We had come here on a Friday evening at around 6:15 pm for dinner. I had always wanted to try this place, as I love Mexican food, and wanted to see how this place was. Upon entering this restaurant, we were kindly greeted by the server at the front. We were then brought to a table on the upper level near the window which was near the railing therefore, was a tad tight. The music was lively however, not too loud. As well, the décor was set just right for a Mexican restaurant, with many decorations relating to the Day Of The Dead, which is a Mexican holiday. For my meal, I had settled on the pork carnitas without any onion or cilantro, while my daughter had the french fries, and my mother had the beef picadillo. I found that the wraps for the pork carnitas weren't too fresh however, the pork was a good amount, and tasted well-prepared. I would have liked to have some sort of a sauce or topping to go with the pork carnitas however, I only had the side order of diced avocado which was given, along with some Mexican inspired rice. Overall, the food was good however, it wasn't as good as I would have hoped. The prices were a tad high for what we had gotten however, I do respect that this is a family-owned business, and prices are high at every restaurant these days. The service was definitely great, with the server coming to check in on us as we dined, and filling up our water jug from time-to-time. I may come back here to try another item, as the food is definitely authentic, and well-prepared. read more

A solid 3.5. It's a lovely family run restaurant. So we went in for an early dinner on a weekend and it was fairly busy more so with the take outs as it was still early for dinner. We ordered 2 mains and 1 kids meal. Our first main were the fish tacos, perfect 3 portions with decent chunks of fish battered lightly which is always great topped with this delicious slaw. I would definitely recommend this if you're visiting this restaurant. Our second was these chicken enchiladas with the red and green sauce. The taste was a7/10 I felt the tortillas got supper soggy within seconds and it was quite salty. I'm such a hard critic when it comes to Mexican food as there are none good ones in Toronto/GTA. Like in the US you actually get such good Mexican food in every corner. Lastly we got a kids meal-it's a small portion of what you pick and comes with drink. Overall the prices are ok the only thing is you you got to keep adding rice or beans or sides for an up charge which can make the overall entree price go up. Definitely not a cheap place. The service was good and server was attentive. Food came out in timely manner. Lots of street parking around the restaurant and behind it a lot too. There is a beautiful mural on the outside of the restaurant don't forget to take some photos if you would like :) read more

I really wasn't impressed by my visit here. Personally, I found the service dreadfully slow... we sat down at 7PM and didn't leave until 9PM. The appetizers took 45 minutes to arrive and the mains another 45 minutes. That said, the server was quite friendly, but wasn't as attentive due to the slow service. In terms of the food... I wasn't impressed. The tacos PALE in comparison to some of the places downtown. The nacho appetizer was okay; portions were a touch small for $18. It came with a super spicy red salsa and a semi spicy salsa verde. I got the al pastor tacos, and they were simply subpar. Barely any flavour and the portions were tiny. I was hungry even after I finished. I switched one taco with my cousin, exchanging an al pastor for her beef tongue, and I found hers slightly better. Again, there wasn't a strong flavour but it tasted meaty, unique, slightly refreshing. I think my other cousin's fish tacos were substantially larger - they looked tastier too! I don't think I'd come back to Border MX anytime soon, although they do have a quaint patio. The service is super slow and the food mediocre, in my opinion. read more

