Allergen notes: Monterey Jack cheese, sour cream, and queso blanco contain milk (dairy). The toppings themselves are prepared without gluten ingredients, but shared preparation areas mean cross-contact is possible. The chipotle-honey vinaigrette contains soy. Allergen information can change — if you have a food allergy, always confirm with Chipotle’s official nutrition and allergen guide or ask the restaurant team before ordering.
