Was John D at Javi's a mag?
My second visit to Javi's was fantastic! I travel all over the continent and authentic Mexican cuisine is one of my favorite types of food. This dining experience was outstanding; the homemade guacamole was incredible, and Amanda's Special Fajitas (No. 4) was absolutely delicious. Pair that with a Dos Equis Amber served in a chilled mug, and you'll leave with a big smile on your face. The owner, Javi, is friendly and... View all feedback.
What Alex Alvarado dislikes about Javi's:
I was not very pleased with my second order from this restaurant. When I got home and opened the food, the guacamole was unpleasant and dark brown. I drove back to show them, and one of the employees said that it was normal, which was not true. The manager did not even apologize or offer to exchange it for a fresh one. The portion of meat was also very small. I will not be returning to this restaurant. The parking lo... View all feedback.

Won’t let me share photos, but we got double order of fajitas mixed shrimp,chicken, and steak. I asked for sour cream and guacamole on the side. There was barely any food!!! A little over a spoon of rice in both containers not even a tablespoon of beans! My 4 year old ate all the rice herself in both containers!!! One container with meat enough for one person! I wish I could share photos! So disappointed and didn’t even get the sides of guacamole!
I have not found better authentic tacos anywhere else! The pork was marinated in a delicious sauce that enhanced the rich flavor of the tacos.

Love the service and atmosphere. Javi and his staff made a great meal, great experience and great price. I pass by his restaurant often and never went in. Well that will now change. Thank you for a great meal and service, can't wait to come back.
I would definitely recommend this place! The waitress was quick to respond as soon as we were seated, and the chips were fresh. My fiancé, who’s from El Paso, TX, was really impressed with everything. The hot sauce was a bit too spicy for me, but it was tasty enough that I was willing to endure the heat. If you're not accustomed to a lot of spice, you can request them to tone it down or to skip the hot sauce altogether, which is a good idea!
The family (who was not working) met at Javi's Mexican restaurant to celebrate with our newest 19 yr old Momma's birthday. What a great place to eat, laugh, socialize with not only our family but Javi's family as well.
The only Mexican food I enjoy is here. It's delicious, quick, and the service is friendly.
I had a wonderful dinner at this restaurant after deciding to try it, given our love for Mexican food, and we were not disappointed. The Texas dip appetizer was amazing. The Camerones Al Mojo De Ajo was outstanding, clearly prepared with great care (they called it garlic, but it was really packed with flavor). I had a different expectation for Andrea's Place, but I was thrilled with how they executed it—I couldn't have been happier. The prices are a bit on the higher side, but isn't that the case everywhere these days? It was definitely worth every penny. The staff was very friendly, and the atmosphere was incredibly welcoming.

A fantastic dining spot with a vibrant atmosphere and delicious food. The ambiance is enhanced by the lovely people around.
Eating was amazing. great service. If you like Mexican food, you have to try.
I’m a vendor that delivers beer to the restaurant and today my partner and I stayed and ate and the food and service was amazing. The owner of the restaurant is always super friendly, and the staff is nice too. Our server kept our glasses full and the torta and taco I had were delicious. We definitely plan on eating there again after making deliveries. I’d recommend this place to anyone and everyone.
Fast take-out, Good prices, Good food with some added authenticity for the taste buds that’s a little different than other Mexican restaurants in the area
This is an excellent restaurant! Authentic Mexican cuisine can be difficult to find, but anyone near Dickson should definitely give this place a try. Whether you're in the mood for classic tacos and burritos or something more daring, Javi's (NaN's) will not let you down. The service was outstanding as well. I'm from out of town and ended up visiting this place twice in one week. I will certainly return the next time I'm in the area.