Wow, where do I even begin with this place? My friends and I arrived here around 3-4pm and were greeted by the staff. I noticed there were only two other customers and an employee behind my table eating their meal. We scanned the QR code and picked our meal. My friend picked this place because it stated Vegan options on google. To our surprise nothing really is vegan. Is vegetarian. No cutlery given until the last min when food was started to sluggishly come out of the kitchen. When we got our glasses one of them had lipstick stain on it still , and when we all were getting our meal 1 at a time (with 15-30min gap??) , the forks had lipstick stains on it... I'm not confident in how they clean their dishware. But my group and I kept trying to find something good??? Wait time? IT TOOK OVER 2H. It felt like the kitchen was cooking forever? It was not packed and it was not rush hour. I was at a Loss of words. So here is what we got: Chips and guac - 18.9+ over priced for 2 coronas and a bowl of fried tortilla chips with a small guac. It was very bland the guac. But that was the only thing that came ....in like 10min. Every other meal after in this list came 15-30min. Mine take even longer...while everyone else's meals came .... even my friend who order two things got them 10min apart but still before my order...??? Friend 1(Vegan dietary restriction): taco bowl with only re fried beans n no guacamole . It was a hot mess. It was 98% salad onions and drippy water dressing in a big flaky tortilla and if you dig so deep like 6ft deep you find 1 tsp of refried beans as a reward. A big wtf to all of us at the table?! My friend had to go up and ask for more refried beans. What kinda blows my mind..is you know your customer is vegan and to make the dining experience a bit better after what was served was disappointing...they could have..maybe cut up some avocado? Some tomatoes to make the bowl more ??? Filling? 0/5 Friend 2 (Also Vegan): order Cauliflower taco without sour cream. 1/5. He ate it like a champ cause there wasn't much else to do about it. It was just a cauliflower rolled in some very greasy deep fried dough on a very dry tortilla . Friend 3: ordered fish tacos (3 tacos you get per order)and beef tacos(you get 3 per order). On the menu it stated the best fish tacos in mississauga. Long story short. It was not. Soggy, bland , dry tortilla again. My friend didn't even touch the beef tacos after eating the fish tacos. Each order for the fish and beef came with really plain uncle ben like rice.... 0/5 Me: I ordered the Birria. Same really dry taco but the only thing that saved it was the very okay sauce. The beef was okay. Lacked seasoning but the dipping was alright. The cheese was nicely melted. You get 3 tacos and a small dipping. 1/5. Overall: I cannot believe how ridiculously long the wait was for 4 orders at a time where they had No other customers to really serve????? The cutlery was not cleaned. There was lipstick stains on one of our glasses and fork. VERY over priced beer and chips (2 Coronas and a bowl chips / small bowl of guac) Awful. We felt slightly sick as the experience, the dishware being questionable in cleaning, the wait time, the food taste being not great for the price and the lack of effort on the staff side.. just 0 should be given. I'm just glad I had my friends with me and were able to try to make the whole atmosphere a bit easier. Would never recommend and not ever going back. read more

Border MX Mexican Grill - Mexican Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

Location Super cute outdoor patio space! Free parking for customers at the back! Drinks We had a Jalapeño Margarita because that is something you don't usually see. It had jalapeño peppers blended into the margarita itself. Spicy and sweet - it was very nice! We also had the Tamarind drink which was not sweet or tangy enough for me. Food We ordered tortilla chips and salsa, bean taquitos and cauliflower tacos. All of the dishes were fine in terms of how they were cooked and their freshness. The problem was that the dishes were bland. We ordered both types of hot sauce to try amp things up, but it wasn't enough. The dishes were simply not seasoned properly. I am puzzled because this restaurant was highly rated by many others. Oh well! It was a busy Friday evening right so maybe that was a contributing factor. Visit again? We might visit again on a less busy night. read more

My husband and I decided to try this restaurant for a nice Mexican dinner. the restaurant is small and quaint. We were seated at a table and had to wait 20 minutes for the server to come and take our drink order and that was only because another patron told her we had been sitting there waiting. other patrons came in after us we're seated and got service before we did. When our drinks finally came my husband asked for a glass for his can of beer which was not even the beer he asked for. The server never came back with the glass and after 10minutes he went to the bar to get one himself. When we placed our food order we told the server to bring our appetizer first so we could relax and have that before our main. Needless to say, our main came and no appetizer. Not once did the server come back to see if we wanted another drink or to check how everything was. We decided to go to the cash to pay otherwise we would have been kept waiting again. The manager cashed us out. We explained everything to him and he said the server was young, only 19 and new. He credited us for the beer since it was not the beer we ordered and said we should have asked for the manager. We will not be going back. Very disappointing. There is a much better Mexican restaurant up the street. read more

