        Overall
        Not authentic but tasty

        If you want "authentic" Mexican (whatever that may be), this is not the right cantina for you. However, if you just like spicy food, cold drinks, and nice wait staff, head to On the Border. The chips and salsa (always a vital element of any Mexican place) are great; the margaritas are HUGE, and the menu is varied, with dishes that range from slightly spicy to really roaring. I highly recommend the loaded carne tacos, as well as the buffalo chicken tacos (my very favorite).
