Lisandra is one of the main reasons I keep coming back!! She's always friendly, attentive, and makes you feel welcomed. She always remembers her customers, keeps the drinks flowing and makes every visit enjoyable. I also love your amazing ladies nights-they're always so much fun! I'll gladly come back just to have Lisandra as my bartender. Highly recommend! read more

I genuinely don't understand why Agave Bandido is not rated higher. They have a quality, beautiful atmosphere, the friendliest staff and amazing drink and food. Now this is my all means Americanized Mexican food however it's fresh and delicious! They do have all the staples. I really loved seeing their luxe speakeasy I plan to return to. I ordered the quesadilla with steak and platnos (an added touch that was recommended to me by our waitress) and it was delicious! I love their table side guacamole and their margs are as good as they sound. I plan to return for their Birria tacos. read more

This review is for the "speaktiki" portion of the restaurant- a speakeasy-style room that's hidden behind a door inside the restaurant. It's really dark, and really cute. There's a hostess stand that I assume would have asked for ID, because it's only appetizers and mixed drinks. We had 4 people and sat at a coffee-sized table, one side a bench, the other chairs. The server was lovely, explained all the appetizers and even told us which ones came in a quantity of four (for easy sharing). She also knew a LOT about the drinks- which was sweeter, sour, etc- which made a lot more sense when we saw her go back to the bar and make them herself! We ordered one of each app. They were all good, but I think the favorites were the volcano honey shrimp, the tenderloin crunch rice, and the chicken and veggie skewers. I'm not a fan of hummus, but it was pretty cool when she actually took a torch and lit it on fire; the shrimp pineapple bowl was good, but had corn (which I'm also not a fan of, so i was picking it all out like a child); and the chicken flautas to me were sort of dry- those were the least favorite. The music was laid back, but did get progressively louder as the evening wore on, so I'd probably not recommend it for a first date when you're trying to get to know someone. Unless you've already decided the first date sucks and don't really want to talk to them much. I'm sorry I didn't get a picture of the drink menu to post, so I don't remember the drink names, but all of us were happy. For one of each app plus 8 mixed drinks, the tab came around $250 (without tip, but with taxes), so i can only guess that the drinks were fairly priced for what they were. The pours were heavy, and after two we all had a nice little buzz. Service, ambience, food was all great; I'm looking forward to taking a few other friends in the future! read more

Not for me. Service was terrible! And the place wasn't even full! Was told there was a 30-45 minutes wait time on a table for 6. I left at midnight and no table....good thing i was sitting in the bar area. Requested beer buckets, the bartender placed the ice first and the beer on top of the ice. He did that twice! When there are at least 6 bars/restaurants within a mile of each other, you need to stand out for the right reasons. Not for poor service read more

Always a great time at Agave Bandido. Whether it's lunch, dinner or happy hour, this Mexican restaurant and bar always has good vibes. I absolutely love the open concept and the wrap around bar. It's great for getting bartender's attention and mingling. We were recently here for Friday night happy hour. They had a great DJ going and the bartenders were mixing some great drinks. They also have a speakeasy located inside of the restaurant. It's a more mellow and chill vibe with low music and dim lighting. Good for a date night. Staff and service were excellent. My only complaint here is the bathroom situation. For a restaurant this size with a steady influx of people, they have two stalls in the female bathroom. Specifically, two cramped stalls. On this particular night, it was filthy. I at least expected management to have cleaning staff on duty for busy hours. read more

My only issue was it was a bit salty but other than that I enjoyed everything I had. The guacamole trio was so good and when it came home it worked well with toast. When my mom says the margaritas are good it's good. Love shopping then relaxing with a bite to eat. We sat at the open bar and watched a world cup match. Waitress made sure she checked in with us every time she walked by read more

Absolutely amazing experience at Agave! The food was delicious, the atmosphere was wonderful, and the service was exceptional. A special shoutout to our bartender, Lisandra, who was absolutely spectacular! She was attentive, friendly, professional, and made our experience even more enjoyable. Lisandra truly went above and beyond, and her amazing personality and service made our visit memorable. Agave is definitely a place worth checking out--we had a fantastic time and will absolutely be back! read more

