    Special lunch #3  enchilada, taco, rice and beans
    Judy M.

    Tried it today for lunch. We were seated immediately, but we were not acknowledged for at least 15 minutes. It was 12:30, so the lunch crowd was hopping. Chips were very greasy, nothing like the time before when we came for an early dinner! Salsa was the same, but the cheese dip was very thin. My friend had the lunch steak fajitas, and I know he chewed on the last bite for 5 minutes. Finally, spit it into his napkin, saying it was too tough to chew. My special lunch #3 was pretty bland. Pictures of both below. It was way louder today, not only people but the music was pretty cranked, making it kinda hard to talk. I'm sure we will be back, just maybe not at lunch!

    The flies wouldn't leave us alone.

    Excellent food with a horrible fly problem.

    Soft tacos are to die for.

    Something big is taking place in Lilburn and Agavero Cantina Parkside is a part of it. And yes . . . Its authentic Mexican food at it's best. The atmosphere mimics Park Tavern at Peidmont Park but on a smaller scale. The best place to sit is upstairs on the new deck where you have an awesome view of the park. When the COVID-19 restrictions minimize, you can hear live music while enjoying drinks and food. This place is truly fantastic! The beautiful staff treat you like family too.

    Just veggies.

    the wait was 25 min on a Tuesday night I had so little meat on my fajita and I was told there was nothing I could do about it. Host and hostess seemed to be drunk. My "Texas Fajita" was really 84% veggies and 16% meat. It's okay I guess.

    Agavero was DELICIOUS from the skinny margs, cheese dip, to the Doritos Taco that we couldn't get enough of! It's in the park, great atmosphere. Family friendly. Owner came up and spoke to us which I always love! You can't go wrong here. We will be back!

    Great food, great setting, great staff. Who could ask for more? Also, the best veggie and vegan options of any Mexican restaurant around.

    Last time I went, I had the Enchiladas de Cesina, which is two grilled, shredded…read morecitrus-marinated-steak enchiladas topped with a green cream sauce (tomatillo, avocado, and cilantro for sure...couldn't figure out what else), cheese, and finely chopped red onions; white rice with veggies; and green beans sautéed with garlic, butter(?), and onions. i think this might be my new favorite dish. Not at TLH, but PERIOD. It was that good. (I'll have to think about it a bit, but it's definitely in the top 5.) My single complaint: it wasn't hot. It was warm, but not hot. Didn't make it any less wonderful, but I would have liked it a little warmer. The meat was perfectly cooked and lean. The green sauce was extremely tasty. The rice was nice and buttery. The green beans with onions might actually have been the best thing on the plate, or maybe I was just in the mood for sautéed green beans. For my appetizer, I picked esquite, which is basically Mexican street corn (elote) cut off the cob. It came "separated," meaning that they didn't mix it together; I got a HEAP of corn, some mayo, some crumbled cheese, and chili powder, and mixed it to my own favorite ratio. I didn't get a picture because I was too busy eating it. Server was very attentive and I didn't have to wait at all for anything.

This isn't a date night spot (even though it should be), aesthetically speaking. But if you and your loved one wants a quick and delicious meal at an affordable price point, this is your place. Pay at the counter, get your number, and they'll bring it to you within less than 5 minutes. Except, they'll sometimes simply call your number in Spanish and only Spanish. I've made it clear that I'm not fluent in Spanish and they're trying to incorporate more English since they'll get a diverse crowd from time to time. Or, ya know, go back to just bringing my food to my number! This is bang for your buck! Dare you to compare any fast food dollar for dollar to here and tell me who fills you up more.

If you come during a busy time, finding a seat might be difficult but it is well worth the effort.

This is actually one of the few places that I actually felt improved in recent years which is the opposite of what you usually tend to see over time. One big plus is that their hours are longer and they are open for more days than they used to be (they used to be closed 2-3 days of the week for reference). If there is a downside compared to older years, I'd say the service has declined slightly and staff can be a little unattentive at times, but still wouldn't say that it's bad. Good amount of seating both indoors and outdoors. They will always bring you a basket of chips and salsa to start with. And unlike most other places, they are actually GOOD quality and they give you a sizeable portion to start so you're not constantly asking for chip refills. And they have no issues giving those to you as well. Menu is on the smaller side, but you can't go wrong with one of their tacos. Tried a few and have yet to have a bad experience. A few years back I occasionally had some issues with the tacos being burnt but haven't this happen again in recent visits. One thing I also really like is the rice and beans they give you with the tacos. While that may be a standard for any mexican joint, the rice has a bit of cheese mixed into it and is done very well. Perfect to add into any taco or enjoy on its own. The drinks are pretty on-point as well. Although the tacos may not look that big on initial glance they will definitely fill you up especially if you opt for their sour cream and guac, which were both done very well. Overall, this is probably my favorite spot for Mexican in the area, and I'll keep coming back every time I visit GA.
