We were starved, saw this place advertised, and felt like Mexican, but it was very disappointing. If only we had thought to look at Trip Advisor's site first. Everything written about it was right. The only good marks I could give it were that the summer brew was a good unfiltered beer, they let us taste it first, and the... More

We ate dinner here on a Friday night because the place we had intended to go was too full (they quoted us an hour wait). Being low-season, the choice of places was limited, so we decided to take a chance on this place, even though (strangely) it was pretty empty. The portions were generous and the prices were o.k. The... More

We have visited the San Juan Islands many times but never spent a whole week on Orcas Island before this January 2013. Being the low season, your choice of restaurants is limited, but Agave was ready and waiting. We live in the heart of Texas so Mexican food is our favorite, so we just had to try it. I decided...

margharitas (sp?) were good but expensive ($14 ea), crab enchiladas were very good, but fish tacos were very disappointing. Bill came to $90 plus tip for 2 people. Ouch.

Great drinks and selection of tequila, very good food. I love the fish tacos, vegetarian options, great staff. This place is worth a visit, they sometimes have live music.

We sat in the bar by the warm fire on a rainy night and shared drinks, good conversation, and amazing crab enchiladas and chile rellenos! Warm and friendly service, delicious food at great prices!

I try Agave every few months, hoping for improvement,but it hasn't happened yet. Service is slow, portions are small, and you pay for the chips and salsa, which is unusual. they have tried to ke it more interesting with a quiz night and live music, but they need to attend to the basics-food quality, portion size, and service!

The interior is somewhat tacky, but in a cute and fun sort of way. The colors were bright and cheery, and the string lights were sort of festive. The restaurant advertised half price appetizers between the hours of 4:30 - 6:00 PM. When I asked about them, I was told that happy hour was in the bar, but they would... More

DO NOT eat here!!! This was some of the worst food I've ever had! The Mole sauce was greasy and tasteless. The rice was hard and stale and my steak was chewy and tasteless. And if that wasn't bad enough, we were never offered chips and salsa but then learned when we asked that they charge for them!!! Our meals... More