I want to say that this is probably a good spot for happy hour, but I went for a chill low key dinner with my mom. We had never been and saw that they played Spanish music. The music was my favorite part, too bad no body was dancing. The place was not packed for a friday night which normally tells you how good or bad a place can be. We sat at the bar which was empty but still dirty on the countertops. I will say our bartender was pretty nice and friendly. As far as the taste of food, it was typical "Americanized Mexican". The taco that had the most flavor was the carnitas. The first drink I ordered off their specialty cocktail menu was a bit too sweet for my liking so I switched it for what I like, a gin and tonic read more

We've eaten at this location several times, usually outside and just to have drinks and appetizers. This time we ate inside and had a full meal. Our server was very nice, gave us suggestions and took great care of us. We started with table side guacamole which was really good. The food was also good and abundant. My chimichanga was enough for 3 meals for me! read more

Agave Bandido - Sports Bars Near Me - Pembroke Pines, Florida

Agave Bandido is a beautiful spot, spacious, nicely decorated, and full of Mexican vibes. The atmosphere definitely makes it a great place to enjoy a meal. The staff is friendly and helpful, though service can be a little on the slower side. We started with complimentary chips and salsa, which were fresh and tasty. I also ordered a passion fruit margarita that was amazing, but unfortunately, it took so long to arrive that my entrée came out before the drink. For my main, I went with the Adobo Chicken Chimichanga, and it did not disappoint. The portion was generous enough that I had leftovers to enjoy the next day. The chimichanga was stuffed with refried beans, Mexican rice, and pulled chicken, then topped with Monterey and Colby Jack cheese, ranchero sauce, cotija, and cilantro. It came with pico de gallo, lettuce, and sour cream on the side. Overall, a really enjoyable experience. With just a bit more attention to timing on drinks and service, this place could easily be 5 stars. I'd definitely come back and recommend it to others! read more

I order from here often but I've only been to the restaurant a couple of times. The first time I came with some friends on a weekend, it was pretty busy. We had to wait for a table but the wait time was minimal. Our server was nice and food was delicious. I ordered tacos and Guac for the table. The second time I came with a friend to the bar, we sat outside. The bartenders didn't even acknowledge us, I had to wave her down even though it wasn't busy. She approached us with a slight attitude but took our order promptly. Bar service definitely needs some improvement. The place is busy during weekends, but it's open late so it's a cool local spot if you want a chill but fun ambience. There's also a DJ plays good music. read more

First time coming here and we absolutely loved it! The vibes were soo nice! Great music, great people. The food was delicious. The drinks were great. I always feel like the margaritas are a hit or miss and this one was definitely a hit! Great customer service. Overall, we will directly be back! read more

Food was great as well as service and ambiance. Pollo asado was the delicious as well as the carne asada tacos

My coworkers surprised me with a happy hour to celebrate my promotion at work. I had never been to this place but as we pulled up I liked how it had indoor/outdoor options. We had a large table reserved and they came and made guacamole table side. The beef empanadas were tasty. The servers came around often to ensure we had drinks. The spicy margarita was yummy! They had great music playing. I did not eat much but most of the group said the food was ok. But we were really there to drink and this place was a great choice for that! read more

I visited this Mexican restaurant on a Tuesday for their Taco Tuesday special, and it was an overall great experience! The atmosphere is vibrant and beautifully decorated definitely one of the more aesthetically pleasing spots I've been to lately. I arrived around 5:30 PM and was seated quickly. The service was consistently good; on both of my visits, the waitstaff was friendly and helpful with recommendations. I ordered the carne asada tacos, which came with cilantro rice and refried beans on the side. Everything was flavorful and well prepared. The carne asada was juicy and seasoned just right. I paired it with a Coke (cause who has tacos without a Coca-Cola ?) and for dessert, I couldn't resist the churros crispy on the outside, soft inside, and served warm. So good! The Taco Tuesday deal 50% off taco entrées is a major win. At 8 PM, a live mariachi trio began performing. They were incredibly talented and really elevated the dining experience. That said, the music (along with the general noise level) got louder as the night went on, which made conversation a bit difficult. If you're looking for good food, great vibes, and a fun night out especially on a Tuesday this is a spot worth checking out. I'll definitely be back! read more

Enjoyable atmosphere at agave Bandito. It has a modern Mexican aesthetic with the Mexican Classics. Their portions are pretty big and good to share. We tried the fajitas to share as well as a quesadilla to share. No complaints with the food or the service as a service with super quick during our weeknight visit,. We paired our entrées with classic margaritas that were not too sweet. Great for those that are watching their sugar intake. They also have happy hour slots only at the bar great for a quick catch up with a friend and some quick happy hour bites. Recommended for a casual date night or get together with friends for a quick drink and dinner! read more

Went during lunch time, so the seating was quick. Server was nice and friendly. Food was good as well.

