Great drinks and super flavorful food. I don’t remember being as impressed when they first opened but I am really glad we came back! The barbacoa and chicken tinga are amazing

I'm a bit disappointed. Price does not justify the food. Better restaurants out there.

We absolutely love El Gran Agave! The food is always amazing—especially the flautas/taquitos, they’re our favorite and so delicious every time. We’ve enjoyed meals there as a family and with a group, and the experience has always been fantastic. The atmosphere is welcoming, and the service is great. We’ve also had their food that was catered for events we have attended, and it was just as tasty and fresh as dining in. Highly recommend whether you’re looking for a night out or planning a special gathering!

I had a fantastic dinner at El Gran Agave recently. The place has a warm, inviting atmosphere with colorful Mexican decor that sets the perfect mood. The menu offers a great selection of authentic dishes. Our dinner was delicious with bold, well-balanced flavors. The staff was friendly and attentive, making sure everything ran smoothly. Their house margaritas were a nice touch, perfectly refreshing. If you’re looking for tasty Mexican food in a lively setting, El Gran Agave is well worth a visit. I’m already planning my next trip!

The patio is nice on a sunny day. We got the Lisle Restaurant Week deal. Forgot to take a picture of the platter, but the quesabirria and chimichanga were exceptionally delicious. The taco was pretty standard. Was bummed to have to choose either rice or beans instead of having some of both. The house marg was good both frozen and on the rocks. The churro sundae was also very delicious. On the pricier side for something comparable to Mexican takeout, but still yummy.

I’m actively sitting at a table here typing this. I get me and my friends came in 49 minutes before close. But as soon as we walk in the cook looks at us and gives a dirty look and says “you gotta be kidding me” we never came for the food we wanted a damn margarita. But even if I did want food you decided to clean your grill early love. Not my fault 🤣

Great food, great service and great atmosphere. The best nachos and mole. Family owned and operated. Come support your local business. Thank you Angelina for your hospitality!

First time there. Sunday about 5:30 pm. It was dead there. Food was good but was a little lacking on the flavor side. Service was really good and professional and friendly. Lot of tequila to choose from. Little on the pricey side but every has a choice. Definitely will go back.

My hubby and I LOVE LOVE this local place! They greet you like old friends and the food is top notch. The ingredients are high quality. Try the Piña al Pastor (pork served in a pineapple) or something as simple as Chicken and Rice Dish with a side salad! If you are into cocktails and spirits, the beverage list has something for everyone. The Señorita Bonita or the white blend wine is refreshing!
