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...

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.
