...seven days a week. Qdoba’s flashy website provides a preview for students wondering what culinary creations will next hit the Square. A chicken taco salad features a “crispy flour tortilla bowl filled with shredded romaine, black bean corn salsa, picante ranch dressing, lite sour cream and choice of salsa.” Liwerant, a Mexico native and 1998 graduate of Harvard’s Graduate School of Design, said he was looking for a street-level location close to the Yard that was also handicap accessible.
