Blue Lagoon Margarita is highly recommended, the NEW BIG double stuffed chicken quesadilla was to die for but wayyy to much food. The freshly made guacamole was amazing!

If you're craving Mexican food and are seeking to dine in at a place like no other, you should definitely consider eating at On The Border Mexican Grill and Cantina. The food served there is excellent and not at all ubitiqious. The chicken fajitas we had were delicious - the chicken and vegetables were well cooked, fried rice and beans perfectly prepared, tortillas like no other. In addition, I appreciated the fact that complimentary chips and salsa were given. Refills were also permitted (for free). Hence, for these reasons, I would consider eating at this restaurant again and recommend it to anyone else.

OtB brings me back to my past. I remember frequently eating here 20+ years ago when I lived in Arizona. Honestly, not much has changed. Even the decor at this location while a little worse for wear, was quite reminiscent of the AZ location. I guess that’s the beauty of a chain restaurant, consistency. Service was friendly and very efficient. We had margaritas, warm chips and salsa within moments of being sat. House margaritas were definitely on the more powerful side which I loved. Oh and the chips, same as years ago, thin halved corn tortillas fried golden and crispy, salsa, also the same with a mild fresh taste. Apps.. can’t go wrong with their Queso Fundido. Spoon a few tablespoons of creamy melted cheese onto a freshly made hot flour tortilla, game over. Was exactly how I remembered it. Honestly compared to other local Mexican restaurants OtBs version wasn’t greasy and broken; pays to be doing something for a long time. We also had their guacamole, needed more lime and salt but that we an easy fix. Entrees, I had Ultimate Fajita’s, chicken, shrimp, steak and carnitas all served on a bed of peppers, onions and squash. I thought I’d hate the squash but it was pretty darn good dunked in the accompanied hot butter. They came out sizzling hot and delicious. My hubby had the Enchiladas Suizas. I had a few bites, pretty good but didn’t really compare to my fajitas. All in all we had a good time and left very satisfied. Given that we live downtown, I’d be hard pressed to drive all the way there unless of course I was in the area or feeling nostalgic.

The On the Border Restaurant in Mira Mesa have some of the most delicious mexican foods. They serve a free snack of chips and salsa and many good options for food. The chicken fajitas were eaten in no time. Highly recommended.👍

Food was ok. Had the Chipotle shrimp tacos but tasted more like sweet bbq. Service wasn't bad. I added a shot to my tequila flight but .... won't go there to drink alcohol.. can't recommend anything unless I go try some other dishes. My companion said the chicken quesadilla was pretty good.

We went to the On The Border at Mission Valley before in our old neighborhood and this was our first time to try our this one in Mira Mesa. We loved it just like before. They have super great deals on Happy Hours, good drinks deal and great appetizers deal. The food quantity and quality are amazing. For my personal recommendations, I highly recommend Long Island Ice Tea for drink and Rolled tacos for food. We also tried their fajitas before, we also loved that. Also the churro dessert are pretty delicious!

A good OTB location. In San Diego, there are a lot of Mexican options, but OTB is a good crowd-pleasing chain for Tex Mex. Our server was so attentive and friendly, with chips on the table almost immediately. The food was tasty, portions were great, and we have no complaints. It’s not authentic, but it’s good.

Very attentive server. Chips and salsa to start with some water. Kids ordered chicken enchiladas. I got some blue drink. It was great. Thank you.
