    Agave was good, Chicken Burrito was excellent, Goat Cheese and pine nut guacamole is very very good, steak street taco was tough and fatty, traditional Margaritas are always really good

    The margaritas are great. The food is fine but overall, you can get better food elsewhere for more reasonable prices. I’d recommend for the drinks but not the rest.

    Agave in Lewes, a good, not great place to eat dinner. It's very loud in the restaurant making conversation difficult. The drinks were so-so. My quesadilla was a bit over done, chicken was dry. Server was just OK.

    5 stars We had a great experience at Agave Mexican Restaurant in Lewes, DE! I ordered the fish tacos which were fresh and flavorful!! The real standout for me, though, was the honeydew mojito… seriously, really really really good. I’d go back just for that. We also shared chips and queso to start, the chips were warm and super fresh, and the queso was deliciously creamy with just the right kick. My friend got the chicken quesadilla and loved it! To top it all off, we shared the banana tres leches for dessert, and they even brought it out with a candle for her birthday, such a sweet touch. Definitely recommend for good food, good drinks, and good vibes!

    We were told we had an hour and 45 mins to sit and eat. I had a party of 5 and policy says party of 5+ is 2hrs sit down. I felt like we were rushed. The food was AMAZING… but I probably wouldn’t return back to the Lewes Agave. Maybe the Rehoboth one I won’t feel as rushed.

    Overall - the food was average not memorable but the cost was memorable.:: $55.00 for shrimp fajitas. Confident no Mexican restaurant at any level in the US including that famous one in Newport Beach is anywhere near that.:: service was fine but generally it was the drink and food pricing that caused our disappointment and the food quality, depth of flavors (lacking) with one exception… guacamole with pine nuts was a really nice nuance. I get 2nd street Lewes DE is nice but I can get the best steak on the street for that $$. Grabbed the guacamole idea and that’ll my memory of agave..:
