Nothing here is printed anywhere, and no name on this page will be recognised at the till. The Chipotle secret menu is a set of instructions rather than a list. Every build comes off the same serving line as a normal order, so asking for the components is what gets one made.
Build-your-own service is what makes these orders possible at all. Staff already handle custom requests every hour of the day, so a swapped base or a doubled protein lands as ordinary work. What you pay stays tied to the entree you started from, and extra proteins or guacamole are charged as usual.
The short answer
The Chipotle secret menu is ordered by describing a build, not by naming it, because none of these items exist on any board. Quesarito, Burritodilla, Nachos and Double Decker all start from a listed entree. Sauces are mixed from things already on the line.

Chipotle Secret Menu Items and How to Order Them
Assembly is the whole trick, and it happens in front of you either way. A Quesarito is a burrito parcelled inside a cheese quesadilla, and Nachos are a bowl with chips standing in for rice. Some builds a server will make outright. Others come to you as two separate items to combine yourself.
Base figures on this page follow the chicken version of each entree, since chicken is the reference protein across formats. Steak, barbacoa and carne asada lift every one of these by the same amount they lift a normal order. Full Chipotle menu prices sit on the main page. Nothing off-menu carries a discount for being off-menu.
Chipotle Secret Menu Builds
Quesarito wraps a whole burrito inside a cheese quesadilla, and it is messy enough that a server may decline to build it. Burritodilla goes the other way, packing roughly half a burrito’s toppings into a quesadilla before it is pressed. Nachos swap the rice in a bowl for tortilla chips. Double Decker stacks a cheese-only soft taco around whichever taco you already ordered.
| Item | How to order it | Base price |
|---|---|---|
| Quesarito | Order a burrito and a quesadilla, then wrap the burrito inside the cheesy shell. | $10.75 |
| Burritodilla | Ask for a quesadilla filled with about half the toppings you would put in a burrito. | $11.25 |
| Double-Wrapped Burrito | Ask for the burrito you want to be wrapped in a second tortilla. | $10.75 |
| Nachos | Order a burrito bowl and ask for tortilla chips in place of the rice. | $10.75 |
| Double Decker | Order your taco, then a soft taco filled with cheese alone, and stack the two. | $10.75 |
| Two-for-One | Order a burrito bowl with extra toppings and two tortillas, then split it between them. | $10.75 |
Chipotle Secret Menu Sauces
Spicy Queso Sauce comes from stirring tomatillo-red chili salsa straight into a side of warm queso blanco. Dragon Sauce pairs the same red salsa with sour cream instead, which turns it cool and creamy rather than sharp. Both work as a dip for chips or a drizzle over tacos. Queso blanco declares milk, and so does the sour cream underneath Dragon Sauce.
| Sauce | How to order it | Cost |
|---|---|---|
| Spicy Queso Sauce | Order a side of queso blanco and a side of tomatillo-red chili salsa, then stir them together. | $3.70 |
| Dragon Sauce | Ask for sour cream and tomatillo-red chili salsa, then mix them into one dip. | Free |
Chipotle Ordering Tricks Regulars Use
Mix and Match takes the either-or out of the line, so two proteins or five toppings can land in one build. The Three-Pointer counts ingredients rather than naming a dish, treating meat and guacamole as double. Free Guacamole follows from choosing guacamole over meat on a vegetarian build. Free Cilantro and the Single Taco are simply asked for at the counter, and none of these Chipotle secret menu tricks needs a special name.
| Trick | What to ask for |
|---|---|
| Mix and Match | Ask for two proteins or several toppings in one build rather than choosing between them. |
| The Three-Pointer | Ask for a burrito built from three one-point ingredients, counting meat or guacamole as two. |
| Free Guacamole | Choose guacamole in place of meat on a vegetarian build. |
| Free Cilantro | Ask at the counter for extra cilantro. |
| Single Taco | Ask for one hard or soft shell taco rather than the usual three. |
Ordering the Chipotle Secret Menu
Arriving with the instructions matters more than knowing the name, because most Chipotle secret menu orders will not be recognised. Counter service handles the widest range, since custom assembly is already the job. The app covers anything built from listed items and extra ingredients, but it will not fold a Quesarito. Chipotle itself endorsed the Spicy Queso Sauce, which is unusual for anything off-menu.
| Where you order | What works |
|---|---|
| At the counter | Every build here, because staff assemble custom orders all day |
| In the Chipotle app | Anything made from listed items and extra ingredients, such as a bowl with chips |
| Combined at home | Sauces and nachos, where two ordered items get mixed after collection |
