| During this crazy quarantine time, Agave is offering a bit of "normal". They have their regular menu, PLUS Margarita's to-go. And honestly after years of trying Margaritas all over town and even other states, Agave has the best anywhere. Hands down. I always get the Skinny Chica, because I just love tequila, lime juice and agave. Simple and well made. And even in this take out craziness, the food is perfect. Like coming home. I sincerely pray this restaurant makes it through. We'll keep ordering take out, and I recommend it highly if you can. Salud! |

| 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. |

Light and refreshing and only a hint of the smokiness. Definitely try the Diablo wings! So good and flavorful. We also had the tacos dorados and fajitas which were pretty decent as well. Wish it wasn't so far away from our actual home in Seattle. |

| 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. |

The restaurant is mainly split into three - the bar (which has seating for people eating a meal, too), another section for people with meals, and just outside. The atmosphere is nice, the service is fast, and the food is pretty good. Highly recommend! |

They served it on a cutting board along with a small bowl of black beans, roasted green pepper, guacamole, salsa, picked cauliflower, and flour tortillas. Beautiful presentation! Dining on the patio is a must during warm summer nights...oh, and sipping on their scratch margaritas. |

Ordered street duck tacos and chicken crema enchiladas and we were super happy! The food was amazing!
Good house margs too. |

It made it easier to maneuver with a herd instead of waiting outside waiting for kids to finish. I am so grateful they gave us a place to land and order lunch. |

| We arrived at 5 PM, so getting a table wasn't a problem. We had a 2 year old and they were ready - crayons and a kids menu. Our server was very friendly and very quick. The chips and salsa were very good (they have kids salsa also) and refills were on time. The food was served promptly and was very good. All around, a great meal. |

| 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. |

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! |

| Agave is a nice local Mexican restaurant with several locations in the area. This review is about the one in Issaquah-Highlands. We like this place because it has good Margaritas and dinner choices. The indoors seating area is fairly small but is expanded upon with an attached glass atrium. There is also outdoor dining weather permitting. Parking can be a little tight but we've always managed to park within a couple hundred feet of the door. |

| We came for lunch and absolutely loved the homemade chips and two salsa choices. We had the chicken tacos and the chili seared tuna tacos. Both were tasty but I was surprised at the quickness of the chicken and the size of the tuna. From other fish tacos I have had I expected fish that would not only fit in the tacobut woukd be bite sized. Not these. The piece covered the taco which might have made the portion seem generous, but in reality it was very difficult to eat. Don't know why they couldn't make smaller pieces. I would go back however. |

| Could hardly read the menu it was so dark but was intrigued by the dishes with rabbit, duck, lamb. Variety of enchiladas and tacos and more. Tacos were fresh and warm, with two kinds of salsa, one standard but fresh and chunky, the other very spicy. I had chicken enchilada with asparagus and sweet potato fries while my oartner had seafood enchilada with rice and beans. Our table was near the door and we got a blast of cold air when it opened - just make sure you get any other table. Service was cheerful, attentive and quick. Prices were quite reasonable. Lots of space for outdoor seating in good weather and for enclosed with geat lamps seating when it is mildly chilly. |

| 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! |

| Hubs and I visiting for a week and remembered liking this place about 4 years ago when we were here...couldn't remember why...I remembered tonight! I ordered the skirt steak tacos and they were perfect! Steak was seasoned and cooked superbly, loved the toppings, and their salsa is really amazing, as well. We had to request a 2nd bowl. Hubby loves chimichangas and said his shredded beef one was "good, not great." Hence the 4 stars. (also, our server was a little skittish, though other servers came around as well, so we didn't miss a beat) |

