I don't take the time to write restaurant reviews as often as I should, but tonight at Miel de Agave was one of those standout experiences that makes you pause and appreciate every detail--so I had to share. The elevated atmosphere struck the perfect balance of upscale and inviting. Party of four--two of us visiting from San Antonio (so yes... we take our Mexican food seriously), and two who were honestly a little hesitant walking in because the menu isn't your typical Tex-Mex lineup. But let me tell you... by the end of the night, everyone was completely sold. We kicked things off with the shrimp aguachile verde, chips, salsa, and fresh guacamole--bright, fresh, and packed with flavor. Every bite felt intentional and elevated. For entrées, we went all in: Sonora taco, green enchiladas, bacanora tacos, and green chili cream enchiladas. Each dish had its own personality and depth--this is not your average Mexican restaurant, and that's EXACTLY what makes it so good. Service absolutely matched the food. Jasmine was incredible--warm, attentive, and genuinely engaged in making sure we had a great experience. Then manager Kevin stopped by personally to check on us, which took things to another level of hospitality. And just when we thought it couldn't get better... dessert. Kevin brought out an off-menu, down-home key lime cheesecake recipe from his mom--paired with fried ice cream--and WOW!! Easily one of the best desserts we've had in a long time. If you're hesitant because it's not "what you're used to," lean into that. This place is authentic, elevated, and absolutely worth it. We'll 100% be back. read more

Me and my family just went here for my 19th birthday and this was genuinely some of the best food I've had in a long time. We got their chips and guacamole and also the pork belly chicharrones to start off and they were both delicious they gave us plenty of guac and the pork belly was citrusy and crunchy. I had their carne asada plate and it was amazing the steak was juicy and flavorful and combined with the guac it was a 10/10 bite. They brought out a free dessert for my birthday and it was the cheesecake which was the best cheesecake I have ever had. Our server was amazing he brought us fresh chips and was super friendly and very helpful. Over all this place is a 10/10 definitely more expensive but well worth it read more

Cocktails AMAZING!!! Starters appetizers AMAZING!!! Main meals AMAZING!!! Service great with one exception we had to keep getting our waiter's attention for water. Ambiance dark with a very romantic touch but what we loved about it being dark, each table had its own bright light perfectly bright to clearly see our meals. Now let's talk about the presentations on the cocktails, incredibly impressive. It's a must video. Each appetizer also has a beautiful presentation along with the main meals. I had the "Me Quiere No Me Quiere" and the Smoke Old Fashion both do incredibly yummy. We started with the Pork Belly, highly recommend it comes with guacamole macha chile and tortillas. We also ordered the Sonoran Shrimp Ceviche, so so fresh and delicious. The " Never Before Rissoto" OMG!!! AMAZING!!! It was our first time there we came from San Diego. Gosh I wish we had a Miel de Agave in San Diego. Highly recommend this restaurant to anyone a definite 10 out of 10. read more

We celebrated with the 3 of us after going there in the past and having a great experience . 1. We were placed in a table right by the servers and bar. High traffic , constantly dodging servers going by as the tables for 4 were small . 2. The manager made no effort to accommodate us to other tables even though there were several available telling us we would have to wait a hour to switch. 3. We ordered drinks and waited 40 minutes until we received them. 4. The food also took a longer than normal. 5. Even getting refills of water took longer and we had to ask repeatedly I. Closing our server was pleasant and apologized for the delays , but clearly the manager didn't have a handle on the lead times and or made any attempt to help expedite or comp us for the delays. Food was decent but not better to similar restaurants Really disappointed. read more

I've heard nothing but good things about Miel de Agave so decided to check it out for my Dad's birthday dinner. To be honest, only 2 things really stood out from this dinner. 1) Their mango margarita 2) Ribeye Aguachile Everything else was just okay. For dinner, I ordered their MDA NY Steak but felt like more than half of it was just fatty pieces. It also came with a chimichurri sauce (which was good) and truffle fries that I just wasn't too impressed with. Overall, food was okay but service was great! I don't know if I would ever comeback... if I do it might just be for their cocktails and apps read more

First time eating here, and will definitely go back! We had a reservation for four of us and were promptly seated by a friendly host! Our server Jazmine was excellent, not over bearing and always checked in at the right time. All the individuals running food and drinks were also great and friendly! The cocktails had fun presentations and the taste was on point. All the food we ordered was perfectly executed! The Short Rib Platter with Bone Marrow was melt in your mouth. We ordered it to share between two of us and had a lot left over as well. It made for excellent repurposed breakfast tacos. Inside is a beautiful atmosphere, just dark enough and lights on each table. It's a smaller space but did not feel overly close to the table next to you. If you're thinking of going here, you won't be disappointed - give it a try! read more

