Mexican Cuisine
If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.
Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.
Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.

We stopped by for lunch today I thought this was the place Arturo our Yard Maintenance guy recommended, but after eating there I am pretty sure it isn't. We had the dog so we need to use the drive thru. We ordered and about half way thru the lady got frustrated and said "come to the window", we did and sat for about 10 minutes wondering what the hell is taking so long. Finally a guy opens the window and verifies our order, she did not write down the 2nd part of our order, so he adds it and closes the window. Cue another 10 minutes or so and we are still wondering what is taking so LONG. Finally we get our food. It is a greasy bland mess. We wanted 3 crispy tacos and 3 soft. We got all crispy tacos, and the meat was mystery meat, we ordered Asada and what we received was so tasteless and pale we could not figure out what kind of meat it was. The tacos were full of shredded iceberg lettuce and had a tiny amount of pre-shredded cheese a couple small tomato pieces and what looked like a green pepper of some sort. It was gross as hell. The rice was overcooked and just as bland as everything else. We got two thimble sized salsa's one green and one red, they were the best thing about our entire meal. I would not recommend this place, nor would I ever go back.

I have been a fan of this place from day one. They have made it a norm to mess up my order everytimr I come for food. Today I can in with my family. 40 year old virgin was playing a very inappropriate movie for a family restaurant. I asked for it to be changed and they did. Our order came wrong and a number of other people's orders came out before our own. Idk if I will be returning.....

Oh Javier's. My first clue things might be awry was how devastatingly empty you were at 6:30 on a Monday night. There was NO ONE in the restaurant as I pulled into the lot. No cars in the lot either. Next door, Taco Bell had a line of cars in their drive through. Uh oh. Undeterred, visions of quesadillas dancing in my head, I pulled into Javier's drive through. A nice woman seemed puzzled by my choices, indeed when I arrived at the window ( after squinting to read the stupid sign in the pouring down rain and the dark with the menu on it, hardly lit up and arranged now in such a way that the pictures are larger than the names of the food, I hate it). Anyway. I digress. I pulled up to the window after ordering at the speaker/sign, and she said "Cinco quesdillas?" and I said " NO!, DOS. Uno de pollo y uno de carnitas." "OHHH okay", she said, and she disappeared. Uh Oh. I waited a while, she came back and took my money, and disappeared again. Eventually a grumpy man came and thrust a big white plastic bag with styrofoam containers in it at me. He did not ask me about salsa they way they usually do, nor did he say thank you or come again, or anything much of anything. We are done with you, was what I felt. Ok. I drove the stuff home. Upon opening, the quesadillas had been only partially cut apart and sort of crammed into their containers. WHO DOES THAT? and there was section of soupy white stuff ( sour cream? maybe in another less watery life, we didn't eat that) and a section of white icebergy lettuce I could do without. No guac. No tomato. Some containers of hot red and green salsa that saved the day, really. My carnitas quesadilla was okay, not cut apart, but the carnitas was pretty good. My daughter did not like her chicken quesadilla at all. The chicken was red with spice or chili powder or salsa or something, and not recognizable as chicken... maybe it was dark meat. It did not taste too chickeney. She did not eat it. She did eat her cold french fries, they were nothing special. Not crinkly as anticipated but she poured ketchup on them and ate them anyway. Ketchup solves the world's problems, or at least hers. I think we will stick with Don Pedro and Don Chilito for drive through Mexican on the cheap in the future, our experiences there have been better. Sour cream looks like sour cream, and the people are way more friendly and the food is presented nicely. This was a bummer visit to Javier's. Their weekend and evening people simply aren't as good as their daytime peopleI don't think they care as much, and I think that has been noted a few times in reviews lately. I hope they get their act together, they can't afford to slack with Taco Bell right next door, and Ochoa's and Don Pedro mere blocks away. If only Ochoa had a drive through. (sigh)

Steak for the nachos was reheated on the flat top that they were cooking fish on. Smelled like fish something awful and there was even a fish bone in the steak nachos, disgusting! We used the drive thru and the intercom was impossible to hear through so we were forced to pull up and confirm our order. When we got home we noticed half our order was missing and we had to drive back and show our receipt. They consulted with the cook to validate that we weren't trying to pull a fast one. The chorizo breakfast burritos were massive and tasted ok but nowhere near good. As mentioned before the nachos were horrific and ruined the meal. I wouldn't go back to this place if you paid me!

