If you're from Ogden, then you know this place is a staple. My kids have grown up in these restaurants. The owner and his entire staff at ALL of his locations are top shelf. Kind, friendly, and very welcoming. However.....we went this last week( it's been a while) and while all the cleanliness and friendliness was still there, the food seemed to have e slipped a bit, portions seemed much smaller, rice seemed different, beans were very thin and just the overall appearance of our food was lacking. Toooo much enchilada sauce was all over our food, making it soggy and hard to taste the flavors we have always enjoyed. Pricing everywhere has sky rocketed, so it's not just here, but it was pretty pricy for what we received. 63.00$ for two dinner entrees and one appetizer as an entree and TWO sodas. We for the first time in 27 years were disappointed when we left.

UPDATE: About a year later I stopped in for a late lunch. Very coincidentally, I ordered the exact same meal - Tamale and Cheese Enchilada. Service was great and the food was delicious, again. INITIAL: First time at Javier's on Washington Blvd. I was having my tire repaired just down the street. Great, friendly service. Very welcoming. Seats were slightly on the uncomfortable side. Informal, family meal atmosphere. I had the Tamale and Cheese Enchilada combination which is served with Refried Beans and Rice. Everything was delicious.

Friends brought me here on my 2nd day in Utah to sate my craving for Mexican food. The server brought the table some freshly made corn chips with individual bowls of salsa. I had their No. 10 Pancho Villa combo with taco and enchilda and a tamale with a side of beans and cheese. My friends both had taco salads. We were all impressed by the delicious quality food and impeccable service. Sadly, this store doesn't have beer, so only 4 stars!

Delicious Mexican Style dishes served super staff waitress very pleasant, helpful with discriptions of variety of Mexican Dishes on the menu atomsphere pleasant warm inviting clean dining area chips and salsa served right with the greeting food tasty, delicious,right portions served. Plenty of parking w/ handicap at entrance very clean parking area
