   We had a reservation we sat on time. Drink order slow to take. Got appetizer before we ordered food. We got our food quick. Portion size small for the price. Prices were high. The atmosphere was very very loud. One big open room with bar. Couldnt hear conversations going on at our table. Server never came to check on us

   I don't understand the hype around this restaurant. The food was very good and creative, but short of being great. The service was mediocre. The noise level was exceedingly high, with nothing in the restaurant decor able to soften it There were nachos on the floor by my seat that were never cleaned up before we sat down. The bar was hopping, so if that is your scene, this is a great place to go.

   Great dining experience from start to finish. The young man who seated my party very kindly gave us a different table when I asked. Our waiter, Isaac, was personable, efficient and attentive. He read our cues and understood we wanted to talk a lot and enjoy our meal, so he was there only when we needed him! The food and drinks were delicious as always!

   Once we were seated we got our drink order taken. We got our chips and queso before the drinks. Our waiter finally brought us our drinks but forgot my boyfriend’s drink. Asked him if he wanted anything to drink after already taking his drink order and forgetting it! Then throughout the evening one of the servers kept trying to bring us food and drinks that weren’t ours! This was our very first visit and I’m not sure if it was worth the hype.

   Fantastic food, drink, and service. We ordered a margarita, nachos, corn soup, and a shrimp burrito. The corn soup is very thick but great flavor. The shrimp in the burrito had the best grilled flavor I've ever had on any protein. The guacamole on top of the nachos was so good we wished we would have ordered an entire appetizer of only guacamole. Next time! Reservations strongly recommended no matter what time of day you go. Enjoy! We will be back!

   Open table reservation requested table type. Wasn’t available even though we waited an extra 30 mins as they assured us the people were just leaving. In the end they squeezed our party of six on to a four top. Cramped to say the least. Dishes are heavy on cheese but light on protein. Chips and dip extra. Fair enough, but it needs to be something unique not like it came out of a jar and the chips are over salted. Waiter never asked how we would like the fajita meat prepared. Served close to raw. Sent it back. Came back well done and tough as old shoe leather. Fajita veggies consisted of 10% peppers, 10% onions and 80% tomato. However, there was so much liquid in the fajita pan, it was almost a stew. Plus the tomatoes included the cores. Lazy prep work. Expensive for any Mexican restaurant anywhere in the country. Margaritas are their strength. Over $200 for six ppl and only 3 had one drink each.

   Agave used to be my favorite..unfortunately they have homogenized the food so it lacks flavor. They have jacked the prices up and the interior is cold and drafty. No free chips/salsa…. It’s $7.75 and fajitas are now $33. I will say the servers and hosts are still awesome.

   Food was good. But the place was cold. We ate with winter coats on. So did others.

    Not sure why it was so cold in the restaurant. Most patrons kept their winter coats on during their meals. Hopefully it was just a temporary issue with the heating system and not an indication that the system is not capable of heating the space.
