Javelina Cantina

We were in Tucson for Arizona Bowl 2024 and stayed at the DoubleTree. Came down for dinner at Javelina & was greeted by their friendly staff. We made it in time for Happy Hour.My son order the Steak Fettucini Alfredo. It was creamy and delicious. The steak medallions were well seasoned and complemented the pasta well.I ordered the Chicken Nachos. It was a large serving that I shared with our table mates. The guacamole was delicious with it.Our server was super helpful with his recommendations. My son, who has Autism, enjoyed interacting with our server who laughed at my son's jokes while heartedly.

Staff is very friendly and efficient. Drinks were tasty and meal was good. It's like a sports bar with TVs all around. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Will we be back? Yes we will be!

Our new favorite local place. We are now regulars. The food is great, the drinks are fun, and the beer menu is plentiful. Cannot wait until summer when we can sit outside but the indoor area is very inviting. We love this place!

The food is amazing! The Salad is fresh with fresh produce. I had the Cobb salad and customized it a bit to my liking. I also got the sausage vodka pasta and it was delicious. The service and the chef was accommodating to my request. Highly recommend! 10 out of 10!

Stopped in for a quick drink with a friend after an event at the Doubletree. Quick being the key word here. It was anything BUT quick. Our server's attitude was lackluster and gave off the impression of being overworked but the bar was not full. Took a good 10 minutes to get our very simple beverage order. By the time we were about finished with our drinks **and we milked those drinks considerably** our "Javecado" arrived - chips and housemade guacamole. Took another ten minutes for the order of "Scorpion Hot" jumbo wings to arrive - all were ordered at the same time as our drink order.The guacamole was excellent. Full of big, creamy avocado chunks, seasoned perfectly and displayed in a tortilla bowl. Me gusta. As for those scorpion hot wings, I can get more heat out of my cinnamon flavored chap stick.

Let's just start by saying the wait staff is very friendly and wants to do a great job. As someone who waited tables for 8 years, they clearly lack leadership, training and support. Our drinks took 20 minutes, the margaritas were terrible. The food is meh-except the guacamole. The nachos clearly died in the window 20 minutes before being brought to the table-I think the chef thought they were an appetizer. Taco John's has better tacos. They need someone to answer phones, take room service/to go orders, bus tables. I know corporate America likes to manage their margins by cutting labor but the service suffers, not because of the people, because there aren't enough of them. They also need sections assigned to them. If you want to grab a drink, go to the bar inside the hotel lobby, they know how to make a margarita-do not go here. I'm only giving this place a high rating of a 2 because we got some great laughs out of our experience and still continue to laugh about this place

The Javelina Cantina is a beautiful place, but the food/ drinks weren't the best. The nachos were pretty good but other than that, everything sucked. Our waitress was nice and friendly. The fish and chips were under cooked and many of the dishes we ordered were sweet.

Went for happy hour, pretty good. Would go back. Nachos were good, wings were similar to classic pizza place wings.

we enjoyed our dinner and would go back. great Cobb salad and my friend enjoyed the richness of the smoked pork plate. Bobby our server was friendly and efficient.

they have reopened with a better bigger menu. going there tonight and I will get back as to quality and service.
