Javier & Stephanie Calva Welcomes you to Cleveland, GA's Best Mexican Restaurant
Javier & Stephanie Calva opened Javi’s Mexican Grill & Tavern in September 2022, transforming this location into one of the most welcoming places to eat in Cleveland, GA! With fresh energy, warm service, and a passion for authentic Mexican cuisine, they’ve created a local favorite among Restaurants in Cleveland, GA.
Though new to ownership in 2022, they were far from new to the industry. Javier, originally from Puebla, Mexico, has worked at La Cabana in Helen, GA since 2006 and continues to serve as GM there. Stephanie moved from Germany to Cleveland in 2006 and spent years working in local restaurants. The two met while working at a Cleveland restaurant in this very building in 2012 and fell in love.
Living out the American dream, Javier and Stephanie poured their hearts into revitalizing their own restaurant and bringing something special to the community. That dedication has paid off—Javi’s Mexican Grill & Tavern has now been voted Best Mexican Restaurant in Cleveland, GA two years in a row, winning the White County Readers’ Choice Awards in both 2024 and 2025.
They invite you in with pride and gratitude, hoping you’ll love your experience as much as they love serving this community.
