On The Border Mexican Grill & Cantina - Algonquin

I absolutely love this place! Other than the fact that the food is AMAZING! The atmosphere with the lighting and architecture is phenomenal. I love the colorful sun and the queso. I highly recommend going to this place. Also, the staff is super friendly! And they he food was quick to come out.

Fajitas are great. My family loves coming out on special occasions. Food is good and staff is friendly. If there is a choice between this and that pepper place, this is a better bang for your buck.

Had a great experience. Our server was gracious and so kind. Wished I would have gotten her name. We were in on business made a quick stop because the Salsa is the best. Got the steak tacos Al Carbon for the first time and whew….love them. For a chain these were legit good tacos.

The service was great. Food and drinks were on the spot. Clean restaurant.

The dessert! The Brownie DESSERT is freaken amazing. Hot and yummy wow. Wow. Wow. The bar is FUN at this On the Border. Raul and Orlando outstanding service. This is the place for drinks, fun and food. Quick service very nice service and hospitality. Our margaritas are always perfect and tasting on the rocks. The food is excellent for a American style Mexican food. The restaurant is well kept and the waitresses are on point. We haven't experienced a busy time but our Tuesdays, Wednesday's and especially Thuraday have been pretty awesome. The Guac and chips freshly made and yummy. The Ultimate Fajitas and the Smokehouse Fajitas are GREAT and my wife and I always order both so we can enjoy the grill chicken, grill shrimps, steak, ribs, sausages, braised carnitas and brisket. They put excellent effort on the beans and rice which is rare in restaurants. Everything is tasty and sizzling when served.
Sheeeeesh it's Soooo worth it!!! Get to the Bar :)

We came on a Saturday afternoon and it was pretty quiet. Great food, drink, and service at this location. I really dug the beer chandelier and oversized tequila bottles on the wall. They also apparently have weekly lunch specials that I took photos of for reference.

We had steak and enchiladas and the cheese grilled chicken. Both entrees were really good. We went back yesterday September 16 and everything was very good. The queso with beef and guacamole, chicken tortilla soup and shrimp bowls. Ava was very helpful and courteous.

Service was some of the best I’ve ever seen, Cindi, the server, was the nicest server I’ve ever seen, and the food was really good. It was a little bit dirty, but great overall!

Our server, Nathan, was top notch. Food was great. I hope we are lucky enough to have Nathan again next time.

On The Border is one of my favorites Mexican restaurants in our neighborhood. On Sunday evening I had ordered one of my favorites dishes grilled shrimp and carnitas fajitas and signature Queso. OMG!!! This was out of this world and so tasty. The way the chef cook Juan Hernadez prepared the dish was second to none. I called the restaurant to thank over the phone
for this delicious dinner. I really enjoyed it. MUCHAS GRACIAS :)

Oh my GOODNESS YOU GUYS: Shawn (Sean?) is the best freaking human ever. He assisted us throughout our entire dinner and offered things to us without us even having to ask. Highly recommend him. We were able to get our salsa to go! The food is so good and always fresh no matter what.

This restaurant has always been a family favorite, it never fails, it always is absolutely delicious and we always have a great experience due to the atmosphere and the extremely kind staff!

Nice place great food great service
They even have happy hours
Enjoyed a lot here
They are kind enough to make anything on the menu suitable for vegetarians
The margaritas are amazing

Service was great. Did not like the chicken tortilla soup but my salad was delicious. The portions are large. We usually get another meal out of it.

Crowded as usual, a good sign that there is good food. They manage to keep the menu updated with popular new items like birria tacos

Excellent food! So much food fir great price.
Thank you

Good location, friendly staff. Various menu choices with some new appetizers.

We had carol as our server and she was awesome! Great lunch.

Raul is always on top of his game as one of the BEST bartenders at this location. Good Listener while always keeping his eye out for his other patrons. We will definitely be back for Raul's EXCELLENT service:)))

One of our kids favorite places to go in eat after church. Very good Mexican food that is enjoyed by all of us. The Guacamole Live is amazing! Definitely try this place if you want good Mexican food in a fun environment.
