    I had reservations but I called the restaurant before I was going to go . To see if they were able to accommodate me having a baby bassinet stroller at the table because I have a 3 month old . And the lady said no we don’t allow strollers which was upsetting . I feel like anyone should be welcomed . I would have been okay with a table in the corner with the stroller so I wouldn’t be in anyone’s way .

    The hostess Jessica made for a poor experience to begin with. She was extremely condescending and rude. Even though we had a reservation, she refused to sit us because we were a party of 2 and ‘it was close to dinner time.’ I’ve never experienced such poor customer service here. The manager did intervene, thank goodness. Our waiter was great. Food was great. We will return because the location and food are amazing. But please take the time to coach your hostesses to ensure the patron’s experience is enjoyable from the beginning.

    Had a lovely lunch with a great ocean view. The service was a bit slow and the noise level a bit too noisy, but overall, we enjoyed our visit.

    I had my office party arranged for 10. Definitely people arrives in different time. They did not let us sit until all parties there. 8 people were standing outside for 15min in December, in california with unexpected traffic. Finally I talked to manager who sat us but told us we only have 2h!!! For such an expensive restaurant and those many guests want to talk to each other for christmas party!!!

    We went to Javier’s to celebrate our son’s graduation. The ambience was great, food was great. Service was satisfactory. We didn’t feel rushed and were able to relax and spend time with family and friends. Service could have been better, we had to wait for our food for a while, and waters were not refilled until we tracked down our waiter. But overall was good
