    Have been your establishment probably over 40 times over the last several years. This time the service lacked the normal attention that I’ve become accustomed to being a patron in there. We ordered an appetizer. When the appetizer arrived, we asked for more chips for our table of four and more salsa. It didn’t come. A bit time later the main course arrived and I asked again for more chips and more salsa.. It didn’t come again. As we were finishing up our meal and asking for a box to go, I asked for a third time and it finally arrived after the third request. But it was a day late and dime short.

    Great food and service. When going there, one should expect to not be in a rush and enjoy the food as it comes. Great atmosphere.

    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)
