    Menu Blu Agave
    Ronda D.

    This Mexican restaurant located in the heart of downtown Gahanna was a nice treat today! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The cool plants on the ceiling and music was a nice touch.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our waiter greeted us with a nice hello And smiled! I got a chimichanga with black beans and rice, my husband got chicken, cheese with tortillas. Everything was delicious. I usually like to get a margarita when I come to a place like this, but wow! They were expensive at this place. I skipped it this time.

    I feel like our experience was ok, nothing stood out as super amazing (other than the guac) but nothing was too awful. We had to ask multiple times for extra salsa bowls to eat the guacamole and the server wasn't very attentive despite the restaurant not being very busy. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The inside was very lively, not at all the typical Mexican restaurant look.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Bar and highendish wall of wine!

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]This restaurante Mexicano off the St. Rt 62 strip is en fuego serving its authentic fare in a comfy, upscale suave.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The second store spun off the casa madre in New Albany, it occupies the space of a former Panera, leveling up the environment to a romantic sleek with perfect ambient lighting, clean booths, and a rustic patio.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Plastic vines drape the dinning room like MC's Ling Ling. Latino music filled the air in various South American styles at perfect volume[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. The bar is specially impressive: a wide and long bottom-lit span of earthy crème and white suggesting the colors of the Mexican desert where the Blue Agave grows, the succulent from which tequila is fermented. We came on a noon Thursday after my girlfriend was stressing and needed an escape. We were greeted by a very friendly staff and selected the eye candy of the bar to sit. TV screens above, high-end bottles glistering from the chandeliers behind, and a wall of wine closed off the world and created the sanctuary for which we had searched. The food did not disappoint. Choosing from the lunch menu (served 11:00AM - 3:00PM) I selected Enchiladas Verdes: chicken filled with green tomatillo and sauce--I sensed serrano, garlic, and cilantro--with fried rice as a side ($10.49). This was superb. It tasted so rich and expertly made with the perfect spice balance for my palate. My g/f selected the Speedy Gonzales ($10.49). Named after the classic WB cartoon mouse, it comprises of a taco, a enchilada with two sides--she picked beans. She downed the combo with a fresh Margarita which she flipped for. The menu is worth a check. It has all the Mexican fare. The service is is superb, on-point. The salsa nd chips are plentiful--and the mild spice they gracefully got us was the tops. I recommend this place for a classy lunch or date night. It is the tops.

    I was pleasantly surprised by this Blue Agave location. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The decor is nice and upscale -- chandeliers above the bar, nice cushioned booths, etc.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The menu is extensive and typical of similar Mexican restaurants. All the food was flavorful and fresh -- I was impressed with the fresh-made guacamole and the shrimp quesadilla (good sized, fresh tasting shrimp, which is not always the case in Ohio!). The margarita was good but not very strong (seemed a bit watered down?) and I wished there were options besides the "jumbo" but didn't see those listed in the menu. Server was very friendly, though we did have to ask for some things (didn't have enough menus, not all the food came out at once). I'd probably give 3.5 stars if that was an option, but the food itself was such good quality that a bump to 4 does not seem unwarranted. I'm interested in coming back for lunch.

    First time here on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. We sat on the patio and had a few of their strong house lime and raspberry margaritas. The patio is nice and the inside is nicer. The bar is very big and reminds me of a fancy hotel lobby bar. Service was attentive and efficient. This is a great addition to Gahanna and we will definitely return!

    Good food, friendly people and nice decor. Big Margaritas and fresh chips and salsa. Parking can be a problem.

The tater tots were made perfectly. 4.5/5 - Half pepperoni, half meat lovers. Meat lovers include pepperoni, sausage, bacon, and ham. The pizza was pretty good. 4/5. SERVICE: Fast and friendly. 4/5 FINAL THOUGHTS: I would come back. The food was good and the price is fair.

    The place was very packed when we arrived. The restaurant has two sides, and one side was…read moreespecially busy because there was a game on. That's actually a positive if you're looking for a spot where you can grab food and watch a game at the same time. In general, walking into a restaurant that's full is a good sign, so from the start I had high expectations. We were seated fairly quickly, which was great. However, it did take a while for our waitress to come over and take our order. That part was somewhat understandable, as she appeared to be the only server handling a large number of tables. While that's not her fault, it is a downside from a staffing perspective. Once we finally placed our orders, the food also took a bit longer than expected to come out. When it did arrive, though, it was hot and seemed very fresh. I ordered the loaded tater tots, which came topped with chili and cheese, with sour cream on the side. They were good overall, but I do think the chili could have been better--more meat and a slightly richer, more savory flavor would have gone a long way. We also ordered wings. Aside from a couple that were burnt, the wings were actually quite flavorful and enjoyable. Most of them were cooked well, and the seasoning was solid. The restaurant itself was clean and well maintained, which is always appreciated. The waitress was very kind and polite whenever she did come by, and I think most of the issues we experienced were simply due to how busy the restaurant was at the time. If we were to return during a slower period, I believe the experience would likely be much better overall. Would I recommend going here? Yes--with some caveats. If you're going primarily for the food, I wouldn't necessarily recommend visiting on a busy game night. However, if you're going to watch a game, enjoy the atmosphere, and grab some food at the same time, it's worth giving a try. Hopefully it won't be so busy that things come out rushed or slightly off, like a few items did for us. Overall, the experience was decent. It wasn't amazing, and it wasn't terrible. Aside from a few burnt pieces of chicken, most of the food was flavorful, and the atmosphere made up for some of the shortcomings.
