Javier's Restaurant - Newport Beach

"My husband said we had to visit Javiers becasue it was "the best Mexican food I've ever had. Period.". So we went...and he was right! The shrimp ceviche was just ok, didn't have a ton of flavor, but the mains and even the salsas were amazing. He had the carnitas, which were amazing. I had the steak fajitas. They came out mixed together in a bowl, which is not how I usually see fajitas served, but I absolutely could not believe the flavor. The steak was so tender I could cut it with a knife! And the mixture of the tomato with the onions (green and white) with the pablanos was incredible. Even the guacamole was creamy and delicious and so fresh it actually started turning brown! Definitely go here if you like mexican food!"

"Seated right away, atmosphere was picture perfect! Food was amazing, had a filet that was like butter! Pat Sajak was at the table next to us, which was cool. Lastly, our waiter stopped us on the way out saying we over tipped, that gratuity was already included in the bill and didn't want us to pay more than we should. That's awesome!"

"I really enjoyed Javier’s! The food was great and the drinks were also amazing. The service I give a four stars because the hostess seemed to be overwhelmed and forgot to seat us, our reservation was at 7:00 and we didn’t get seated until 7:30. However, the amazing service from our waiter and the food coming fast and being delicious made up for that rough start."

"At least two visits. That’s the number of times I’ve had consistent food/service and overall, a great experiences. First time was in Vegas (Aria). Ordered the “La Tablita” steak for two. Got the same thing this time and it was just as good if not better (we were soberish this time). Got a pepino margarita from the bar (it was nice and stiff) but the Old Fashion was one of the best, if your in to adult beverages. Ordered churros for dessert (freshly made and delicious)but we probably didn’t fully appreciated them as we were stuffed. Keep it going Javier!!!"

"We visited from Texas and this food lived up to (and exceeded) all our expectations for Mexican cuisine! Delicious margaritas too! Beautiful restaurant and view. It was very busy so I would recommend reservations"
