    Went in December and it was so nicely decorated for the holidays, food was great except for the gnocchi which was undercooked and doughy but they recooked it for us (lamb chops were 10/10), had holiday drinks (ornamentini was so good), service was great and so friendly, overall 4.5 stars! (0.5 marked off for the gnocchi)

You can tell the staff works together to provide the best experience for the customers. A highly recommended restaurant.

    Food here at Javier’s is unmatched, hands down the best high end Mexican restaurant. Atmosphere is great with DJ music and excellent service. On of our favorite restaurants, but more on expensive side (think high end steakhouse pricing)
