Don't bank on it. If it is anything like Rojoz, it will be a long, long, long, long, wait even though they announce an opening day, they pass ......... sigh!!!

Yes, but even if Rojos was open I wouldn't go there! I was sitting there having coffee at Peets the other day and the owner (i guess it was ) was there in Rojos with her dog(!!) inside. Yuck. I love dogs, don't get me wrong, but that must violate some kind of health code, you know? I could see that she had the dog behind the counter, where the food prep is, and that is just SO wrong, in a restaurant!

Hmmm makes me hungry for a Thịt chó burrito.

Where is Rojos located now?

I cannot figure out where the location is. Anyone?

2675 El Camino Real is one block north of Oregon Expressway, on the east side of El Camino.

Rojoz is looking like it is ready to open, in the Charleston Center by Piazzas.

Will Chipotle and Rojozs be building housing in Palo Alto for their workers? If not, then why not?

I have never had particularly good service at Chipotle, and their food is mediocre. It's a chain that we don't need more of, imo.

The family-run Mexican restaurants seem to produce much better food for about the same price. I don't know why the Americanized chains are so popular.

I LOVE the food at Chipotle. It's also clean. It's great to have Chipotle in town!!!

"Thịt chó burrito" Ha! That's one way to get past the censors ;)

Only service dogs allowed in food stores and restaurants according to the department of health.

rojoz is now open!

I agree with you re the food at family run restaurants serving Mexican dishes beign better than Chipotle. Recommendation: a drive thru place in EPA on the corner of University Avenue and Bay, across from the McDonalds. fast service, great prices, all items to go. Whole beans, their hot suace is the bomb. You can get a "naked burrito" - in reality, a platter, to cut down on carbs if you want. Worth a trip to the east side.

I have been to Chipotle's twice, disappointed each time. Bummer!
