Chipotle Nutrition Facts: The Full Menu Breakdown

October 20, 2026 · Viral Tandel

Chipotle nutrition facts are unusually easy to get right, because Chipotle publishes one nutrition sheet covering every base, protein, bean, salsa, topping and side on the menu, and every number below comes straight from it. This is the fullest version of that sheet in one place on this site, including the sides that a single bowl or burrito breakdown tends to leave out.

Key takeaways

• Every figure below is copied from Chipotle's own published nutrition sheet, not estimated.
• Chips are the single biggest calorie item on the menu covered here: 540 kcal for a regular 4 oz serving, 810 kcal for the large 6 oz size, before any dip.
• Guacamole (230 kcal for 4 oz) and queso (120 kcal for 2 oz as an entree topping, 240 kcal for the larger 4 oz side) are the two toppings that move a total the most.
• Proteins range from 150 kcal (steak, sofritas) to 210 kcal (carnitas) for the same 4 oz serving size.
• This guide covers Chipotle's food menu. Fountain drinks are not part of the published sheet it draws from, so they are not included.

Bases

Both rice options cost the same 210 kcal per serving; brown rice trades a little carbohydrate for a little more fat. Supergreens, the salad base, is a fraction of either, by far the lowest-calorie way to start a bowl.

Proteins

Chicken carries the most protein per calorie of the five. Steak and sofritas tie for fewest calories, but for different reasons: steak from being a leaner cut, sofritas from being plant based rather than higher in protein.

Rice and beans

Black and pinto beans are close enough in every column that the choice comes down to taste rather than nutrition. Fajita vegetables add flavor and almost nothing else.

Salsas and toppings

Three of the mild salsas cost next to nothing calorically. Guacamole is the outlier of the whole toppings list, close to as many calories as an entire protein serving, and the vinaigrette, easy to forget since it reads as a salad dressing rather than a topping, carries more calories than most people expect from something poured rather than scooped.

Sides

Sides are where the biggest single numbers on this whole menu live. A regular bag of chips alone, before any queso or guacamole for dipping, already carries more calories than most of the burrito and bowl proteins above. Order chips and a side of queso together and you have added roughly 780 kcal to whatever main item you ordered, without changing the bowl or burrito itself at all.

Building a bowl versus a burrito

Every figure above works the same way whether you are building a bowl or a burrito: pick a base, a protein, rice or beans, salsa and toppings, and add them up. The one component that only shows up in a burrito is the tortilla itself, and it is a big enough addition that it gets its own breakdown in Chipotle burrito calories, including exactly how much it adds on top of an otherwise identical bowl. For fully worked bowl totals, a lean, a standard and a loaded version built from the tables above, see Chipotle bowl calories.

How this compares to other chains

For how a Chipotle order stacks up against a Starbucks drink or a Subway sandwich, see the Chipotle, Starbucks and Subway calories guide. Starbucks gets the same sourced treatment in Starbucks nutrition facts.

If your usual order does not match a case study elsewhere on this site, the fastest way to check it is to add up the components above yourself, or log your exact combination in KalTrack and compare the estimate against these published figures.
