The small plates all you can eat brunch is fantastic. The breakfast enchilada is my favorite and is a must try. Also, try the Diablo salsa, it's nice and hot.

The ribeye steak was excellent. The rest of the meal was average at best. The floor of the restaurant had not been swept all day. With the amount of empty tables, you could have spread the parties out so I wasn’t in the table next to me.

The food was fabulous. The only reason I gave 3 stars for service was because it was kind of slow. But it was not due to lack of effort by our server. They only had one bartender who also was waiting some tables as well. Probably difficult to get enough help these days. We will definitely be back next time we're in Vegas.

Very disappointed with my dinner at Border Grill. The service was terrible. My daughter and I were seated right away. A different server brought us water and chips. Our server did not show up for over 15 minutes. I watched as people who were seated 10 minutes after us being taken care of, before us by our server. My daughter ordered a glass of lemonade ade. My daughter got her drink after our dinners had arrived. Sever blamed it on a busy bartender. People all around us were all getting drinks. Again many had been seated after us. We had asked for separate checks which she did not do . My daughter had to get up from the table and locate her to get that straightened out. Food was ok but certainly not worth the price we paid. I had not been to Border Grill in a few year. I will think twice before I make reservations there again.

I appreciate the inclusion of a couple vegan options on the menu. Chips and salsas were yummy. Too many items on the menu are spicy. I would love to see a mild option. That being said the menu offers many unusual and unique dishes to try. I was disappointed to be seated in the noisy first level. I was hoping with an Open Table reservation we get a better table.
