I really hate to update my review from a few years negatively, but I must. Java has switched to table service instead of ordering at the counter. This really slows the process down. I stopped by for Sunday lunch, waited in line for several minutes, was not greeted. Then I was shown to my table. The Cuban is still good; today's soup was chicken noodle. However, as a solo diner, I was abandoned after my food arrived and the waiter did not check on me. I was given the check on their tablet, with defaulted 20% tip. I tipped it, bit frankly today's service did not deserve that. I visited in person a few years ago when they were still counter service, and unfortunately encountered the same lackadaisical service as the greeter was on their personal phone instead of assisting me.
Still bomb food, but at this rate, stick to go and enjoy at home. If you live close like me, it's not that much more to do to go, and I refill my own water. What a shame; I know waitstaff have the hardest gig, but it is their literal job to greet their customers, check in, and refill drinks. Java is failing in the service area now. read more