We keep coming back here for a reason. If you are in the East Valley and want a place with a serious tequila program, this is it. Kevin, the manager, runs this place exceptionally well. You can feel it in the consistency, the energy, and the overall experience. What really sets it apart is the tequila selection he curates. He brings in unique, high quality bottles you do not typically see, and it shows a level of care that tequila lovers will appreciate. The Mexico City elote is a must. Packed with flavor and always on point. The Rib Eye Aguachile is one of our go to orders, especially with the quesadillas it comes with. We always add bone marrow on the side and it completes the whole experience. The ribeye was a little overcooked this time, but still good and not a deal breaker for us. Matthew took great care of us. Kind, attentive, and made everything feel easy. We came on a Wednesday and it was packed, so make a reservation. Parking is limited, so Ubering is the best move if you plan to enjoy the tequila. Great spot for a casual night out that still feels elevated. read more

I had had a very stressful week and was in desperate need of a good spicy margarita! Earlier in the week, one of my good good girlfriends passed away and I was devastated. Anyway, I decided to come back here because I remember that their spicy margaritas were off the chain! I'm happy to report that it did not disappoint! In fact, I had two of them and they were quite tasty. I sat at the bar and the service was outstanding. There were several bartenders behind the bar, and it seemed that each one made sure that I was taken care of! Nice touch! I felt seen and heard! Since I was there, I thought I would try the Infamous Quessabirria tacos entrée. OMG! It was fabulous! It comes with two dipping sauces and some charred beans. I thoroughly enjoyed them and so did my husband. I brought the leftovers home to him. The atmosphere of this place is outstanding. I was here on a Friday night at about 5 o'clock and the place was filling up rather quickly! It's dark inside but once you sit down, they bring a cute little lamp over to brighten up your space. All in all I highly recommend this place. It's a hidden gem in the Chandler downtown scene! read more

It's like a chic jungle vibe. Super cute. Service was good. I came here with a friend for lunch. Chips, guac, salsas were good. I got the green chili cream enchiladas. 1 steak 2 chicken... the presentation was nice. The food was not. The steak had a ton of gristle. It wasn't a few bites it was almost every other bite. So I continued with the chicken... the chicken was CUBED. Not seasoned. I couldn't get over how chunky the chicken was and did not continue eating. I definitely do not recommend this dish. I might give another try on a date night in the future. read more

I've got mixed feelings. First, the good: parking was easy, service was super fast, and the inside is really nice. Lots of greenery, elevated lighting, and the whole space has this rainforest-meets-modern vibe that feels thoughtfully designed. The tables and layout definitely make it feel more upscale than your average casual spot. Now the downside... the food came out really fast, like 5-10 minutes after ordering, and honestly it tasted like it. I ordered enchiladas, but it felt more like three tacos with cheese sauce and heavy crema on top. Then instead of rice and beans, it came with what was basically enchilada toppings served as a side salad, which was a little confusing. Also, the ratio of staff to guests was wild. I was the only one there but somehow felt rushed the whole time, which took away from the experience. Overall, the space is beautiful, but the food and overall flow didn't really match the vibe for me. It's cute for the atmosphere, but I'd probably choose somewhere else next time. #fyp #chandlereats #azfoodie #foodreview #thingstodoinphoenix read more

By far, one of my favorite (if not my favorite) upscale Mexican restaurants! So excited to have Miel de agave in Chandler. Ana, our waitress, was so welcoming and attentive.

Decided to try Miel de Agave for late lunch on a Sunday and walked in without a reservation. There were no tables available, although it did not seem too crowded--(No problem though, so friends and I sat at the bar.) We ordered a few apps and got the Sonoran tacos as my entree. Everything from the potato tacos-- to the aguachile was flavorful and delicious. I would describe this place as modern Mexican cuisine. Chic, jungle vibes with low lighting decor! Also service at the bar was friendly and prompt. I will be returning to try other items from the menu! read more

I really wanted to love this place because the food is phenomenal. I had the chicken green chili cream enchiladas, and they were absolutely delicious--easily 5-star quality. However, the rest of the experience was a letdown. We visited on a Saturday afternoon (3/28/26) and the service was frustratingly slow. There seemed to be only one server working the floor while multiple runners just stood around the bar area. The drinks are a total rip-off. I had the Paloma, very refreshing and tasty but could not taste the tequila. The worst part of that, we paid $17+ per cocktail, only to realize there was little to no alcohol in them. Pro-tip: Come for the food, but save your money and grab a drink at one of the many bars down the street in downtown Chandler instead. Or stick to wine & beer. If it weren't for the poor service and the watered-down drinks, this would be a 5 star review. read more

