Enjoyed a delicious meal there yesterday (cinco de Mayo) with great service. I was terribly disappointed in the volume of the music. TERRIBLY! Jet engines produce around 140 - 155 decibels of noise during takeoff which was dwarfed by comparison to the disk jockey. Many of the guests were well over 50 years old. Most covered their ears at one point or another. In my humble opinion management was severly disconnected from the patrons! As good as the food and service were, we could not hold a conversation at our table and neither could most of your other customers. PLEASE, talk to your disk jockeys and remind them to be more cognizant of the crowd and less focused on the output wattage. Backgroung music! Not jet engine volume!

Agave has a great reputation so I finally tried it... Their were 5 of us and although the food was good, we weren't overwhelmed... In my opinion it was above average but have had better... Pretty much everything is Ala la cart... The prices are a bit steep but expected !!! Personally I enjoyed my meal but probably will not return unless invited... On a high note our Server was absolutely fantastic ?

Went back again and I have to say the 2 stars l gave them were generous. But let me say the staff were excellent. 2 apps 3 cocktails =$90. I use to live in NJ and did business in NY. I am use to high prices but the quality of food was horrible. My app was not made in the restaurant but was bought from a food purveyor and they just dropped it in the deep fryer. The empanadas were mushy.Hey if you want to pay high prices for a cocktail and eat barely eatable food. This place is for you.Food was good. Nothing special. Service was very good. A little noisy but that’s okay. But why 2 stars. When we were greeted by the hostess the first thing she said to us that there is a limit of 1 and 1/2 hours. Hey, If your busy congratulations! But I will not be coming back when the restaurant puts restrictions on you. As a couple of we normally don’t take more than 45 minutes. But just the fact they don’t care about you but want to turn and churn is not the restaurant business that I grew up in. We are locals. So I guess they don’t need our business.Paul.

The food was ok, we got a shrimp guacamole, I would say, is overpriced. Also, we got the tortilla soup, which was ok, no for $14, though... the old fashioned with mezcal was fantastic, I would come back here only for a drink or two but not for food, we waited really long time for the food and then the check

Food was absolutely delicious. They messed up the appetizers but they did the right thing. Nobody's perfect but these are the type of things that differentiate poor restaurants from good ones. They reacted very professionally to their mistake. Definitely would go back.

Been an agave customer since its inception in Lewes. Loved the original. The prices (don’t give me that inflation excuse) off-season are so egregious, I’m never going back. I wanted chicken on my $17 salad. $13 add on for a breast. $30 for a salad with grilled chicken? Mahi tacos are now $27. For two fried pastries. I was floored. The papusas were mid, the empanadas like any other fried one you have had. The soup was 5 star.The Rehoboth location has the loudest worst atmosphere of almost any restaurant I have been to. It reminds me of high school lunch in the cafeteria where you can’t hear yourself speak or think. Terrible acoustics. Very disappointed. Many other restaurants to dine at in the area.

Let me just start off by saying that the architecture to this restaurant is gorgeous! The interior is clean & rustic, which I love.Our server was very friendly and accommodating. The food didn’t take long at all and the drinks were just the perfect strength, like a cocktail should be!For drinks, I got a pomegranate margarita and the creamsicle cocktail for dessert.As an entree, I got the mole enchiladas. It came with rice and beans. I definitely think that the mole enchilada had way too much cinnamon in the recipe and it wasn’t balanced. An authentic recipe should have balance with just the right notes. Although it wasn’t balanced, it was still good.The disappoint in my entree lies with the rice and beans. They were sooooo dry. Overall I liked my meal but would’ve liked to have had more moisture in the rice and more juice in the beans.I would definitely try the margaritas again and I would say the highlight of this restaurant is the cocktails and the environment.Will be back soon for the guacamole ?✨

Really good Mexican food and drink in a beautiful restaurant. Staff is friendly and responsive. Two things working against it in my book.... no reservations and no high chairs. Both easily accounted for if you know about them ahead of time.

Best Filet quesadilla ever. Only come to town once or twice a season and this is a must stop. New location is super big and fancy. Dwight was our server and was very polite and attentive. 10/10 experience every time.
