Finally they're open! Been waiting for months for the Border Grill gals to return to Santa Monica, and WOW did they deliver! Fantastic and stylish new space on 20th and Santa Monica. Open and airy, but overly loud. The menu is awash with fresh fresh fresh selections. Imma vegetarians and my husband is a meat/seater, and everything was customizable for us. Vegan Chorizo that isn't pasty? Yes! Finally!
Terrific service and friendly staff...
We ordered the Breakfast burrito and Market Vegetable Chilaquiles. Delicious both of them, with perfectly cooked eggs and seasoned vegetables in the chilaquiles with a bright and tangy red sauce, and nice details like crispy thin potatoes in the burrito. The burrito plate came with a unique and delicious thinly-sliced fruit selection - pineapple, blood orange, jicama, with a dash of paprika - so fresh and such a nice change from a traditional 'green salad'.
Our watermelon/cantaloupe agua-fresca balanced out the well-seasoned and spiced savory dishes.
Mary Sue and Susan know how to do it, and we are so thrilled to have them back here. We can't wait to come back, and to try dinner and that lovely bar is begging to be indulged in. 5/5! read more
