..bordering Chinatown.

Sat Jan 15 19:26:56 -0800 2005 805885 0 ellie 3 808564 That is just wrong! I grew up in Colorado and places like Cancun or Andale wouldn't stay open. The reason a place like Qdoba (from Denver) thrives is because the food is good, it's fresh, and the flavors are unique. It's not the dry brown rice, smothered with cheese and red sauce type of what New Englanders think "traditional" mexican should be, it's meant to be unique. They wouldn't have been able to build 20 plus in Denver alone if the food wasn't good. People there have thousands of choices in Mexican.

Too much rice and way too bland, even with the supposedly spicy sauce. Sun Jan 16 14:27:21 -0800 2005 805856 0 Dax 1 805947 Qdoba is owned by Jack-in-the-Box, in case that influences your behavior. I went once, before I realized that, and wouldn't likely have gone back anyway. Mon Jan 17 11:15:24 -0800 2005 805856 0 glenn
