Javier's Restaurant - Newport Beach

It is BEAUTIFUL. VERY TOP NOTCH.. FOOD WAS GOOD RESTAURANT IS LOVELY. I DIDN'T LIKE HOW THEY SAID IT WAS A 2HR WAIT THEN IT TURNED INTO 2 1/2 HRS WAIT N IT WAS SO SO CROWDED. IT WAS A BIT OVERWHELMING GETTING ACROSS THE PLACE. NEEDS TO BE MORE ORGANIZED. BUT OVER ALL IT WAS GOOD SERVICE WAS AWESOME. I WOULD GO BACK WHEN LESS BUSY

Very fancy venue, beautiful patio setting. Food and drinks are delicious. However, the staff was amazing! From the valet service, cocktail waitress to our servers, wow. Great job guys. The staff makes this place.

I live in Florida, I have my father in law in Cali, we had passed this place before and I was looking forward to visit. He and my husband had visited in the past. The restaurant itself is stunning the decor, the ambience, the different rooms, the hospitality and over all the location. We were early and we were free to choose where to sit, it was hard to determine who was our server, they were all helpful to turn the heat or do that for us, but ... Asians restaurants have a way to let people know how spicy food is, this menu should do the same, not plan B for a simple salsa that was so spicy. The server who took our order had clearly a no for anything... not in a bad way, it seemed nothing could be accommodated. Sliced tomatoes instead of black beans seemed like a profound task. My scallops were supposed to be served over a bed of spinach... that was just a thin blanket, potatoes were hard, probably not cooked...it wasnt worth the money and the time, and over all the celebration, yes, since we had so many faces nobody had the chance or intention to engage with us in a conversation or anything, and we were there early. I wouldn't pay for this Mexican food and restaurant experience again... not worth it

Worth a visit. Nice place, nice people, nice location. Food fantastic. You can eat outside and feel like you were by the beach. Nice look and feel overall even if inside too dark.
