Fantastic experience! Our server was spectacular: highly engaging, friendly, knew the menu well. Food was delicious. It was nicely plated, delicious, and appropriate quantity. Price was also consistent with experience and quality. We had margaritas, guacamole sampler, chile verde, and fish tacos. Vibe was lively and fun. Five stars! read more

The food was great, just seemed the staff preferred to talk to each other instead of taking care of the customer. I had to ask for sides and ask for my tortillas and salsa. Drinks sat empty for 10+ minutes. Maybe it was just a case of the Monday's. Pretty disappointing from a best of state... 1. Had to ask for silver ware and napkin after 10 minutes of sitting. 2. Had to ask for tortillas when main entree came out, didn't realize I was missing rice and beans too that came 15 min later after I asked if they had any other salsa... 3. No explanation of the dish that was dropped off or how to eat or what it is. Just very much like here you go and good luck have to ask for everything. 4. Had to ask for drink refills after being empty and clearly lots of staff just standing there talking to each other. Usually I'm asked if I would like another one which I would have happily of ordered more but again no care was given. 5. Prob one of the worst service experiences I've had at a so called 5 star place. Might be a management issue Monday at 6pm read more

Pretty good. Waitress was nice and gave good recommendations. Ambiance is fun. Reminds me of Puesto in California. I enjoyed the appetizer sampler, guacamole, and carnitas plate. My mom said her food was really good. We shared the butter cake with ice cream which was probably my favorite butter cake Ive ever had. The problems: Chips were not my favorite and some of them were too peppery. Margaritas lacked alcohol (maybe its b/c of Utah's liquor laws) but really wasnt worth it. I'd go back and with now knowing the negatives that took it down a star, I might take it up a star by skipping those. read more

Service was pretty slow, even though the restaurant wasn't busy when we arrived, and our server seemed annoyed when we asked for the check. We got off to a rough start with the pork belly bites appetizer, the pork belly tasted old and overcooked. We'd asked for light ice in our drinks, but only one came out that way. My steak and mushroom dish also only came with two flour tortillas. On the plus side, the complimentary beans and salsa were good, and so was the butter cake. Parking was great for downtown, and the restaurant was beautiful. Still, I don't think I'd go back read more

Started off with the watermelon basil mezcalita. I loved the tajin rim and the flavor was refreshing and sweet and very easy to drink. I ordered the shrimp ceviche and the carnitas sol agave bowl. Unfortunately the ceviche came out very late (after my sol agave bowl which was supposed to be a main). Honestly, k don't really mind that the dishes did not come out in the correct order but I know some people are sticklers for that. The ceviche was a nice delicious sour app. I loved the flavor but it wasn't particularly amazing - would say it was average. It was definitely still tasty though. The sol agave bowl was delicious. I ordered the carnitas with it. The carnitas was very flavorful and tasty with a nice tender texture. It was not dry at all. The portion was absolutely massive and I ate so much chips and salsa and ceviche that I was able to save the leftovers to be full for dinner the next day and the leftover were still delicious!! Overall, a delicious meal with generous potions. The restaurant was chill and family friendly. They had large tvs so it's good for watching sports too. Nice place to eat in Lehi! read more

Omg. If I could rate this place more than 5 stars I would. The food- exceptional. The service- top tier. The restaurant- spectacular! I had been wanting to visit but just hadn't made it yet, so when I had a girls night we made sure it happened!! I can't wait to come back! read more

Yum!! So good, it's Mexican food but fancy! Entree sizes are made for dinner, so if you are looking for a lighter option go with an appetizer. We ordered the street tacos, taquitos, and queso. All so so good! This was plenty of food for me and my two friends. read more

I went on a Tuesday night without a reservation and our group of four was seated right away. The chips and salsa were a standout right from the start. You can tell the chips are freshly made, and everyone at the table loved them. I ordered the cheese chile relleno that came with a small side of rice and beans. It was a bit spicy for my taste, but still very flavorful and delicious. My friend loved the chicken fajitas. There was a small wait for mixed drinks, but the friendly staff and endless chips made it no issue. Great vibes and beautiful interior. Overall, I'd definitely go back to try more! read more

You can come semi dressed up, and I heard this was a more formal place but I came in after a hike and didn't feel out of place so casual is also fine. It was hard to pick one thing off the menu. We got carnitas and chile colorado which was plenty of food, especially after the chips and salsa which really meant chips, juicy spicy salsa, and beans with queso fresco. Despite knowing that I'd be really full, it felt necessary to get another round of the salsa/beans. The entrees came out in a few minutes. They don't shred the meat here; you get presentable chunks of meat with your sauces and tortillas. Mexican food this good is weirdly hard to find around here and I can understand it's a more upscale place but be prepared to pay a little more than you think. read more

