I visit this place every time I’m in the Boston area. Love the ambience. As for food their blackened chicken is a must try. It’s high on flavor! If you planning to sit in the patio during summer beware of misquotes ;)

I have never had a meal I didn't love at the Border Cafe! as a parent, I've been taking my 6 and 8-year-old children there since they were weeks old. There's lots of fun music and lots of light which keeps them busy and entertained, setting an awesome atmosphere for a family dinner. The food is very good and very consistent. So easy to have a couple of favorites and know that you're always going to love them with each trip... You can never go wrong with the hot, fresh chips and salsa!

This was my first time trying Border Cafe, but I have been told it’s a great spot to stop for a bite to eat. There was a short wait, but on a Friday night during a dinner rush - we gladly waited 20 minutes for a seat. The food arrived piping hot and the dim lighting made it a great casual date night spot. We also had enough leftovers to make 2 more meals. We will be back - especially since my boyfriend can’t stop talking about the gumbo!

Excellent place for Mexican food and drinks. More than 100 guests can be seated at a time. Reservations are required. The restaurant was pretty busy and filled with guests enjoying the weekend. Plenty of parking space available including for differently abled people. Covid19 protocol strictly followed. Masks are compulsory. Sanitisers kept in handy. Colourful interior decorations. Good music 🎶 too. Food was tasty. They should have more varieties of drinks and beer too. Excellent service by the staff and they were all wearing white top shirts and dark trousers. Quick service. Rest rooms are there separately for men and women. There's a separate bar where one can sit and enjoy. Cubicle seating arrangements are also available. Wheelchair parking and access to the hotel is there. Surprisingly the restaurant takes the last order at 9.30 pm even though we went on Friday i.e., beginning of the weekend. Kids menu is also there. Vegetarian food has limited options. There was provision for outdoor seating also.

Monday is a day that we would consider as a definitely possibility for wide open inside, outside and under a giant tent day and night, but only till 8.

Are they doing inside dining yet???

They have a house margarita, strawberry, mango, and other ones with more upgraded alcohol than the house. Last I checked they were $7.50-$12 but most are under 10.
