Border Grill ~ Los Angeles, CA & Las Vegas, NV


Drop everything and run for the border, The Border Grill that is. This Mexican inspired food is fresh and delicious!  As soon as you get seated you are served a basket of crisp chips and a selection of very authentic salsas.  This grill has swag, not to mention a mission of sustainability and can make many dishes sans meat and a few sans dairy.  If you’re vegan and still not convinced, just ask your server if they have any other dishes that can be prepared vegan and then get ready to sit back and listen to her spew of a variety of mouth watering options. I’m not kidding, you won’t believe your ears. Three of the vegetarians in my party ordered off the menu. I could have ordered off the menu but opted for one of their vegan specialty dishes, Portobello mushroom and greens layered with roasted red peppers and black bean puree, served with a fire roasted tomato sauce and a side of red, white, and green rice. You gotta try it, and just for kicks pair your meal with their signature blood orange margarita (alcoholic) or a white peach-ade (non-alcoholic). I swear the food melted in my mouth. We ate at their Las Vegas restaurant located in the Mandalay Bay hotel but there are several other Southern California locations as well.  Oh, and your omnivore friends will love it too….Enjoy!
