“Love going to this restaurant. One of my favorite healthy places to eat. There aren’t many in Bakersfield that have locally grown food to enjoy a nice meal at. Besides, anywhere you go is expensive but here you’re getting quality food and locally sourced food. Heather was even there that day and came out and shared her vision with us. We are very excited for her and wish her all the best!!“

“5 stars for this type of place. As I always say, go i to places being realistic about what to expect. 2 of us went on a Friday at 5:30pm. It was busy. It was Happy Hour! We grabbed a drink and hung out by the bar until our table was ready. That took , maybe, 20 minutes. Not bad, in my opinion. We had a nice booth, and it was a fun atmosphere. We ordered happy hour appetizers and they came out in 10 minites. Super fastband friendly service. I think they have a well oiled machine going at this place. The pruce during happy hour can't be beat for the qualuty if food you get. I think its a great place to meet up with friends, have dinner with the kids, or a first meet-up kind of spot.“

“Agave Grill & Tequila has a fun vibe with a bit of a nightlife twist. It definitely had more of a nightclub feel than I expected, but it was still a nice experience overall. The music was upbeat, the crowd was lively, and the atmosphere had great energy.

The food was solid, and the drink selection especially the tequila options was impressive. It’s a good spot if you’re looking for a place to eat and stay a little later for drinks and music.

Not your typical quiet dinner setting, but if you're in the mood for something with a little more energy, it’s worth checking out!“

“Very good burger, the appearance is a solid 10. Is not sloppy or messy. The taste is a solid 10. I got the double Texas with cheese no pickles. It is a good blend and the cheese melts beautifully. I’m not a pickle guy but I’m sure if you like pickles it will taste fresh. I got a large and for the price you get a good amount or fries and a good ice to drink ratio. My kids got the 10 piece chicken nuggets and all my 2 year is saying is yumm. For the price for the chicken nuggets. The amount of fries they put I say it’s better than McDonalds . Really enjoy the atmosphere. Will definitely become a regular.“
