" Came here during lunchtime and was pleasantly surprised! The food was fresh, and the selection offered a great variety. I had the chicken quesadilla, and it was packed with flavors. The atmosphere was bright and cheerful. Service was a little slow, but understandable during the busy hours. I'm definitely aiming to come back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited On The Border with my girlfriend, and we had a great time! The atmosphere was festive, and we felt right at home. She ordered tacos and I had the chicken enchiladas—they were really good! Just a bit mild in flavor, but they had the right texture. Our waitress was sweet but a bit slow. Overall, great ambiance and decent food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Very disappointed. I honestly don't understand the hype around this place. My meal was cold, and the server seemed more interested in their phone than taking care of us. I got the chicken burrito, and it lacked flavor—completely bland. On the flip side, the drinks were enjoyable and the place was clean. I might give it another shot, but I'll think twice next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" This restaurant is a must-visit for anyone who loves Mexican food! My friends and I came here for dinner and were not disappointed. We tried almost everything on the menu during happy hour, and everything was scrumptious. The staff made us feel welcomed and attended to our needs without delay. I can’t wait to come back and bring my family here! " (*Curated Review*)

" It's a nice place to go for a casual dinner. The food tasted good, but I found some toppings lacking compared to similar dishes at other establishments. The environment was inviting, although we felt a little rushed towards the end of our meal. Still, I'd consider returning to try different items on the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" Just had a delightful lunch here! The burrito was huge and incredibly tasty! Our server was polite and proactive. The vibe of the restaurant was very pleasant, making my lunch break feel extra special. I'd say On The Border is definitely a favorite for Mexican cuisine lovers! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had high expectations after seeing so many good reviews, but my experience was not the same. The carne asada quesadilla was decent but lacking seasoning, and the guacamole was bland. The service was adequate but nothing to write home about. I might consider trying it again, but probably not any time soon. " (*Curated Review*)
