    The first experience wasn't the best. My friend had a drink, I got a beer & we left. The second experience much better. Craft beer was nice, two I enjoy on draft. The Oaxacan was delicious. The ceviche was fresh, filling, & flavorful. Food was pretty timely. Service was welcoming (this time). Sat at the bar both times. Fun atmosphere. Outside dining. Restroom was clean.

    Blue Agave is located in the heart of Downtown Vero on 14th Ave. It was founded in 2014 by one of the Downtown Boys. They are a group of childhood friends that attended St. Helen's Catholic school and who went on to own several of the businesses in downtown Vero. Ian Mock opened Blue Agave with partner Rich Nelson who already owned two other Blue Agave's, Mexican Taco and Tequila bars in Rio de Janeiro. The atmosphere of Blue Agave is fun and casual. I was drawn in at dinnertime by the amazing smells emanating down the sidewalk. When I walked in the place the restaurant was already pretty full but by the time I left it was standing room only. Inside the restaurant is a central bar and high tops and tables. A wrestling match was being shown on the TV. Outside were two more tables. I liked all of the cute decorations and pictures they had around the restaurant. I started with the Gran Raspberry margarita made with infused El Jimador Silver Tequila, Grand Marnier Peach Raspberry, Fresh Raspberry, and Fresh Sour. The drink arrived rimmed in sugar as requested and it was strong. It was one of the best margarita's I have ever had. The menu is arranged by soups and appetizers, nachos and chips, burritos, tacos, quesadillas, salads, entrees, burgers, and sides. After a few sips of my cocktail I was more than ready for the carne asada burrito I had ordered. It took a really long time to get my burrito and the first bite revealed the beans that I had requested they leave off. Fortunately they got another one out to me quickly and they even added more steak in it. I really enjoyed it but I wish it came with chips and salsa. I would have ordered some if I had known it was just going to be the burrito. I guess I should have read more closely. In any case despite a few hiccups I really enjoyed my visit here, especially that margarita. I would stop back in the next time I am in the area.

    Churro bites.  Carmel dipping sauce.  Perfectly cooked

    What a great find - thanks Yelpers! Ask for Nicole - she's a terrific waitress and can send you in the right direction for food. Margaritas were great, good pour and tasty! We asked for chips with no salt and they made them straight up for us! Wow! Hot, tasty and the salsa and guacamole were very flavorful without burning off my mouth. Our table had burrito's- excellent and two of us took half home - and quesadillas were delicious. Burritos were a good size and plenty of meat. Dessert, Nicole recommended the churro bites and they were out of this world! Hot, sweet and chocolate in the middle. Light and fluffy and great Carmel dipping sauce. Yum! Place was busy with a good crowd, you can eat at the bar with ease. Plenty of parking in the back and on the street. If you are in Vero, make a stop here, it's worth it!

    Still great! The food, service and drinks were on point! If you're in the area, stop in. You won't be sorry.

    We only came in for drinks but after speaking with our server we would definitely like to come back and try the food. He said there are specials everyday and looking at the board they sounded great. We just ordered chips and salsa with guacamole because it was late. The Blue Agave Margarita was disappointing as it had very little heat. We switched to skinny margaritas with Silver Patron and they were great! We will be back next time we are in Vero to try out the food.

    It had been awhile since we'd eaten here so thought we'd poke in and revisit for dinner. The indoor temperature was really warm and even though we were all in shorts, we found ourselves sweating through the entire meal. It was 30 minutes from the time we were seated before the waiter took our food order. It was another 30 minutes before food was delivered to our table. It's disappointing that unlike most authentic Mexican restaurants, that this establishment does not offer a complimentary bowl of salsa and basket of tortilla chips while waiting for your meals. If you want that here, it's an a-la-carte item for $4. I also don't like the fact that entrees don't automatically come with a dollop of sour cream. Yep, that would be a $1 upcharge as well. What Mexican restaurant doesn't give you a little spoonful of sour cream with your dish? The large mango habanero margarita was good with adequate alcohol content. Price tag $18. Our server was very friendly, but service was terribly slow. The food itself was just average. Nothing that makes this place stand out. The prices are moderate, but again that's only for an entree which comes with no sides unless ordered separately a-la-carte. There is only one or two main entrees on the menu that do include sides and the priced as such. Overall, this restaurant could improve with faster service from the kitchen and lowering the indoor temperature for a more comfortable setting during meals. It would also be helpful if they had a website where their menu can be viewed along with other helpful information. Little changes like courtesy chips and salsa and a splash of sour cream with entrees would be a plus!

