El Agave Mexican Grill

Stopped in for lunch and what a great decision to pick this place. By far the best Mexican spot on this trip (3 others). They have homemade chips that are light and crispy and not greasy. The salsa I'm not too sure about but they come in carafes so you can pour your own. I ordered the Big Boy burrito. It has chicken and steak, plus the usual rice, pico, lettuce and covered with a cheese sauce. Also, the portion is very generous. I also had the Michelada which is made with Clamato. It was very tasty.Our server was very attentive and on top of it. He came by to let me know the drinks would be on the way as the bartender was busy. I think we all appreciate when they are proactive instead of pretending nothing is amiss.The prices were very reasonable. The food was great and the ambiance is nice. I would definitely stop in again if in the area again. One thing to note is it isn't right off the highway (contrary to what it looks like on the map). It's a good 8-9 miles off the highway.

Located on Main Street in a strip mall type building. Lots of parking and easy to get in and out. This place was recommended to us, so we had to try it. Got a table quickly. It your typical Mexican restaurant menu but the thing that stood out for me was the fajitas.They offered vegetarian fajitas that contained peppers, onions, zucchini, yellow squash, broccoli and cauliflower. I'm not a vegetarian but I do love grilled veggies. So, I ordered it with chicken. Let me tell you, those were the best fajitas I've ever had. The flavor was all there. It was served with the normal sides. Rice, beans, Pico, sour cream, salad and flour tortillas. Service was a little slow, but the staff was all very friendly. Highly recommend and will definitely go back when I'm in the area.

El agave Mexican Grill opened about three months ago on Main Street in Tupelo. Larger restaurant with a very diverse menu lunch menu that has combination specials from choosing two items from tacos, Chile Relleno, taquitos, tamales, Burritos, enchilada and quesadillas; these combinations come with rice and beans. The menu items consist of various enchiladas, fajitas from beef, chicken, shrimp or veggie and various chicken items and chimichangas. It is not a authentic Mexican restaurant but more like a Tex-Mex. They also have numerous salads and various appetizer. the chips come with a creamy queso dip and a salsa of that is very mild and tomatoey, was OK not authentic Mexican. Service was good our server was very attentive. Colleagues had the chimichanga was ok, shrimp fajitas were good, I had the chicken taquitos that was bland, overcooked and greasy.

Nice ambiance considering it's in a strip mall. Service is only average somewhat excusable due to how busy the place is especially during soccer season. ( Soccer & baseball fields are across the street). Sadly the food is just ok. Pretty standard Fare for a strip mall Mexican place. Nothing outstanding pretty mundane in terms of taste. Nothing bad but nothing special either.

The service was outstanding.The food was good.Should you be connoisseur of margaritas---- the organic margarita is the very best I've ever tasted-- and I have tasted several! !!!

Outstanding food and service is very good. Easy to get in and out also. Very hospitable environment.

To Go service is fast and efficient. The food is so tasty, prices are on par with everyone else. I have eaten here several times and not been disappointed. I've tried a few of their drinks and enjoyed them.

I had their chicken soup and it was was delicious. Service was quick and friendly. I recommend you visit soon.

Great food, excellent service. Been to 3 different locations in North MS and all were great.
