Javelina Reviews
A relaxed and reasonably friendly place. Lots of GenZers, and they sometimes have those built-in-microphone voices (don't hate me, it's true). Food pretty blah -- beans the texture of pureed baby food, Mexican rice tasteless, salad managed to be sweet (not in a good way). No salt or pepper or hot sauce. Drinks were ok -- different types of margaritas, not great. Staff friendly but overall not impressive. Probably won't return.
A Tex-Mex haven in Manhattan, Javelina hit the spot for a recent Saturday afternoon happy hour. We enjoyed margaritas and real deal queso (as good as any I had back home) with a side of fresh flour tortillas, at their cozy bar. The service was a healthy dose of Texas hospitality, with our friendly bartender giving us samples of special marg creations, like strawberry and avocado-cilantro. A perfect, no-frills spot for any Texan lost in New York.

good food, excellent service BUT how can a bar not have a television that has sports.....craziest thing i have ever seen....some recored Art show being shown while the knicks are playing in the playoffs.....and no remote to change the channel....talk about tone deaf as multiple patrons ask the bartender, and several walked out...plenty of other good Mexican restaurants nearby
