Javi's Modesto Mexican Restaurant

My first review of 2025 ! Goes to the fantastic food and service here ! Cheese enchilada with onion and al pastor with mole sauce with excellent refried beans. Amber with vodka on the side. This is the best Mexican cuisine here in Modesto!See you here for a great experience!

1st time into Javi's ! Lots of great drink options from their bar . We noticed a 55 and over menu . We decided to try the 2 items w/ rice and beans . We both choose A Crunchy Taco and and cheese enchilada. Very good and spicy salsa :) we also ordered a Mojito and a Bloody Mary . Nice meal for a good price . Service was attentive, nice open windows all around .

We were in town and my stepson and gf recommended we come here. The service was good and there was plenty of parking but the restaurant was pretty busy. We were here over the Christmas holiday. I was surprised how busy they were considering the mediocre food. The chips did not taste fresh and the red salsa was ok. I had their special but can't remember the name, it came with a very thinly cut piece of steak very disappointing. My husband had the fajitas and they did come out sizzling, he liked the flavor. We both had a bloody marys and they seemed watered down. The bathrooms were clean and there was plenty of room to sit. You choose where you want to sit. I wanted to like this place. Our server was very nice but won't be coming back.

Amazing! Recommended by a friend and it was so worth it! Decent prices on drinks! Ala carte food was good! Small portions but delicious! Definitely recommend to anyone wanting good food and good drinks!

We came across Javi's on our way back to the East Bay and were impressed by the quality service, food and attentiveness of the staff (thank you Marina!). The restaurant is self- seating only, so we were able to select a nice booth location by the window. We were given chips, salsa, coleslaw and refried beans and cheese to start as we looked over our menus.I had the enchilada supreme (note, verde sauce is lime forward) with cheese only, my fiance ordered a burrito supreme with carnitas (came with a healthy portion of carnitas), my brother ordered a combination burrito and roja enchilada platter, and my mom was able to customize her a la carte order with a veggie burrito and guac (she asked for fajita veggies in the burrrito which wasn't originally on the menu).We also enjoyed a nice cerveza with the meal, along with a mocktail for my mom and an imported Coca Cola for my brother. Would highly recommend for a nice, filling meal in Modesto!

What's a guy got to do to find great Mexican food? Well, he should make the drive from Pleasanton to Modesto and hit up Javi's. I was visiting friends in the area and they took me to Javi's for dinner. I ordered a taco plate with rice and beans. It was so good that I devoured it all. Javi's is also a popular place to watch a sports game. They have TV screens setup in the bar area. I'll be back again the next time I'm in Modesto.

Javi's was great. You seat yourself and served promptly. The food came out quickly (pork enchiladas) and was great. Our server was friendly and helpful with the questions we had about the menu. Check it out - you won't regret it!

We went to another restaurant but the wait was about 30-40. My mom knew about this place so I called ahead and was told there was no wait. When we arrived, we were seated right away. We were given salsa and chips while we waited. The waitress was friendly and it was overall really good service. Our food came quick and it was hot but it was so good! Prices are decent. So much food on the menu that you'll have to go again!

Their service is excellent. They allow my friend and I to visit for long periods of time, and always suggest items for us to try or share with no judgment. Thank you Javi's :)
