Border Cafe

The tremendous appeal of nachos blanketed in cheese, Cajun-inspired fried foods, and sizzling platters of fajitas is evidenced by the undergraduate mobs that pack BORDER CAFE’s Cambridge location. This is border food as viewed from the American side of the border, featuring Tex-Mex standards such as steaming bowls of chili, chicken quesadillas, and guacamole-topped burgers. Somehow, no conversation about the Border fails to mention their margaritas, which customers seem to pour down with the abandon of folks who recently staggered in from the Sonoran Desert.