First time eating at the restaurants. On Thursday is ladies night from 6-9 pm. They have a live music which you can hear the base throughout the restaurant. I ordered the Churrasco empanadas which was very good. I also ordered a steak quesadillas and it was also pretty good. They charge you 20% tip for a party of 8 or more people. This place has several tv located by the bar. Overall the experience was good. read more

I came here the ladies night which offers free drinks and with a DJ playing music. I asked the server and he told me that I was too late for the free drinks. The free drinks are on Thursdays from 6pm-9pm. The server that I had was ok he was as attentive. I had to ask for him to refill my cup with water. I ordered the churrasco empanadas and they come two for $14 and they were so yummy. For entree I chose the shrimp quesadilla and it was so yummy. For dessert I got the churros with ice cream and I chose the tres leches. Both deserts were good but my favorite was the churro dessert. The vibe was amazing live Spanish music and it was such a nice place to eat. The parking is close by and it is free. read more

Nice option to stop at after a full day of shopping in Pembroke Gardens. It is also pet friendly with seating in the outdoor patio and by the bar outside. During the week, they have a decent happy hour including drinks and food. The salad I had was delicious and flavorful but my tequila paloma not so much, it was too juicy for my taste. Our bartender although efficient and fast with everything was a bit dry. We didn't even catch his name since he really didn't introduce himself. Also, had we not asked, we would not have found out about the happy hour menu or that there were taco Tuesday specials. Overall it's a nice restaurant, great vibe with good music. read more

5-30-2027 @ 3pm. Let me start by saying this weekend was a special day for those from central America. We had a small group of 5 people. Walked in as everything was fine business as usual. Well then comes the AC issue they said it off and on which was ok since it wasnt that bad. We said its ok..So then we ordered drinks while deciding food choices. Funny thing is 30-45 mins passed be the waiter came back to ask us anything really. We placed our order so we didn't want to cause any distractions or disturbance. I will say this..if you have to wait for someone to come to you group as if its a favor, time to get up an leave. Not only was the service quality subpar, its was hot and uncomfortable, the food took an hour and 37mins for a party of 5. At the end of the meal the server was pressing for payment. I would advise buyer be ware. read more

Ladies!! If you are looking for the best happy hour on Thursday nights, I highly suggest Agave Bandido! Ladies night is every Thursday from 6:00-9:00pm and the drinks are absolutely free and very tasty! I drank strawberry margarita the entire night. There is a dj spinning various genres of music from reggaton to hip hop. It was packed and alot of fun! After 9:00pm we had munchies and sat down for chips and dip and entrees such as the beef burrito and shrimp tacos. Definitely will be back at this establishment! read more

Place gets busy. Music, packed bar, happy hour till 7pm. Service is always spotty despite being plenty behind the bar, drinks are hit or miss, food is alright. It's alright, but with all the offerings nearby, if none of those tick your box, it's a 2 minute walk to the next spot. read more

Agave Bandido - Happy hour 50/50 - Sports Bars Near Me - Pembroke Pines, Florida

First time visiting this restaurant, the staff was very welcoming. We decided to dine in. The venue had a very vibrant art design with wood and leather furniture and a very unique and colorful decor. We were assisted by Carolina, she took great care of us. As for the food we ordered the steak fajitas and the barbacoa nachos. For drinks a modelo and the bandido traditional margarita. (Excellent flavor) The nachos were very good, lots of meat, sour cream and shredded cheese, really enjoyed the freshness of the tortilla chips. As for the fajitas the meat was burn and overcooked. Fortunately we were able to change the fajitas but the second time the dish tasted so much better. The fajitas were served with sizzling onions and peppers and a side of lettuce, sour cream, pico de Gallo, shredded and cheese 4 tortillas (flour or corn). As for the service, it was outstanding. Carolina was , attentive and hospitable. She provided an outstanding service and made sure we enjoyed our overall experience. She told us about happy hour during the weekdays and the ladies night! read more