Border MX Mexican Grill - Great food and drinks - Mexican Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

We tried Border MX when we couldn't get a seat at El Mariachi. We were seated as soon as we arrived. Service was great, drinks a little sweet the food was good, churros were delicious! Only critique, it would have been nice if the tacos were served with something on the side. Apparently Birra tacos are not considered tacos so they aren't served with any extras. We asked for a side of rice, it came in a tiny bowl maybe a 1/4 cup size and was charged $4.50. Left satisfied read more

The atmosphere of this place is so great, as soon as I walked in I felt like I was walking into my own little getaway to Mexico. The server was extremely friendly and welcoming as soon as we entered! I got a piña colada (which was delicious), and flautas. They were so crispy and the chicken inside was delicious as well. I added the guacamole to mine and it was a very nice compliment to the flautus so I suggest to indulge a little and get some because it was a very well made. The order came with refried beans on the side as well as some hot sauces if you want a little spice (my favourite one was the chipotle one). My boyfriend got the fish tacos and all he could talk about while eating them was how they were the best ones he has ever had! We also ordered the churros because we couldn't resist, and they were without a doubt the best churros I have ever tasted. They came with a caramel dip that was perfect to dip in, but they were honestly so good they were delicious even without the dip (and I love dipping). The washrooms were very clean as well as the restaurant in general. I will 100% be coming back here and now understand why my boyfriend has been saying it's one of his favourite places in the area. read more

Border MX Mexican Grill - Flautus with guacamole and refried beans. - Mexican Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

The restaurant is located in Streetsville with a few parking spots in the back. Otherwise you would have to find street parking. Our server was very friendly and sat us at a table by the window. The restaurant is small with a few tables. The menu had a variety of different Mexican dishes to chose from. We didn't have to wait too long for our food to come out. The fish tacos I ordered were deep fried with batter. They were topped with coleslaw which made the fish warmish and a bit greasy. But as you know with most fried foods it was tasty. The refined beans and rice was a very very small portion. Like a quarter cup of each. I guess I was expecting more. Overall we enjoyed our meals even though the portions were very small. The flan for dessert was nice and creamy. I would totally recommend this place for a group or date night. read more

Overall great food and ppl who have great service they catered a birthday party at bronte Creek provincial park the food was excellent

This place is a really nice, homely place to get some cheap Mexican grub. The place itself is funny to look at, there's some Christmas lights in one corner, some green plants in another, table/chairs colours don't really match anything. The feel of the place is casual. Service was normal, everyone was friendly and food came out not too fast but still in moderate time. I got a vegetarian burrito, which was good hit to the stomach after a long day. I can't say anything otherwise. It wasn't the best thing I've had, but not the worst. It is better and a lot more healthier than the burritos one would get at a chain restaurant. The cheese corn was also a good starter meal, it only comes in 3 however, so not best shared in large groups. read more

