Border MX Mexican Grill - Tacos -Bar -Tequila

PREDATORY PRICING! CHECK YOUR RECEIPT AND MATCH IT WITH THE MENU!

The drink we got was $6.50 on the digital menu. We were charged $10.99. The soup was $13.50 on the physical menu. We were charged $19.

The waitress promptly corrected the mistake when I caught that the soup was $6 more. She apologized and corrected that.

I paid the bill, but later caught that we were charged $4 more for the drink. No refund was offered. Just an apology and a promise that they’ll correct the menu to reflect the right charge. $10.99 for a non-alcoholic drink is crazy though.

My friend thought he got COVID because the food was so distasteful, he thought his taste buds were broken initially.

It pains me to leave this review especially because this seems like a small business and it was pretty empty when we were there, but never have I in Canada been charged more than what was displayed on the menu. I will personally never return to this establishment.

Edit: this restaurant is definitely engaging in predatory pricing practices. Even after responding to my review, they did not update their drink menu from $6.50 to $10.99 that they charged me for. They must be really struggling if they’re up charging their juice by $4.49. Like damn, business must be really bad.

Service was amazing. They were very patient with our dog. Food was amazing and vibe was great. Definitely will be back

Food was good but they forgot about our tamarind drink until after the food came.

Additionally we were charged an extra $9 for salsa when the menu said $5 (see attached photos)

We brought it up to the server and she just denied and said it's $9 cause it's additional...

Restaurant had potential but we weren't served properly especially when it wasn't busy...

I apologize in advance because this restaurant needs to make some major improvements in the kitchen. I hope you take this as constructive criticism as I don’t typically leave a review unless the experience is inferior/superior. We ordered this for the first time. Got the elote, birria, chicken tacos and churros. The consome had zero flavour. The birria meat was stale, dry, corn tortilla was soggy without any flavour at all. The chicken tacos were oily but the toppings were decent. The churros are really hard and stale. Honestly it tasted bland, over cooked, stale and as if it was leftovers rewarmed up from a few days ago. I hope you find this helpful and consider seasoning your food and making it fresh. Oh and for those who want to try a real authentic birria in sauga, go to vamos por tacos for real authentic Mexican street food.

Came here with a friend and we both ordered the chicken tacos, absolutely worth it. Super juicy, packed with flavour, and honestly gone in seconds. We got there right after they opened so there was no wait (pro tip!), and the service was super friendly without being overbearing. The whole vibe was chill and welcoming. Safe to say this place is officially on my “go back ASAP” list.

Great Mexican food and lovely service. Madison was awesome!

Amazing food, great service, and beautiful patio. We got 3 chicken tacos and chips and guac. the chips were the perfect soft crunch and super warm, and the guac was very flavourful. definitely debated ordering another bowl of guac because it was that good. the tacos were also delicious, i would recommend getting guac as an add on. for drinks we got the long island ice tea and the mango daquiri which came rimmed with tajin adding the perfect tang to the sweet drink. we were originally planning to go to a different mexican restaurant a two minute walk down the street but the wait for seating was 30-40 minutes. so glad that we found this hidden gem because it was a 10/10 experience. will definitely be coming back for more 😊

side note: there is parking in the back

Delicious food, it remembers me of Mexico it’s the most similar food I have ever tried. The atmosphere is so good, very comfortable

Tasteless food, chicken tacos were refried and tasted too bad. Very basic food, not worth the price at all.

Came here for the first time with my husband and young son. This place exceeded our expectations, from the moment you walk in you’re greeted and sat immediately. My son was offered a game at the table for while we wait and had great options in the kids menu. The service alone and knowledge of the menu and authentic food they serve is by far the best I’ve seen in southern Ontario. The wait time for your food is very minimal, which I was very surprised about because the quality of this food was top tier. The meat practically melts in your mouth, and every bite is more flavourful than the last. I’ll be recommending this restaurant to all of my friends and family.

I'd say the quality of the food here is very good compared to other local Mexican restraunts. The service and drink selections were fantastic. I believe this place is under rated. Only thing I'd suggest is better lighting. It's a little bright no matter which table. Staff was fun and friendly and made excellent recommendations for food and drinks.

Had a great experience overall. We went here for a birthday celebration and our entire group loved it. The food was fantastic and the service was great. It’s definitely a bit on the pricey side but everything that we had was very tasty. Would recommend the street corn, the fish tacos and the chimichanga cheesecake.

Our server Isabella was very friendly and patient. She answered all our questions and made some great recommendations for the table. Would definitely recommend this restaurant for a night out.
