About On The Border

The first restaurant was opened in Dallas, Texas in October 1982 by three friends who shared the same interest of spreading Border-style food across the world.

There are now more than 160 On The Border locations within the U.S., 2 locations in Puerto Rico, and 9 in South Korea.

On The Border Review

On The Border restaurants have a pleasant ambiance, spacious indoor seating (some locations also have outdoor seating), and decorative interiors. The place is suitable for children as well.

With their flavorful and scrumptious taste, you can tell that the dishes are made with fresh quality ingredients. Food is perfectly cooked and is always served hot and on time.

There are plenty of meal options available. Fried fish tacos, carne asada fries, and queso dipping sauce are some of the stand-outs. Menu also includes enchiladas, burritos, and desserts.

The staff members are always accommodating, attentive, and ready to serve. They are highly knowledgeable of the restaurant’s menu and provide good food recommendations and dietary restrictions.
