Reviews for On The Border Mexican Grill & Cantina - Cary in Cary, NC

Food was okay, portions were small. I won't go again as they really are short on staff. We waited for 30 mins to get a... table even though many tables were available. Also ambiance is very average. Years ago we use to go to their location in NJ, it use to be much nicer. Josh, our server was good, he did an excellent job. That was the only positive. Read more

Our server, Josh was absolutely phenomenal. Outstanding service and yummy food at a great price. With so many options available... in the area, On the Border continues to impress us with their welcoming staff and cool environment. Read more

The food was amazing just like I remember it, but the service was lackluster. It took a while to get my drink ordered. Other... than that, I enjoyed the visit. Love the ambiance in this location! Read more

Giving 3 stars solely because of our server. He was very attentive & friendly. Other than that, this place deserves 1 star at... best. There were only 2 other customers in the restaurant the entire time we were there but we waited 5 mins for someone togreet us & seat us when we walked in. Our food was cold, & the guacamole was turning black. Not sure why that would even beserved. Bathrooms need a good scrub & updating. Def not worth the 2&1/2hr one way drive. Read more

Great place for quesadillas! My fav.. the restaurant is always very noticeably clean and organized. Heather the manager always... made a point to visit us and make sure our food was perfect...you can tell her influence because he staff's dedication is seenthroughout the building during shift. I would give this 100 stars if I could! Read more

We have been here 4 times. The food is good but every time we go, the food is cold. Especially the beans and rice. Had to return... our food every time. But we keep going back for the friendly staff and great drinks. Hopefully one day we will get hot food thefirst time???? Read more

We got there around 7pm . Restaurant doesn?t close until 9pm and let me tell you the restaurant was a mess. We were sat around... tables with piles and piles of dirty dishes all around us, floor was full with trash. It felt super gross trying to eat yourfood with all The dirty dishes piled around you for two hours and no one picking it up. Don?t know if they usually leave dirtydishes on the table all night untill closing or we came across a bad day, but it felt like kids were running the restaurant withthe piles of trash piled up on each table . Im surprise it didn?t gross out the server as it grossed us out. Food was ok andservice was nice , our server was really great but management need to step it up with cleanliness. Read more

Food is awesome and fresh and they have excellent specials on drinks and food. I was really impressed I had the 3 cheese burrito... with black beans and rice and it was phenomenal. They have the best salsa Ive ever had at a Mexican restaurant and the besttortilla chips. Try the burrito you will love this place. Read more