| Our first visit, and we were impressed by the nice design of the restaurant, especially the glassed-in outdoor area where we ate. Now that the weather is turning cooler and damp, you can still enjoy the feeling of al fresco dining. The second thing was the eclectic menu; even the usual entrée seemed to have a twist. My wife had the carnitas tacos and I had the chicken enchiladas. My dish had a crema sauce and queso fresca instead of the usual red or green choice, and was stuffed with white meat chicken; delicious. Rice and beans are an add-on for only $3, so you have a choice to have or not. The tacos were also generously filled. The only comment my wife made was that if the meat was seasoned after it was shredded, it would have been tastier. We will definitely try again. |

| If you are looking for authentic or your typical American Mexican restaurant do not go here. If you want to try a different type of Mexican cuisine then this is the place. You will not find any cheddar cheese in any of their dishes. Even their nachos had a queso white cheese blend with a taste heavy on the feta. The added pickled tomatoes was also a surprise. They have a large selection of drinks although no pina coladas. |

| 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. |

| Came here with 2 kids and 3 adults, everyone left happy. Fajitas were a hit, good quality ingredients. Kids shared tacos that came with sweet potato fries, they loved the fries so much we had to order more. I had the butternut squash and spinach enchiladas, I really did not like them, they mole sauce on them was way overloaded with a spice that tasted like cardamom and completely overpowered the dish. Another friend ordered the steak tacos and enjoyed them too. Nice margaritas too! I like that they don't force rice and beans on you - they're optional as a side for $2.50 more. So apart from my dish that I would not order again, we left happy. Service was a bit slow, think they were too busy for the number of wait staff or else we just got a slow server. |

| This is a popular place... I am going to try it again when it is not so busy. I did not like the texture or the Bland taste of my fish tacos. I had to dig to find the fish. Ha Ha. The restaurant is fairly expensive for Mexican food and charges extra for both beans and rice. Having said that they offer up great salsa a chips. The place was busy hard to say what the service would be mid week. This is in the Issaquah highlands with limited restaurants. |

The first taco was the shredded pork and I enjoyed it very much. The second taco was the beef and I enjoyed not so much as the first but still OK. The green chili salsa was fantastic and the chips were fresh and tasty. Just the way I like them. Lots of families with small children were there and everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. Lunch for my wife and I was under $20. I will definitely go back. |

| We've enjoyed this restaurant a few times. It's great to have a delicious Mexican restaurant in the area. The margaritas are tasty and the jalapeño cheese dip is great without being too spicy. The pork carnitas sopes are my favorite, while my husband prefers any of the enchiladas with the mole sauce. Make sure to order the cilantro jicama slaw as a side--if you like slaw, this is one of the tastiest ones you'll ever have. There is inside and outside dining. It's very casual and informal, but the service is very good. |

| I've been going to Agave off & on over the years since it first opened in the Highlands. The food is consistently fresh and delicious. A couple favorites are their grilled asparagus (mine) and the sweet potato fries (my kids). If you've been to Mexico, you'll appreciate how fresh their Ceviche is. The service has been consistently slow over the years, it can be hard to get a waiter's attention whether it's for water or your check. If you can, sit at Donny's table. He's the BEST. He got me drinking tequila again (needed the right kind!) and he's consistently attentive, he will take care of you. |

Chips and salsa are served without charge no matter what you order and both are delicious. They are adding a covered outdoor area to the restaurant which will expand their seating and the outdoor patio will reopen when the weather is warmer. The service is friendly and prompt and the decor is cosy. |

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! |

| Although arguably, the best Mexican food most Americans are likely to get comes from a street vendor, close to or South of the border, sometimes you just want to break out of the stereotypical northern Mexican dishes, that are, as one comedian joked, all made from the same three ingredients. Agave Cocina y Tequilas offers something different, delivering exactly as they say on their website, "Agave serves contemporary Mexican food. Hand-crafted using fresh, natural ingredients" with emphasis on health and sustainability. The atmosphere is casual, modern, and stylish, so there are no piñatas, hanging from the rafters, no pictures of Pancho Villa hanging on the wall. I especially recommend their seafood dishes. Service was very good, and I was surprised that two adults could get dinner, an appetizer, and drinks for less than $40. Definitely will return! |

