Jambalaya and chicken enchiladas were delicious. Chips lacked flavor a little bit. Not quite as good as their sister restaurant in NJ but still very good bang for your buck

Their enchiladas are THE BEST. You also can’t beat unlimited chips and salsa with every meal!
We go to this restaurant at least once a week and have also ordered online many times. I always order the chicken quesadillas or chicken enchiladas with a Coke, and my fiancé always orders the shrimp taco with no house sauce due to a food allergy, using sour cream instead. The online ordering system does not allow modifications, which hasn’t been an issue in the past because I always call immediately after placing the order to notify the kitchen about the allergy. Until recently, this was never a problem. Lately, however, the host and manager have been extremely rude and unprofessional. The host said she had to check with the manager just to notify the kitchen of an allergy-related request to remove an ingredient. When I asked to speak with the manager because I would otherwise need to cancel the order, the manager was hostile and dismissive, stating she would “tell the kitchen” but offered no guarantee they would actually follow the request. This would mean spending over $20 on food my fiancé may not even be able to eat due to an allergy, which is unacceptable. To make matters worse, a friend of mine had a similar experience the same morning. She placed an online order for curbside pickup because she is a single mother with a sleeping two-year-old in the car, but staff refused to bring the order out, forcing her to leave her child alone in a running vehicle. This is unsafe and irresponsible. If curbside pickup is not actually being honored, it should not be advertised. Overall, the recent service has been rude, dismissive, and very disappointing for a place we frequent so often.

I was there this past Monday and I’ve been sick since with food poisoning from the beans and I’m very disgusted. This happened to them 10 years ago and this is really bad.

Border Cafe always hits the spot. Conveniently located on Route One northbound in Saugus, Mass., it's always my top choice for its great atmosphere and delicious Mexican cuisine. With a huge selection and reasonable prices, there's truly something for everyone. But what sets them apart is their amazing staff, always friendly, hard working, attentive, and committed to making every visit memorable.
Border Cafe never disappoints and keeps me coming back for more every time.I Highly Recommend 😋

My first visit to this super restaurant......fun atmosphere and great menu. My Border Chopped Salad with Grilled Chicken was super delish...best part was the freshly made Ranch Dressing. Our server, Leslye, was outstanding with such an upbeat attitude. Made for a really good dining experience.
