    Came here to try the food before they close permanently on Jan.31st. I was able to grab a seat at the bar after waiting about 20mins. I ordered the scallops with collards and grits. Everything was delicious. Sad to see them go.

    This is the last time we'll be able to enjoy Agave but everything was wonderful! The swordfish special with mashed potato and broccolini. The garlic spinach was so tasty. Shrimp egg rolls, street corn and cesar salad! Everything was so tasty! I had a very well mixed old fashion. I hope the owners will find a way to open a new place/concept and continue the wonderful service, atmosphere and food that we've grown to love!!!

    I love the spot. I am so disappointed it's going to close soon so I went back and visited it. This time I tried the mussels and the tuna tartar and both are excellent dishes. Do check it out before they close for Good.

    Agave was a lovely surprise. My friends and I popped in on a Friday night, 30 min before they closed. I was nervous that the food wouldn't be good or they would rush us but my experience was the complete opposite. The staff were so friendly and accommodating. I ordered the crawfish pasta and OMG it was so good! I also gave the bartender full creative control on crafting a mocktail and she did not disappoint. I will definitely go back to check out additional menu items.

    I've been to this restaurant a couple of years ago it's been a minute. I live in the area not to far from here now maybe like 15 minutes so I had to go back here and try something I didn't have before from here. First time I visited I got the Cayenne chicken with the mashed potatoes. It's vallet parking here and the food is delicious and it's a bar for those who want to drink. I got the shrimp rolls and a fried lobster tail and street corn and I received the complentary chips with salsa. I also got the chef's strawberry cheesecake and I tried the chocolate mousse for dessert. I ate some food for dinner and I saved the rest for breakfast on 1-2-2026. Pull up and check them out. Sadly they are closing on 1-31-2026.

    I've been coming here for 25 years on and off and recently started back. The restaurant was slammed and Justin did a great job putting up with us! Everything was 10/10. Solid authentic restaurant with amazing margaritas. Sad to see them go!

    The restaurant was great. The ambiance was fun and romantic. The food was good. I had the chicken soup and the gulf shrimp. The service was top notch. I came in with some friends. It was the restaurant 25th anniversary.

    It's been once three years since I've been in Georgia. I have always wanted to try this place. Never thought I could afford it. Today I had dinner with one of my friends from my neighborhood and it was a lovely experience. Let's start with complementary valet and a warm welcome when I walked in. There are three cool rooms in this establishment one with the Bar and two other ones to Jason for dining. We were in the flat room which was nice and cozy. The atmosphere was lively and everyone seems to be out. All the plates came out quick and the food looks amazing. I ordered the Caesar salad that I've been craving and haven't found a good one yet for now and the quesadilla. The Dino sitting suggested the blunt orange margarita Which sounded delicious, but it lacked luster. Very watery and barely taste it like a margarita. I should've stuck with my traditional margarita or just a couple shots tequila instead. All the food was yummy ! Our servers name I can't remember maybe her name is Brianna ? She was amazing. Food came out fast. The quesadillas for room temperature, but yet delicious. The homemade hot sauce was Tasty not very hot at all. An overall great experience !! Next time I will definitely try that fried chicken. It looks amazing. I just wasn't hungry enough!

    Agave Restaurant is located in Cabbage Town at 242 Blvd SE Atlanta, GA 30312 This is a family owner established. On 7/6/2024 Health Score is 89 = B Our servers were Anderson and Helena they both were very, very, very welcoming, friendly, and accommodating. We ordered the Watermelon Margarita, the Enchiladas and the Rio Grande Burrito. The food was seasoned well and so delicious. The presentation was also very nice. The restaurant ambiance was a little dark for me. But the overall vibe offered music piping through the speakers and a cozy feeling. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to my family and friends. It's was the Rio Grande Burrito for me.

    Enchiladas
    Nicole P.

    The hidden gem of cabbagetown! I really should make a weekly reservation at this point. The food is so ridiculously good. Chips and salsa come but don't fill up... save room for dinner. The enchiladas are the same price as a burrito at any local chain... so it's a no brainer for us! And service is always so friendly. And personal. You leave feeling like family. The outside front is great for a cocktail (car and people watching). i wish they'd have dinner service on those patio tables!!! Oh and the spicy pb pie isn't overly spicy and a great dessert selection!

    Dessert Sampler

    Dinner with friends for a birthday and it's a Saturday night. Luckily we have a reservation and we are sat right away! Chips and salsa to start and I enjoyed my Peachtree Margarita! There were 9 of us and our server, James, took care of us well! Ask for him! Almost all of us got the Medallions - but all a little different! It was quite tasty and those onion rings - those alone should be a side or an app, YUM! We also got the dessert sampler (we were celebrating a birthday after all)! And it was so good! I would take the strawberry compote from the cheesecake and put it on the peanut butter pie - DEEEEELICIOUS! Highly recommend!

    Diablo Crawfish Pasta
    Tiffani C.

