Chipotle - 820 S Monaco

Unlike last time I visited a Chipotle, I ordered my regular burrito with Chicken, white rice (fully cooked this time, but that tends to be a problem with their brown rice), black beans, a mix of salsas, cheese, sour cream, and guacamole. 

I tried to look up the address of this Chipotle on the restaurant's website and found that it's not listed. The location (in a strip mall near a King Soopers) is not the best, it sort of makes the restaurant isolated. If you are coming from the west and turn right on Monaco, then you have to weave through the KS parking lot and dodge shoppers. That can be an inconvenience if you don't know to turn in just east of Monaco allowing for quicker access to Chipotle. 

Another thing I have to say about this location is that the sunlight can be unbearable. At times it is hard to find a table that isn't in direct sunlight and even if it's 40 degrees outside, the Colorado sun can roast you in five minutes at one of these tables, especially with their metal tops. Bring your sunglasses into the restaurant if the sun is out.
