From the service to the food Agave provided a first class experience. The food was amazing, traditional Mexican with flavors that melt in your mouth. We loved that it was so close to Beaver Creek too, we walked across the street from the Bear lot, were greeted immediately and settled at a wonderful table that fit our group of ski weary travelers. The warm tortillas, fresh chips and homemade salsa were on our table before we could pull our jackets off! Then came calamari that was to die for! There was something for everyone, fish, pork, chicken and beef, each dish masterfully prepared. We highly recommend stepping into the Agave experience, you will be glad you did! read more

The Casa Bonita of Avon, Co.. Well, without the divers, and sopapillas. Very over priced, and the quality of the food is ok. Nothing exciting. I honestly wouldn't give it another chance. read more

Interesting how you can go into the mountains of Colorado and find food this good. Fajitas were on point. Fresh, handmade flour tortillas. So good. The owner, Rich, is a kind human who cares about people. I will happily frequent this spot and give them my business and so should you! read more

We went early for lunch because we had a toddler with us. We sat on the empty patio because it was dark and hot inside. Nice to be outside but we both thought the patio was very dirty. Waitress very nice. Beef Taquitos very good. Cheese enchilada was cheesy but the sauce had no taste. Margarita was fine but we were surprised to read in Vail Daily the next day that it was voted Best Margarita. Won't be going back. read more

STAY AWAY. This place used to be great, fresh ingredients and happy people. Now the food is disgusting - the special "kale salad with summer squash and Mexican cactus" came out with iceberg lettuce only, a measely zucchini strand and they wanted to charge $18! Not a piece of kale or cactus in site. Also, the servers looked like they hadn't showered in weeks, with long greasy hair that is not pulled back. Was just hoping none of it fell in my food. Also, it took forever to get the bill so I walked to the bar where they were talking smack about another server (2 males talking about a female in derogatory language) - in front of a bar of customers! read more

Coming from Tucson, Arizona, I am very picky and highly judgmental of Mexican food. We were highly recommended to come here by some friends and my thought was that it probably wouldn't be that great, again, me being judgmental. Well, what a treat our meal was! The Prickly Pear Margaritas were superb, sweet and tart, and we drank them too quickly since they were so good. We also loved the salsa and the fresh tortillas that came with it. Our meals were also really delicious - good, bold flavorings, high quality ingredients and fortunately, food that was seasoned just right, not drowning in sauces. I am already counting down the days until we can go back. read more

Went here again because some friends in town visiting insisted. Got continuously pushed and run into by servers, while managing to be ignored. Also got roofied here. I've heard of about 4 or 5 other girls who have been roofied here as well. Ladies, watch your drinks. I have no clue why people still go here except that it's close to the Tarnes (employee housing) and they manage to book good bands. read more

We come here all the time and every time it has been amazing! Great service, amazing food, and a wonderful atmosphere! They have quite an extensive margarita list and several times I have been tentative to try a new one and my server has told me if I do not like it he will get me a new one. They really value customer satisfaction and it makes the whole experience amazing from start to finish read more

The service was seriously lacking. The food was very modern/trendy Mexican. Even as someone who appreciates that fare , it was really unimpressive. read more

Wow... great ambiance. Seems like a great place to watch live music and get tanked and eat cheap tacos. My wife is Gluten free and Vegetarian so we went there because they have a Gluten free menu but its all meat with no vegetarian options. That's messed up. So we asked the waitress if the cook could just make something he has on the gluten free menu but with no meat. and the waitress said " well the cook doesn't like special requests when he is busy". Whatever. After we asked her to just ask the cook the Manager came over after our inquiry and said "so there are some dietary issues here....so what do you need?" in a sarcastic way like we were a pain in the ass. I said " you mean to say.... what can we do for your dietary needs...right?" I can't believe they have never experienced that request. Oh well.....the customer is a pain. After working something out I ordered(non gluten and vegetarian) dinner of 2 enchiladas and a taco. Our food came out and I have to tell you....I should have ordered off the gluten free menu cause what I got was not only cold but the sauce on the enchiladas was terrible. It tasted like flour and water thrown on top of two corn tortillas( that were not even hot oiled like real Mexicans do) with cold chicken inside. Flavor...forget that. The taco (beef) was also cold inside. Like I said (from experience with 20 years in the Mexican food restaurant industry in Arizona) this is not good Mexican food in a town were every other restaurant is Mexican. " I don't eat Mexican food very often, but when I do, I won't be getting it in Avon, Colorado at Agave." BTW if your in Breckenridge this place ROCKS!!!!! Mi Casa Mexican Restaurant. read more

