Another Top Chef Masters win for me! I've been looking forward to dining at Mary Sue Milliken and Susan Feniger's upscale Mexican restaurant for years. It's conveniently located within the Caesar's Forum Shops, on the lower level by the spiral escalators.
Our visit to Border Grill was fabulous! The service, food, drinks, and ambiance were great. Our server, Luis, gave great recommendations, checked on us frequently, and was very friendly and personable.
We went during lunch, so I opted for the lighter route-- Tijuana Kale Caesar and the Border Classics (green corn tamales, plantain empanadas, and quinoa fritters) so I could try an assortment of their classic Mexican dishes. SOOO good! The kale caesar had the most amazingly addicting cotija croutons and the plantain empanadas were a nice combination of savory and sweet. I left happy, full, and ready for an afternoon nap!
