    Great service from Mike and excellent, conscientious attention to our son's food allergy needs! Mike was friendly, efficient and great at making recommendations. We loved the fresh, vibrant salsas, guac and their chips (which were better than what we've had at most Mexican restaurants). I LOVED every bite of the seafood molcajete and would definitely order it again on a return visit. Everyone else enjoyed their entree selections. It's unfortunate that the taco and enchilada plates are served "a la carte" and are not accompanied by any side dishes (which makes them a pricey meal for a serving of 3 with nothing else). We shared two of the vegetable sides, the brussels sprouts (which were quite tasty) and the cauliflower (which were served a bit too al dente with a bland sauce and cubes of mealy tomatoes). We finished with the coconut flan for dessert which had a lovely texture and very subtle (almost "too subtle") coconut flavor. Border Grill is a great choice for fresh, well-prepared Mexican cuisine on the strip (especially for those with food allergies or dietary restrictions).