What a pretty restaurant inside. Our waitress was on top of things. We did go for a birthday brunch but they don't serve brunch yet. It said brunch but we ended up with lunch. It was very good the Guacamole Dip was delicious and a large portion. Between the three of us we had a torts, enchiladas and tacos, the Michelada was incredible and the Margarita was served in a pretty glass. The birthday dessert was fun and good. It's not cheap but a great place for a special occasion or a drink at the bar. read more

Hubby and I came here to celebrate our anniversary, and this was a meal that did not disappoint! The inside is the perfect spot for an intimate dinner for 2 or a girls night out with the group. Beautifully decorated, incredibly insta worthy, and an upbeat playlist to keep the vibes going, this was a stunning restaurant. Our server, Oscar, was absolutely fantastic! Very friendly, very attentive. As were the other employees who helped clear plates, kept water glasses full, and offered up complementary mango margarita samples. We started with cocktails and an order of the elote. Hubby's paloma was refreshing and light and my carajillo was perfectly balanced. As an avid espresso martini lover, it was a perfect option for something new that fit the vibe The elote was also wonderful. Grilled corn topped with traditional elote toppings, it was sweet, smoky, spicy, and delicious. For entrees, I had the NY Steak, cooked to a perfect medium with a lovely, herby chimichurri and parmesan truffle fries. The fries were truffle-y but not overdone, something many restaurants struggle to execute well. Hubby had the pasta Bacanora: tender shrimp, wrapped in crispy bacon, served on the most creamy, delicious pasta, with perfectly grilled sourdough bread. We ended the meal with the tres leches cake, which, although it did not need the ice cream, was one of the better tres leches cakes I have had in a while. A delightfully light, spongy cake soaked in a delightfully sweet milk mix. The fresh berries were nice added touch. All in all, we will definitely be back to Miel de Agave! read more

Miel de Agave in Chandler is such a vibe. From the moment you walk in, the energy is fun, lively, and welcoming! It was the kind of place where you can dress up a little, relax, and actually enjoy the experience. I ordered the 12 oz NY steak and WOW. Cooked perfectly, full of flavor, and honestly one of those meals you keep thinking about after you leave. The Parmesan truffle fries were the perfect side. They were so crispy, indulgent, and impossible not to share (but you won't want to). Paired everything with a Reserve Cab red wine, which was smooth and delicious and tied the whole meal together beautifully. The service was amazing, attentive without being overbearing, friendly, and genuinely happy to be there, which makes such a difference. Add in live music, and it just takes the whole night up a notch. Great food, great drinks, great sound, and an atmosphere that feels fun and upbeat without being chaotic. This is the kind of spot that works for date night, girls' night, or just a night out when you want good food, good wine, and good vibes. Miel de Agave definitely delivered & I can't wait to go back. read more

The cocktails are also delicious, although they are on the pricey side. If you're looking for a date night or a night out with the girls, this is the spot! read more

Here's the good, bad, and ugly about this place. We had a Christmas gift card from our kids who heard great things about the food here, so we were excited to try a higher end Mexican restaurant. Food: I have mixed feelings about this. First, I do not recommend the pasta with chicken. My wife got it, and the chicken pieces were obviously processed (uniform size, color, etc) lukewarm, and tough. If you've had those prepared chicken pieces from Costco in the refrigerated section, that's what these are like. Okay for a protein boost for a cold salad, but not actually tasty on their own. Don't be fooled by the grilled chicken breast description. This wasn't freshly cooked. It was more tough and dry, than juicy and flavorful, yet somehow the juices from the chicken soaked into the pasta, and it imparted an unpleasant flavor. They likely cut open a bag and dumped it into the already cooked pasta. The Infamous Birria tacos were juicy and delicious. The sauces were so-so. I've definitely had more flavorful birria consume. There was no cilantro flavor which is good for some people, but I rather enjoy cilantro. The tacos were served with a very small amount of beans which were salty and delicious, but not smokey in case you prefer your charro beans to taste smokey. We also ordered chips and guacamole for an appetizer. The guacamole was delicious and tasted fresh. They brought plenty of guacamole. They didn't bring enough chips and never asked if we wanted more. There was plenty left for the tacos. Service: The service is a mixed bag. The wait staff was quick to refill the water, but we ended up waiting a while for the check. Our waiter never brought out a manager, but he knew we were disappointed with the chicken pasta. He did not offer to comp the meal which basically was wasted. For $28, that leaves a bad taste in your mouth. When it came to paying, they brought out a machine to pay and never offered to print a copy of the receipt. The machine tip starts at 20% which is a bit presumptuous when the service did not deserve it in my opinion. Ambiance: It was okay. The wait staff dressed nicely. The lighting was quite dark. It looked pretty nice. My plate had no fewer than 6 chips, and not the food kind. This is a health code violation according to someone I talked to who worked in culinary. They shouldn't have been using it anymore, but they did. Price: They are trying to be on the fancier side, but they have a long way to go to compete with prime steak houses in terms of a quality experience. They do need to step up their game in my opinion to justify their place. We probably won't be coming back. read more

I've now decided to update my review to 1 star. I've let a couple of months pass to see if management would respond and offer an apology, and they haven't.

