Atlanta's Best

by lussuria

I LOVE this place! The bar is beautiful, the staff is helpful and knowledgeable, the chef is brilliant and his creations are delicious!

For me, the best part of this time of year (when the weather cools down) is being able to indulge in the white bean soup with Navajo fry bread sticks (so yummy~) with a wonderful Corzo Perfecto margarita.

Okay - I know where I'm going for dinner tonight!

• Pros: incredible food, great drinks, friendly service
• Cons: there's only one Agave...

Unassuming Elegance - I Love This Place

by grave girl

This lovely little restaurant has world-class cuisine at unmatched prices. The spices are layered with expert precision (though if you desire more heat, you have only to ask). The food is the freshest you will find anywhere. The tequila bar boasts an extensive and exceptional selection (with bartenders who know their products well).

My favorites are the spicy tequila shrimp and the chile seared halibut, though everything I've tried has been delicious. I haven't tried the vegetarian menu yet, but I intend to soon.

I love the "feel" of this place. It's so easy to set aside the pressures of the work day and relax here. The layout and the artwork are more than inviting.

Reservations are recommended and you can either call or set up a reservation online. Even so, I've dropped in and been seated timely.

One word of warning - though the chips and salsa are tasty, you'll regret filling up on them once your meal arrives.

• Pros: Superior Food, Impressive Service, Relaxed Ambiance
• Cons: none.

the absolute BEST!

by Scarlett R

My experiences at this restaurant have always been outstanding. I am consistently impressed by the food and the service. This is one of those rare places in which you feel the staff truly cares and will go out of their way to ensure that you have a wonderful night. It is a lost art in today's world and I'm truly grateful for their dedication and professionalism.

Every item I've had has been flavorful, fresh and completely satisfying (note - the portions are rather large so I always get dessert "to go" to enjoy later at home).

I'm truly addicted to the white bean soup. When I'm not feeling well, I actually dream about it (yes, it IS that great)! The seared tuna is wonderful, the scallops always perfectly prepared and I've never had seafood that tasted so fresh. The cayenne fried chicken and (this world's best) mashed potatoes is the ultimate comfort food and the grilled vegetable plate is the absolute best way to feel like you're eating healthy while indulging in decadence! The spices are masterfully blended so each bite has layers of flavor.

I would definitely recommend this restaurant to everyone who enjoys incredible food and genuinely friendly service - it is the absolute BEST!

(you can't beat the prices either!)

• Pros: amazing food and drink, great atmosphere, impressive service
• Cons: one margarita leads to two margaritas... :)
