Penny J.

So good. And like okay priced too. There's a student meal combo which is great, great bean rice burrito and the burrito bowl too so good. A little too much bell peppers in the bowl for my taste tho. Service: fire. Everyone is so nice

Menu

Grabbed a meal for the beach. Enchilada plate with verde sauce & avocado lime chile verde salad (one of the Friday specials). Each day there are meals made just for that day of the week. Enchiladas tasted great & the verde sauce was delicious. The chile verde pork was just on the edge of being too spicy for our taste but the flavor was excellent. My only complaint is I prefer refried or pinto beans rather than black beans. This is really a take out place because it's a house and there are only two small tables on the side that seat maybe three adults each. If in the area again I would definitely eat here a second time.

Carne Asada burrito with no Rice!
Rocio D.

We drove all the way from San Gabriel Valley to enjoy some burritos from La Sirena. They used to have a location in Irvine, but after it closed, we searched for another and found this spot! Upon arrival, we quickly noticed the typical Laguna Beach traffic, especially on a beautiful Saturday with clear blue skies. Despite the congestion, we were determined to reach our destination. After navigating the long traffic, we finally parked. I ordered a Carne Asada Burrito without rice, opting for just rice and beans, just the way I like it. (Fun fact: I prefer my burritos with all the beans' juice creating a creamy texture. If you prefer a drier burrito, you might want to get rice on the side.) My husband ordered a Carne Asada with Shrimp Burrito without rice, and it was equally delicious. The chips and salsa were just as delightful. The ambiance of this establishment is fantastic, offering open-air seating for those who want to enjoy the ocean breeze or indoor seating for those who prefer to avoid it. This location is just as good as the Irvine spot was. I would probably visit again on a weekday when it's less busy, but if you live nearby, why not give it a try?

Blackened Wild Salmon Salad
Laura Y.

Best Mexican food in Laguna Beach! The ingredients are so fresh and the portions are plentiful, especially the salads! We had the avo Lime Salad (carne asada), the blackened wild caught salmon salad, and two carne asada taco, and this was more food we could eat! We have never had so much avocados in our salads! The salad dressings and salsa are made fresh too! Loved that we could eat clean food, especially with the organic mixed greens, grass fed beef and wild caught salmon! The service was very fast and staff were very nice too. There are only two tables on-site and we were lucky to have a table available when our food was ready. The ambiance is very cozy, tucked away in the back streets, very local feel, as we could watch many locals, including students, stop by to orde and leave. We went there for lunch and ordered online for dinner yesterday (to grab and go). We are planning to eat there again today for lunch (grab and go eat at the beach). This place is a gem, not to mention that the prices are very reasonable. Finding quality fresh food/salads under $20 is rare these day.

Veggie Breakfast Burrito Green Chile Burrito

Staff was super kind and friendly. We got 2 breakfast burritos and they were both so so yummy! We'll definitely be coming back again after a morning hike.

Salmon taco, mahi mahi taco, asada taco
Cisca W.

Great place to grab a bite. Wonderful customer service. Pretty small place but they do have few tables outside. They have about 2 tables few steps up, next to their restaurant. They're familiar with allergies as I'm allergic to gluten and dairy, Tried their fish of the day which was mahi mahi taco, it's so good. Tried their salmon as well - they have a big piece of salmon. The size of their tacos are pretty good size and not tiny, Tortilla soup advised as gluten free as well, and omitted the cheese - very tasty and not spicy, just enough saltiness, not too salty. If you sat few steps up on the table facing the street, you'll get lovely Mountain View and just sense of calm. This place is away from the crowdedness of the Main Street.

Super fast Service. The portions are large. The food tastes great. They had a few booths and some seating outside but most of the seating were single bar chairs or small tables. Great beer menu (margaritas as well). I took family for lunch. Probably has a different vibe later in the day. Perfect spot for drinking with friends... lots of room to mingle and just chill. Order at the register and food delivered to the table. Salsa bar off to the side.

I really enjoyed the beans and liked that it was offered as something different. I also ordered a spicy michelada with Modelo which was really good. For food we shared the pollo à la chipotle and seafood enchiladas. Both entrees were really good! You could taste the crab in the enchiladas and the sauce on the chicken was really good. The chicken was also moist and not dry. I enjoyed the chile relleno but felt like it wasn't needed. My boyfriend really liked the rice. They offered us more chips once we ran out and brought out a fresh batch. Oh my, the chips were amazing when they were still warm! If I wasn't full I could've eaten the whole basket myself.

My water glass stayed full. The room is nice and cozy. We had no problem with parking, but I can imagine it may get tight during the dinner hour. We will return, because I look forward to trying several other menu items. I highly recommend Carmelita's.

