Came back to this spot with a friend. The service was even better this time. The $$ food was nicely presented, served fresh even more delicious than last time. They got their liquor license and the drinks were super tasty. Near Train and street and meter parking in the area. Recommend Agava& Maiz, will go again!

A delightful addition to the neighborhood. *They now have their liquor license too!!* I have come to eat here several times since they opened and tried a new dish each time. The food is delicious Tex-Méx and prepared with artistry. So far, the tacos (tacos birria!!), fajitas and flautas are top notch. The owners are kind and welcoming every time. The space is clean and modern, with good music playing at all times. There is a seating area separate from an elevated bar. I've seen several families, friends stop by. It's a good place for happy hour and friends. If you have to try one dish, order the Elote Asado. Delicioso.

The food is fresh and delicious. Service was very friendly and prompt. The guacamole is my husband's top 3 favorites of all time! The plates have authentic Mexican decor, and the interior is a unique blend of authentic vibes in a modern aesthetic. Hoping for a full bar soon! A delightful addition to this neighborhood

Octopus in steak nachos

I had a very scary experience. There was a cross contamination in my steak nachos with octopus, which I am allergic to. When I called to tell them my experience, they just kept passing off the phone and no one wanted to take accountability. Beware of the kitchen.

Piña or chata

Excelente atención y todo muy rico la piña orchata fue el final y los tacos birria lo recomiendo

The pasta was AMAZING. I actually would go back for that several times. The pasta was cooked correctly and the shrimp was nice and juice. I appreciate a location that does not skip on the shrimp. Overall I recommend here for a good and amazing prices lunch option!

My friend recommended we try this new place in the Manhattan Inwood area, NAPA in the Heights…read more We decided to check out this bar/restaurant today, and I am pleased to report it didn't disappoint. The vibe was cool, the service was excellent, and the $$$ food and drinks were delicious. This clean, modern, and cozy establishment provided not only an excellent dining experience but unbelievable entertainment, too. We inital went for dinner and drinks, but stayed when this wonderful artist and guitar player started to do their thing. Johnny Bliss sang & transported patrons to another place along with his talented string partner, Fabio. The singers voice is unbelievably beautiful. A true gift to the ears. He arrived around 8PM, and did a few sets until approx. 11pm. Apparently, these two artists are playing at NAPA on Fridays nights (not sure for how long). We had the meatballs, crabcake, and pork chop dinner (all yum). We had a few custom and signature drinks. Happy hour available until 7pm. Street parking out side. Conveniently located by MTA bus/trains. Totally recommend, will go again .

Lots of dancing! Very attentive servers. Our bottomless mimosas and sangrias were constantly refilled without asking. They offer hookah service too.

This place genuinely has the worst customer service I've ever experienced and seems more focused on…read moresqueezing money out of customers than providing a safe or respectful environment. I had already paid $40 just to enter the lounge, and yet the security guard at coat check aggressively insisted I take off my "coat" and pay another $20 just to wear it--or $10 to check it. The problem? It wasn't even a coat. It was a dress, and I told him that. I even explained that I could technically wear it as a dress and that I only had something skimpy underneath, but he still kept arguing. He kept pushing me to take it off and said, "There are plenty of other people dressed like that," completely ignoring the fact that I was uncomfortable. Being told to basically strip down or pay more money after already paying $40 to get in felt harassing, humiliating, and absolutely unacceptable. The whole situation felt like a scam and a blatant cash grab. If management allows staff to treat guests this way, it says everything about how poorly this place is run. I won't be coming back.
