Distinguished by fresh, high-quality food, cool decor and speedy service, Chipotle Mexican Grill is playing a leading role in the quick-gourmet restaurant industry with its vision of Food with Integrity (FWI). Chipotle's FWI philosophy stems from founder, chairman and CEO Steve Ells' commitment to move the restaurant chain toward using all responsibly and sustainably farmed ingredients. Chipotle has been on a mission to change the way people think about and eat fast food since opening its first restaurant in 1993. Aiming to show that food that was served fast doesn't have to be a typical fast food experience; Chipotle uses only fresh ingredients prepared in front of customers in an open kitchen. The menu focuses on just two things, yet with countless customer options.
