I had to do a field visit in the area and was told by the staff of that facility that there were some great places to eat in the neighborhood. Enter Blue Agave... my husband met me and I thought this is right up my alley! How we were wrong! When I say we were the only ones ( the first for the evening) we were the only ones in the place. We ordered a couple drinks, calamari and 4 tacos... it is Taco Tuesday after all! The place started to fill up and it was a nice vibe. WE NEVER GOT THE TACOS!!!! WHEN I SAY EVERYODY WHO ARRIVED AFTER US GOT THEIR FOOD BEFORE US. (YES I AM YYELLING CAUSE IM MAD) the waitress was sooo damn nonchalant when we inquired about how long it was going to take for FOUR tacos.... let me cut it short I wanted to like the spot, wanted to bring my girlfriends back WE SPEND.. .. sadly NONE OF US WILL BE RETURNING. PERHAPS WE WERE A LITTLE TOO DARK .on our way to Park Slope where our business and dollars are appreciated cause I'm still hungry dammit.

We went on a Sunday and the waitresses, I don't know if they were bored or tired, but they served VERY reluctantly and with a look of "I don't want to work!" Very easy, you don't like your job, you are bored or tired. Rest or look for another job that you like.

Disappointed with the Service I’ve been to this restaurant several times, but only because my wife absolutely loves coming here with her friends. However, every time she and I come alone, the experience is completely different. My wife and her friends, who happen to be lighter-skinned, always receive great service—waitresses are friendly, attentive, and even make suggestions. But when it’s just the two of us, that friendliness disappears entirely.
The service we get is noticeably colder. We’re barely checked on, and there’s no effort to make us feel welcome. On my most recent visit, we weren’t checked up on at all after receiving our food. When it came time to pay, the waitress dropped off the check and never came back. After waiting much longer than necessary, we went to the register and found her sitting on a bucket in the kitchen.
To be clear, the owner has always been amazing, and this review isn’t about him or the restaurant itself. This is solely about the female staff who work here. The difference in how we’re treated compared to other tables is stark and unacceptable. My wife can continue to come here with her friends and support this place, but as for me, I won’t be returning.

I ordered their amazing guacamole for a party. They fulfilled and delivered in half an hour! And it was the best appetizer of the evening. Their customer service is fantastic.

Jorge is back??I believe that good service and a good bartender make a difference and obviously a good chef, the three things we look for in one place. I had the honor of trying one of Jorge new cocktails, aperol mezcal margarita. I can't tell you more. Just visit the place and try the Tesoro tequila, very good!! Welcome back

I came here for the very first time with my boyfriend & we both loved everything. I had a coconut frozen margarita & he had a strawberry frozen margarita the drinks was strong but also amazing. The food omg soo delicious we finished everything. That was served, in our dinner. Dessert was also tasty. Me & my bf both had an amazing & relaxing night at this restaurant. Thank you to Emiliano H for the good & respectful customer service, me & my bf will definitely be back again for the delicious food & drinks!!!

This restaurant is one of the best in Bay Ridge. Great food, great staff, and a wonderful patio. Love it!
Drinks are weak. Good service. Food good. Good menu options. Had a full pitcher of sangria and no alcohol. disappointing

We’ve been going to blue agave since they opened and ordering take out for years. We were denied entry with our service dog tonight, and I was surprised by the lack of training and empathy we received.