Border MX is located on the east side of Queen Street between Old Pine and Church street which is between Britannia and Eglinton in Streetsville. Oh this place has been a Mexican restaurant for quite a while. Before it was Border MX it used to be La Cantina years ago. The inside doesn't look like it's changed much from the old days and there's a small patio with about 8 tables or so outside. There's a parking lot directly behind the restaurant which also sort of spills out to another parking lot that connects to the back street (Church) as well as having limited street parking. Since I remember coming to La Cantina years ago I was surprised and rather delighted that it was now Border MX. My first experience with Border MX was at their former Hurontario and Dundas location which is no longer but on the bright side, Streetsville is not all that far to go. It was my dinner for my friend's birthday which was last month so we had some catching up to do and she always leaves it up to me to pick the places to eat. My previous experience with Border MX was the other location though so I assumed that the food would be the same as the one at that location. The menu was the same and the staff as well. I remember being served by Jorge and he also remembered me. We decided to sit outside as it was still early and not that chilly. After having a good look at the menu we had pretty much decided what we'd want from drinks to dinner and we knew we were going to leave some room for the churros as well. My wife and friend split a liter of red sangria. I had asked for a mojito but the other server came back and said they didn't have any. I guess that means they were missing something that makes it up so I just ended up getting a beer. For starters we decided to go with the chips and guacamole as well as the corn. The corn was perfect because it came in 3 servings and there were 3 of us. The corn is one corn on the cob broken into 3 with seasoning and queso fresco. The chips are not regular chips. They are actual fried corn tortilla, crunchy and salted. The guacamole is ok but doesn't stand out as great. For the mains my wife ordered the Taco Norteno, my friend ordered a mix of tacos and I had asked for a chorizo chimichanga along with an order of fish tacos we could share. I had a chance to try the Taco Norteno from my wife and wow was it ever good. It was a large crispy fried tortilla made with chicken and beans and it came with a side of soup. The chorizo chimichanga was packed with meat and it was so tasty. The tortilla although fried, wasn't as crunchy as the Taco Norteno probably because it was so thick? Either way it was very savory and such a great flavor. The fish tacos were also crunchy as the pieces were battered crispy with the added crunch texture of the fresh veggies. The dishes come with a small side of rice and refried beans. For hot sauce they offer a spicier one and a green, milder one. The churros are really good and since they're made to order, there's a bit of a wait but they come hot out of the fryer and are the perfect complement to a nice dinner. Between seating, waiting to order and waiting for drinks and food it seems that the place was a bit busy. We did have to wait a while for drinks and even the appetizers. It seemed for the place there were only 2 servers and there were more people sitting outside than inside. There was a bit of a wait for everything it seemed and I suppose it just had to do with being busy. Besides the wait the service is more than friendly. Jorge is a kind and friendly host. I really enjoy the food at Border MX. It is one of the better places to get Mexican in the GTA that I can think of really. I like the fact that they make their own chips, hot sauce, and have things that are not your everyday type of Mexican but a wider variety of dishes. This time around the wait seemed a bit longer than expected but overall the service is good. read more

3.5 stars... love the owners and staff here. They're great and easily 4 stars. I think it's great they want to share the food of their homeland. I love meeting restaurant owners who have a passion for their food of their home country and want to share it with Toronto. There's something about these people that make believe in the goodness of food and the act of wanting to nourish someone else. The owners here come from Mexico and it was interesting hear him talk about the menu. The menu reads like any normal Tex Mex but the recipes are not. He explained how the recipes reflect a different region of Mexico because when you're away from home, the thing you miss the most (aside from family) is the food. The restaurant is in the heart of Streetsville and in it's own tiny building with a patio! I wasn't expecting the patio.. though it's fully enclosed from the street and between buildings. The spot is clean but has a very very rustic feel to it. It reminds me of an old tavern from the 80s and never left that decade. Lots of dark woods ... terra cotta colours... texture popcorn ceiling and walls. You get the idea. The windows to bring in a lot of light though... so it's not a dark spot. I do have to call out the mural outside... quite beautiful and unusual for Mississauga. Frida Kahlo looks great. The menu has your typical apps of chips and guacamole, burritos, tacos, and a few special mains. We wanted more of a mix of tacos but their menu is structure in a way you can only mix and match tacos from half the menu only. Oh well. We chose the reigning Mississauga favourite taco, fish taco (3 of them), and a mix of 3 tacos (veggie, chorizo, and carnitas). One take away before I get into the food... I think their dish washer might be broken. In two of the utencils we were given, we found dried food. Yuck. Obviously if they spot it ... i would think they would rewash but just be careful of what you're using. Though some tacos are better than others, I do want to mention that they single wrap and that's a bit of an issue. Also, they do provide a choice of 2 sides (rice or bean soup). They're quite small but I guess they just add enough to fill you up more. Veggie Taco - This was chopped up vegetables of carrots, peppers, zucchini, and corn and topped with shredded lettuce. I would say this needs the hot sauce to bring up the flavour. It was quite mild. Though I think it would have been fine served fresh... I think this interior was pre-made and attempted to reheat before serving. It was mostly lukewarm with some vegetables being moderately hot. 3/5 Chorizo Taco - Quite soft and unfortunately I think this and the Carnitas tacos was made ahead of the freshly made Fish Taco. So these sat on the single corn shell... it was a mess to eat as the taco shell instantly dissolved. Similar to the veggie taco, the filling must have been premade and attempted to reheat... it at least cooked too quickly. It was just warm. This also needed the hot sauce to perk up the flavour. 3/5 Carnitas Taco - tender and juicy is great ... but when sitting on a single taco shell, it's bad news. We couldn't even lift this off the plate. It feel apart immediately and was not possible to even salvage the shell. This one was tender but mild in flavour. We used up the last bit of the hot sauce on it. 3/5 Fish Taco - freshly made, these arrived crispy and hot to the table. Crust was light and not too thick in the fish. Fish wasn't dried out. The toppings were bland so it really needed the hot sauce to bring it to life. We did like the fact it's fresh. 3.5/5 Churros - these were great because we had a history lesson come with it. They're pink for a reason ... it's from Strawberries and it's a tradition from specially Mexico City. Outside the churches, men would sell tons of these lightly pink churros as a snack. These were crispy and super hot ... just nicely coated with enough cinnamon sugar to keep licking your fingers. 4/5 I think this spot is one of the better options in Streetsville for food. They family that runs is just great. The food could be a bit more flavourful and served hot. I wish them much success! read more

