The food is great, the services are awesome, and the staff are very friendly and uplifting. Me and a group dined in. We bought tacos, and the materials to make them. If you like Mexican food, I highly recommend this place to eat! There is a decent selection of parking, handicap parking, etc. Just love it!
Parking: Parking is great! The parking lot is of no cost to customers, and there is also a good selection of handicap parking.
Kid-friendliness: For the most part on the border Mexican grill is kid friendly. There is not a play place, however just like most restaurants, it is a friendly environment for children, teens, adults, and seniors.
Wheelchair accessibility: On the border Mexican grill is mostly wheelchair friendly, however the spaces between tables may be a little closed in. But yes, this place is wheelchair friendly.

My favorite Mexican restaurant in the Springs. It's rarely crowded, and the food is good and reasonably priced. Their chips and salsa are a fav!

Food is phenomenal as always, never disappointed! The overall quality has dropped a bit with the new management, but it's still pretty good in general.

We got the birria taco plate and combo plate with a burrito and an enchilada. Meal started with the standard chips and salsa, which I gave an average ranking. Salsa was about a 6/10 for flavor. Meals were very good. Bitria tacos were decent, consume was mediocre. Server was very friendly, which helped the overall rating. We were able to get seated immediately. Overall it was a pretty good meal.

My son loves OTB's chicken tenders. So, whenever it's his choice, it's OTB. Yes, we go to a Mexican restaurant for its chicken tenders.
While it's not horrible, there are other Mexican restaurants that I much prefer.
This trip I had the lunch Chimichanga with Chicken Tinga. Sides - rice and refried beans. They were good and I'm not dissing OTB, it's just I prefer others, which you can read about in my other reviews.
Our server, Amy, was terrific.
The sweet tea was very sweet - if you order get a 1/2 sweet, 1/2 unsweetened.
