SKIP CHIPOTLE, COME TO AGAVE! Amazing quality meats, awesome service, and great value with large portions! Came with friends and ordered bowls with Al pastor, barbacoa, and steak- all were DELICIOUS! And they are always so generous with the amount of meat too. Big thank you to Emilio and Hernesto for making our experience such a good one, we can’t wait to come back!

I’m not from here but every year I visit a friend and this is one of the most delicious places I have ever eaten. 100x better than Chipotle. Better than Qdoba too. I LOVE IT pls bring one to Miami or fort lauderdale 😍

I'll start by pointing out the elephant in the room - the food & setup is very much like a Chipotle, the Latin version. The Spanish rice, reddish in color, was A.MA.ZING! Fluffy, soft, and flavorful. The avocado was light (not dense). I enjoyed it so much I got a second bowl. The environment inside is inviting, clean, bright & well decorated. There is also a full bar. I highly recommend this place even for those who already enjoy Chipotle like I do. Very yummy, very inviting, friendly staff.

Date Night on a Budget!

Agave is the Morales Family Restaurants (Mazatlan, Las Margaritas, El Toro) take on fast casual. My favorite thing about these places is their Queso! One of the Best in town, you'd be doing yourself a disservice not ordering some.

My husband and I both went with Bowls. He usually gets the Barbacoa here but this time got Carnitas! Toppings included Cilantro Rice, Pinto Beans, Corn, Cheese, Lettuce, Sour Cream, Spicy Sauce, Queso, and he was happy to find Jalapeños as a bonus!

I love their Veggie Bowl! Cilantro Rice, Black Beans, Fajita Veg, Corn, Cheese, Sour Cream, Guac (of course), Extra Lettuce, and *gasp* Extra Cilantro 💚! Warm Tortilla on the side to gnaw on.

If you're craving Chipotle but want to Support Local this is the place to be! It's a cool little place, very clean, plenty of seating, sports on the various tvs. They also have a Military Discount. No drinks for us this time but you can order a Yummy Marg. Still had half my food to take home!

Everything tasted good but I got a burrito that was like 90% rice. Like half my bites that was the ONLY thing I got was rice. The meat was basically non existent. So if you actually want meat in your food I'd just stick to Chipotle.

Great place. Been coming here for the last year once every other week or so, and it never lets me down. Fresh food, fast service, fair prices.

John Goris

The food is super fresh and high-quality, with friendly and attentive service. The prices are fair for what you get, and it definitely outshines popular chains. Adding guacamole and queso is a must, and the Jamaica drink and horchata are also fantastic. Loved it!

If you’re looking for an authentic, friendly, and absolutely delicious Mexican dining experience, Agave is the place to go! The food is beyond amazing — especially their queso, which is hands down the best I’ve ever had. It’s creamy, flavorful, and honestly, I’d come here just for that.
One of the coolest things about Agave is that you can practice a little Spanish while ordering — and even if you mess up, no one judges you. The staff is incredibly kind, patient, and welcoming. They really get to know their regulars and make you feel right at home. The atmosphere is clean, vibrant, and full of great energy. Even the bathrooms are spotless, which says a lot about how much they care about the place. It’s the perfect spot to unwind, catch up with friends, or grab a quick bite between classes.
And let’s talk prices — super affordable, especially for college students on a budget. Great food, great service, great vibe. Agave is a hidden gem that deserves all the love. 🌮❤️
