Robyn Harman

Authentic Mexico City cuisine with a fun vibe. Their margaritas won't disappoint, and they have a cigar bar if you're into that! Only place I've seen that serves butter with their chips and salsa . :)

Meredith Warren

True Mexico City gourmet Mexican food . This place has been around for years and it's no surprise why. The entire menu is delicious, but it would be a mistake not to order the Filete Cantinflas .

Amanda Anderson

The Escalope Cordon Azul (stuffed veal ) is to die for. Ask for Eddie #2 (since there's 2 Eddies)...he's absolutely amazing and has been serving my family and I since 2003.

Robyn Harman

Try the margaritas . And if you're into cigars , ask about their selection. There's also a flaming drink that's pretty cool to see - and tasty too.

Dallas Observer

Since 1977 Javier's has been a Mexican classic in Dallas, one that sneers at Tex-Mex in favor of sophisticated Mexico City cuisine . Read more

Jim Benitez

One of the best places for traditional Mexican cuisine , top shelf margaritas etc. also I very pleasant sizable cigar bar

Elisa

Order the special cheese-stuffed filet and make sure you get the after dinner drink they set on fire!! Tres Leches was good as well

MacKenzie Cowan

I could not rave enough about the Filete Cantinflas , the smoked chicken nachos or salsa Verde . It is to die for!!!

Roberto Bruder Aguiar

Authentic Mexican food . Excellent options. You won't go wrong with anything.

BigDFoodTrucks

The Filete Cantinflas , Smoked chicken nachos & Mexican Martini are a must! And be sure to have a pre/post dinner drink in the handsome cigar bar .

Sam Licker

Incredible. Cadillac margarita + cheese panela + filet cantinflas and you’re set!

Marty Erwin

Long wait but well worth it for the mole chicken

The Feast

Though 30 years old, Javier's is still ridicuously popular among Park Cities ' elite. Recipes come straight from Mexico City , and are best washed down with a Mexican Martini . Read more

Good food, great selection, just the right atmosphere; perfect!

Dan Backhaus

Great food, attentive service , nice upscale ambiance. Amazing tequila selection !

Morgano Pendragon

You have to..HAVE TO..try Victor's rocks/salt margarita..#holyhashtagBatman..so yummy!!

Esther Montoya

Disappointed: the filete Cantinflas is a thin piece of steak with lots of cheese . The corn and flour tortillas were store bought and tasteless. Food taste was plain/ordinary for a 29.00 entree.

Emily L.

The smell of cigar smoke is the best. Also get the chicken nachos .

Lynne

Filet Azteca, margaritas and must have a Cafe Pierre!

Mary Alessio

Such a treat! Good food, good service and good atmosphere...

Amanda Bromwich

Check out the cigar room if you're early, or just for a drink

Spencer Mahoney

Julio is the best! If you have him take care of him! He will make sure you have the best experience.

Jason Treu

Get the Sangrita shot, hidden gem . Order tequila and it is an extra drink that accompanies it. You will like it guaranteed or I'll buy you a margarita !

Jose

Have two top shelf margaritas . One is not enough and three is too many. Shovel it all in by the pound!

Preston K

Filete Cantinflas - One of the best Mexican entrées of all time

Aaron Schwen
