    First of all, my husband and I were born and raised in Southern California and spent decades traveling south on the border when it was safe and wonderful, so we're quite the connoisseurs of Mexican food. When one walks into this restaurant Agave brings back so many memories. The atmosphere, the service and the food are all exceptional. The salsa is the best I've ever tasted, rich, and so very flavorful. And the margaritas are also excellent. I ordered the Durango enchiladas and my husband Huevo Ranchos. There was so much to eat that we took home enough for dinner! Irma, our waitress, was friendly and made many trips to our table to make sure we were taking care of. If you haven't eaten here, you're really missing out

    My brother.

    The food was very authentic and so delicious!! Mole taste like mom's. In fact everything we ate was so good. Service was great! Our server Adrian was so attentive and so was another server Miguel. Homemade corn tortillas were moist and delicious! Coming from a Mexican who knows authentic, I would definitely recommend!

    Everyone in St Augustine that can't find real mexican food, WE FOUND IT! Ormond beach isn't far and well worth the drive. The food, service and atmosphere are amazing!

    Barely in the shipping container. Obviously poorly handled.

    Ordered 3 items to be delivered by DoorDash. When food was delivered, the amount of chips they sent for three dinners would easily fit in a sandwich bag. The order looked like it had been packaged upside down. That could be blamed on DoorDash poor handling. But the fact that the order was not filled correctly can not be attributed to DoorDash. A call to the restaurant yielded claims that it was Doordash's fault.

    We ordered through Door Dash. The food was very sloppy. The order was incorrect. And they sent a bag of chips for 3 orders which would be equivalent to what one would send in a grade-schooler's lunch. I called the restaurant and was informed that, since I ordered through Door Dash, it was not their problem while admitting that they had prepared the food. We will never order from them again. They do not take responsibility for their food.

    Chicken Flautas
    Sunny D.

    We have been to Agave many times, and we always enjoy it. The outdoor seating is nice when the weather cooperates, and the staff is friendly. At this visit we had the Mexican Pizza and Chicken Flautas. I would probably have rated a 3.5, but it's definitely not a 3 and 1/2 stars aren't an option....so 4 it is! Love that the Flautas were nice and crispy, and plenty to share! The chicken was pretty dry and not a lot of flavor, but we dipped it in the queso blanco and put some Cholula hot sauce on it, and that gave it good flavor! The Mexican pizza was a wee bit soggy, but I think mainly because there's so much good stuff on it that the tortilla base wasn't strong enough enough to crisp up. We will order it again for sure! Wash that down with a tasty beverage, and you've got a lovely meal!

    Chip  & salsa, they should bottle it.

    I love Mexican food and was looking for a place to eat on our drive home. This popped up. I'm so glad it did. Now my new favorite Mexican restaurant.

    My delicious burrito, topped with Shrimp, green salsa and cheese sauce!

    Wow! This place is amazing! Thanks to the reviews of other Yelpers...we found Agave Fresh Mex and Cantina, when we were searching for Mexican food during SpeedWeeks. Agave was a little out of our way, but it was worth the drive and worth the wait once we arrived. We enjoyed the chips and salsa while we waited for our meals to arrive, and a jumbo margarita, too. We had fantastic service, our server recommended their most popular burrito (which I can't remember the name), that was covered in cheese sauce, and topped with grilled shrimp and green salsa. It was out of this world. I cannot wait to go back!

    Chicken Nachos
    Jason B.

    Omg this plate is massive had I known it was this large I would've split it with my brother. I do believe it's the largest nacho plate I've ever seen. It took a little longer for our orders to come out than what it should've but it was pretty good none the less. They also had 2 for 1 margaritas going on so that was pretty awesome. I have noticed that the margarita sizes are half what they were a year so so that sucks

    Fresh chips and salsa.
    Karen F.

    Very good Mexican food. The place is huge, with plenty of booths and tables, decorated in what I now consider to be standard "Hey, you're in a Mexican restaurant!" decor. Our first visit the waiter was excellent, however, this last visit our waiter always seemed to be behind, and could never catch up. Both visits, however, the food has been delicious. The first time I had a taco salad, and this latest visit I had chicken fajitas. The order had a ton of chicken, which was awesome, although they could have been more generous with the half a teaspoon of guacamole they provided. My Mom's enchiladas came out not hot enough, and they were quick to take it back and re-make her a new plate. Margaritas are not cheap, but very delicious. If you don't mind bar tequila, house margaritas are 2 for 1 for happy hour. Your better bet is to get the 2 for 1 sangria at happy hour. Large dinner portions combined with non-stop fresh chips and salsa, means you'll leave fat and happy.

    I used to go all the time, but went today and the quality of food in my opinion has gone down. It wasn't terrible but it wasn't delicious.

    Great food, great atmosphere. Not cheap, but worth every penny. The appetizers are large enough for a meal.

    Since it was our first visit, I assumed we would be ordering from the menu items I had seen on…read moreYelp. We later learned that those offerings are available only during dinner service. Regrettably, our visit did not meet expectations based on previous reviews. Lunch is served exclusively outdoors and features a more limited menu. While it was a different experience than we expected, the beautiful oceanfront setting more than made up for it. Cast & Crew is inside the Renaissance Hotel. Valet parking is complimentary for up to 4 hours. The Maine Lobster BLT was generously filled with sweet, tender chunks of lobster, which was a bit under seasoned. The bacon was really tough to chew. The fries were wonderfully crispy and the perfect side. The Floral Tides was a refreshing cocktail made with gin, Eldeflower, agave, and lemon I'd love to return and experience the dinner menu to provide a more complete and balanced review.

    This place is a true hidden gem. From start to finish, the experience was impressive, the food was…read moreoutstanding, and the service elevated it even further. Our servers name was Greg; he knew everything about the menu and gave honest suggestions. We opted for the chef's 5-course tasting menu ($85). The portions are smaller, each dish is thoughtfully crafted and surprisingly filling. The drinks are easily some of the best I've had. Sitting at the chef's table added a unique, interactive element to the evening and felt like great value for the price. The only area that didn't quite match the rest was the ambiance, which could use a bit more effort. Still, the quality of the food and overall experience more than make up for it. I'd definitely return.
