Editorial Review for AGAVE – by Sandra Ramani

The Scene
Smooth adobe walls, spruce-latticed ceilings and flickering candles help create the stylishly relaxed vibe. Sit by the tall front windows watching West Village strollers, or settle into the warm, spacious back dining room. An informed, unobtrusively friendly staff takes care of newcomers and the slew of Agave addicts alike.

The Food
The menu offers fresh, intricately flavored twists on Southwestern fare, in generous portions. Standout appetizers include red snapper seviche, lamb and manchego taquitos and perfect guacamole. Cumin croutons, spiced pecans and jicama enhance the hearty salads. Quesadillas and tacos are kicked up a notch with barbecued-duck picadillo or Maine lobster fillings, accented by mango pico or sweet plantains. Well-prepared skirt steak and Angus short ribs with a delicate mole are entree favorites. Save room for Mexican vanilla creme brulee or cider-glazed, pecan-stuffed apples with ice cream--then come back for one of the best brunches in town.

WHOA WHOA WHOA! At first, I thought this restaurant had the BEST burrito EVER because I discovered this place hung-over, but then I drove all the way from my apartment in NJ to Manhattan just to try it again and now I'm HOOKED! There are around 1,000 Mexican Restaurants between my house and this one, but I wouldn't go anywhere else. And their burrito already comes with all the goods on it.... None of this "can you add this and can you add that." These guys know how to make one damn good burrito!!! My roommate and I give it 4 thumbs up!

I recently moved in the neighbourhood and i tried agave a couple of times and loved it. The food is great, try the fajitas, service is super friendly and the drinks are awesome. Feel free to ask any question to your waiter cause they know everything about the menu and the many tequilas they have at the bar. It definitely is my new hang out spot since i eat out several times a week and this place i can afford :)

Pros: service,food,drinks
