Agave Mexican Restaurant

Food was delicious, and they use coca cola instead of Pepsi. Hey that means something to me because Pepsi products I equate to Taco Bell.

The atmosphere is modern, spacious, and the crowd felt casual but definitely more upscale.

The Carnita-Dilla on special was the best quesadilla I can remember. $17 and satisfying.

My mother got a margarita and even I who don't drink recognized how ample it was compared to other places.

Sure the bill came out to $74 for 1 soda, 1 unsweetened ice tea, a margarita, and 3 meals only. But I expected as much.

I did look at the menu and believe we all could have ordered more frugally the bill could have been under $50. But it also could have been over $100 in high quality meals too like the filet mignon soft tacos for $38.50 a meal.

Likewise I could spend $20 in food alone at Taco Reho being frugal and be pissed off they served me essentially an appetizer. I mean their food was good too, until I ate at Agave that is.

I know both places used to be something else, but Agave is superior, compared to Taco Reho that basically is the Glorified Taco Bell that failed to stay in business before it.

Parking: Standard parking around a bigger building means more parking and still spacious room between tables.

Kid-friendliness: I didn't see or notice kids, but I think the atmosphere is kid friendly

Wheelchair accessibility: Doors were wide enough for a wide body wheelchair. Could probably drive a rascal around inside.

Great place to have a tasty meal with kids. However, waiters need to be more attentive to their customers!

The food was definitely filling. I personally was done eating with sharing the appetizer and only had a few bites of the main course before I had to put my fork down. The waitress brought a partially overflowing margarita (that was delicious), it did however require several napkins to clean up what leaked out. The fundido is an appetizer worth sharing between four people. The crowd at the bar was a bit loud and made of for the place being half empty; made reservations and probably didn't need to. It was a little pricey but would go again during happy hour.

Way over priced for subpar Mexican food. It's very noisy. They charge you top dollar for everything. Agave isn't what it used to be. When it was just in Lewes it was the best. Now it's just a tourist trap. At least our server was great. There are way better Mexican places closeby for a fraction of the price with amazing food. A lot of the locals are even complaining on Nextdoor. Such a shame. Hopefully they find themselves and go back to what they were before.

I had chicken tortilla soup and shrimp guacamole and my husband had Mexican chilli, and the tamale I had the original margarita to drink .
I would say:
The restaurant itself is very nice ,big clean, clean restrooms , nice entrance, nice dining area. Beautiful !
The server we had was ok, he probably was busy because I did not felt much interest in our table, we ordered the 2 soups and the tamale came first and little cold ..we sent it back and maybe he realized that the soups should came first ..
Margarita taste good
Soups taste good
Tamale unflavored , definitely no recommend this dish at all
The guacamole flavorless and NOT shrimp in it only one whole shrimp in top of it when it came to the table
The food is overpriced .
Definitely is not authentic Mexican flavor. We won’t come back .

When we want a REALLY good margarita and fajitas, we go here! Try the Ancho Chili marg! I loved it so much I asked the server what type of Tequila was used and immediately after our dinner we went and bought it! (Hint: it's Tanteo) We asked our server if we could add double meat to the single serve fajitas so it would serve both John and I and she absolutely did that for us. Thank you! The guac comes out in a huge bowl. They definitely do not skimp on that. Open atmosphere (tall ceilings) with bar at the heart of the restaurant. Bring your friends, there is lots of room!

If you love tequila, you will love this agave. Staff is very friendly and you get what you pay for. I go every week and the atmosphere is great. Good place to meet new friends and great conversation.

Stay away!! This review was just going to be a review of how utterly bad the food was but now it’s not only that but a review of the 12 hours of food poisoning misery I endured.
Made Valentines reservations at Agave Rehoboth. Ordered Shrimp Guacamole (I believe this was the source of the food poisoning) Chips & Salsa, Chicken enchiladas and Fajitas. I’ll start with the Fajitas. They were served on a cold plate. Large chunks of peppers, tomatoes and onions. No seasoning or flavor. The chicken enchiladas were absolutely horrible. The red sauce literally tasted like Spaghetti O’s. The black beans were 100% from a can with zero flavor. Rice was dry and flavorless. The salsa definitely didn’t taste homemade and if it were, it was old. When we complained about the enchiladas the waiter told us, “ yea, our enchiladas aren’t that good.” As we left the restaurant I started feeling cramps and body aches. By the time I got home I was literally buckled over in pain. I spent the next twelve hours vomiting profusely and in severe pain. This restaurant should be shut down. I just went on Delaware’s Health Department website and found that they are constantly getting citations. Go look for yourself. PLEASE DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND STAY AWAY!

We go to agave a couple times a year. They have good American style Mexican food. Some say food is pricey, but honestly their prices are average with other restraunts in area.

Vegetarian options: My daughter is vegetarian and never has problems finding food she enjoys.

Food was really good. Portions were a little light for the money...I had Blue Cheese and Steak Quesadilla and my wife had the Chicken Quesadilla. No chips were served with the meal, but available for an extra fee. We ordered a small. We both had water with our meals. Our bill with tip was $61.50. We're not into the bar scene, but it seemed like the restaurant was centered around that kind of atmosphere since there was a huge bar, right in the middle of all the dining, which made the place a bit loud.