    4.7/5 Food: Came here for a friend's bday dinner, everyone ordered a margarita and they were delicious and strong. The Diablo crawfish pasta was very tasty but it was kind of strong on the mushrooms (beware if you don't like them). The crab cakes were pretty good, they had a lot of crab and were nice and moist. My friend really enjoyed the scallops, especially the greens that come with the meal. Lastly, my other friend who had the chicken enjoyed the meal a lot. She described it as a deconstructed KFC bowl but with more flavor lol. Service: Our waiter was very nice and patient and the food came out very quickly. There were a few moments where we needed him but he was no where to be found. Not a complete ruin of the experience tho, his personality made up for it lol. Ambience: Very cozy inside and they are able to accommodate fairly large parties. They have street parking and valet parking, but the lot is pretty limited from what I could see.

    Ask the Community - Agave Restaurant

    Hi! Is takeout available this weekend?

    Sorry, no. We have decided to solely focus on the sold out restaurant as our small kitchen can’t handle both in the final two days.

    I forgot to book a reservation? Do we HAVE to have one for a party of 4? Hoping to get in once more before they close.

    Yes Ma’am. Agave is sold out until the first week of January. Thanks so much!

    Can I tap to pay?

    Yes, at the terminal with a server. Thanks so much!

    What's the dress code like?

    Casual

    Is outside seating available?

    No. There's "patio" dining, but it's still indoors with open air ceilings around its walls borders. This area is very cool, because of the open air wall borders, and above head ceiling fans. It's really nice. It feels like an adobe.

    Can they accommodate a party of 20?

    This isn't a very roomy restaurant. Most of the seating spaces are rather close/tight. If I took a guess, I would say probably not comfortably.

    Is there a Happy Hour here?

    Yes, at the bar - which had limited seating.

    I'm taking my girlfriend for her birthday is it better to sit outside or upstairs?

    Depends on if it's you and her , if it is upstairs will be kool but I also like the patio as well.

Its characterized by its opulent atmosphere that sets the mood for an enchanting night. The entire experience from the service to the delectable dishes are very well executed. One of the things that I enjoyed the most was the eye for detail. From the host stand to the dining room, nothing was out place and you could see the contemporary blends of Mexican Artesanía. Although I enjoyed every dish my favorite bites where the steak tartar & the carne asada that is paired with bone marrow. The dishes are cleverly crafted, it's not hard to tell that a lot of work was put into curating the menu. The drinks are just as as delectable. Their mixologist deserves a gold star! To my enjoyment they even provided me with a stand for my purse which was very much appreciated. The service was flawless! As for the rooftop, it's absolutely captivating with a skyline view of the city. They hold multiple events throughout the month that are both vivacious and festive with a striking assembly of beautiful people. Perfect to meet hot new singles in the city! Highly recommend for a girls night out. There are many photo worthy spots throughout the restaurant that would be perfect for photographs to fit your social media needs or just a great pic to commemorate a bewitching evening. They offer complimentary parking which is always a plus not to have that extra cost to my dining experience. Dress code is high end, polished attire. I definitely plan on coming back for both the dining experience and the rooftop parties, as I have a couple cocktail dresses that I'm dying to wear. Palo Santo has truly impressed me and can't wait to be back!

I arrived at this establishment at 7:27pm on Thursday, Sept 30 to do an Uber eats delivery. I had two orders, one was ready as soon as I arrived and the other they said would be 20-25 minutes. I usually don't wait that long but it was the last trip of the night for me and usually time flies. I go back in 3-4 times, and they're still saying the food isn't ready. When I walked back in for the second time at 8:00pm they said give them 30-45 seconds they're bagging up the order. Then the person giving people the orders stated, "oh you're still here for that erika order.. here we forgot to give you the other part of it"... well I see you all don't check the full order before sending it out. 8:27 rolls by... 8:45 rolls by and I finally get the food order. Remind you it was only 9 items they ordered 2 tacos, a quesadilla, nachos and a drink, etc. nothing crazy and it took 1 hour and 30 minutes! Nearly 2 hours to distribute the food to the delivery driver, ME! This is absurd and awful customer service. I was not offered a drink for my wait time, the manager didn't come out and apologize for the inconvenience, nothing. Just ridiculous tbh, a person from another establishment was more helpful than them. Also, what turned me off this experience was other people everytime I walked in were getting refunds! & I understand it's 30 other establishments within that one building, but it was specifically for Birria- ATL each time. That's the problem! They'll never get my money.. I rather starve than wait 20 years for some tacos and Mexican food. Hard to support a black owned business with awful customer service like this one. Smh. I didn't end up leaving until 8:45 I got there at 7:27pm.. so you make your decision on if you want to try this monstrosity of a place! Ps- the hostess/receptionist guy says this happens everyday, they're backed up daily. Maybe it's time to close down, rethink that business plan and start over from scratch cause this isn't the business for you if customer service and timelessness are not your top 2 priorities when running a FOOD/hospitality business.
