Great Food & Staff.
This is one of the best restaurants in Dallas especially for couples. The food is and atmosphere are awesome. Our waiter was great his name was Noe. If you get a chance to go you should defenitely ask for him./P

A New Favorite Place for Mexican
When I first moved to Dallas a few months ago, I was surprised to find that people had a hard time recommending a good Mexican restaurant. Most recommendations turned out to be little more than your runofthemill texmex. I found solace in the taco stands, but had trouble finding a good, sitdown, real Mexican place. But then I found Javier's. This place is great! True Mexican dishes prepared with integrity and celebration for the cuisine. Everything I tried here (filete Azteca (steak), codorniz (quail), guacamole, and margaritas) was perfect. Sharp, dried chili tastes combined with ornamental spices and sometimes rounded out with fruitiness over veggies or fallingoffthebone tender meats made every mouthful a subject for rewarding contemplation./P

CHARMING ROMANTIC AMBIANCE, GREAT FOOD
I was taken here on a first date and was swept off my feet. The atmosphere is old world and romantic. The margaritas delicious and the service was impeccable. My date ordered Filet Cantinflas and I ordered the Snapper with garlic and lemon sauce. Both entrees were delicious. The hot sauce served at the table was excellent as well. The best part of the evening however was venturing back to the Cigar bar for an after dinner drink./P

Discrimination
We had some friends who were recently discriminated against because they are gay. Considering that this is the Knox Henderson area which has always been extremely gay friendly, I find this sort of behavior by management deplorable. A packed bar and our friends spent a total of $400 on a couple rounds of drinks for themselves and 14 friends while waiting to be seated. They were asked to leave when one person sat on the his partners leg while he was sitting down because there was no room to sit. Keep in mind that they were sitting by the restrooms and almost completely out of the view of the rest of the restaurant. There was no inappropriate behavior. They were told that their behavior would not be tolerated and they were asked to leave. When they tried to pass out the valet tickets to their guest and tell them that they were being forced to leave, this was looked upon as being aggressive so an off duty police officer was called to escort them out. /P

Conflicted
I was looking forward to the experience of dining at Javier's to celebrate a momentous occassion in my life. We made reservations but when we called the hostess stated if we came earlier then they would prioritize us and seat us soon as possible, most likely in about 30 mins after we arrived. We did arrive about 1 1/2 hrs earlier and checked in with the hostess. Others also arrived after us without reservations and were seated within 30 mins, before us. We waited for about 1 hr until we were finally seated. We weren't greeted by anyone, like other patrons. One of the staff (maybe manager/owner) greeted a couple next to us and made small talk, asked if they wanted anything to drink; and he completely ignored us. We weren't dressed differently or act differently than other patrons. But we were different because are people of color and young. We were the only people of color there except for the staff. I dislike acknowledging racial discrimination as an issue because I wish it did not exist, but that is not reality. Our waiter was attentive, professional, but not overbearing. The food was delicious. The decor did have the old world charm. But being treated differently in a negative manner left a bad taste in my mouth.../P

Very impressive high end Mexican
I had wanted to go for years. It was very impressive, not only was the atmopshere great, but the good was excellent as well. I was at a John McCain meeting, which the Senator or his people chose here as the location. Good choice, and have been trying to go back. Had a steak with some kind of cheese, and it was awesome./P

Tight quarters, Great Cigar Lounge
I had the opportunity to have gathering at Javier's on a Friday night. I have heard of Javier's for a number of years so by the time I got there, a palace would have been "just average". I was very impressive to drive up and see ultra highend sports cars, but I have to say that the dinning experience when gradually down from there. My party of 15 and I were seated in the back of one of the many dinning rooms. The service was very short and quick to get us out of the chair. The table was with in a foot of other tables which made being excused from the table an act of congress. It seemed the table enjoyed the food but it was nothing that the reviews gave it. I have to say that the cigar lounge was the high light of the night! I am sure Javier's is a wonderful place for small dining parties or after work cocktails, but unless you can get a private room, it is no place for a large group setting./P

Hype, no substance?
Hmmm...I don't mind high prices for quality food and drink, but we didn't get those things here. The $9 margarita was nothing special. I love mole poblano and ordered it. It was overly sweet and tasted of flour...ugh. One of my colleagues ordered the cantinflas. The steak arrived undercooked and was sent back. The second audition presented her with a piece of cheap meat that they seemed to hope was disguised by the sauce. All in all, we were underwhelmed. We did like dipping the chips in butter and then warm salsa. Too bad the overly priced food can't even measure up to the ubiquitous chips and salsa. I have had interior Mexico cuisine far better than this for much less.BR /

I Can't Explain
This place always is rated high, butnever fails to disappoint us. Not bad, just nothing to recommend at the level of its fans and price. Many other places in Dallas far superior in terms of food and service. I think this place is an example of "the Emperor has no clothes."/P

Excellent Food, wonderful service!
I have always felt welcome and that everyone was glad I was there for dinner. The best night was the one that my husband proposed to me. The wait staff did everything they could to make the evening as special as possible... it seemed like they knew when to be near and when to leave us alone. Their joy at having us there during this special event was almost as great as ours. We live approximately 700 miles from our beloved Dallas now, but whenever we come back to visit, we always visit Javier's./P