I'd hate to leave only three stars for this beautiful restaurant. So for the ambiance and service I'll add a star. I was disappointed with the Sol Agave bowl I ordered. It really lacked Any flavor and I added fish that I found to be incredibly overcooked. The guacamole trio was good. The discerning factor is typical of SLC. You often go to a Mexican restaurant in search of that great Margarita. Well, you won't find it here. My companion ordered a watered down sad version of what is supposed to be a fun, celebratory drink, what a disappointment. My Mojito was maybe one notch better but that's a stretch. I knew not to order a margarita after seeing the sad drinks left on tables. If you're a non drinker you'll likely enjoy SOL Agave. read more

Very disappointing! Service is not good. I'm sitting here at the restaurant writing this review now. I figure since I've been here for an hour, don't have our food, chips are gone, water glasses are empty, I have time. Monday night, not super busy, and our waiter hasn't been back to check on us. My wife got up to go grab a pitcher of water to refill our glasses since no one is checking on us and everyone is thirsty and out of water. Oh....our waiter just came and said the kitchen was laughing at him because we got the water ourselves. Not sure why the three servers that were just standing around didn't help us? I asked him if our food was almost ready and he said there is only one order in front of us and our food should be out in under 10 minutes. What?! How could we be here for over an our now and our order isn't in? We had reservations for the main dining room and they sat us in the sol room which looks like it used to be a patio that they enclosed. Since it's February it's cold in here and everyone has their coats on. This sucks. Well after 1 hour and 15 minutes we got our food. The positive of the night is the food was good! So if you like good food and slow/bad service this is your place!! read more

Sol Agave - Our order - Mexican Near Me - Salt Lake City, Utah

Really unfortunate experience at sol agave. It seems that it is becoming pretty popular and there's often challenges with keeping up with expectations amidst growing popularity. When we arrived we immediately noticed a very large crowd of people waiting outside of the restaurant. There was a few heat lamps (only one working) which tells me that they may have been overbooked for a few weeks or so now. We made a resy and we were told that despite our reservations we were 11th in line. This was challenging because I had a friend who needed to get home sooner than later. We were seated about 30-45m later. To summarize the food, it was pretty awful. See pictures for my tacos falling apart making it impossible for me to lift them up despite it being two tortillas. I'm afraid this place has a long way to go. read more

Highly recommend this place for some fancy Mexican food. My favorites are the enchilada with mole and al pastor, followed by the sugar cane filet and salmon. The enchilada is packed with carnitas (pork) and the mole sauce with a little sour cream on top is pretty good. The carnitas taco in the combo is not great tho, very dry. I wonder if you could order the enchilada only. The al pastor is well seasoned and tender. It has pineapple, cheese, onion. Would be nice if it comes with some carb. The sugar cane filet is a small piece of steak over rice, topped with peppers, but my favorite part of the dish is the sauce. It really enhances the flavor of the dish. Salmon is moist and the mango sauce is sweet. I don't like how they don't chop off the bottom of the asparagus that is not edible.. Octopus is good but the sauce is more on the sour side. Mixed ceviche has fish, shrimp, octopus. Shrimp and octopus are definitely cooked, the fish seems to be cooked too. The sauce is super sour and spicy. Their butter cake is sweet but very good. The outside has a nice crunch, probably because they burn the sugar. Churro is standard. Watermelon agua fresca barely has watermelon taste and it is very sour read more

From the moment I walked in, I was impressed. The service is blazing fast without feeling rushed -- we were seated, served, and enjoying our meals in what felt like no time. The staff is genuinely warm, attentive, and welcoming, which made the entire experience even better. Now let's talk portions... they're huge. You definitely get your money's worth, and then some. Every dish we tried was bold, flavorful, and beautifully presented. You can tell they put heart into what they serve. This place strikes the perfect balance between casual and elevated. Whether you're going for a relaxed meal or want to impress visiting friends, Sol Ávage absolutely delivers. Highly recommend -- I'll definitely be back! I went for a private event where the whole restaurant was rented out. So impressed! read more

