    We found this gem 11 years ago randomly! It’s a MUST! Absolutely the best restaurant in t ATL! IYKYK! If you don’t, go and you’ll know! There is not 1 thing I’ve ever ordered that was not phenomenal! Don’t get me started on their desserts! Gah! They make their own cinnamon whip cream! Best tequila bar too!

They owner Jack Sobel stopped by the table and we had a great chat. I highly recommend Agave, date night, family get together in the private room really feels like home. Thank you to our server, Dani for a wonderful evening!

    I recently had the pleasure of dining at Agave in Atlanta, GA, and it was an experience worth sharing. From the moment I walked in, the warm and inviting atmosphere set the tone for a delightful evening. The decor beautifully blended rustic charm with modern touches, creating a cozy yet vibrant space. The service was exemplary, our server was attentive without being intrusive. Speaking of the menu, Agave specializes in Southwest cuisine, the guacamole was a perfect start of creamy with just the right amount of spice. For the main course, I enjoyed Diablo crawfish pasta which was generously filling. My dining companion chose the Rio Rancho burrito cooked to perfection served with spinach rice. The drink selection complemented the meal beautifully. I enjoyed a refreshing spicy jalapeño margarita that was expertly crafted, amazing balance of sweetness and tartness. To top off our meal, we indulged in the chocolate cake for dessert. It was decadently rich and paired wonderfully with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Overall, Agave exceeded my expectations with its delicious food, attentive service, and inviting ambiance. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience in Atlanta. I can't wait to return and explore more of their menu!

    My friends and I had a great time at Agave! I tried the Maine Lobster & Shrimp Enchilada, which was packed with flavor and had just the right amount of kick—not overly spicy, but if you’re sensitive to spice, this might not be the spot for you. Our meal started with chips and salsa, and the chips were fresh and perfectly seasoned. My frozen strawberry margarita was enjoyable, on par with a classic margarita. The restaurant was lively and bustling with patrons, and while the parking lot is compact, valet service is available. Overall, I’d definitely return for the great food and fun atmosphere!

    They split our entree and made each plate look like it was a single entree. The plates looked beautiful and the servers were excellent! They were funny and on top of their work.

    First and foremost, Brea was just perfect. We celebrated my birthday here and as someone who worked in fine dining, she didn't miss a step. We were in the "patio" dining area, which originally was a little too bright for the ambience I was hoping for, but Brea took care of it and turned some of the overheads off for us. She was always there when we needed her, but never hovered unnecessarily. Thank you for the memorable birthday (: The food was also super yummy, but even despite looking at the menu before arriving, there were so many delicious sounding options that it was hard to choose. I will be returning.