*Internet high-five to Jesse B.* I'd effectively written Muchas Gracias off after falling in love with another certain Mexican restaurant at the other end of Hillsboro, thusly, I didn't even note the transformation of MG into Javier's. Once I *did* take notice, of course I'm going to turn to Yelp, and Jesse's endorsement was enough for me to swing by last week for lunch. *second internet high-five to Jesse* I'm not so much convinced it's a reboot with new owners/operators as it is a "rebranding" with... the same owners/operators? The reason I'm compelled to make this statement is that, upon outward appearances, the menu is EXACTLY the same as MG. Oregon burrito? Yes. Carne Asada fries? Yes. Even the option of 5 rolled tacos (without rice and beans by default) or 3 rolled tacos (WITH rice and beans). Tack on the same exact phone number as before and it's just a bit head scratching. No matter. How does it taste? I'll get to that. Jesse ain't kidding when she says they've spiffed up the joint. I won't label the old MG "run-down", but it could always have stood for some spit-shining. Well, that's been done in spades here at Javier's. It was clean and well organized when I was there. Same Wendy's style gated waiting line type deal, same counter, just... everything was in it's place at Javier's, and seemingly wasn't at MG. They've spiffed up the salsa bar quite a bit, too, and there were nice fresh limes, cilantro and everything you'd expect out there. On this trip I got 5 tacos. Admittedly I'm on a huge (authentic, as best I can approximate) taco kick, and I seemingly can't avoid them. So, yeah, 3 carne asada and 2 pollo asada. The tacos are $1.30 each, which is $0.30 more than the other across town joint I mentioned. How were they? Carne asada: not bad, not as good as the other joint. More meat. Pollo asada: VERY good, again more meat, *better* than the other joint. Interesting! One thing I'd prefer is the cilantro and onions on the side, as they include them right in each of the tacos. Not a huge deal, but I like it that *other joint* includes those on the side so you can doctor your tacos at will. If subsequent trips are like my first, I will be a repeat customer. This joint is just too convenient to skip by, and I'm glad my first experience was a good one.

Fresh food, friendly people. Excellent prices as well! Can't go wrong. Drive thru speed was very quick. Orders always accurate. Food is aitjenticw, fresh and made to order. They will tailor your order however you'd like

Very nice young lady at the counter. Food was a bit overpriced. Quality was OK EXCEPT for the meat in the wet burritos we ordered.. We got Pastor and Carne Asada.. full of gristle and fat.. which is ok if you enjoy gristle and fat. Fresh Salsa bar and the Cheese Quesadilla were the only highlights.. not sure if we'll be back or not unless they improve the meat quality. Seriously GROSS. Why can't we find good Mexican Food in the metro area?
(1)Michael T.
Work right down the street and love to setup in four lunch here. They carne asada fruits are the best, and they will let you add others nests to it for a reasonable $0.25-.50. I recommend this place to my clients often.

I've been eating at Javier's at least once every other month since they opened, but after my last 2 visits I'm compelled to share my experience and hope the owners read these reviews and make some changes. This (to me) was...WAS a 4 star place- a bargain for the price but now, you are down to 2 and here's why- I love rellenos, and at around $7 for 2 with all the trimmings it was a great deal, but the last 2 times, they aren't cleaning the seeds out of the Chiles, and that is just gross. You take a big bite, expecting a mouth full of Posado pepper, and a goodly amount of cheese, and instead are trying to deal with a mouth full of seeds. Nasty, just plain nasty. I went up to the counter and complained and basically got a "What can you do?" Attitude. Until now there never were any seeds in their rellenos, someone is being just plain lazy. The refried beans this trip were watery as all get out, I mean almost bean soup for consistency, and the rice was basically white rice colored orange for flavor, no Safflower or even a hint of paprika or cayenne like there used to be. Finally if you guys want to cut costs, STOP SMOTHERING YOUR FOOD IN SHREDDED LETTUCE AND PICO DE GALLO. Seriously, I'm not a fan of Pico de Gallo, so even though I ask them to leave it off, they often forget, and I get stuck with it anyway. As for the lettuce, there was enough to make a side salad. It was on and IN everything. 2 rellenos, rice and refried beans do NOT need lettuce smothering the top of it, but there it was. trying to pick shreds of lettuce out of watery refried beans is a lesson in futility. No mas por favor, no mas. I'm going to wait about 6 months and give them one more chance, after that...well as said they aren't the only game in town.

I'm not a big insta-review update but I will do so here. Because... I've fallen in love with their chicken quesadillas. For $5.50 you get a huge quesadilla topped with guacamole & sour cream (like REAL sour cream...so good) and you'll be full until the next day's breakfast. The chicken is delish, well cooked and season and delivered fast. Also let me comment on their condiment bar - red and green salsa, hot sauce, ketchup and all sorts of things I can't even recognize but are oft used. I rue the day I don't often work right across the street from this place.

