After a long day “road trippin”…good Mexican food never fails. Score one for us, as this place serves up some very good food. It was busy inside, but we didn’t have to wait, and we had no reservation… lucky us. Good flavors, not too spicy, and the service was spot on. We started off with 2 ice cold beers and some molotes with chips and some killer sauces. My Chili Rellano mole style, was delicious. It was a great choice!

The premium tequila and mascala flight is a must do. It was an experience.

I ordered the ribeye. It was low in temp, mushy, and tasted disgusting. The bed of potatoes and mushrooms it came on were also mushy and incredibly bland. I had to recook and season the whole dish to make it even semi-edible.

This place gives you real oaxacan Mexican Food. The plates and platters are fantastic and fresh you can see them making it right before you. They use many traditional spices you don’t normally see around here and makes the flavors and experience very unique and worth your time.

Food was amazing and the service was great! We got the less sweet mole sauce and it was perfect. Not to mention they use organic chicken. The guacamole was tasty plus the chips are salted to perfection. The Jamaica was also so good not to sweet.

Look, I forgot to mark down the ingredients of the two delicious cocktails I had at Agave Uptown’s happy hour but rest assured, they truly were delicious! I especially appreciated their herbal & vegetal qualities and of course, the mezcal. Plus, the happy hour eats are a steal!

The only reservations they would give us were at 8:15, but to our surprise we were almost the only folks in the restaurant. The restaurant has a beautiful interior. Chips, salsa and guacamole were very good, along with the fresh coconut drink and fresh fruit smoothie. Dinner was slow to arrive, and very soon they began signaling that they wished we would wrap it up and get going.

Great workday lunch option. Nice enough to bring a client for something casual but also perfect for a team lunch. The mole is definitely a highlight, but everything I’ve tried has been good! Yum!

Nachos are warm and fresh. The steak rancheros is really good too.
