In Los Angeles, Border Grill of Santa Monica is one of my favorite restaurants so I was excited to try the Border Grill of Las Vegas during my visit in August 2001.
The food is similarly enjoyable although there are some differences to the eclectic Latin menu. Drinks are just as festive and delicious. Food is delicious, however the atmosphere is totaly different and I think it colored our overall impression of the Vegas outlet.
The level on which you enter is small and disjointed. Most diners will eat down one level. We sat outdoors cooling off from the August swelter with their misting stations.
Again, the food was good, but the atmosphere was off. It just felt too secluded, too cut off. The LA restaurant is so much more fun.