My husband, my daughter and I got to know this restaurant during the COVID-19 quarantine when we started ordering their take-out. We went to their patio this evening for dinner.

There was so much food with the Volcan that we had to take some home. I also loved the presentation of the food. read more

My friend and I came during lunch on a summer Wednesday and the place wasn't too busy so we got seated on the small patio outside, which is just an outdoor space in an alley between buildings. Both of us got tacos, and while they were slightly overpriced, the flavors were incredibly zesty! We also ended up getting churros which were expensive but the portions were huge! The environment was pretty dead while we were there, but I can definitely see the place being busy at night, especially for happy hour! read more

Definitely BETTER than the Hurontario location - at least in service and overall cleanliness! They did a nice job of painting the exterior, including the mural, but the interior remains the same as when Cantina Mexicana was there. Eventually, it could use some sprucing up on the interior OR at least newer tables and chairs. We ordered Baja Fish Tacos & a Chicken Tinga Wet Burrito. Not sure if they just have regular burritos. My Fish Tacos were really good - 4-4.5/5. I tasted a bit of the Chicken Tinga and my dining partner said that he'd prefer Burrito Boyz/Chipotle in taste/price. The sides are VERY small, like a wee tea cup of rice and a spoonful of refried beans. So although it's adequate in portion, in comparison to other Mexican places, Border MX scrimps on the sides. I tasted both the Mexican & Cilantro rice and I didn't care for them. They both lacked in flavour, especially the Cilantro rice. I only had a coupla forks of the rice, really below average. Refried beans were good tho! Overall, decent place, certainly not cheap (esp with their small sides), but they need to fix their rice recipe - that's for sure! As per another review, I would have to agree that they would benefit from a Lunch Menu. I would *love* the tacos...sans sides and pay a coupla dollars less. :) read more

My husband and I went to Border MX this past weekend and we loved it! Not only do they serve all halal meat (except the pork of course), they were extremely friendly and the place was cute and traditional in decoration. We ordered the Volcan (basically fajita's) and it was enough for 2 people. The order came out hot and the tortilla's were made to perfection. Not to mention that their guacamole was also delicious. We ended our meal with churro's which was paired with a caramel sauce and absolute perfection. The only downfall was that chips and salsa were $7.99 and sometimes this is 'free' at most restaurants. I also found that the salsa was more like pico de gallo BUT regardless we enjoyed it and would definitely come back for more! YAY for halal mexican food! read more

