As a couple who order Brussels sprouts every time we see them on the menu, we can say that these are up there with the best we’ve had. They have a great lunch menu, the veggie enchiladas and the blanco chipotle chicken enchiladas were amazing! Great prices, quick service, and a convenient location.

Great food and drink options. Coming from Texas I have pretty high standards for Mexican food and Agave has never let me down! Even better the staff is super friendly and courteous. One day after eating lunch with coworkers my car wouldn't start. While trying to get it going I accidentally left my laptop bag in the sidewalk (had to pull it out to get to jumpers). Like an idiot I then drove off. Our waiter saw this happen and took it upon himself to grab my bag. That small action quite possibly saved my Job! Just one of several experiences where I've seen Agave's staff go above and beyond.

This place is a nice upscale version to the typical Mexican cuisine. The atmosphere is very nice and has a great patio for when it warms up. The service was fast and excellent. My wife ordered the steak fajitas and the steak was seared perfectly. I got the duck tacos and other than one bite that had some cartilage, the meat was flavorful and tender. The margaritas are also fantastic! Heavy on the tequila side which is good for the price you pay. Overall, I recommend this place for for a nice night out. It's a tad spendy for Mexican food, but the quality makes up for it.

I've been coming to Issaquah Agave since they opened. I celebrated my 21st birthday with friends and family, and last year I celebrated my 30th here. The staff is always friendly and prompt. Food is an elevated spin on traditional Mexican food. If you ever want to try nicer tequilas, come in Tuesday's, get half price off top shelf tequila just make sure you Uber home ;-) it's a great spot to enjoy with friends and family, or to have a moment to yourself.

This is our 3rd visit to Agave and we have had great service each visit. Our first visit was on Mother's Day and the service was amazing. They were very busy but we were service quickly. Our food was great too. I've come for lunch with friends and again...very busy but you would never realize it with how quickly our food came through. Tonight we wanted to go out to dinner but worried about the wait time. It wasn't bad and we got a table quickly. We usually get tacos because we love TACOS. Our kids like their cheese quesadillas. It's nice that they offer fries with their kids meals too. The most important item (for me at least) is the Scratch Margarita. It's quite large and very well made. We will continue to make Agave our go-to for dinner in Issaquah.

They serve the food that others claim to have. Great food, amazing flavors. It's obvious they care about what hits the table. They even passed my litmus test of serving house fried tacos. Home made salsas too. All the other places should take notes if they want to remain in business. I will be a regular here.

What a great find! Cute restaurant in a cute area. Chips and salsa (two kinds) were complimentary and the both salsas were excellent. So was the prickly pear margarita that I had. I didn't notice a happy hour, but this was Sunday evening a little before 6, so maybe we'd missed it or it isn't on Sunday... ? Food came out super fast for the number of people in the restaurant! I was a little surprised, but it tasted great! I had the halibut entrée from the seasonal menu. The halibut might have been just a tad overcooked for my taste, but it still was very good. The ingredients that this restaurant pulled together with it really defined the entrée though. Sweet potatoes, spinach (which normally I hate, but it sure tasted great in this mix), and other ingredients really made the dish standout. For the size of the halibut, the price point was very good ($20). The restaurant has a huge patio eating area, that depending on the weather could be a really cozy place to have drinks and some food. We ate inside, which worked perfectly for us.

Another favorite Issaquah Happy Hour spot! The bar staff is friendly, happy hour food is great and reasonably priced. My only gripe would be that their closing time can be inconsistent, so if you plan to get in for happy hour, I'd suggest making it there right at 9pm to not risk being turned away due to the kitchen being closed early. We usually stop in for a couple of beers or micheladas, and a few bites. The chips and salsa are great (especially the verde), the nachos with skirt steak added are excellent (love the pickled onions and corn), the wings are good, as are the chicken taquitos. We've also done the carne asada from the dinner menu to share along with an order or two from the happy hour menu. Agave is the perfect spot for good friendly Mexican dinner with the family, late happy hour, and boasts an excellent tequila selection. It is better than Masa for sure, and about par with El 42- I'll continue to visit and recommend you do the same. Cheers!

