Not too overdone for atmosphere so the place has a clean aesthetic as far as authentic Mexican restaurants go. The food is good because it’s always consistent, never overly seasoned nor bland and worth the price. The people here are always friendly and proficiently bilingual.

So this is a joy of a Mexican Resturant!!! I 12/10 recommend. Family owned. From when we walked in we felt like family. Our server was absolutely 100% amazing! Our food came out hot, fresh, and full of flavor. I ordered the Fajitas and they were sizzling hot !! Everything was amazing and we will definitely be back for sure!!! Thanks again for great food!!

Went here for lunch the other day and was so happy with our food and service. Food came out quick and the waitress was super helpful and courteous. Give her a raise! I do wish their menu had some pictures of what some dishes were and also let customers know they pay at front when they’re ready. Other than that yummy food and great service!!

The service was exceptional! Kindness and smiles! The person who sat us even asked if the temperature was okay in the building for us, that was so thoughtful!! The food was amazing and was served to us very quickly!!! Chips were warm and fresh! Salsa had good flavor. The birria was flavorful as well as the chimichangas! Congratulations on opening and wishing you much success and blessings!! Thanks J&C

This is as close to authentic as you can get without going to Mexico. The food is fresh, not over seasoned, cooked to order, and is pleasantly plated. Pleanty of food for the price Atmosphere felt authentic as well, and is the cleanest restaurant that I have ever witnessed. Service was prompt, friendly and attentive the entire time. Even the restrooms are clean.

Went in there to get an order to go, restaurant has a lovely aesthetic. They even greeted us at the door to be seated. Awesome customer service! Plenty of food options as well, I went with the Carne Asada fries. Which was delicious. Would come back here again

The service is great! The food is great!!!!!!! A lot better than expected, the chips were Amazing and the salsa was really good. The only thing I would say is maybe add or change a lil in the lobby. More booths maybe something. But it’s a amazing place!

Came to visit our son at Ft Riley. Came to Agave, food was good. My wife had Lindos special & I has Al Pastor tacos. Their extra hot sauce is pretty hot, must be habanero. Also had a Modelo beer. They have a bar available with liquor drinks. Atmosphere is nice & clean, food is reasonably priced.
