On The Border Longview Reviews
Great location 👌 staff are always on point. Been a regular for so long they know my order when I come in lol.
Our server was absolutely wonderful! Food was fantastic, carne asada was cooked perfectly. I highly recommend On the Border!
Brayden was an absolute star with his service very polite a sweet. When we come back will be requesting his service.
We had not been here in years, tried it out and we're not disappointed. The guacamole appetizer and shrimp and veggie fajitas were really good. Chops and salsa were good, as expected. The service was great. Will need to return more often.
It was pretty nice. Our waitress was a little bit too serious for what it was but she tried to get the point and she did bring the food out. It was good and hot. Drinks were great. Really nice time.
Ms. Abbie was a wonderful server, and the food was so delicious I had the Birria tacos!! Food got to our tables and the restaurant is very open and welcoming!
Enjoyed the food and how lively it was, our waitress was really sweet and friendly and so very attentive to our needs. Stayed longer than I should have but left full and happy. Place had nearly no empty seats but thankful for the first time experience for this location
On the Border is one of my all-time favorites. Love the chips, hot sauce, and yellow queso. My favorite meal is the Fajita Salad with Lime vinaigrette dressing. We often get the fajita family meal to go. Comes with all the sides and fajita fixings. Managers are friendly and check on the customers to make sure they are getting good service and food.
Zoe is great she is always on point and has great suggestions if you’re not sure what to pick makes sure your cups stay filled and food is on time next time you visit ask for her you will not be disappointed
Very good prices… Friendly staff, and atmosphere. Will definitely be back… May have found my new favorite spot.
Awesome place to grab lunch or dinner we shared a margarita flight, I had a steak and chicken protein bowl and my husband had steak fajita salad.
My daughter and I had a great meal and a wonderful time. I generally like my salsa a little more spicy, but my daughter loved it, plus after a happy hour beer or two, it was amazing. 😁 Be sure to ask about the happy hour $5 items. Well worth the visit.
Food was good. Service was good. Chips and salsa were on point. The Street Corn was the best I've had at a chain type restaurant. The happy hour queso and guacamole was delicious. BUT! Parts of the restaurant waa grimy. The bar chairs need a good scrubbing, especially with rhe flu epidemic. The front door, as we were leaving, was so dirty that I gasped. Good food is a nice thing, but without an aggressive manager that demands an eatery that's this now to be scrubbed down and cleaned...cast a shadow over the good eats.
Some of the best salads I've had and their chips were crispy and delicious. The Birra tacos were out of this world. Very impressed. Service was amazing.

A nice solid 4 restaurant to eat at. Brooke was there quickly for order, refills, and quick checks. The food (Papi, Big Burrito, Chicken Fajitas) had adequate taste for Texmex. The portions and price were almost a good match. It is a good place to stop by when you're looking for Texmex. Cheers

Was excited for our fajitas to go and added a side of “premium” queso for $3.29. Opened up the bag and found a “thimble” of queso sufficient for 5 chips.
My wife's food was sitting in the window waiting on mine the waiter said they were waiting for my shrimp to defrost! I had him bring out her food then ten minutes later my food finally arrived not a good experience!
Service is slow. Tortillas are handmade. Bar area is very crowded. chips and salsa are very good. The live guacamole is the best. They used to have good enchiladas but the food doesn't taste fresh …
The food was great and large portion at a reasonable price. I had to wait forever for someone to come and seat me. They were acting as if they didn’t see me. I felt like leaving because I felt so h…

It was not at all busy maybe five other tables sitting in the restaurant one or a group of four arrived and we waited almost 10 minutes before anybody came up with our table. In the meantime there were seven employees standing around the entrance to the kitchen area talking. I was not at all impressed, and the food was just average
Came for dinner and have been here a few times. Will not be back any time soon. My wife ordered tacos, paid to upgrade to steak. 3 tiny strips in one and 3.5 in the other.....where's the beef???? Asked the waiter if this was the upgrade we paid for....manager visits the table and says he will check into it. Manager returns and says they put 2oz weighed out in each one. So??? Did they weigh it before they cooked it and all the water shrunk the meat, just curious? Needless to say my wife reordered as I told her she didn't pay to eat tortillas and onions. They must have weighed out the chicken I. The enchiladas as well, because there was 2 inches of meat in a 5 inch enchilada. The waiter was great, thanks Collin! You lost a customer today!!!!
There were alot of issues food wise, that I will explain here in this review but before that I will say the service and atmosphere were fine if not great but the time between the appetizer and food was like not even a minute. The appetizer needs to be out quickly not at almost the same exact time as the food. That's the point of an appetizer. The food it's self for 27$ was too small, the "ultimate fajitas" were two small dishes, adequate for a child. Overall I would say this is a place that one would go to if they're looking for a type of not really Mexican but almost Mexican food that isn't the best for its value. The consensus of my group on the food was it wasn't the best on flavor and was okay. They had a flauta split into 4 little pieces for the entree that was also around 12$.
Over cooked rice. No cheese in my enchiladas service was bad. Sever didn't check on us much. Didn't get refills when needed
We love On the border in Tyler so we decided to try the one in Longview. It was AWFUL! We waited almost 10 minutes for a server to come to our table to get our drink order. We ordered the Queso and…

This place is terrible now. My son and i went in to have dinner. Ended up costing us 100 dollars, for a kids meal, and 2 shrimp tacos. Server was great but the cost isnt worth what they are serving. I get a bill for 68 dollars when they ran may card. I looked on my back account and they charged us 99 dollars. Will not be back. We used to enjoy this place.
