May 22, 2016I usually bring my own chips to On the Border but didn't have any this time. We asked the waiter if the chips were fried in a dedicated frier or if they were in the same oil as other things. He said they have two separate lines at this location, with the chips being fried by themselves in the back line. He confirmed with the manager that they were gluten free. I ate a few and waited a few minutes (usually I get a headache pretty quick if there is a problem). I didn't have a reaction. Really nice to not have to worry about bringing my own chips! Note: I am gluten intolerant, not celiac, so still might not be safe for some people.

December 04, 2012this is for on the border in general. they do no have a clue when it comes to cross contamination. 3 visits and 3 times getting sick. I wanted to give zero stars but it required something.

I'm giving 4 out of 5 since the chips are fried in a common fryer. If you can say no to the chips, the food is really good, prices are reasonable, and the staff (that I've encountered) have been very accommodating. We have been to this location a lot (prob, once a month for years), and have had parties catered by them. All of our family experiences here have been fantastic.

We ate here one time and I had stressed the need for gluten free. The waitress began by telling me the chips were gluten free (which I knew was not correct because they're fried in the same oil with gluten containing foods). Then she brought out flour tortillas for my food.... And tried to tell me that the rest of the food was fine and they didn't need to remake it. At which point I insisted they did remake it since the tortillas had been on the plate. Overall they were not knowledgeable of gluten free or celiac. I would not eat here.

Small menu and items were fried in the same oil as items containing gluten. Potential for cross contamination is great.

I went for lunch and the chef's wife has Celiac. My meal was so fresh and completely GF!! Corn tortillas were microwaved on a clean plate, gloves changed, clean utensils used and fresh sides not contaminated with gluten utensils or hands. Best part was no eye rolls or exaggerated exhalations when I said I needed gluten precautions.

The staff was super helpful and gave me the gluten free menu. Although it stinks that the chips aren't, I had the fajitas with corn tortillas and no itching after or nausea!

Though the gf menu is a sheet of paper in a plastic cover, the gf selections are varied. The server was so helpful, even with my additional food sensitivities, and took extra care with my order. The food was good. Thanks, On The Border!

Not at all impressed with this place. When I was unintentionally glutened by the chips (not GF!), the waitress was completely unapologetic. Even after that, she didn't offer a GF menu and told me that most of their menu is not gluten free due to cross contamination. So, cool. I won't be eating there again.

I had no issues when i went to OTB. They were very understanding and helpful. They also provided a Gluten Free menu. I was able to enjoy Chicken Fajitas with all the veggies i wanted.

idk who took over OTB, but I don't recommend eating there. it is definitely not gluten free. And even for those who can eat gluten, the food is bland. My suggestion, starve. It's much more pleasant than eating here

ask for the manager. very helpful and CD friendly. onions on fajitas are cooked in soy which is why they remove on the GF menu. they will accommodate and make certain things in a separate pan. grill used by all.

We went in aware we couldn't eat the chips. The waitress said she actually thought they had changed the chips and asked management who agreed they were fine. 20 mins later after we ate the chips someone was sent to let us know the chips had gluten in them. My kids were sick the next day. Don't trust the staff. Trust what you researched before arriving.

My daughter got very sick after eating here. The waitress didn't know what Celiacs was and even though they offer a gluten free menu the cross contamination is bad.

Absolutely wonderful experience. It was our first time ever at an On the Border, we received great service! The manager came out and spoke with us and went over my list of intolerances and made a dish perfect for me!

The menu/list really sucks. It's got a heading then a list of food. Everything is separated by a comma and not even listed properly so it was very confusing. Most foods weren't really for celiacs but good for those whose bodies can tolerate a little gluten. I'm GF but because of an ingredient that is removed when gluten is removed, so I could eat a lot on their menu.

Had dinner at On the Border last night. Was not to impressed with the gluten free menu. But as I was browsing the main menu, I asked our waiter about the Border Smart Chicken Fajita. He went back and got some answers for me. It came with onions, bell peppers and chicken. My concern was the corn tortillas. He also found out that the corn tortillas were made of only corn and lime. But did state that on the bag they came out of a manufacture company that does work with wheat. I went ahead and ordered the dish. Oh my that was so good and I had no issues with it at all. It also came with a side of black beans with nothing added to them, not even a thickening substance. So thumbs👍 to On the Border. I will be coming back for sure.

My daughter became violently ill after ordering off the gf menu. Of course there was a warning of cross contamination since it is not a dedicated celiac friendly kitchen. However this is the 1st time, ever that we have gone anywhere and had a problem after we let them know she has severe food allergies. I would use extreme caution before eating here.

I didn't get sick but the food was not very good and service was slow. I would eat here again if I had to. If you want "Mexican" food you are better off at the nearby Chipotle as the food tastes much better.

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.

This is a restaurant that I have been to at least once on each of my trips to Atlanta over the past several years, when I visited my mother. I've not had any issues from my meals eaten there on any of these occasions. Their GF menu does warn against cross contamination, but I've yet had any issues. The GF menu doesn't appear to be updated with the New items that appear on their menu and it is a bit difficult to understand what you are looking at (as far as category on the menu). There are some good options. I've had the Queso Chicken Grill with cilantro rice and vegies. I'd enjoy more of the Queso sauce on the chicken and I think the flavors might be enhanced with some lime wedges. My BID disappointment is that the chips are NOT GF, so while others get to enjoy munching on them as we wait for our meal, I have to sit there and pass up one of the things I've always enjoyed about having Mexican food before learning I had Celiac. That's one reason for just three stars...they make no effort to provide any chips that we GF'ers need, and they don't have, or didn't offer, any other sauces that might be added to the food to enhance flavors. I'm not a big fan of cilantro, but the serving portion of the cilantro rice was meager at best, regardless of it being on a GF plate or not. This isn't one of my first choices when I'm in Atlanta, but it has been a safe choice so far.

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.
