On The Border on NW Expressway Shuts Its Cantina Doors

9:46 AM EST on February 28, 2025

Another grave has been added to the chain restaurant cemetery along NW Expressway.

Yesterday afternoon, while stuck at a red light, I noticed that the On The Border location at Hefner Parkway and NW Expressway has closed, joining the likes of T.G.I. Friday’s, Red Lobster, and countless others (Applebee’s, Golden Corral, etc.) as yet another mediocre chain to bite the dust along this busy Northwest OKC thoroughfare.

I’m not exactly sure when the restaurant closed—unlike when a shitty Tex-Mex chain in Bricktown shuts down, the local media has been oddly silent—but the last Yelp! review was posted on February 16th.
