- DDianeVIPSan Diego •14 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoManager Lisa was the best, most service-oriented manager I have ever seen. She kicked in when service was a bit slow, checked in on us every so often, comped us a drink when we waited a bit too long for our order, and just made a slow evening into a spectacular one. A great manager. Well done Lisa!More infoRED O Taste of Mexico - La JollaPrice: Expensive• Contemporary Mexican• La Jolla•4.4
- AAlexVIPSan Diego •21 reviews5.0Dined on Dec 17, 2024Food here at Javier’s is unmatched, hands down the best high end Mexican restaurant. Atmosphere is great with DJ music and excellent service. On of our favorite restaurants, but more on expensive side (think high end steakhouse pricing)More infoJavier's - La JollaPrice: Moderate• Mexican• La Jolla•4.6
