About this business

Just a short drive from the hustle and bustle of downtown Atlanta, this hidden treasure provides a great escape for those who just want to relax and eat southwestern food. Enjoy the patio, with a drink or two if you wish. The cooking is eclectic and fresh here, from the spectacular seafood (try the stuffed trout tomatillo) to the shredded port tostadas. Open seven nights, Agave Restaurant attracts plenty of locals and guests from the big city.

It must be the meat-eaters who love it I agree wholeheartedly with the other review posted here: usually Southwestern restaurants offer plenty of vegetarian options, so we don't usually even bother scoping out their menu the way we would for other types of places. We were shocked to find that there was very little for us to eat. It's a great atmosphere and lovely patio, but how sad for veggies!

AGAVE - GIVEN 5 STARS BY 3 NEW ORLEANS WOMEN – My Mom and her friends from New Orleans visited recently. I took them to Agave the first night they arrived Atlanta. They all just raved about the food, the service, the atmosphere, the wine and tequila selections, etc... And believe me, if Agave passed the food test from my Mom, the biggest critic in the world, that says a lot! We all ordered something different (tenderloin medallions, seared tuna, shrimp and meatloaf) and every dish was fantastic. We also shared the dessert pl... read more

Excellent Service, tasty food – Agave is a great restaurant with many tasty options on the menu.. Great food is hard to find, but matching it with excellent service is even more difficult and Agave does both wonderfully. The wait staff is friendly and informative. Highly recommended to anyone who likes southwestern food or in the market of trying something new. The prices are a little high, but you get what you pay for, great food and great service.

Great Atmosphere The atmosphere is great and makes up for the ok cuisine. The portions are big enough to share. My husband is a vegetarian and there weren't a lot of veggie options. Great place to get a drink and meet up with friends.

Great Customer Service~Terrible Wine Pairing! – I went to Agave for the first time last night with a group of 7. I had been looking forward to this for a month! So many people said such wonderful things about Agave. The menu and wine pairing was chosen for us. The food was good with the exception of the Lamb. It had so much rosemary, I felt like I bit into a Christmas tree! The wine selections were awful and apparently the Chef's choice. I was so disappointed. Even those at the table who were not wine conissour's were making... read more

This is a gem of a restaurant that could cop far more of an attitude than they do. The food is delicious and very well presented by a very friendly staff. The Tenderloin Medalions and Sashimi Pan Seared Tuna are favorites, and the Cayenne Fried Chicken puts an elegant spin on a fine comfort food. I imagine that the chips and salsa are prepared there because they're always so fresh, the thick crunchy kind. They're great with a margarita (from the margarita menu book) but don't fill up on them! It's a very popular spot now, so... read more

Love It! – The food and atmosphere was amazing and the margaritas are unbelievable!!!! I took my mother to dinner there when she visited for mother's day weekend. The service was great and everything was decently priced. My mom was very blessed and impressed with the location. It ws extremely loud in the restaurant but we had a two seater in the corner and were able to enjoy conversations. I would definitely go back. My recommendation is to make reservations. Thank God we did. The wait was insane!

Agave left me Agape! – When I was ten, my parents dragged my stepbrother Ronny and I on a hellish trek through the southwest. What should have been a scenic journey through the eroded landscapes of New Mexico and Texas turned into a personal Trail of Tears. I had a nasty case of the chicken pox, and rather than quarantine their sick child, my parents propped me in front of endless cacti, adobes and indigenous people. I remember The Alamo, but only because Ronny held me down in the courtyard. I hacked up dust the rest of the ... read more

Never a disappointment !!!!!!!! – We have eaten at Agave several times (10-12) I've lost count. It never disappoints!! We don't live in town and it's well worth the drive. Our service is always awesome, we have taken all our friends and out of town guests. Try the Pom-Marg. it is incredable and they have a great beer selection not to mention the Tequilla. I have eaten most everything on the menu and have loved every dish. Try them all !!! If the fish tacos aren't on the menu you can ask for them. Enjoy, we sure have !!!
