The ambiance strikes that perfect balance between intimate and energetic, making it ideal whether you're out for a relaxed night or celebrating something special. What really stood out, though, was the bartender's skill. You can tell immediately you're in good hands--knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely passionate about what they're doing. Every drink was crafted with precision and creativity, and the recommendations were spot on. It's rare to find a place that nails both atmosphere and service at this level, but BABs Secret Lounge absolutely delivers. Definitely a spot I'll be coming back to.

This is NOT a cocktail bar. It's a sports bar that serves cocktails. There's a pool table and dart board. The music is loud and there's sports in the tv.

A server came to take our orders and offered suggestions on what we should order. We got the bread board, which is amazing and offers sweet bread with this really nice butter. We also ordered several items off of the happy hour menu, including the beef jerky and the wings. They also have a nice selection of drinks on happy hour, including wine, margaritas, and several other mixed drinks. Plate is fairly new to Carrollwood and it's a beautiful space. We all really enjoyed and would definitely return.

I'd try to slip in earlier during happy hour to beat most of the crowd because it started getting pretty packed on our way out. Our server Demetrius was very attentive and knowledge about the menu even making sure to include some of his personal favorites into the recommendations. He also offered to bring us more chips for our queso once we ran low. I really wanted the craftsmanship of a cocktail without the alcohol and fortunately they offer a non-alcoholic tequila alternative that can be used in any of their drinks. For my meal I had the island jerk tacos which surprisingly had a really good jerk flavor, the simple chicken taco, and the OTC street corn. This place was clean, friendly, and overall a great vibe!

The margaritas with the salt foam are incredible and absolutely a must-try! It's the sister restaurant to another favorite of ours, Shaker & Peel, and you can definitely tell they have the same great attention to quality and atmosphere. We usually grab seats at the bar, where the service is always friendly, attentive, and top-notch. The vibe is energetic without feeling overwhelming, making it a great place to hang out. We can't wait to come back when the weather cools off so we can enjoy their huge outdoor patio. If you're looking for a great place for drinks, appetizers, and a fun atmosphere, Agave Social should definitely be on your list. Five stars!

This was our first time visiting this restaurant. We visited for a birthday celebration…read more We started off with pimento cheese board and ahi tuna appetizers. Pimento cheese is a fond childhood memory, so I had to try it. Very good! My husband ate all the tuna before I could try it! The complimentary bread with herbed butter was phenomenal! There were five of us at dinner. Each of us ordered either the scallops or the filet. The filet was truly the most tender steak I've ever eaten. Service was efficient. Not overly personable, not rude. My only negative feedback for this restaurant is that it is definitely somewhere you go for an experience or date night, not if you're hungry. I'm fine with paying a premium for good food but I shouldn't leave hungry. Plates that cost $60 per plate should fill me up and come with a salad, in my opinion. It was a nice experience.

I love that. The new owners are doing a great job of keeping the original flavor of the restaurant, while also adding their own flair. My only concern is that the "green dip," they offer at the start of the meal was missing this last time. I understand it may or may not be brought back. I'll be honest, the Green Dip is 80% of the reason I go to Brix. It is so phenomenal that it pulls me back again and again. It that change is permanent, I'm not sure I'll be back as frequently. Bring back the Green Dip!!

I had vegan stir fry with tofu that was pretty good and green goddess sold was great as well. We also enjoyed healthy kids menu option.
