    I have always dismissed this place because it's in a high crime area, but I am glad I stopped in. It is in what obviously used to be a Denny's or maybe a Shoney's or some kind of diner attached to the motel. I was pleasantly surprised at the menu. They had Birria and other good dishes on the menu. I got the Birria once, and it was pretty good. I have since always gotten the tacos autenticos. They give you 4 fully loaded tacos, the tortillas are the larger kind not the street tacos kind. It also comes with limes and a tomatillo sauce. I am always so full when I am done with it. I was craving some beans and got a side of beans and the portion was huge. It's become a regular spot for me.

    The food is generally good. The drinks are gooderer. Vegetarian selection exists. I believe you've got your standard five options. I'm told the non-vegetarian options are very good. Tuesdays at the moment they've got a comedy music show in the side of the place on a little stage I caught. Was packed the last time I went, probably means he needs a bigger stage but check him out on Taco Tuesdays.

    Came here for a quick bite to eat with my man for Valentine's Day since it's our last night in Nashville. The atmosphere wasn't too great alittle old looking and the service was mid not sure if the server was new but it seemed he was exhausted and over it and mixing things up. He was nice though and did what he could but that wasn't very professional. On the other hand the drinks were decent they had a 2x1 strawberry margarita for 10$ so we got that and I got the carne asada meal. I'm from Florida so the taste wasn't top tier like back home but it was decent just needed alittle more seasoning same with the rice and refried beans. The portions however were great! My man got the birria tacos I had a bite and they were definitely good! We also got a side of fries and he got a side of rice and beans since his tacos didn't come with a side but weirdly had a plate of rice on it when it came out which we weren't aware of since it doesn't say.

    Cute little restaurant with a large parking lot. I was driving a 26' truck and was thankful that it wasn't busy so I was able to park with ease! It's very warm and comfortable inside, quite big too, and the staff are very polite and friendly. I knew instantly what I wanted when I saw the menu online (as carnitas is my favorite!!) and it came quite quickly. The carnitas was crisp and flavorful with a big side of rice and beans. Forgot to mention that the complimentary chips n salsa were great too and came right away. Can't beat the price for a sit down, authentic Mexican experience. If I weren't driving a big truck I would have ordered a margarita too! When I come back to Nashville, I'll be sure to come back!

    I was in town for a conference and stayed at a near by hotel. The coworker that I was traveling with and she suggested Mexican and this place was a quick Uber ride. We were pleasantly greeted and escorted to a dining area to the left of the hostess stand. There was a really loud party of 4 that were seated there and was relieved when some police officers arrived for a meal and were seating in the same area bc the other group was pretty rowdy and I always think of it as a good sign and food is good if officers choose to eat there! Our server was efficient. I got a combo, with an enchilada, taco, rice and beans. The food was fine and reasonable priced. The shredded chicken in my taco and enchilada was pretty average. I also ordered flan for dessert and that was the highlight of my dining experience-it was sooooo good!

    Feed me Mexican food and a Margarita, and I am one happy lady. I have dined at Agave's twice and have been pleased with the service and food quality. My party of three was greeted and seated immediately with a basket of warm tortilla chips and salsa. I usually would order a veggie taco salad, but I wanted to live a little dangerously. So, I ordered the shrimp tacos and a made-to-order (off-menu) passion fruit Margarita. O-M-G, I almost shed a tear with the first bite- it was that good. The food came out hot, and my Margarita was delicious. Highly recommended, and will likely return in the next 30 days.

    Ok so this place used to be another Mexican restaurant named Mazatlan and it was awful and maybe that's why they closed it. The new place is renovated and looking nicer and cleaner. The staff is very friendly and attentive. The food is delicious and the salsa and chips are on point. They have a wide variety of options for food so you can definitely find your favorites. They offer your normal fountain drinks and they also have the Mexican "aguas frescas". They just opened so they do not have their liquor license yet but management said they should have it at the end of the month. Waiting on the state to process their paperwork. They don't have a bar area or outside seating at the moment but management said they will be adding that soon as well. They do have TV's around the restaurant for this football season. Bathrooms are clean. I would definitely recommend!

    We love Agave's!!! The food, service, and atmosphere are great. Pablo always takes such good care of us! We have a few Mexican restaurants closer to us but choose to drive to Agave's because it never disappoints.

    First, I would give this place 4 stars if: The Agave appetizer gave more than a few items to pick from. Very weak compared to their menu. The drink menu for liquor and tequila is decent. They have nothing else desires a small selection of beer. I can drink beer so there are no seltzers or ciders to choose from. Other than those 2 issues, the service and food is fantastic.

My fiancee and dad got the birria tacos they did a pretty good job. I got the skirt steak i believe and it was ok. Tender but not too flavorful. Tasted more just like beef. I believe its marinated but i didnt really get hints of any spices. Again, I'm not saying it was terrible by any means. Just left something to be desired. We also ordered the wueso flameado and that was pretty good. Overall a good place to eat. Would recommend checking it out.

The setup inside is adorable and had a cozy, relaxed vibe from the moment we walked in. Our server, Tom, was absolutely wonderful. He even asked if we had any allergies when ordering, which we really appreciated even though we didn't have any. It honestly showed how much they care about their customers. I don't think I've ever had a restaurant ask that before! He was also super attentive and kept our waters refilled so quickly throughout the meal. One thing we really liked was the atmosphere. We loved all the fun live music spots around Nashville too, but this was a nice change of pace if you're looking for more of a chill, relaxed vibe where you can easily enjoy conversation during dinner. We both ordered the asada tacos and they were SO delicious, exactly what we needed. The rice on the side tasted incredibly fresh too, and the tomato and corn mixed into it were the perfect addition. You could tell everything was made with care. The staff was constantly cleaning tables quickly after guests left, and overall the service was just amazing from start to finish. We had such a wonderful experience and will definitely be coming back next time we're in Nashville!
