About this data
Nutrition figures on this page are the values recorded for On The Border in the 2022 edition of MenuStat, a public archive of chain-restaurant nutrition disclosures, as compiled in the Cindar restaurant database; the restaurant may have revised them since.
Data version 2026.05.1+ms2022-r5+official-1627oyq+c1+s3, retrieved October 23, 2026. Recipes, portion sizes and regional menus change; the restaurant's own current publication controls where the two differ. Figures are provided for general information and are not medical or dietary advice.
On The Border and related marks are trademarks of their respective owners. Cindar and Hestia Studios are not affiliated with, sponsored by or endorsed by On The Border; the name appears here only to identify the restaurant these figures describe.
