Review by Charlene Stokes

I recently dined at On The Border Mexican Grill & Cantina, and it was a delightful experience! 🌮

The vibrant atmosphere provides a perfect backdrop for their delicious Tex-Mex offerings. I ordered the sizzling fajitas, which were packed with flavor and served hot on a skillet. The guacamole was a fresh highlight, made right at the table.

Fast service made it a great spot for lunch, and I loved the happy hour drinks! Plus, it’s family-friendly with a great kids' menu. Overall, a fantastic place for a quick bite or a relaxed dinner. Can’t wait to return! 🎉
