A Chipotle chicken bowl with rice, beans, cheese and salsa runs about 660 calories and 50 grams of protein. Add a tortilla or guacamole and it climbs past 1,300. Build your exact order below, or in one of the calculators, and watch the total add up from each brand's own published nutrition values.

Each calculator carries a dataset drawn from each brand's own published nutrition information. Pick the items you actually order and the totals update as you go. Nutrition values are estimates based on published brand data and may vary by location and preparation. See the 2026 Restaurant Nutrition Reference for the default build behind every calculator on this site.
Take the same bowl and change two choices, and the Chipotle calculator's own numbers show how much that moves. Chicken, white rice, black beans, cheese, mild salsa and lettuce, the default build on this site, comes to 660 calories and 50 grams of protein. Swap in a flour tortilla and a scoop of guacamole and the same bowl becomes a burrito that clears 1,210 calories, because the tortilla alone adds 320 calories and the guacamole adds another 230.
Protein tells a different story. Chicken, steak and chicken al pastor each carry about 32 grams of protein per serving, so switching between them barely changes the protein total, only the calories and fat. Sofritas, the plant-based option, sits at 16 grams of protein and 150 calories, roughly half the protein of the meat options for a similar calorie cost. None of this requires a nutritionist to work out. Open the Chipotle calculator, change one item at a time, and watch which number moves and by how much.
The most common one is treating "chicken bowl" as a single number instead of a stack of choices. Rice, beans, cheese, salsa and a tortilla each carry their own calorie line, and skipping past them to guess a round number is how a 660-calorie bowl gets misremembered as a 400-calorie one.
The second is forgetting the drink or the side. A calculator that only totals the entree misses the medium Coke or the extra donut that can add several hundred calories on its own, sometimes more than the entree itself. Building the full order, sides and drink included, in one calculator session is the only way to see the real total.
The third is assuming every location serves an identical portion. Brand-published values describe a standard serving size, but scoop size at the counter varies by store and by server. Treat the calculator's output as a close estimate for a standard order, not a lab-verified measurement of the exact bowl in front of you.
Every calculator on this site works the same way: pick your items, and the totals in the results panel update as you go, before you place the order. The top figure is always calories, since that is what most people check first, followed by protein, then carbs, fat and sodium where the brand publishes them. A dash in place of a number means that particular chain does not publish that field for that item, not that the value is zero.
The small note under the results panel names the source, brand-published nutrition values compiled into this site's own database, and links to the full 2026 Restaurant Nutrition Reference if you want to see every default build side by side. The calculation itself runs in your browser as you check boxes and change dropdowns, so there is no submit button and nothing saved or sent anywhere.
Sometimes. Chains rotate limited-time items and seasonal drinks throughout the year, and this site's database reflects the standard menu at last update. If a seasonal item is not in a calculator's dropdown yet, use the closest year-round equivalent to get a reasonable range.
Usually a toppings difference, an extra scoop of rice, a second squeeze of sauce, or a swapped protein that looks similar on the receipt but carries a different calorie count. Rebuilding the order item by item in the calculator, rather than guessing from memory, is the fastest way to find the gap.
They should be close. Both are built from the same brand-published nutrition disclosures required for chains with 20 or more locations. Small differences can show up if a brand updates its values and this site has not synced the change yet.
Yes, that is the main use case. Build the order you are planning to get before you get to the counter or the drive-through, see the total, and adjust an item or two if it runs higher than expected.
Menus refresh for the season more often than most people check back. Rebuild your usual order here every few months so the total still matches what is actually on the menu.
