Unfortunately this location has NOTHING going for them! Poor service and Management! The food wasn't any better and even though it is the same owner it is NOT the same chef! I take my reviews seriously, with honesty and integrity with hopes that other people DO NOT have the same experience! I've been going to Javier's since Mr. Sosa had... More

Thought the best view of Irvine was in my rear view mirror, however, Javier's will get me back for sure. Just returned from 1 month of travelling and I'd say this restaurant stands out as the top restaurant of the trip. (Strong competition: Roka, London; Yauatcha, London, Ulus 29, Istanbul) Granted I love Mexican food, but even if Mexican food... More

I really like this place. I have never had a bad experience. Are server was very friendly. I like the atmosphere and the food was really good. I like the salsa. It has a great flavor. My shrimp tacos were excellent. I will be back.

We visited Javier's at Irvine Spectrum while in the area for a meeting. The location is large, has good atmosphere/vibe to it, service was very good, but the food was just OK? Maybe I ordered the wrong thing, it was kind of dry and not very much flavor? I was expecting it to be better. The pricing was'nt that bad.... More

Only go there for happy hour as it's close to my office. Usually crowded but there's a valet stand almost in front of it so parking is not a problem. Appetizers are great and lots of people to meet.

Great loud raucus atmosphere, with solid food but comes with a premium. A high end mexican restaurant with a very cool vibe

This is a very nice high end restaurant near the Spectum movie theaters. Large area of outdoor (covered) seating in confortable surroundings. An excellent menu of authentic Mexican cusine with excellent service. You can relax, emjoy great food and brush up on your Spanish

Good food, nice atmosphere in the Newport Beach Coast location... Like their salsa and chips, big time.

I loved Javiers when it was in the heart of Laguna beach, and had a two hour wait. Now the food is double the price, and the margaritas are almost $20. I paid $50 for lunch with one drink.
