The food was good, but the service was great. Had a young man with a small afro as a server, he was a great server.

Great find in Sneads Ferry. We’ve been overseas for a long time and to come back to a place like this felt like home again. The waitress was attentive, the drinks were good (I’m typically not a margarita fan, but this place is makes them so well I thoroughly enjoyed it), and the food was tasty.

The meat was slightly overcooked, but still had good flavor. Only complaint in an otherwise wonderful experience!

The parking lot is always packed when we drive by, so we had to try it. The service and atmosphere are fine, but it's the vast, diverse menu that sets this place apart. Lots to choose from at reasonable prices. We're already planning our next visit!

Food was delicious. Salsa and chips had a little spice, and everything was very flavorful. Service was nice and they decorated the place great.

The food was excellent as always. We had a steak and shrimp dish and shrimp and octopus street tacos. Also queso as an appetizer. All excellent. We did have big issues with service. Our waiter, a nice young man, just wasn’t at his best. He asked if we were ready to order before we were even given menus. We had to ask him if we could order a drink, please bring us a drink menu. Once we were served, we never saw him again until we asked for to go containers and our bill. Excellent food, we enjoyed a slow dining time and great conversation with each other. Just wish we had had a server. Will return because the food is just too good to give up on the restaurant because of one tainted experience.

110% APPROVED by this lifelong Texican. 🌮 Beautiful atmosphere, artwork, and music. Generous chips, smooth salsa, savory rice. Highly recommend the flight of margaritas that pack a lot of punch and flavor! Can't decide between fajitas, quesadilla, or a burrito?? Go for the Shrimp Fajita Quesadilla!!! OMGGG 🌟🍤🌟

This is a great spin on modern Tex mex food. I have had the pleasure to eat here a handful of times and definitely recommend. Handful of new restaurants in the area popping up but never match the consistency of Agave.

Disclaimer: when they ask if you want a tall beer it’s really a tall and fat octoberfest mug of 36 oz. My Marines will love this since it’s only $8. Way cheaper alternative than Coastal who charges $4.75 for a 12oz domestic.

Nice restaurant with nice friendly staff. I had the steak burrito with rice. The rice was not the usual red rice, but it was flavorful. I really enjoyed it. The steak was overcooked and tough with charred pieces, but overall, it had food flavor. The pico served with the chips was a little spicy and good. I would recommend this restaurant.
