Agave Mexican Bar & Grill

Wasted space that's shockingly bad. Let agave go and move on has been the echo...but there are sounding boards begging people to eat there only to prolong the inevitable. Hear me out, as I recognize the importance of supporting a local Mom & Pop restaurant or shop especially in a small town, this establishment will remain off the radar for some time due to its last (3rd) fail. Each being epically frustrating. Nothing more than an apology to encourage me back. LOLThere are more fresh, speedier mobile truck options in 3 other directions within 2-3 miles from this tired place."Taco Trucks" at Lizard Lick & Hwy 64 business, Food Lion, Compare Foods, Mr. G's, or the Tamale Lady at the tire station. Each with the freshest traditional Central American foods. ALL OF WHICH ARE FAR BEYOND what agave produces.

The atmosphere is spot on and staff were really nice. We had a family of four and place was relatively busy on Friday night. It took the server for awhile to take our drink order as well as food but it was busy so understandable. The food was good and drinks were great. I had to take one star off because of the attentiveness of the staff as my daughter's drink and my wife's drink was empty and had to flag her to get a refill. Overall good experience here

Our first visit to this establishment was questionable, this last visit was just plain bad. Although they have a fully stocked bar, which I passed on the way in, its vast selection of liquor is apparently not something they intend on sharing with the customers. After the first visit, I knew I wasn't going to get a mixed drink, but I had to give it a shot and try again. At the very least I figured I could get a whiskey or bourbon on the rocks, especially since I saw a bottle of makers mark at the bar, boy was I wrong.So after an exhausting debate with our server over the non existent liquor selection in the bar, so we settled on a glass of their Zinfandel and a vodka with club soda, on the rocks, with a twist of lime. The theme here seems to be, ask and you shall not receive, because a Rosé and a shot of vodka on the rocks is was hardly what we ordered, nor is sparkling water club soda. The food was well prepared and the only thing that arrived to the table correctly, so thank you for that. Luckily I had a glass of water so I didn't have to indulge that terrible wine. If you goal is to eat and get out as soon as possible, its definitely not worth another trip. Cheers!

Tried it twice, services was not good and the food was not great. Not a fan of this place

My husband and I love Agave! For both dine in and carry out, the service is efficient, orders have always been correct, and the amount of food per order is always more than enough for one. The atmosphere is usually a quieter one but we've seen large groups enjoying a meal too. A Wendell favorite!

Some of the best TexMex I've ever had. Camarones a la Diabla were amazing. Texas Margaritas were fantastic. Everything was hot, well seasoned, and delicious. I'll be back!

I've been going here for a few years now. Great local place. Today I went and decided to really test the menu. I asked for a special burrito. Pastor! Usually they only offer pastor in a taco. They made it special for me. I then asked if they had mole and to my surprise they now offer mole!!!Rich cocoa flavor with a hint of spice. Delicious. Daniel, our server was very attentive and really listened to what I wanted. The chef came thru for me!! My new hang out! You've got to try it. If you've been here before, it's renewed and amazing. I strongly recommend this little treasure

This place #$%&ing sucked.I've been there before, and it was a relatively regular Mexican restaurant.Tonight, it was a #$%&ing %!@$-show.1. The margarita tasted like straight-up lime-aid. There wasn't a drop of alcohol in it. Straight-up stealing.2. It took over an hour to get food. Seriously. After ordering, it took over an hour.3. During that hour, the server never dropped by--not even once. I was having to wave ANYONE walking by down.4. I asked, "do you have ceviche?" The waiter said, "Yes. Fish or shrimp" I ordered the fish. After an hour, I was served grilled tilapia that was chopped-up and mixed with onion, tomato, advocado, and lemon/lime marinade. I asked, "you grilled the fish?" The waiter replied, "yes." I said, "you don't cook the fish in ceviche... you marinade it in lemon and lime juice..." He said, "its MEXICAN ceviche" and insisted the entire time I was there that ceviche was prepared by grilling the fish.5. The waiter then just acted like a straight-up $%&! when I refused the "ceviche" he served.6. The rice on the other dish was absolutely flavorless.Waited over an hour, the waiter straight-up lied about having ceviche, then tried to lie about how ceviche should be cooked, the rest of the food wasn't that good, the margarita had no alcohol in it, and the service was awful despite all the mistakes and issues with the food.F-this place FOREVER.

Agave is our go-to for Mexican food. The food is excellent, staff is friendly, and the environment is fun. We love splitting the quesadilla texana, a side of beans, and queso. Also, their salsa is very good!

The most expensive, low quality Mexican food I've ever had. Stale chips, gristle meat, food tasted microwaved and zero flavor. $8 for a tiny dipping bowl of cheese dip. Seriously ridiculous. Won't be back. I can do better at home.
