Love this place! Food is delicious, service is great and they are very accommodating to special diet needs. Pro tip: this place tends to be more crowded in the winter (1+ wait) so come in the summer.

Dariah Truesdell

Went for date night with my bf on Saturday night (definitely recommend reservations ).Nice atmosphere but hard to have a conversation. Try the chocolate and banana cheesecake , enough for two to share

This southwestern eatery has been making headlines since it opened in 2000. Food is made to order with the best ingredients, some flown in directly from New Mexico.

Santi Puma

Love this place! Especially the jalepeño margarita !!! Food is always delicious every time I go! Don't forget to try the appetizer corn ! Always think of downtown LA corn carts...so good.

Daniel Valdes

The stuffed trout is amazing! Smoky and stuffed with mushrooms , crawfish , basil . The photo does not do it justice. A must try!

Nest Atlanta Real Estate Group

Great spot for a romantic dinner - it's It is a little tight, so don't expect a lot of privacy. Try the Fish Tacos and/ or the Cayenne Fried Chicken (about $15).

I went there twice, want to go back again. Can't go wrong with key lime pie for dessert , one of the best I've ever had.

Brandon Sutton

Hard to go wrong here. Margaritas are exceptional and food is top notch. Seafood dishes are always a good choice and the green chile stew has a nice kick that's perfect on a chilly night.

GPNA

Everything is great! Keep coming back until you have eaten everything on the menu at least once. Always finish with Peanut Butter Pie . It's got a kick!

ROC House Women's Fitness Spa

Loved the agave salad : organic field greens, zucchini , squash , tomatoes , artichokes , and roasted sweet & spicy pecans in a herb & red wine citrus vinaigrette .

Jackie Smith

The ribs ...the fried chicken . ..the Margaritas ....the banana cheesecake is to die for!

Jim White

Great experience! We had a party of 27 and they were nothing short of amazing. Try the swordfish , meatballs , fried chicken , etc...and tip the valets no less than $5

Daniel Valdes

Great seafood and wonderful atmosphere make this restaurant stand out above the crowd

Kevin A. Stanley

WONDERFUL restaurant ! Interesting decor, great food (including one of the best steaks I've ever had), and dynamite service! Ask for Rob!

Sean Ramirez

If you're on a date ask for the romantic table for two next to the fireplace in the back. 😍

If it’s date night you’re interested in, ask to be seated in the side room, where on a chilly night you may be able to enjoy a fireside dinner .

Taste of Atlanta

Stop by between 5-7 p.m. and get the two for one appetizers when you sit at the Agave tequila bar .

Darrin Tebbe

Ceviche was awesome, as were the scallops and flat-iron steak ! A little on the pricey side, but food was top-notch.

Charlsie 🍡

Amazing food - always. I love the fried chicken and the short ribs are good too. What a great restaurant in Atlanta!

Merilee D.

Agave wasn't really for me. When I want Mexican food , I want the more authentic traditional meals. And it felt a little overpriced for me. Just not my cup of tea but it was packed so people do like it

Hatch green chiles are one of the most flavorful varieties, and yet we rarely see them used. Luckily, they're the main ingredient of this stew . Read more

Delicious southwestern food. The scallop dish is fantastic.

Joseph Ricciardelli

The stuffed trout is a must. It is unbelievable how good it is. There are no words. Best birthday meal I've ever had!

Veronica Pearman

Just left and I had the best Ceviche I've ever had in Atlanta! Only went in for drinks but decided to nibble. Cool Place. EXCELLENT SERVICE!!!!

Oakland Cemetery

Crave from the Grave: You can't go wrong with the Cayenne Fried Chicken . Mmm...tasty. Best margaritas in the city too. While you're in the n'hood stop on by Oakland!

Brian Moran

Everything is delicious!

The lamb is great!

Cliff Bostock says of Agave's posole : I've eaten gallons of the stuff in Mexico and Houston and along Buford Highway. Chef-owner Jack Sobel's is as good as any I've had. Read more

Beatriz David

Service, food, ambience, are all excellent.

Jake Jones

The Peachtree Margarita is pretty tasty. Just don't make the mistake of not making a reservation/being seated in the loft area.

Try the Spicy Tequilla Shrimp - An awesome adaptation of shrimp and grits

Rob

Fried chicken is amazing. Guacamole is so so, but the chips and salsa are excellent. Margaritas are not to be missed

Colleen Craig

Go to Agave and sample from over 100 Tequilas on hand. Also, get 2 for 1 apps from 5-7pm at the bar . Then enjoy a lovely dinner near one of their two fireplaces . Read more

ONE OF MY FAV PLACES, AND IT SO CLOSE TO HOME

Diana Baldwin

The "natural" margarita is well worth it, and not quite as sweet as a traditional margarita .
