    I #love chronic tacos, they make the best food in newps and the view of balport is in-freaking-credible. Not to mention the amazing service of the kind hearted workers, they have. They make the best long burritos with extra meat.

    By far the best chronic location in Orange County. I have been coming here for the last 20 years and the service has never waivered from perfect. Will continue to come for the great food and amazing service.

    My man and I have been coming here every Monday night for the last 5 weeks and we have nothing but amazing things to say! Hands down best potato tacos! each time we come we get potato tacos and a bean and cheese burrito. The beer battered shrimp is so juicy! Tortillas are fresh and full. Green salsa is our favorite but the cilantro crema on top of the bowlrito was fabulous. Not only is the food just super, the staff are super attentive, quick and efficient as well as friendly. They make our whole experience worth the drive as we are from LA county :))

    I have a lot of guys that come in and out of Cali as they are training with me for their upcoming…read morebasketball season, and one of the most common questions I always get is, "What are the go-to restaurants around here?" When that question comes up, one of my absolute favorite Mexican cuisine spots to recommend is Javier's. It's one of those places that consistently delivers a great experience every time I go. The ambience at Javier's is perfect whether you're planning a date night or just an evening out with your family. It has a warm, welcoming vibe that makes you want to sit back and enjoy your time there. On top of that, the drinks always hit the spot and pair really well with the food, making the whole dining experience feel complete and well thought out. My go-to dish has to be the seafood enchiladas. You really can't go wrong with any of the options, but those stand out every time. The texture of the enchiladas is spot on, and the salsa complements the dish perfectly without overpowering it. Every bite feels balanced and flavorful, and it's one of those meals you find yourself craving again soon after. I also always make sure to grab the guacamole because, honestly, who doesn't love chips and guac? What I really appreciate is that this guac is different from the typical versions you find elsewhere--it has a freshness and flavor that really sets it apart. It's simple, but done at a high level, and it pairs perfectly with everything else on the table. The service at Javier's is always high-quality, and that's a big reason I keep coming back. The staff is attentive, friendly, and makes the whole experience even better. I still find myself wanting to try new items on the menu because every visit has been such a great experience so far, and I'm excited to see what I discover next.

    Some interesting observations. #1 the place was packed and gorgeous! The service hit and miss. I…read morenoticed (here on Yelp) that the restaurant does not comment on reviews - you would think they would at least comment on the negative ones. I felt as though because they are always so busy, they really don't care if people don't return. We did get a bit of special attention because our friends with us knew a lot of the staff. I asked if I could order a standard chili relleno and a side of beans. Waitress said yes. They brought me the wrong thing. They brought "Relleno de Picadillo Poblano stuffed with ground beef, potatoes, cheese"... I don't eat ground beef and they brought a side of beans AND rice (I did not order the rice). One of our party ordered lamb chops medium well - they came rare. We told the waitress about the two issues. She picked up the lamb chop plate, left mine (I was assuming they would bring me the right thing, then clear). The brought back the lamb chops and walked away. I never got what I ordered. I could have tried again, but gave up. $200 bill for two, and my husband had water and I had two cocktails. I wanted to love this place! You pay for the ambiance and location, which I am fine with.

To be honest, I…read morewasn't feeling most of the places I encountered - however a family friend said they had tried Great Mex and had good things to say. Mexican sounded good, so I decided to check it out. Great Mex is located right on the main strip on the Balboa Peninsula. It's very much a hole-in-the-wall space - with a super simple/casual set up. The space isn't large - you order your food at the counter and then there are a few tables where you can sit. I was lucky that the place was empty when I arrived - shortly after I sat to eat a bunch of people came and filled the tables. They have a good variety of Mexican dishes - nothing too outrageous, mostly things familiar to the American palate. I decided to get the two taco combo dish and chose al pastor as my protein. The tacos were super tasty - generously filled with two being enough if you're hungry but not starving. The dish came with rice and refried beans which were also good. They carry Mexican Coke, so I got one of those to finish the meal off. Service was great - they were super friendly and the food was ready relatively quickly. They also went above and beyond - two people in my party got fountain beverages but they noticed they were too watered down and were quick to replace the syrup and provide us new beverages. Overall, I had a good meal at Great Mex - definitely a standout on Balboa Peninsula.

We are a bit obsessed with a Birria truck that no one can compare to but this Birria was truly disappointing. Just look at the oil. Big chunks of meat in it just sitting in oil. I myself always get a quesadilla and hope for a crispy outside and oooey gooey inside. It was diffeeent. Had corn in it and was under cooked. No crisp at all. Would have had to cook it myself to make it have any sort of crisp that I would have expected. But the inside was very flavorful. Didn't come with salsa so glad I had my own. Just a tiny scoop of guac. The taquitos were different colors which was a nice change and the chicken was good. But they were over cooked, over crisp ( opposite the quesadilla. No chips and salsa provided Just a lukewarm warm meal left on a counter for pickup thinking it was DoorDash and not the actual customer. Now I think differently of restaurants and how they leave pickups and such. We did call to indicate how the order was and received credit so that was greatly appreciated. But it was a true shame bc I had high hopes for this place. We drive by all the time. But I guess that's why on a sat night there were no cars in the parking lot wouldn't recommend
