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.

I went there on Saturday night with a group of friends, we didn't have a reservation so we had to wait about 20 min. cause the place was PACKED!!! It was worth the wait cause we had a great time. We were seated in the main dining room in a really cool round table right next to a fireplace. We ordered some drinks that the waiter suggested and they were delicious... without a doubt the best margarita i had in town so far. The food was really god too, i personally had the Fajitas that the waiter suggested and i am glad i took his advice! The atmosphere is so much fun like the people that work there and the service was fast and attentive even though there was not one single free table available in the whole place. I live in the neighborhood and i will definitely make of this may regular hangout.

Great food, I can't wait to go back. The service wasn't bad either. Any delays were worth it for the dinner.
