Tried to eat here in July 2016. The chips are fried in the same fryer with wheat foods. The server and whoever he spoke with were very confused about what is and what is not safe for celiac customers. I want to like On The Border but they haven't earned it yet. Instead try Matts Rancho Martinez just on the south side of the turnpike (190). Matts is very celiac friendly.
No
We ate at the one in Garland, TX and they do have a dedicated fryer for the chips and they are one of the best ones I've had at a restaurant. Very thin and crispy.
Yes
Gf menu with choices, but chips not in dedicated fryer.
Had fajitas. They were very good and the had a dedicated menu for celiac. Wait staff was knowledgeable. We brought our own chips for the salsa, which is pretty standard everywhere these days as the frier is shared.
— Yes, the establishment is dedicated gluten-free
— Excellent
I ate the chips with no reaction and they had many options on the gluten-free menu but I did see that they had a combo on the normal menu. I got the pick 2 flautas with double rice. The chicken tortilla soup is also good without the tortillas.

Had a really great experience here. They had a gluten free menu avaliable and assured me that everything would be prepared safely. Got the shrimp tacos and they were delicious.

My two kiddos are celiac and very sensitive but we had no reactions here. The waitress and manager reassured us the chips are actually in a dedicated fryer away from the cooking line. We had a gluten free menu but our waitress did reiterate multiple times there is risk of cross contamination but they take it serious in the kitchen and try their best to avoid it. A different server brought out the meals prior to the other food to avoid any mix Ups and reduce cross contamination. We know this is always a possibility when we go out to eat, but we were thrilled with our meals and service. My gf kids had the adult rice bowl with steak and chicken tacos with black beans and rice.

This used to be a restaurant frequently visited. No more. They’ve changed something with their chips, and I’ve gotten sick the last two visits. Also, their food and service has gone downhill. If you’re looking for a Tex-Mex in this area, try Rio Grande. Almost everything can be made GF. And I’ve never gotten sick.
— Not at all
— No gluten-free information on the menu
— Not Much/None
