Great margs and brunch – The brunch menu is pretty good and a nice value. I wouldn't recommend going there for dinner though.

The manager is a complete jerk! – Think twice about going to this restaurant! We made reservations; however, they didn't seat us until 1 hr later and then told us we only have one hour to eat. The manager was very rude and stuck up. Who cares about the food?????

Good Eats – How have I never been to Agave before? My friend told me about this restaurant for a year before he finally took me this weekend. The food is phenominal!! Maybe it's because my friend is there a lot, but I was welcomed like a regular. I had to wait for my friend at the bar for a few minutes--I was a bit put off that it was so crowded, but when I got my margarita, I knew why... And the bartender remembered my name!

Good Environment...Poor Service – The entrance isn't that inviting, especially in the winter months. You will be greeted by a smiling hostess which counters the lack of decor at the window seating. The main memory that keeps ringing a bell is that the service is awful. The servers and/or bus persons dart back and forth through the dining room, never even making eye contact to see if you have any needs. They don't offer recommendations, take a long time with drink orders, don't check back after serving the entree, and plan on... read more

Not impressed at all – Unfortunately, going to a place as hyped-up as this one is sometimes a set up for a big let down. That's exactly what happened to me. The food is a weird combination of styles, I wouldn't call it Mexican, perhaps not even Latin. The service was slow because the restaurant was crowded. It's also very loud and at our table in the middle of the floor we could hardly hear each other. I didn't drink much but I guess if you get lit perhaps you won't notice how unimpressive the whole experience is. But it is ... read more

Not the best mexican in NYC! – This restaurant was very average! Food was OK, cocktails were crap!

very good, worth the wait – We had to wait about a half hour before we were seated, even though we had reservations.It was worth the wait. The margaritas were tasty and the guacamole is recommended. I can't wait to go back again!

Great food, friendly staff, would visit again! – We went there based on a friend's recommendation. The staff there was very friendly and accommodating. We had reservation for 9:00 PM but the show got out a lot earlier and the staff was happy to accommodate our early arrival. The seating is a bit tight, so it is not a good place for private conversations. But if you don't mind the dinner crowd so much, it is a great place to go. The decor is very nice with the adobe and interesting bamboo ceiling. The food was excellent and p... read more

definitely go!! – I go there often and I always bring new friends with me. Everyone always loves it. The food is flavorful and not too heavy. The ambiance is good enough for a date and just as nice for a group of friends. The waitstaff is helpful when choosing items on the menu. I'd definitely recommend it.