Always busy but worth the wait. I can't get enough of their strawberry margaritas! Just a short walk from the highlands shopping area and Regal movie theater. Lots of free lot and street parking in the surrounding area. The bar is pretty small and fills up quickly but there is a fair amount of seating in the main dining area and outside in the glass-covered area with heat lamps. We always have a drink and a bite to eat here before our movies. The strawberry and prickly pear margaritas are AMAZING (I only wish they were larger, haha) and the tortilla soup is my favorite go-to. I don't care for cilantro and they are always very accommodating when I ask to have it left off/out of my food.

We came here with 2 of our friends and enjoyed our evening out. We were surprised that the bar only had tables that could seat 2 people, so we had to wait ~40 minutes to be seated. The decor is modern and attractive. We got to sit out in the glassed area with heat lamps lining the ceiling. It was mostly warm enough, except for where the air could enter through the glass edges. The chips and salsa were great, and we got 1 refill. The margaritas weren't strong, but they were tasty, and they even have some interesting options, like a smoky one that was very unique. The food was good. I enjoyed my duck tacos, and everyone at the table seemed happy. One item each was plenty for everyone. We would have had dessert, but they brought by the checks, so we made our way out. We enjoyed it, but probably wouldn't make a special trip to the plateau to come back.

Odd menu...fusion twists on Mexican but surprisingly, it’s all good. There is an enclosed patio with heaters but don’t be fooled...the gaps in the glass cause cold air to blow in on all of the tables and you’ll need a coat. This is a decent place for the price.

My wife and I love this place, from the masa encrusted calamari to the fajitas, and their unique twist on cocktails. Outdoor seating is great in the summer, and there's some heated semi-outdoor seating that's comfortable enough even in the winter (quieter than the main dining area too). My kids say their water is "tasty like Red Robin". Um, okay. Simple menu means easy choices so you can enjoy your meal.

Very tasty and Oh So Tender Pork Carnitas! The MACHINE of a bartender (I ate at the bar) whom I think was named Jose juiced about 300 limes WHILE delivering timely and attentive service! He was Johnny on the Spot with service and really knew his way around a cocktail! Knocking a star off for personal preference. I'm just not a snooty diner, and they seem to cater to that crowd. Not sure what I expected. (Thurston Howell III voice) It IS the Highlands after all!

Great food and drink options.  Coming from Texas I have pretty high standards for Mexican food and Agave has never let me down!  Even better the staff is super friendly and courteous.

One day after eating lunch with coworkers my car wouldn't start. While trying to get it going I accidentally left my laptop bag in the sidewalk (had to pull it out to get to jumpers).  Like an idiot I then drove off.

Our waiter saw this happen and took it upon himself to grab my bag.  That small action quite possibly saved my Job!  

Just one of several experiences where I've seen Agave's staff go above and beyond.

This place is a nice upscale version to the typical Mexican cuisine. The atmosphere is very nice and has a great patio for when it warms up. The service was fast and  excellent. My wife ordered the steak fajitas and the steak was seared perfectly. I got the duck tacos and other than one bite that had some cartilage, the meat was flavorful and tender. The margaritas are also fantastic! Heavy on the tequila side which is good for the price you pay. Overall, I recommend this place for for a nice night out. It's a tad spendy for Mexican food, but the quality makes up for it.

Food is an elevated spin on traditional Mexican food. If you ever want to try nicer tequilas, come in Tuesday's, get half price off top shelf tequila just make sure you Uber home ;-) it's a great spot to enjoy with friends and family, or to have a moment to yourself.

This is our 3rd visit to Agave and we have had great service each visit. Our first visit was on Mother's Day and the service was amazing. They were very busy but we were service quickly. Our food was great too. I've come for lunch with friends and again...very busy but you would never realize it with how quickly our food came through. Tonight we wanted to go out to dinner but worried about the wait time. It wasn't bad and we got a table quickly.

We usually get tacos because we love TACOS. Our kids like their cheese quesadillas. It's nice that they offer fries with their kids meals too.

The most important item (for me at least) is the Scratch Margarita. It's quite large and very well made.

We will continue to make Agave our go-to for dinner in Issaquah.

What a great find! Cute restaurant in a cute area. Chips and salsa (two kinds) were complimentary and the both salsas were excellent. So was the prickly pear margarita that I had. I didn't notice a happy hour, but this was Sunday evening a little before 6, so maybe we'd missed it or it isn't on Sunday... ?

