If this restaurant was in my home state of Texas, I would probably only rate it three stars, but for the sake of its being a welcome beacon of Tex Mex light in Cambridge, I give it four stars. In addition to solid Tex Mex fare, the Border Cafe also offers a range of Cajun food. The enchiladas are satisfying, and if you're in the mood for a Cajun flare, go for the crawfish and shrimp ones. Margaritas here are good, the tortiall chips never run out, and the decor reminds me of my favorite places back home. The bustling atmosphere is noisy but full of energy and makes this one of my favorite places around for some good Tex Mex comfort food.
