    We brought some friends from out of town and the place is spectacular! Drinks and food were great. Service was efficient but without personality and connection. We had a great time. Thank you

    Food is great. Waiter was great. The hostess are not very friendly and not just this time, it happened on other occasions that we dined at Javier's. We had a reservation and had to wait outside for 15 minutes in the cold. We were given no options like the Bar. We were just told move to the left and stand there and wait.

    This restaurant is way overpriced. We set up a birthday dinner or seated close to the front door so you felt like you never really were welcomed into a restaurant. The service was very good. They are a hard-working team. The food was pretty good but had questionable results. Specifically, I ordered the scallops, but not all of them were cooked fully. for what I ate, it was delicious, but the rest of the scallops my husband tried, and it was disgustingly undercooked. The side of corn was delicious and my husband‘s chicken mole had great flavor, but the onion and garlic stayed with him for two days. I ordered their primo margarita and it was 100% tequila which many people would like, but I had to order a side of mixer and juice to be able to drink it. We would try it again if it wasn’t so damn expensive.
