Really good atmosphere, lovely greeting from the hostess and our server was fab. We had the brunch. Food taste wise was great, the only reason I have not given 5 stars is because most of the dishes were just warm instead of being hot.

Food was good. Brunch is good value. Noise level too high. A wait of 15-20 minutes before server took my order was a little too long.

I made the reservation weeks in advance. I put in weeks ago, I made a request via OpenTable to be seated by the railing outdoors. When we arrived there, there was a table available by the railing, however we were not seated by the railing. A white family was seated at the table that I requested earlier, they did not have a reservation and never ate at Border Grill before. Also, we requested champagne bottles and the server did not even bother opening the bottles for us. However, she opened the bottles for the neighboring tables who were white.

we were hosting a large group. All of our items were barely lukewarm. the margaritas were like fancy Kool-Aid. the ceviche was like tuna poke, not ceviche so loud we could barely visit we have been here several times over the years. It has really gotten downhill. We will not return.

Took a very long time to receive food. Our server tried to bring us check before we had even received our food. Food was much better the day before. I had the same dish two days in a row because it was so delicious on Monday. Super disappointed with the chicken on the nachos yesterday.
