" Overall, I was impressed with Agave. The food was good but didn't blow me away. The highlight for me was the environment; it felt authentically festive. My bowl in particular felt tiny compared to what I've gotten at other places with a similar price point. I would say the service was impeccable, so that's a huge plus! I think I will come again! " (*Curated Review*)

" As someone who loves trying different Mexican restaurants, Agave left a mark! The mole sauce was exquisite, truly capturing the essence of traditional Mexican cuisine. I found the prices reasonable considering the quality of the food and the generous portions. The menu offers a nice blend of authentic dishes and local favorites. I can’t wait to go back and try more items. " (*Curated Review*)

" We celebrated a friend's birthday at Agave and the night was fantastic! Our server was friendly and attentive, making sure our drinks were always full. We ordered a variety of dishes and every one of them was delicious. The highlight was definitely the guacamole; it was fresh and had the perfect seasoning. The only downside was that it was quite busy, and we had to wait a little longer for our table. Still, I would highly recommend this restaurant! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful place! Agave has a fantastic ambience with music that isn’t too loud, perfect for some quality conversation. I ordered the carne asada, and let me tell you, it was cooked to perfection! The chips and salsa made a great appetizer. The staff was friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. I can't wait to visit again and try more from their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had lunch at Agave last week. The lunch specials were reasonably priced, and the food quality was decent. I had the fish tacos, which were flavorful but slightly overcooked. Service was friendly and prompt, making everything smooth. I might come back to try their dinner menu as I heard good things about it. " (*Curated Review*)

" Agave is a Mexican gem! The food was authentic; you can genuinely taste the tradition in their recipes. I had the spicy shrimp dish, and it was incredible — cooked just right! The server was friendly, too. A bit on the pricier side, but worth it for the quality and experience. I highly recommend them! " (*Curated Review*)

" Agave is a mixed bag for me. The food was decent, especially the tacos, but I expected more authenticity. The salsa and chips were fine, but I felt the main dishes lacked that true Mexican flair. Service was good, though, and the ambiance of the place was vibrant with a nice layout. I might return to try some of their specials. " (*Curated Review*)