Excited that there is finally a closer location! Place is a bit on the pricer end but the quality of the food is amazing! So just plan on spending a little more. First time getting the ceviche here and I thought it was refreshing and flavorful. My go to is the tacos de hongo! This is a must, the steak with mushrooms is yummy! First time ordered the enchiladas de langosta aka lobster. Liked that the sauce was a very creamy. The mar y terra is more on a sweeter taste. All entrees amazing. Can't go wrong with any of them. Place is beautiful inside. Love the decor and the vibes. Liked that they have outdoor seating. There's some parking but on busier nights it's nice that there's a parking garage in same plaza available. read more

I recently had dinner at Sol Agave and enjoyed the experience overall. The chili verde had great flavor, though the portion felt small for the price. The corn tortillas were tasty. The strawberry agua fresca was just okay. Chips and salsa were solid and a good start to the meal. Service was friendly, but our waiter was a bit absent-minded--we had to remind him a couple of times about things he'd forgotten. Not a dealbreaker, but noticeable. The atmosphere was pleasant with warm lighting and a comfortable vibe, which definitely added to the experience. A decent spot overall, with a few areas for improvement. read more

I went here for my birthday dinner with my family, and it was a terrible experience. I felt embarrassed for suggesting that we go here since the service and experience was so horrible. The only thing that made the experience good was the tasty food. First, we waited 15 minutes to even get water after we were seated. That should've been foreshadowing for the rest of the meal. Second, my boyfriend found a piece of aluminum foil in the salsa. Third, there appeared to be a bug that crawled out of his lamb shanks. Fourth, the restaurant was hot and my dad was sweating. Finally, service was insanely slow on a Tuesday night. The whole meal took about two hours. Sadly, I will not be back. read more

I was excited when Sol Agave opened a location in downtown Salt Lake City. I had visited their location at LA Live in California and loved the food, atmosphere and service and was hopeful they brought that vibe to Salt Lake City. Yes indeed they did bring it. They have on site parking which is complimentary and a rare thing in downtown these days. Also you can reserve a table through Yelp which ensures you can dine on your schedule. We were greeted and seated within a few minutes of our arrival with a choice of inside or outside seating. Due to the heat we stayed inside but the patio area looks lovely. Started off with a house margarita and mojito to accompany our chips and salsa and bean dip. Both were very tasty. They have quite an large bar area with a full menu of beverages. We decided to share the Sol Agave Salad with steak and the Enchiladas de Camaron. The portions were significant and the salad came out so fresh and colorful and a full steak was sliced on top of the salad. The house dressing on the salad made all the flavors just pop. The enchiladas had huge prawns inside and a nice spicy kick to the sauce. We loved both our entrees and unfortunately were so full there was no room left for their famous Butter Cake which we will try on our next visit. read more

Diet Coke rating: 7.6/10 Had lunch here on Mother's Day and it didn't leave a good first impression. The service was very slow and it was hard to get refills. I got the lobster enchiladas and the first bite was great but they were a little salty and all the food came out just warm. The last plates arrived to the table when everyone was almost finished. Atmosphere and music was nice, not too loud and it was comfortable. Guava mojito and their chips and salsa and beans were wonderful. Will probably not come back but might be an ok place for drinks and chips. read more

Came to Sol Agave for lunch and had a great experience. We were sat immediately and brought water and chips & salsa/bean dip. They have a interesting brunch menu but we decided to go for the regular entrees, chile verde and taquiza. Since the taquiza was an appetizer, i thought it would be small but nope! It was a great portion and they do not skimp on the meat for both entrees. Both meals were tasty and the meat was tender. The horchata was also the best ive tasted!! Jose was our waiter and he was phenomenal! read more

I don't think a restaurant has ever fallen from grace this quickly. Sol Agave has gone from being a favorite to someplace we will not be returning to in record time. Things have been going downhill the past few times we have eaten here but I chalked it up to an off day. I could forgive the inconsistency, I could forgive the outrageous prices, but I cannot forgive being lied to. The Mar Y Tierra is listed on the menu as an enchilada containing filet mignon topped with shrimp in a sherry wine sauce. I have ordered this many times in the past. When I ordered it last Saturday, not only was it missing its normal double tortilla wrapper, not only did the shrimp not taste fresh, not only did the sauce taste completely different than usual, but the meat inside was definitely NOT filet mignon. It was some sort of slow cooked shredded beef. I get that times are tough but do not lie to me. Change the description on the menu but don't charge $38.00 and tell me it's filet mignon when it isn't even steak. If you think your customers won't notice the cuts you are making, you're wrong. read more

We were so disappointed. We spent over $300 for 4 people and the food was not good. The dish with the filet medallions had the toughest tenderloin we have ever encountered. The chili rellenos were okay but it was served room temp. The birria was very good. The tacos had dry flavorless tough meat. We have never had worse Mexican food. The server was efficient. The restaurant is visually appealing. We don't mind paying a high price for high quality but this was not that. read more