I was not impressed with their chicken tacos, the meat was barely warm and that should have been my first clue to stop eating. Lets just say I paid the price the next day. I have no idea what the other reviewers are talking about I have had 'MUCH' better Mexican food at Don Pedro's, and I don't even really care for DP. I am a SoCal girl and I am always on the hunt for REAL Mexican food, and Hillsboro is severely lacking in that department. Come to SoCal I will take you to what I consider to be a crumby Mexican restaurant and I bet you'll tell me it's the best you ever had. For me this place is a bust and even though MG was ok it is sorely missed when compared to this new place.

When they first opened the tacos were very good and I became a very regular customer daily. Always ordering the same thing chicken tacos with cilantro and onions and very hot salsa. The chicken tacos were different and not good some days and then the next day they would be the way i liked and have always ordered them. Some days the tacos were disgusting and other days they were good but they changed again and gave me some nasty shredded meat that had bbq and lettuce and American cheese and it was disgusting seriously, i took it back the man did not want to take it back I told him this is not what I order daily and he said something I started speaking in Spanish and told him I wanted my money back and to take this food. he started arguing with me and told me to order something else I said No and said give me my money back please. i finally threw my food in the window and said I don't want this nasty garbage. Give me my money now. also on Valentine's day they had several very mad customers including me and my group. They gave the american people fries instead of rice and beans and didn't make any of our orders right. There was a very long line all the way out the door of mad customers not getting what they really ordered. The food is disgusting in the Hillsboro location and they are very rude. I would not recommend this location at all!!!

Love this place! I was SOOOO happy as I drove past one day in March and saw them putting up the sign for this place opening. I went about 2 weeks before they had their grand opening-- I was that nosy I had to check it out despite it clearly not being finished... but to my joy! The drive thru was already open. I love Javier's in Nopo and since I just moved here from San Diego I had been making weekly special visits from Beaverton to Nopo for some REAL mexican food. (sorry Oregonians "Taco Time" is a non MF factor!) This Javiers is BETTER than the original Nopo location (that one is ghetto fab), this one is much nicer, clean, the workers are nice & helpful. Food is delish!! Love the beans, love the rice, love the pollo asado, taco salads, chicken tacos, carne asada fries.... ok I like the food in general. haha Prices are awesome for a lot of food. Could turn into a gordito off of $5 or less! This location is closed 10p-6a unlike the Nopo spot thats 24hrs, but then again Hillsboro is dead after 8 anyways. For true taco enthusiasts its comical that this Javiers is directly across the parking lot from a Taco Bell where you pay $8 for a combo half the size full of doritos and fritos. o_O No thanks! Javiers you are delicious and I blame you for the last 3lbs I tucked into my jeans!

We've made this our go to fast food Mexican spot. Everything we've had here has been excellent, but we have only tried a few things since they're so good we don't want to change. Bf always gets nachos with ground beef, it's huge and filled with lots of great ingredients. The meat is flavorful and plentiful. I recently tried the chicken quesadilla and it had a ton of meat in it, I was impressed. I've also had the enchiladas with carnitas and chicken and really enjoyed both meats. They had lots of meat and flavor. I like them better than Don Chillito's, where I used to go to for enchiladas. Their green and red salsas are also both really good. Great quick take out food for those nights of relaxation at home.
(5)Calvin L.
my food was very good. hot and fresh. 2 California burritos and carne asada fries. large coke. it was very delicious and cheap as well. Burritos are very filling are less than 5 dollars.

Sometimes eateries deserve a second chance because it was obvious to me the poor quality of the food, or the crappy service was just a fluke, and I give them the benefit of the doubt. However, if after a second visit nothing has changed, I never go back. With my recent first visit to Javier's Tacos via the drive-thru, it was as good as it will ever get, which was lousy. Fish tacos. Everyone I know keeps trying to convince me to order them. So I did at Javiers. Yukko!!! Not that they were "fish", but that the coating on the fish was so over-fried? it just about broke a tooth. More breading than fish for sure, and greasy at that. I also ordered 2 cheese enchiladas, and got chicken enchiladas. I will NOT recommend Javier's Tacos to anyone, ever. No second chance here.
(1)Bob M.
Last try. I'm going with the fish tacos here at Javier's. It's a little home grown joint, so you want to like it for that. Yeah. Now, mind you , I have tried the carnitas, beef, rolled tacos...now fish. I'm trying to give this little place a chance. Oh, lordy. Señor Gordon's. Kinda, this is a fish jerky thing with breading happening. Raw tortillas, which just isn't going to help this meal. I mean, look at the picture, it is a pretty dish. But those salty beans, the bland rice, the Cola wasn't mixed right--too much syrup. No tortilla chips, which I am sure I wouldn't have wanted judging by what I did have. The fresh salsas, veggies, pickled and fresh were nice enough. It looks good, but this all signs of a dying ship. I don't think Taco Bell is killing it. It's killing itself. And that is a shame.