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 want crisp romaine (in preference to iceberg), I want a zippy, interesting salad dressing and on a steak salad, I want a properly cooked (to order) steak and I want it flavorful and tender. I LOVE their Flat Iron steak salad STILL! They remain, over at least a two year period, my favorite healthful restaurant. This is the Agave in Issaquah...have not tried the other one yet.
We went as a couple, but this place is very kid friendly...early in the evening. |

| Very, Very slow service (literally 15 minute wait to place our drink order after being seated and THEN we were 'later' able to place our dinner order). The wait staff and kitchen were out of sync, overwhelmed and we were disappointed.
The chimi's were watered down (as were side dishes of pinto beans on two separate platings). The spinach, seafood salad was poorly plated (all the seafood was buried under the spinach leaves and well hidden) and it was sandy/gritty and tasted too briny (eg, did they buy the seafood off a passing truck in a glass pickle jar?)
Would not go back. |

Not to mention that they have probably the best tequila selection in the northwest.
Finally a good mexican restaurant definatelly comming back. |

| Always have a great time at Agave....sometimes a little too much fun. Tony and Donnie are great, 1/2 price Tequila nights on Tuesday will be the death of me. There are always interesting people at the bar and the only downside is during Hockey season when Donnie has a boring hockey game on all the time. Just kidding Donnie. |

| 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. It's half off all tequila shots on tuesdays>:) |

| Eaten here several times with friends and family (including young kids) and enjoyed it each time. Favorite dish is actually an appetizer- BBQ shrimp skewers. Be sure to ask for hot salsa which is delicious (warning: it's spicy) especially with the never empty bowl of chips they give you. |

| seattles finest mexican cuisine – it was a great experiense, to begin with they were very welcoming, my wife and I had a couple of really good prickly pear margaritas which I'd never even heard off, their soft halibut tacos are delicius made with (HOMEMADE CORN TORTILLAS) with grilled sparragus and black beans, my wife had the flank steak salad which was very good to. Their prices are very reasonable considering the quality food they are serving. Will definitely be back again to try some more items that looked good..... |

The wait staff was one of the most friendly that I've experienced - almost too friendly :) We'll go back, but probably with a coupon. It's not terribly expensive, but it is for Mexican ($11-15 per plate). We were just happy to find a good, affordable place on the Plateau! |

| Agave. I love this place! The food is so fresh! It tastes fabulous. I have not had one single thing that was not delicious. The sauces are incredible - and the dessert is so delicious as well. LOVE THE CHURROS. They are the best I've ever had. My whole family loves this place. I used to like the typical chain mexican places - but will never be happy at those again. Highly recommended!
Not a very big restaurant (size wise) but it's quaint and comfortable. The atmosphere at night is nice too - candles lit. The photos on the website don't do the place justice really. |

| 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! |

| 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 |

| Great Drinks, Great Food, Great Price. The tequila list is long and has a wide range of tasty tequilas. The signature drinks are delish. I recommend the Guava Mojito highly. The food is fresh, clearly made from scratch, tasty, and creative at the same time. A great place for adults and well behaved children. Good prices, great variety, very friendly service. Nice ambiance. Agave is a gem in the Issaquah Highlands. |

| Not Your Typical Mexican Joint. There are typically two kinds of restaurant reviewers. Those who like lots of food and a cheap price and those who are looking for quality cusine and will spend an extra dollar for it. If you want free chips and salsa and lots of cheeze, beans, rice and the usual Mexican fare that is available on every street corner, don't eat here. I don'[t like typical Mexican food the way it's served in this country. It's usually piles carbs and fat and I leave feeling like I just ate a cow. I don't know about you, but I could lose a few pounds.
Try Agave for really unique lighter fare and distinctive flavors like wild mushroom and spinach quesadillas. The nachos are...read more |