Our group had a great experience here with our waiter Lalo. Cocktails were delicious - we all got different margaritas - and the group shared appetizers including pork belly bites and the cazuela de queso. I wish I'd taken a picture of my entree because it looked amazing - the sol agave bowl with chicken - but it was so flavorful and the chicken so juicy that I devoured it. For dessert, the butter cake is an absolute must have, and they brought my friend the tres leches cake for her birthday which was good too. Would definitely return! read more

Sol Agave is a high-end Mexican restaurant in SLC. The restaurant is beautiful and the chosen lighting was classy and perfect. With a reservation, we were seated quickly and attended to efficiently ! The pricing of the menu is - in my opinion - a bit overpriced for the meals we receive. We got the shrimp taquitos to start our meal. LOVED the flavor of these bad boys. However the dish comes with 3 jumbo shrimp taquitos for the price tag of $18...$6 a piece ! Flavor was amazing but pricing is insane. We shared a Sol Agave Para Dos. A shareable meal, to which tortillas are free when needed. Though this dish was full of variety in meats and vegetables, the flavors were all different. I think it could be shared with more than 2. The meal is large, advertised for two, but could easily be shared between a group of 4. It was extremely filling and was still a full plate, it seemed, by the time we felt done. I would definitely recommend Sol Agave to people - for a one time visit at least. But again - high high prices with payoff that doesn't quite meet that. With a nice ambiance and great service, Sol Agave is still making waves in SLC. read more

5/5 Stars. Had a wonderful birthday dinner at Sol Agave. Our waitress, Abby, (from Costa Rica) was the highlight--she was so attentive and took great care of us. We ordered the Mar Y Tierra and the Famous Carnitas. Both dishes were incredible, with the carnitas being some of the best I've ever had. We finished with the infamous Butter Cake, and it lived up to every bit of its reputation. A must-try spot in downtown SLC! read more

The food was edible... well, most of it was. Unfortunately, the seafood didn't smell quite fresh. I ordered the mahi-mahi taco and couldn't eat it because the fish was extremely chewy, so I ended up just eating around it. When the server asked how the food was, I told her the mahi-mahi was chewy and that I was eating around it. Her response was simply, "Oh," and nothing else was offered. The taco wasn't taken off the bill, and no replacement was suggested. When we paid, she apologized again and said it wasn't very good, which only made it more confusing that nothing had been done earlier. Overall, the food wasn't great and the service didn't help the situation. read more

The chili Colorado is so delicious!!! The service was fantastic. One of my favorite places

I came to Sol Agave recently for a private event. The atmosphere was wonderful, but it was way too hot inside the event room. My friends and I were all sweating and fanning ourselves with our napkins. The service was wonderful, and considering how many of us there were, it was very quick. They were fast with drink orders, but the only thing that was lacking was water refills. I saw a few people go up to the pitcher to refill their glasses themselves. I ordered the Enchiladas de Mariscos as my entree. The Dungeness crab and shrimp inside were succulent and fresh. I wasn't the biggest fan of their roasted red pepper sauce. The Tres Leches was moist and yummy, but their Churros were soggy. The Horchata, Pina Colada and Coco Margarita were all delicious and refreshing. I love that they have free garage parking. It's so rare to find that in Downtown, and it takes away the headache of finding a spot. read more

Stumbled upon this place during a casual exploratory walk downtown. We were not disappointed! "Stopping in for a drink" quickly turned into a full on dinner. Frozen Coco = a fantastic coconut drink with toasted coconut topping and rim. Pulpo was good, but could have been a bit crispier. Mar y Tierra - oh my goodness. Enchiladas with the best cheese pull and most tender filet mignon. The sauce was to die for. Looking forward to bringing a large group I am traveling with in November here for dinner.

This used to be one of my favorite restaurants and the food quality has gone down terribly. I had to send my steak back twice to be cooked properly, first time it was well done when I asked for medium rare, second time it was fully rare, total disappointment and it was my birthday. The server didn't show much care that all my guests were eating and then done when I finally got my food. read more

Considering a 5:30 pm reservation the service was slow. 20 minutes for both 1st and second round of drinks (beer), blamed on the new bartender. The bar was maybe 50% of capacity. This was my second dinner there. 1st about 5 months ago, food was fresh and flavorful. Last night the food was obviously flavor enhanced. Stomach issues common in the household after the meal. Ambiance is always great. read more
