Overall, the food was delicious. However, the price point has significantly increased in the last month, and I don't think I would have eaten there if I didn't have a resort credit.

We made reservations several days in advance and still were seated in the bar area in a very high traffic area. Our waitress was slow and the bar service made it worse. Our served switched to another one shortly after we got our first round of drinks without notice. Our new server was a little more attentive, but not much. Typically I find service in the bar of restaurants is substandard, and this was the case at Javier's. The food and drinks were good as always but the service diminished the overall experience.

Got two menus, one with much higher prices for everything ( e.g. $50 for shrimp enchiladas in one menu and $40 in others - we were party of 4). Tomatilla auctions us good but sour, which I happen to like but others don't. Beans and rice don't come with enchiladas now, but will for free only if you proactively ask! Rice is not very good, meaning plain white with no seasoning. Value is so so at best, even taking into account Vegas pricing

Food was fabulous. Each of us loved our meal. Skirt steak arachara was flavorful and cooked to perfection. Fideo Del Mar was seafood filled and fantastic. And my friend raved about the lobster enchiladas. Desserts of flan and sweet corn cake were also great.

Javier's always rocks! My favorite restaurant at the Aria by far! It's always my first and last meal whenever I visit! Staff is amazing and the food is second to none! Bartenders are the best around! They always remember me and treat me right ?

Javier's has become waytoo expensive for Mexican food. An order of gauacamole, one chicken quesadilla, and one margarita, came to $70 with tip! The noise level prevents conversation. Although the food was fine, the value is low.

We ate here during a family trip with my sister and brother-in-law and my son and daughter-in-law. We love this place and try to eat here every time we are 8n Las Vegas. Reservations were at 5:30 due to a show we had at 8. There were 6 of us and we were seated at their round tables which are hard to get in and out of, but there aren't many others options. We had the pollo asada and the enchiladas poblanos and enchilada and taco duo. Everything was amazing! Their refried beans are the best I've ever eaten anywhere! We also ordered 2 rounds of Javier's margarita, yummy! Everything was fantastic!

We've been to Javier's twice and have really enjoyed their food and drinks a lot! It's a busy place so reservations are definitely recommended. It's a bit pricey but worth it for great service and excellent food.

We love this restaurant and think the food is pretty great. Cost is higher than most Mexican restaurants. We paid $450 for 1 appetizer, 1 guacamole, 3 meals, 3 desserts and 6 drinks.

Very, very loud atmosphere with a long table for 2 made conversation nearly impossible. Flatware was taken away and table cleared after the appetizer salad. The waiter apologized for the misunderstanding. We said “no thanks” to more chips, but more (cold) chips were brought to us anyway. Overall, a very loud, confusing experience but Angel our waiter was gracious and apologetic about the mishaps. Can't say it's worth the hype, but the mole poblano was tasty.
Food was great...a heads up though it is spicy...I had the trio of seafood enchiladas which was pretty mild but my wife ordered something lit her up... margaritas were ok at best...service was excellent and very quick

It was ok.. i like the Irvine and century city locations better . The food and drinks in Vegas didn't seem as good and it was more expensive.. it was my first time at this one...

All foods are very bad with 50% increased price. Just makes me feel unhappy. I come here to enjoy chips but they are using chips from the Costco. Also seafoods were not fresh. And check was a double, only beer and service were consistence. Mostly, I will not coming back, very disappointed.
I've been dining here a couple times a year since they opened. Prices have gotten expensive. They seated us and we started to eat chips, drink our drinks and order, food. The hostess came by and said they sat us at the wrong seat and we had to move to a smaller table. Food is still good but will probably skip next time.

OMG, everything exceeded expectations! We loved the ambiance and the food was excellent. Service was wonderful. We cannot wait to return and highly recommend this restaurant. The kitchen has the mastering of Mexican food to the highest level. Wow, what a great experience!