Food came out super fast for the number of people in the restaurant! I was a little surprised, but it tasted great! I had the halibut entrée from the seasonal menu. The halibut might have been just a tad overcooked for my taste, but it still was very good. The ingredients that this restaurant pulled together with it really defined the entrée though. Sweet potatoes, spinach (which normally I hate, but it sure tasted great in this mix), and other ingredients really made the dish standout. For the size of the halibut, the price point was very good ($20).

The restaurant has a huge patio eating area, that depending on the weather could be a really cozy place to have drinks and some food. We ate inside, which worked perfectly for us.

Another favorite Issaquah Happy Hour spot! The bar staff is friendly, happy hour food is great and reasonably priced. My only gripe would be that their closing time can be inconsistent, so if you plan to get in for happy hour, I'd suggest making it there right at 9pm to not risk being turned away due to the kitchen being closed early.

We usually stop in for a couple of beers or micheladas, and a few bites. The chips and salsa are great (especially the verde), the nachos with skirt steak added are excellent (love the pickled onions and corn), the wings are good, as are the chicken taquitos. We've also done the carne asada from the dinner menu to share along with an order or two from the happy hour menu.

Agave is the perfect spot for good friendly Mexican dinner with the family, late happy hour, and boasts an excellent tequila selection. It is better than Masa for sure, and about par with El 42- I'll continue to visit and recommend you do the same. Cheers!

Always busy but worth the wait. I can't get enough of their strawberry margaritas!

Just a short walk from the highlands shopping area and Regal movie theater. Lots of free lot and street parking in the surrounding area. The bar is pretty small and fills up quickly but there is a fair amount of seating in the main dining area and outside in the glass-covered area with heat lamps.

We always have a drink and a bite to eat here before our movies. The strawberry and prickly pear margaritas are AMAZING (I only wish they were larger, haha) and the tortilla soup is my favorite go-to. I don't care for cilantro and they are always very accommodating when I ask to have it left off/out of my food.

by Michael S. - 3/12/2019

We came here with 2 of our friends and enjoyed our evening out. We were surprised that the bar only had tables that could seat 2 people, so we had to wait ~40 minutes to be seated.

The decor is modern and attractive. We got to sit out in the glassed area with heat lamps lining the ceiling. It was mostly warm enough, except for where the air could enter through the glass edges.

The chips and salsa were great, and we got 1 refill. The margaritas weren't strong, but they were tasty, and they even have some interesting options, like a smoky one that was very unique.

The food was good. I enjoyed my duck tacos, and everyone at the table seemed happy. One item each was plenty for everyone. We would have had dessert, but they brought by the checks, so we made our way out. We enjoyed it, but probably wouldn't make a special trip to the plateau to come back.

Upscale Mexican fare that is above average for the Seattle area. The staff is always friendly and courteous too. 

If you're a true Mexican food aficionado then the food in and around Seattle is likely too sweet for you. Agave is no exception. Every dish suffers from an over abundance of sweetness, even the fajitas. However, the food here is not as sweet as most other Mexican restaurants in the area. 

FYI, the green salsa is AWESOME!

The Duck Street Tacos are amazing. So are the stuffed Zucchini blossoms. Didn't appreciate the loud banging music on a Sunday morning. Maybe try to tailor the music to the time of day/day of week... Also the hostess was dressed in almost nothing. I'm not a prude but a black lace top with no pants and what seemed to be a black bathing suit underneath with gray thigh high stockings... what in the world?! If a pair of black bike shorts had been added it would have been cute, but without pants... bordering on x-rated.
Everything else, food and service was awesome. Of particular note was the baby octopus salad. Wow! Delicious, but maybe warn customers about the chopped up raw jalapenos in the salad. They're like nuclear bombs.

All time favorite restaurant. I've never had ONE thing there I haven't absolutely LOVED! If I could order the whole menu every time I went, I would! My go-to is usually the nachos with chicken. Instead of using cheap cheddar/jack cheese, Agave used cotija! The most delicious Mexican cheese around. Happy hour is very impressive and their margaritas are to die for!!
Staff is always super friendly and prompt, you never have to wait too long. The whole atmosphere/vibes of the restaurant are superb. Well done!

Having lived in Texas,  I've eaten a lot of traditional and contemporary Mexican food. Agave is by far the best Mexican restaurant I've eaten at, hands down.  

Sure, it's a bit off the beaten path.  Sure, it's a small venue.  But the options available are wonderful, the flavors are great, and quality is high. Enjoyed the salsa, the chicken enchiladas,  and the jicama slaw. Will return again and again!

