Chipotle Quesadilla: Price, Fillings & How to Order (2026)

How much is a Chipotle quesadilla?

A Chipotle quesadilla costs $9.75 to $12.20 before tax at the stores we checked in October 2026. Chicken and cheese-only quesadillas share the lower price, and steak costs about $2 more. That puts every quesadilla about 55 cents above a bowl or burrito with the same filling.

The price includes three sides, which is where much of the value is. Rice, beans, fajita veggies, salsas and sour cream, which would go inside a bowl, come in separate cups here, so you get a full meal for that small premium. Premium extras such as guacamole and queso blanco may add a charge, and the app shows it before you pay.

If you are deciding between a quesadilla and a bowl with the same protein, think about texture rather than price. The quesadilla gives you melted cheese and a crisp tortilla, and the bowl gives you more control over each scoop.

For kids, the Kid's Quesadilla costs about $4.40 with cheese only or $5.15 to $5.30 with chicken, and it includes a side of chips or fruit and a drink.

Can you order a quesadilla in person at Chipotle?

No. Chipotle sells its regular quesadillas only through the Chipotle app and chipotle.com, for pickup or delivery. Chipotle says the quesadillas are made with a custom grill press that is only used for digital orders, so the crew on the serving line will not take a quesadilla order.

If you are already at the restaurant, you can still place a pickup order on your phone and wait for it. Delivery orders through the Chipotle app cost more than pickup, because menu prices are higher for delivery.

Chipotle describes each quesadilla as pressed to order, so it is not sitting ready on the line. Placing your order a little before you arrive, rather than at the door, saves you most of the wait.

What comes in a Chipotle quesadilla?

Inside, a Chipotle quesadilla has a large flour tortilla, Monterey Jack cheese and the protein you choose, folded and pressed until the outside is golden and crisp. Everything else comes on the side.

Fillings: adobo chicken, steak, beef barbacoa, carnitas, plant-based sofritas, fajita veggies or cheese only. Pollo asado has also been offered during its limited run. Options can vary by location.

Three sides: you pick three from options such as white or brown rice, black or pinto beans, fajita veggies, the salsas, sour cream, Cilantro Lime Sauce and guacamole. Sour cream, guacamole and fresh tomato salsa are popular picks.

The flour tortilla is made with wheat, so the quesadilla is not gluten-free. Chipotle also notes that the barbacoa may contain sulfites.

How many calories are in a Chipotle quesadilla?

A Chipotle cheese quesadilla starts at about 860 calories before sides, according to Chipotle. Adding a protein raises that, and Chipotle listed the pollo asado quesadilla at 1,010 calories. Your sides then add more: sour cream is 110 calories, guacamole 230, and the salsas 15 to 80.

If you are watching calories, choose salsas for your sides and pick steak or sofritas, the lightest proteins at 150 calories a portion. For more numbers, see Chipotle nutrition.

Can you get a free Chipotle quesadilla?

Sometimes. On National Quesadilla Day, Sept. 24 and 25, 2026, Chipotle gave a free quesadilla to share with digital orders of $20 or more in the U.S. and Canada. Chipotle Rewards members can also trade 1,625 points for a free quesadilla in the app or online, the same price in points as any entree. Current offers are on Chipotle deals, and the Chipotle tacos page covers the other tortilla-based entree. Every other item is on the full Chipotle menu.
