Great Atmosphere - Best Quacamole! 3/22/2010

This place was a fantastic surprise. From the outside it doesn't look like much, but the inside is quaint and comfortable and the food is fantastic! Pros: Table side quacamole! more

Food okay service terrible 8/1/2008

Food was okay, but the waitress had a problem. She would skip over our table throughout our time their in the restaurant. She waited on continously check on other patrons, but not us. We were the only race at that time. Made eye contact and she still bypass us. Did not check on us until she brought the check. I have no problem tipping and sometimes more than 20%. I did not leave any tip. She did not check to see if we needed any condiments. My child wanted ketchup with her fries, but the waitress never attempt to come over. I inform her as I left. I was upset my family was upset. My wife apoligized, because she had recommended this place. This was her second time and she said it was not like this when she came with her co-workers. My email is bkxzavier@yahoo.com. We have not been back since this event. more

Border Mexican Restaurant 7/11/2008

The Border is hands down one of my most favorite Mexican restaurants. I get the number eleven and it won't let you down. The service is quick and the staff are very friendly. more

very good! 4/9/2008

Honestly, I love this place. Good salsa, good hot chips, and the wait staff is very courteous and attentive. I thought the spinach quesadilla was great--lots of cheese, tons of spinach. The margaritas are excellent, too. Good prices on beer--it's one of my favorite restaurants. Pros: warm chips, good salsa, good margarita Cons: if you're coming from the north, turn into the BP to get to the restaurant more

Yummy 1/30/2008

I love Mexican food and this is a good place to go. The service is alright..but the food is pretty good! It's also good for the kids because they get little tortilla dough to play with. more

GREAT FOOD at an even BETTER PRICE 1/19/2008

BEST mexican restaurant in the world. Don't listen to the bad reviews - obviously those idiots don't know what they are talking about. The food is always hot and very good. The staff will bend over backwards to make sure that your meal is to your liking and that you do not go thirsty. The margaritas are excellent. Everything is well priced and enjoyable. Pros: Great Food and Service more

Great fresh food every time. 10/18/2007

I go to the Border Mexican Restaurant about once a month and all of my experience have been wonderful. I typically go on Saturday nights for dinner. There is usually no wait but the place is always busy. Chips and salsa (salsa is very good) are brought out promptly along my drink. There margaritas are a reasonable priced and the service size is larger than at most Mexican restaurants. The fajitas (my favorite) are fresh and flavorful. The service was helpful; they did not rush me through my meal and are very knowledgeable. I will often ask the server what he or she recommends for dinner so I can try new item from the menu. During the summer I recommend sitting out side on the deck the atmosphere inside is typical but the food and service make up for it 10 times over. Pros: Great Food Cons: To far away from where I live more

BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE AND HORRIBLE FOOD!!!!! 9/5/2007

Horrible place! When I asked for not tomatoes in my food due to food allergies they sais they had no problem. When i began to break out in rashes and become very uncomfortible they proceeded to check my food and call me basically a liar in spanish as if i cant understand them. They didnt even offer a disvount on the food after seeing my face, neck, and arms red and rashy. I paid for my dinner and will never return and SUGGEST HIGHLY THAT YOU DO THE SAME! The food was bad anyways and the service was really slow. Pros: good water Cons: food, service, and timelyness more

Below Average Mexican Food 4/19/2007

I hate writing bad reviews, so I always try to think of something positive to say, but in the 1 visit I made to Border there weren't a lot of positive things to say. The salsa wasn't very good and the chips tasted of oil. I'm a vegetarian and most Mexican restaurants are kind enough to make me a veggie burrito (if it's not already on the menu), but Border told me to pick something off the menu. I tried the spinach quesadilla and it was terrible! The spinach tasted like dirt with a bunch of cheese glopped onto it but I choked it down since my friend said she liked the place. My friend said Border was the "office Mexican" restaurant so maybe I caught them on a bad day, but I won't be likely to go back unless it's with her, and even then I'd suggest an alternative first (like Taco Bell across the street!). Eat at your own risk. Cons: Untasty food, slow service more

Avoid at all costs 11/10/2006

Where to begin? A group of five co-workers went to lunch. We were seated after less than a five minute wait and our order was taken promptly. After about 45 minutes we decided to inquire about why our food had not arrived. We were told that we were in the system and that there was nothing that could be done to expedite our order. The server came to our table and we complained about the wait. He shrugged and told us to speak with his manager, there was nothing he could do. I went to speak with the manager and she turned me back over to the man to whom we had been speaking with earlier. It turns out that he was the owner of the restaurant! A few minutes later our food finally came out and the only thing good I can say was that it was hot. The food quality was terrible. The owner made no effort at keeping our business. We told him we would not be back due to the poor customer service and he once again just shrugged. As we got to the register to pay, another customer was complaining about the poor quality of the food and announced that he would not be back either. Finally the owner told us all to "Just pay and don't come back!" Don't worry, we won't. Pros: Great chips and salsa Cons: Terrible service, terrible food more