We discovered Agave about 3 years ago and we probably eat here 3-4 times a month, it is our go to restaurant.  Service is usually very good for us so no complaints there.  Between my husband and me, we have tried most items on the menu.  My favorites by far are the chili relleno or the beef enchiladas (try them with the white creamy sauce).   I also like the crispy fish tacos or the seafood enchiladas.  My husband loves the carne asada plate or the chimi as well as the chicken wing appetizer.  Their refried beans are a must and the chips and salsa are addictive. The cheese queso appetizer is fantastic as well (mix some green salsa with the cheese).  Also love their house margarita.  We love the food as it tastes homemade and so unlike the typical over cheesed over sauced, greasy Mexican food at other places in Issaquah.  We will probably be eating here tomorrow as I need my relleno fix!

I've been going to Agave for a while now and have been pleasantly surprised every visit. While it is not on the cheap end, it is a fair price for good clean contemporary Mexican food. I've yet to try anything on the menu that is a 10/10, but everything is at least an 8 or a 9. That is to say that I have never been disappointed with anything there. The staff is always very friendly and the owner is a great guy. Worth trying it out, and ask for what specials they have.

Best food, service exceptional, patio, happy hour WOW. At first glance the Agave seemed to be another version of the Cactus or similar style contemporary dining establishment. Once inside, the amazing decor and huge tequila wall lends a welcoming atmosphere. The happy hour is as good as any i've seen, fresh made corn tortillas with chicken and mole... yummy. $4 margaritas that are actually very good, check. Try the bacon wrapped Jalapenos, you will be hooked. Always packed is the beautiful patio, with some reggae music this place is a real hit not surprisingly. The chips DO NOT cost anything even though people seem to think that is something to forever remember... They are missing out!!!! more for me and my friends!! we're gonna go tonight.

Savory, flavorful and good for you. It is rare that I will return to a restaurant time and again as I enjoy the adventure of new dining experiences, but I have found a home at Agave. Drawing from family recipes which feature some surprising flavors this menu is worth working all the way through from starters to dessert. I especially enjoy the nachos (which feature organic beef) and their special three-cheese blend. Yummy. The fajitas as bursting with flavor (try the chicken and beef combination) and the steak was seasoned and grilled to perfection! Don't forget a hand blended margarita or a shot of premium tequila to get the party started. I think I'll head there again right now!

by Tony C. - 9/10/2009

Let me start by revealing one of the best kept secrets of this place ... they're almost completely organic. They use free range, grass fed beef, and eggs from humanely treated chickens. This is much under advertised in my opinion (only disclosed in the fine print under the title text on the menus).

Ok, so that aside, on to the Agave experience:

Food: The food is very fresh. In the sense that it is made with fresh ingredients, but also in the sense that the dishes on the menu are interesting and to my experiences, fresh. I regret that I don't recall many of the options, as I had no intention of writing a review when I was there, but I had the wild mushroom burrito (a wild mushroom taco is also an option) and enjoyed it very much. I can say that the Agave nachos are the best I've had anywhere with their interesting toppings of pickled onions, corn, beans, and so forth with a combination of three cheeses including some form of Mexican Feta sort of thing. The bottomless corn chips and salsa were good too, with some good salsa options.

Drinks: I like margaritas (on the rocks) and there are plenty to choose from. There was one called something like "the Cadillac" or something like that which included a shot of Grand Marnier on the side, which went down very well. There are some 75+ tequilas to choose from if you're into that sort of thing, and I understand they're planning on upping that to 100+ including providing the option to try "floats" of tequila. Beer selection was ok.

Service: I've been a few times and I'll say that the service has improved from "very keen" to "very good" over the last few weeks. Prompt, courteous and helpful.

Great. Love it. Good for kids and adults, inside and outside. The place is clean contemporary and all the ingredients are fresh, from the kitchen to the bar. Chips are free and the service is fast, I was not forced with rice and beans for every meal, I could choose what I wanted for my plate which I choose grill asparagus and organic black beans, those were very good, my wife order the natural steak fajitas and those were excellent, You can spend $7 or build your own combination and spend $11, that is an good price for for a dinner. their tequila selection is big ant the margaritas are great for the value $6.00 reg price and $4.00 on HH. Plus they now have Tequila Tuesday, 1/2 off all the tequilas every Tuesday and happy hour every day.
I will come back for sure with my family or friends, great job guys, keep it up
