rt, some people said Chipotle is more like American food. Just want to know everybody's opinion on this subject.

I'd categorize it firmly under "tex-mex", with some "california cuisine" influences thrown in. Very heavy Mexican influence, but not exactly how Mexicans cook it.

Could also just call it "southwestern" or "mexican-american" if you want, both work. Probably southwestern would be most precise.
