" What a delightful dining experience! Our family decided to stop here while on a road trip, and it did not disappoint! The live guacamole was a treat to watch being made, and the flavors were spot on. I ordered the shrimp fajitas, and they were perfectly grilled and seasoned. The server was knowledgeable about the menu and gave us great recommendations. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a real taste of Mexico! " (*Curated Review*)

" I cannot stress how much I enjoyed the fiery salsa they serve here! It was the perfect complement to the chips. I ordered the chicken flautas, and they hit the spot. The service was kind and attentive, although they were quite busy. The dining environment was friendly and casual, great for families or groups. Overall, a great dining experience that I would recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm always hesitant about chain restaurants for Mexican food, but On The Border left a decent impression. The guacamole they prepare fresh at the table is definitely a treat! It's made right in front of you and tastes amazing. I would like to try more of their menu to see if they have a wider range of authentic dishes. The service was not bad either – excited to explore more! " (*Curated Review*)

" I tried On The Border last night and was pleasantly surprised! The wait wasn't long, and my server was polite and prompt. I ordered the carne asada which was perfectly cooked, juicy and seasoned perfectly, but the portion size for the price was a little off. It could have been more substantial. Overall a good experience, but maybe a bit on the pricier side for what you get. " (*Curated Review*)

" On The Border is a decent option for casual dining. The atmosphere felt a bit fragmented, likely due to the restaurant being full on a Friday night. My friends and I tried the sampler platter, which had a nice variety of flavors. It was satisfying, but I felt like some items were over-fried. The margaritas were refreshing, but for the most part, the food tasted average. Might come back based on convenience, but not a destination for me. " (*Curated Review*)

" We didn't not enjoy our experience at On The Border. The steak burrito I ordered was lackluster and the rice was cold. Our server did not check in on us enough, which left us feeling neglected. I’ll be looking for better options in the future. Sadly disappointed. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't get enough of On The Border! Their nachos are the best in town - crispy, loaded, and topped with fantastic salsa. I appreciate that they always seem to have a deal on drinks too. The staff is super friendly; they've recognized us as regulars and always make sure we're comfortable. I recommend this place to anyone looking for good food and a laid-back atmosphere.