This is a nice hidden gem in Chandler. Finally made it a point to check it. Tried a few items all if which were good. The aguachile, guacamole, and tacos all hit the spot! Great flavors for sure. They also have some very good cocktails. A little on the higher end in terms of cost so be prepared for that but still highly recommend. read more

My son absolutely loves coming here because they always make sure to put on a little "show" for him, which makes it extra special for our family. The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. read more

Both Ribeye de la Casa and Surf and Turf were cooked well and nicely seasoned, excellent cocktails, friendly bartenders, and a really enjoyable ambiance overall. I sat at the bar during my visits and had consistently great service each time. The bartenders were knowledgeable and able to make unique cocktail recommendations based on what I was looking for, which I appreciated. Get the salsa macho, its spicy but has hints of roasted cacahuate and roasted chili de arbol to enhance the flavor of the steak. There was one cocktail that wasn't exactly the flavor profile I initially had in mind, but they were attentive, accommodating, and happy to adjust things to better match what I was looking for. The staff overall seemed to genuinely care about creating a good experience and taking care of their customers. I enjoyed the Chandler location so much that I ended up visiting the downtown Phoenix location afterward as well. Parking at both locations could probably become difficult during busier times. Chandler had more street-style parking with some adjacent parking nearby, while downtown Phoenix relied more on metered parking. That said, during the week it really wasn't bad at all. Overall, just a great place to unwind with good food, drinks, and service. read more

We loved our first visit! Oscar was the best! The restaurant is beautiful with great table lighting. Most of us had tacos and we are still raving about them as well as the Tres Leches cake. I would have said 5 stars but the table check in was a little awkward. We were given basically one hour to eat as the table was supposedly reserved again for a larger party. We were a few minutes over that and no one was waiting for our table. We felt rushed and would have enjoyed a more leisurely visit. read more

I decided to try this place because of the good ratings on Yelp. The food was mediocre at best they drown a perfectly good ribeye in some sauce so you couldn't even taste the beef. The elote was good, but very expensive for corn. Service was good and attentive, but they weren't very busy either. The ambiance is dark and seems like it would be good for a date...maybe happy hour. read more

This is a newer and well appointed restaurant. The chicharron's were very good as well as the guacamole. I also have to say that the salsa here is outstanding. Service was good as well. We both ordered the carne asada. Honestly it was a nice portion but the meat was just okay and not nearly the best I have had. That being said the price was a bit high for the quality and the sides were small. Overall a good place but I think I would try something different. read more

What turned out to be a very confusing walkway into the restaurant turned into a delicious meal! Parking could be a little frustrating since it isn't a busy area and also the entrance is through the patio, which could be confusing to some people. The service was great once I got inside and the menu had many options to choose from, but not too many anywhere. It was hard to tell what some of the popular dishes would be. A lot of good recommendations from the server and ended up getting a delicious pasta with Carne Asada steak as another entrée. Would highly recommend getting any of their tacos as though two that we got were spectacular and filled with flavor. It got pretty busy towards the night so definitely come early if trying to get a spot without reservation. read more

I decided at the last minute that I was not going to cook tonight... so we went to Miel de Agave... let me tell you about this place!! Oh boy, it started with a beautiful entrance just off of Arizona Ave. We were seated right away on a Tuesday evening. No reservations. Staff is nicely dressed in uniform for serving their customers. We tried a cocktail that was half mojito and half mule!!! OH MY GOODNESS! This was just delicious....also with this drink came a tiny little EXCITEMENT BOMB in the form of a "Buzz Button." They place this small plant bud into the top of your drink and you nibble on it as you sip your drink....WHAT IS GOING ON WILL EXCITE YOUR TASTE BUDS!!! I can't really explain in detail how wonderful this little burst of "what the heck was that "...I wanted more. Ok, so on to the dinner. Again, they did not disappoint... hubby had the triple cheese burger and it was the best he has had! I chose the Sonora tacos with steak and chicken...sooo delicious. Shout out to Ana!! She was the perfect blend of patience and professionalism that made the experience that much better. She explained everything and was so helpful because it was our first time. I'm adding pics of our drinks, meal and that little wonder plant "Buzz Bud." Come and see what you are missing at this place!! They have music on the weekends, so call for reservations! We will be back!!! read more

A Latin inspired restaurant without any rice in the building. Huh? That's weird. Also weird is the snobby vibes on a Sunday at noon. Place wasn't busy and the staff was slow to greet us.
