Javier's Gourmet Mexicano

Plano , Texas

5 reviews

If the food were as appealing as the ambiance then I could understand the ridiculous prices. I had the Mole Poblano. The sauce was not well balanced, one piece of my chicken was pink in the middle, and the rice was undercooked. The green salsa with chips you get when you sit down was the best thing about my meal, but definitely not worth the 18.95 I paid for it. The drinks are also overpriced. This place seems like its purpose is less of a Mexican "gourmet" restaurant and more of just another place to go see and be seen in Dallas. Not worth the hype at all. You would be better off taking the ten minute detour and diverting to Ojeda's off Maple if you are looking for great Mexican food.

Take what others say with a grain of salt, you have to experience this place for yourself. Everytime we go there the food is outstanding, service impecable, and the ambiance out of this world. I am confident in saying this is a top ten Dallas dining establishment. Please check it out. NOT OVERPRICED!!

Hmmm....honestly...I've had better mexican before. Never heard of any mexican food being "gourmet"...but ok. Another commercial wanna-be. Go look for a small out of the way mexican place for some real gourmet.

Maybe we are the ONLY people in Dallas who feel this way, but we honestly thought Javier's was overrated, and we were disappointed by the service and the food. We had a gift certificate; maybe that is why we weren't treated promptly or graciously, not sure what went wrong with our experience there.

This is absolutely the best kept secret in Dallas. Once you've been there, you'll hold Javier's in high regard forever. Much less pretentious than some of the other big name steakhouses in Dallas. So what if the owner drives a Ferrari! He's there every night making sure you're treated like you drive a Ferrari(whether you do or not). Order the Filete Cantinflas. You'll be glad you did! Enjoy!

I would say that this is one of the top restaurants in Dallas. The food quality is excellent. Service is sometimes slow, and at other times the waiter is standing at your table all night. There is often a wait, and reservations are a must for the Thur. - Sun. meals. Don't plan to eat here for a holliday meal unless planned and reserved well in advance. The owner personally oversees the operation, and if you have an issue or problem, it is fixed immediately. While the owner's Ferrari parked out front might be a sign that you will be paying more than a meal at Taco Bell, I can promise you that the house specialty dishes are worth the trip, wait, and money. Enjoy.

Not too shaby! <br> Recomend: Margaritas for all. Classic Fajitas They will come with enugh extras to fill you up. Not just enugh for one tortilla. Flan. This is one of the better ones I have eaten in Dallas. <br> Best of all the Mayor has not killed all the good smoking houses yet.