The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with thoughtful attention to every little detail. Add the spectacular ocean view, and you have a setting that makes you want to settle in and savor the evening. Our server, Paul, was exceptionally attentive, making sure we had everything we needed and helping us feel truly cared for throughout our meal. The toasted coconut margarita remains a favorite, and the wine list has all our go-to choices. Between the delicious food, gracious service, and beautiful setting, South of Nick's is a must every time we're in Laguna Beach.

I ordered for my takeout the La Calle Taco Kit ($80), which included 2 pounds of meat (half steak, half chicken), cheese, black beans, pico de gallo, guacamole, salsa, onions, rice, 2 dozen tortillas, and limes. Bangers all around. The chicken was superbly spiced and tender, the beans soft and well spiced, the tortillas hot and fresh. Of the lineup, the strongest contender was the guacamole, which had the perfect mix of cilantro, lime, and creamy avocado, one of the best guacamoles I've ever had. I found the steak a little weak, being more beef shavings which were a little tough. Everything came together well to feed our group of five with plenty for leftovers the following day. Service was friendly and very, very fast. When calling in our order I was quoted 12 minutes. For such a large order during the dinner rush, this is commendable. Service was effusive and friendly, tailoring the order to our liking (half and half meat, half and half tortillas, the mildest of mild salsas, etc). Price, above, was very reasonable for the quantity of food in an expensive area. I went in with modest expectations but left quite impressed. Te felicito, Chelas! You have my highest recommendation for anyone looking for quality Mexican in Laguna at a fair price. Food: 4.5/5 Service: 5/5 Value: 4.5:5

The lush indoor palm trees are nice focal elements. Service is also very attentive and pleasant. Does Javier's offer the best Mexican food in Southern California? No. You do sometimes get the sense that you're paying for the vibes and the views. But there are still tasty options! On a recent visit, the pescado crudo was very fresh, bright, and flavorful. I also really enjoyed my pina margarita. While the trio of seafood enchiladas were tasty, I thought the lobster meat was a bit too finely chopped for my liking. The crab enchilada was actually my favorite of the three. The mole poblano was decent, although I've certainly had more complex moles. But not terrible by any means! I'd recommend Javier's for a date night or a special occasion with family!

Javier's - Newport Beach (Crystal Cove) 7832 E. Coast…read moreHighway, Newport Beach, CA 92657 Date of visit: October 2026 Disappointing Service at Javier's Newport Beach - Crystal Cove I recently visited Javier's in Newport Beach and was extremely disappointed with the service, especially considering the restaurant's reputation and prices. I ordered the Aguachile de Camarón, a dish I absolutely loved at Javier's in Las Vegas. It was listed on the first page of the appetizer menu, and I specifically pointed it out and made it clear that I did not want octopus, I wanted shrimp. When my food arrived, they brought me ceviche instead. I remembered the aguachile in Las Vegas being served in a stone bowl, so I politely asked one of the waiters whether the Newport Beach location served the same dishes as the Las Vegas location. He assured me that Javier's in Las Vegas, Los Angeles, and Orange County all served the same dishes. I explained that what I received looked and tasted completely different from what I remembered in Vegas and that the ceviche was extremely sour. He then asked, "Did you order the aguachile?" I said yes, and he confirmed that what I had been served was actually ceviche. At that point, I realized my order had been taken incorrectly. What disappointed me most was that nobody acknowledged the mistake or apologized. Instead, the interaction made me feel as though they thought I had ordered the wrong dish. It was honestly embarrassing having to send the food back in front of other diners. I felt like people were watching me return a dish simply because I didn't like it, when that wasn't the case at all. I knew exactly what I ordered. I wasn't changing my mind or being difficult. I just wanted the aguachile with shrimp that I had requested from the beginning. They eventually brought out the correct dish, but I had to wait for my food twice because of their mistake. Not once did anyone take responsibility or offer an apology. To make matters worse, they even charged me an additional $5 for habanero sauce. Considering the inconvenience, the extra wait, and the confusion caused by the incorrect order, I would have appreciated a small gesture of goodwill, even something as simple as waiving that $5 charge. It's not about the money. It's about customer service and how a restaurant treats its guests when something goes wrong. I understand that mistakes happen, but what matters is how they're handled. A simple acknowledgment, an apology, or a small gesture would have completely changed my impression of the experience. I genuinely enjoyed Javier's in Las Vegas, which is why I was looking forward to visiting the Newport Beach location. Unfortunately, this experience left me feeling disappointed and embarrassed over something that wasn't my mistake. For a restaurant with Javier's reputation and pricing, I expected much better attention to detail, accountability, and hospitality. Customers should never be made to feel embarrassed or responsible for a restaurant's ordering mistake. Sometimes a sincere apology and a little consideration go a long way.