Agave is always a great choice for Mexican in pembroke gardens! They especially have an amazing Taco Tuesday deal that really should convince you to visit! For 19.99 you can get unlimited tacos and mix and match from a huge variety on the menu! I personally tried five different types of tacos, but there was closer to 8 different types! Out of all the tacos I tried, I say the carnitas was my favorite! They have a great amount of cilantro, and cubed onions on top of the the flavorful carnitas. It packs a little tiny spice to add more flavor that is addicting! You also can't go wrong with their margaritas of which I am a huge fan of their classic margs. Overall, if in the area looking for a taco Tuesday, I highly suggest Agave Bandido! read more

Beautiful restaurant with outside seating. I was told my coworkers this place is bomb so we had to try out for ourselves. I had Moscow mule and had steak tacos. The drinks had good amount of alcohol and mix. The tacos were delicious and well presented. I would definitely order again. The queso dip was also very good. But the salsa dip needs more flavor. Chips were fresh and service was on point. I would give big recommendations to come by if you're in town. read more

I can't believe that I'm saying this but VERY DISAPPOINTED. I have been wanting to come here for a long time but it seemed that there was always a long wait time. Seconded to try again and got seated immediately which is a good thing. Well service....lets say not good. We actually silly had to get up and get our server to get our main order. The food? Well the table side guacamole was good ; let's say better than good. The main (Steak Fajitas) was average at best; I would have expected I better beef to veggies ratio and the beef was not of a quality grade. I do have to say the refried bean was actually real good. The issue here is that a Tex-Mex restaurant need to stand out but not just due to their guacamole and refried beans but for the overall meal. But also they need ti work on their service. I don't know if I will return but let's see; there are other Tex-Mex places out there where I know the experience is better. DO BETTER AGAVE BANDIDO i want to have a better experience read more

Wild Halloween costume party at this Pembroke Gardens Mexican restaurant/bar. The outside patio bar had lots of people dancing to Salsa Techno tunes. We got a table inside very quickly but could not get anywhere near the bar since it was a Ladies Drink Free Night only from 7p - 8p. The halloween decor was top notch and loved how the staff was also dressed up with scary costumes. We ordered vodka and craft beer drinks from our friendly waitress, Ashley, who took our appetizer order too. Ashley brought us the complimentary overflowing chips & salsa basket. The Trio Guacamole appetizer came out quickly which consisted of Pineapple Bacon, Chili Salsa, Corn. My favorite was easily the pineapple bacon and scooped it up with our free chips. The bathrooms needed serious attention - but also considering that it was a wild party night here, but staff must have seen the chaos in there. read more

Went for Sunday lunch, place was not packed and the service was great, very helpful and always readily available. The food was VERY good, and portions are so big. My only issue is that the music is so loud, the waitress has to stoop close to you to hear what you're saying even though I'm shouting, so even convos at the table can be difficult. Kinda loud for Sunday when it was mainly families there. read more

Beautiful face great decor really feels like a fun spot. Very packed. We were lucky enough to find two seats at the bar. Our bartender was good. She was really busy so we were patient and she was very nice. Food was very good unfortunately I ordered fajitas that were mojo fajitas and I didn't know that I can't eat, but I took home and changed them and they were delicious great , the vegetables by the way the fajitas awesome and the beans too the rice is a little stale. Great drinks this is a place to go and get really good. Mexican drinks I ordered a spicy margarita and it was very well decorated good flavor spicy for real but on top of it was the chili beware!!! my wife margaritas were awesome and very good prices on food and on drinks very fair. The only Neg was that we had a group of people come in behind the bar, which is kind of only like 3 feet wide from our chair and it was a big group and they were drinking and partying which of course I do too. I love it, but they started dancing bumping into people so we just took off but other than that this is a great place good food by the way the quesadillas with the Barbacoa are excellent and the chicken quesadillas with cheese I will try both of them. Great place. I definitely will return check out their sister restaurant they own another restaurant in the same strip. I forget the name, but it's something with the number. Love it love it. read more