We were starving and looking for a quick bite to eat in Streetsville and found Border MX through Yelp. Perfect cuisine choice on Cinco de Mayo! We sat outside on their little patio and enjoyed a couple of cervazas in the sun while waiting for our food. Have to agree with the other reviewers - service is very very relaxed and it did take quite a while for our food to arrive. Just something to consider if you try to visit while in a hurry. We each ordered a wet burrito for our meals - I selected veggie while bae went with the pork carnitas. I chose rice and salad for my sides and bae went with their bean/bacon soup and rice. Food was delicious and super satisfying. I do wish my burrito was a bit spicier but I guess that's why they offer hot sauces/salsas on the side. Would return again if in the area. read more

I enjoyed the meal I had. Tacos Norteño. Stuffing is shredded chicken with mashed red beans. Tortilla was a bit too thick. Drizzled with sour cream and ground beef.

Great authentic Mexican restaurant in charming Streetsville. Went there with a group for a birthday outing. My 2nd visit. Food is delicious, with fresh ingredients and true Mexican menu. Everyone's meals were cooked well and very tasty. Call outs were the Fish Tacos (awarded best in Mississauga) and the combo platter with the skirt steak (I forget the name). Mexican corn is a must too. The one negative is the service. The staff and owners are super friendly and engaging but the waitresses were young and inexperienced and our drink refills were non existent, the food too too long to get to us and we literally had to corner the waitress to pay our bill.

Had been coming to this restaurant for a few years. Came on July 24 for dinner with the family. Not sure how the kitchen is working back there but first, all our meals were cold. Secondly, three out of the four of us got food poisoning. One of the individuals is pregnant. We ordered a few chorizo tacos, chicken tinga tacos, pork, and quesadilla.

Let me start by saying very slow service. We were a party of 11. We waited more than 30 minutes to get dirty glasses for the water. And it wasn't even that busy. Food was average this is not the best Mexican food in Mississauga ( that is not a true statement as claimed by the restaurant ) as a foodie we love Mexican food but this one really tasted bad. Surprisingly Margaritas were Hit. Main server is a very rude gentleman. He can't take the criticism well.He gave us one bill without even asking us if we would like to pay together . Then we as a group did all the calculations for him to split the bill as he simply ignores our request . After helping him with the calculations he still couldn't split the food fairly or correctly that was ordered among the group.And when asked the server he was extremely unprofessional And said " What do you want me to do charge somebody else" Will not recommend this place or come back especially with a big group. I don't think they can handle it. There are other better restaurants than this. I wish I had an option to them Rate 0 they don't even deserve rating of 1. Some one mentioned on Google Review the possibility of getting fake reviews I support that theory. read more

This restaurant has some pros but many cons. Let's start with the cons. When we entered they seated us and only gave us one menu (for a group of six). We then ordered our drinks for my father to receive an already opened and drank beer. The server responded that she just opened it when it was almost done. One of our party proceeded to order a red wine. It was cheap boxed wine. We had to send it back. Once our food was finally received, most of the party's food was cold. After refusing dessert, the waiter asked, "Should I bring the cheque? Are you ready to leave?" We had just finished eating. They then began to fight with us over the already included tip. Service was terrible. There were some pros, like the food was great. Mine was pretty good and filling. Super juicy chicken and good portion sizes. All of us enjoyed the meal. The location was great right in downtown Streetsville. I gave the rating 2 stars because the food was a 4 and the service was a 1. Overall, I would probably not return. read more

I want to be kind to independent restaurants because I know how they have struggled during the pandemic. But our meal here was awful. I actually question whether this is authentic Mexican food because it was just so flavourless. The salsa Fresca was nothing more than a bowl of chopped tomatoes and onion. Chips and guacamole was $12, which is about $10 more than it was worth, and the red wine sangria tasted like koolaid with a small handful of finely diced apples tossed on top. We have eaten at this restaurant several times over the years, and while it's never been to best it's always been reliably authentic. I'm not sure what happened, but we won't be coming back. read more
