Agave does Mexican food right! There is always quite a wait here, so go in and put your name on the list, walk around town, have a drink at the bar upstairs (on the back of the building upstairs), bring the kids to the playground at Canalfront park and wait for your call. When you do get seated, order the guacamole....it's some of the best you'll ever have!
