    Enchilada quesadilla
    Victoria A.

    I love this spot. It's right in front of my neighborhood and it's just easy and quick. The food isn't the best but it's great enough for my Mexican food fix. The staff is always so quick and so friendly. Good usually comes out within minutes of ordering. The drinks are always ice cold and the ambiance is fun. It is always packed too which means everyone loves it! Our favorite server is Keila! She is fantastic and so loving.

    The fajita quesadilla was great. The margarita was good, and strong. The chips and salsa... eh... tasted a little weird to be honest, but I liked it. It was different, but really good. Service was fast and really friendly. Ambiance was just your typical Mexican restaurant. Clean, not super busy or anything. Absolutely can't complain.

    Soggy chicken quesadilla

    Disappointing. Food here is usually solid, but not today. Started out with a cup that was crackled and leaking. Then both of our dishes came out a soggy mess. Couldn't finish either dish - soggy tortillas are .

    It's great if you want fast food: but it gave my son and husband food poisoning twice. Best part about the place is its drink menu.

I tried the Pollo a la Pina which is chicken shrimp and pineapple. The chicken was super tender and very flavorful. My husband's nachos were good, he said it was nice having plenty of chicken for each nacho. For a Sunday afternoon, it was busy but not loud and obnoxious like most places so we really enjoyed our visit.

It's really just the big glass light sculpture over the bar that reminds me of a Chihuly art. We started with some queso with chorizo and the free chips and salsa. I had a soda and my brother got a margarita. For entrees we had the chicken and shrimp fajitas and the enchiladas. Everything was good, but pretty standard. The reason I mention that is because the bill after tax and tip was over $80 which I had a little sticker shock over. I know they are trying to be a nicer option and food costs have gone up, but that seemed pretty high for what we got. During the meal, our service was excellent... so much so that we noticed and commented on how on point our server was. My brother mentioned that he hoped she didn't screw it up by being nowhere to be found when the meal was done and that's exactly what happened. I think she may have actually left the building because we never saw her again. Eventually we got someone else to get a togo box and get the check. For that kind of money, I expected better.

    Hey there, it's been a while so I thought I'd post my lunch today…read more I'm not even sure if this is the right location, but I'm at Agaves Cantina on 17A where the old Sol used to be. Greeted with a smile and sat immediately. The infamous chips and salsa placed on the table. Did I mention I'm meeting a friend for lunch and I'm 45 minutes early??? FORTY FIVE MINUTES!! Which only means I'll eat all the table chips and salsa while deciding what to have for lunch..the menu looks great! I mean, who doesn't like Mexican food..even after spending the whole month of February going between Cozumel and Costa Maya...I will never get tired of Mexican food.. of course I ordered a Dos Equis with a lime..it's soooo good!! I need up ordering the golden tacos with rice and bean..it was good! I only wish it was served hotter..it was warm but not hot. Still tasted great! My friend ordered the chicken fajita burritos...she said yummy!! The music reminds me of walking around Cozumel...the only thing that would make it better was if we were overlooking the ocean...I'll be back for sure!!

    We had an appointment in next on and decided to give Agaves Cantina a try. This is a new location…read moreand we love the food at the other Agaves around town. We walked in and was greeted right away and seated at a booth. The waitress came up almost immediately with Chris and salsa and took our drink orders. And it was not long and she was delivering our food. Fresh and hot to the table. The food was absolutely delicious. As always they are high on our lists of great restaurants. If I had to find a complaint it would have to be the music was too loud. You should never have to ask the waitress to repeat herself many times due to loud music.
