The Scene – A tiny open kitchen, a tinier bar and rows of dark, heavily varnished tables are all comfortably squeezed into this attractive shotgun space near the Cotton Mill lofts. Distressed support beams and rough, exposed brick combine with the usual assortment of Navajo artifacts and small Southwestern-themed prints to create a space that's inviting and warm. Service is attentive and extremely friendly. – – The Food – Familiar and upscale Southwestern dishes mostly succeed at this popular Cabbagetown spot. Highlights include tasty shredded pork tacos, comforting…

BAD FOOD QUALITY AND POOR SERVICE

by Robin Davis at Citysearch

Agave is aweful. It was an ok place in the past, but a change in the kitchen chef and staff and taken this place to the dogs. And, litterally, my pets would not even eat these leftovers.

Trust me...the food is bad and taste like instant mix junk.

The meat was overcooked and the taste was not good.

This place is living off of their old reputation, but as of December of 2009, it has gone down.

Do not waste your time or your money. Taco Bell is better than Agave is currently.

  • Pros: The history was good, but Agave has now gone downhill
  • Cons: Bad Food, Bad Food, Bad Food!!!

Atlanta's Best

by lussuria at Citysearch

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 at Citysearch

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.
