    Love coming here. The food is delicious and the service great. It can get pretty loud, between tables and the fajitas, but the food is worth it.

    I love javelina but we came on 06/26/24 and they did not have a/c. I think I remember coming in the past during summer and it being hot too. Great food / drinks, but wouldn’t recommend coming here to escape the heat, especially during a heatwave 🙃 I left dinner sopping wet. Will be back but only in the fall/winter

    The ventilation in the place is so poor, you will leave smelling like fajitas for 3 days.
