The food is always great here. The fajitas and burritos are fantastic. The owners are always there to help serve. I eat there at least weekly! We also get takeout on certain nights, a great family owned restaurant!

This isn’t the first time I’ve had a disappointing experience at Agaves. On multiple visits, I’ve been ignored while waiting to be served. Most recently, I was standing in line when the employee went from helping someone else straight to the bar. I gave it a few minutes, thinking she was getting something ready, but she never came back.
To test it, I actually called the restaurant while still standing inside. She went to the back to answer the phone instead of acknowledging me at the counter. It honestly felt like I was being avoided, even though I was clearly waiting.
I did eventually go ahead and place my order by phone, because the food here really is good — but the customer service is consistently trash. The food alone can’t make up for the way customers are treated

The molcajete is phenomenal. Has steak,chicken, shrimp, and chorizo with fajitas veggies,napoleon, and a grilled jalapeno. Easily enough for 2 people to share or one person with leftovers to take home. Best place for Mexican food in Nicholasville.

Revisited this awesome little Mexican restaurant again after many years away. The interior has been updated. We really appreciate the padded booth seating. The old wooden benches needed to go. The new paint is clean and elegantly sophisticated for a small town. The bar looks amazing and would be a great place for friends to meet for happy hour or drinks. Our service was fast! We had a simple mid afternoon lunch of Margaritas and Nacho Supreme! Omg the Margaritas were on point! Let's go Tequila! The other reviews are not wrong! This is a great restaurant for Nicholasville and on our list of places we'll return to! Thank you Agave!

Great food, thought we had a great waiter, nice atmosphere however the waiter doubled his tip and conveniently enough the manager is never in so I have yet to be able to speak with the manager or owner to resolve this issue.

When we went there with some friends for his birthday the waiter doubled his tip. Still have yet to be able to speak to the owner or a member of management to resolve this.

The food and atmosphere is great. The service, is good, but often it is just one server doing it all. She is great, but 2 would be better.

Agave’s is one of the best around! Food, friendly servers, prices, and atmosphere! Give them a go! It’s our go to Mexican food! We drive from Lexington!
Was in Agaves yesterday afternoon. I always enjoy my visits. Mateo was behind the bar. Very friendly and makes a great margarita! The owner / mgr always stops by to see how things are. I usually have the Chile Colorado to eat. Had this dish in CA, AZ, NM, and TX. This is the best by far. Very savory with a mild kick. I'll keep coming back. 😋

A local gem. The food and drinks are consistently good, and the atmosphere is fantastic! The courteous service is timely and attentive. Ideal for a date night or a casual gathering with friends. My favorite is the fajita vegetarian taco salad, and my spouse is a fan of the beef chimichanga. I highly recommend making this your go-to dining restaurant.