    Popped in on a whim. Its in a fun location where there are a number of other establishments to choose from. The atmosphere has a bar feel but is very comfortable. Prices are fair and the food was very good. Taco prices are comparable to Taco Dive as well which is within walking distance. Definitely worth a visit.

    Dinner here last night was very nice. The ambiance is more that of a bar or cafe than a restaurant, but that's ok. The chips and guacamole were delicious and the portion size was generous. The main offerings on the menu are tacos...albeit several different varieties. My party of four had carnitas tacos, fish tacos, stuffed mushroom, and chicken. What I like is that this is not the sort of Mexican with a lot of sauce, rice, beans and melted cheese that all winds up tasting the same. The food here is much more authentic.

    Ginormous burrito. My son could not finish it. Absolutely delicious

    If you are craving authentic Mexican food with a flare of creativity. You need to go to blue Agave. What makes them special is that everything is made from scratch that day. Their chips are freshly made and all of their tequila is infused with different flavor fruit. Right away you will taste the difference.. We highly recommend blue Agave.

Bring David back please! The two short chunky ladies that work here now during the day in the week each time we go here are so bad, bad attitudes, bad service, and they seem to be filled with hate or something, just very bad service. And then we get sick after eating here the past 3-4 times now. It will hurt this place. Anyway, we will not eat here anymore. We cannot afford to be sick after each time we go here to eat. Too, the last time they charged us for more salsa, which they never did before, we had to wait so long for our food, all the salsa was gone with the chips, and then they charged for more. This restaurant has gone down the tubes, be careful eating here, I hope no one else is sick with with the flu or teeth aches after eating here, it says online it is due to Ciguatera fish poisoning, maybe they are putting it in our water or food, the water does always smell odd here lately. Anyway, please be careful. I hope the owner gets rid of these bad ladies before people stop eating here.

It's also sort of on the ghetto side which is super appealing to me The building is small and very easy to overlook. Thankfully the outside is painted orange so that it stands out. Outside they have a nice area to sit and eat with lots of shade and trees and they even have a stray cat that's hanging out looking for pets and food. This cat made the entire experience much better. She was even purring. The inside of the store is a grocery store of some sort well I have treats and drinks and miscellaneous things inside. If you go to the back you can order food there's a sign that shows the different plates they offer. I saw that they had the Tex-Mex taco so of course I got a Tex-Mex version and a regular Taco so I can compare the two. The lady who took my order answered all my questions about what was going on. You pay at the register and then pick up your food outside when they call it out to you. The food itself was really good. The taco shells had an interesting texture where was all flat. I'm betting that they're made somewhere close by. The tacos had a good amount of meat of them it was very filling. It was mostly the style where it's a lot of meat and a little bit of veggies. The bathrooms look like they recently had a makeover it seemed clean enough that I could go potty. I can't wait to get back here and try some of the other items on their menu. And their food is also priced at a very fair price compared to others around town.

One of the best meals i've had from restaurant in couple years beside a few my favorite spots in my hometown and surrounding area of Farming, CT. Fresh, Friendly, local. That is how after two different visits while in town the past 2 weeks is how I would describe this place in 3 words. Niko was Great - He made our experience that much more on both times we stopped in as well as even the 2 different employees who handed us our meal. This was so nice to experience especially from a "Counter Service" style joint. My 3 Tacos were so good, fresh, and we were recommended to try their WTF taco which is always nice to venture outside of my normal chicken or fish routine especially being that tasty. (I got this both visits it was so good) My husband is still talking about what we want to try on our next visit down. They even had some yummy soft serve ice cream that was perfect after our Tacos and my husbands burrito bowl. I have read some reviews saying 'Hole in the wall' but I think "Not so secret, hidden gem" I think suits this place a little better. On both of our visits they seemed to have a steady flow of customers especially our first night when there was a line out the door at 7 on Saturday night which actually was our sign to maybe check them out. We are so happy we did, and can't wait for next visit.
