" On The Border has become a staple for my friends and me. The fajitas never disappoint, and the chips are always fresh! We've had a couple of ups and downs with service, but overall it’s a restaurant worth visiting multiple times. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the best experience at On The Border! The food was fresh and delicious! We enjoyed the classic salsa and chips that were given as appetizers. I ordered the grilled shrimp and my partner had the steak burrito. All I can say is WOW! Would recommend this restaurant to anyone! " (*Curated Review*)

" While the food was decent, I expected a more authentic experience. The flavors felt somewhat toned down for wider appeal. The service was friendly, but not very attentive, and the wait for our food felt longer than expected. I wouldn't say no to giving it another try in the future though! There are certainly some potential here. " (*Curated Review*)

" Came here for dinner the other night, and while the atmosphere was lively, the service was lacking. Our server was overwhelmed, which resulted in us waiting too long for our food. I ordered enchiladas that were okay, but I've had better in other restaurants. I'd suggest management look into staff training and maybe add a few more servers during busy hours. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a hard time finding parking, but it was worth it! The food was fresh and flavorful, particularly the carne asada tacos. The place felt vibrant but service was a little slow. Overall, I enjoyed my meal and would come back again for sure, just hope the wait time is shorter next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" On The Border is my go-to for a quick Mexican fix. The service is consistently good and they always have daily specials. I tried the shrimp tacos and they did not disappoint. A little on the spicy side just how I like it! Just wish they had a few more vegetarian options on the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" On The Border is very inconsistent, having visited several times. This last time, my steak was overcooked, while the tortillas were stale. The staff was friendly, but waiting for our food took longer than anticipated. With so many Mexican options in the area, I might try other places first. " (*Curated Review*)
