I too like authentic Mexican, although I usually hit the East side of town or Mexico for that. Border seemed like a great option for the westside because of it's location and variety of fair. I do like their ceviche, especially when it's a good fish choice. I don't like when they use swordfish. The peppered avocado garnish is nice and the marinade is more authentic to Mexico than alot of the Mom and Pop type places I've been to, which tend to taste more like shrimp cocktail with too much sweet tomato juice sauce than ceviche. The idea is that various appetizers and such can easily be shared because they are served in smaller portions as opposed to large combo plates. And this restaurant can accomodate a larger group better than a taco hut.