The management was terrable the wait staff was great the food was good drinks good . I will never go back

The service was aweful. We approached the bar and the bartender was rude. He walked away and didn't answer simple questions. We asked about the tequila with rattle snake and he ignored our inquiry. PITIFUL. This was disconcerting because everywhere else we ate in Vail and BC, other places seemed to really value our business. This place doesn't! Our server was inexperienced and lacked minimal server qualities. We asked for specials and he didn't know what the special were. The food was terrible, cold and wrong orders. I had the fajitas and the steak for the fajitas was like chewing rubber. The rice, guac and tortillas are better at Taco Bell. We left very disappointed. read more

Gave Agave another chance for the millionth time and I can safely say ill never return again. Overly drunk staff. Pricey food and drink. You could get better Mexican at Taco Bell. Go to Montana's there free tacos blow all the food off the menu at agave. Agave can turn there business around by firing all the staff hiring some real cooks, and starting over. Everyone in town calls agave junk fest. I wonder why? read more

Awesome food, good lunch specials, drink specials, and the bands that the play are great. Staff are friendly, environment is comfortable and upstairs is much more private and quiet for dinner service which is good! read more

They have a Gluten Free Menu, but still poisoned my wife so that leads me to believe that they do not understand the concept of celiac disease. As long as you do not have to eat GF, then the atmosphere is very cool. The chips & salsa are tasty. The house Margarita is a good size and tasty. We had the enchiladas Veracruz. They were super tasty. The guacamole is a must with a great hint of lime. The black beans were good also. We had the sopaillas were very tasty and was told all of this was GF by the manager. It was not stay away if you need to eat gluten free. read more

Agave has so many great choices for delicious mexican food in Avon. The squash salad is amazing as well as the margaritas. Chris the bartender is always very tentative to your needs and makes an amazing marg. Always my go to place when visiting Avon read more

This was a very average meal. Nothing to write home about. I ordered the soft chicken tacos, and they were extremely wet and soggy. There was a pool of water on my plate after finishing the first one. The empanadas were average, but the rest of my group's meals were overly salty. Service was good. Atmosphere was strange- really appeared to be more of a nightclub than a restaurant. read more

Friday night dinner reservation for 7 (4 adults 3 young kids) at 6:15pm. Seated upstairs next to lounge area. Delicious/large margaritas served in colorful glasses. Entrees were excellent, especially enchiladas suizas! Kids menu available (m&c, tacos, quesadillas). Great service overall. Casual dress. Would recommend to others visiting the Avon area. Short drive from Comfort Inn (Avon location) and the Ritz Carlton in Bachelor Gulch. read more

I thought this place was less than average for Mexican food. It started off great with good salsa and warm tortillas. Our nachos were really good too. However, our actual meal was bland and soggy. No flavor in the enchiladas. Disappointing. I would not go back. read more

Love Agave so so much for Taco Tuesday $1.50 best tacos in town! However, this place could use work with their staff. After waiting 45 minutes when we were quoted 30, we walked outside to escape the packed waiting room for 3 minutes to find that the hostess crossed our name off the waitlist. Once we finally got seated our server and other staff members general we're very rude and acted like they would rather be anywhere else. Our server messed up our order and we ended up just paying for the extra taco that we didn't order. Overall good food but not happy with our service. read more

The food here is pretty gross. I've been twice and found the experience super disappointing and I left hungry. The only redeeming quality is that they host some really great music every now and then. read more

Well so far so good. Great margarita. Mexican traditionale, up. Great menu selection. Salsa is good with just the right amount of kick. I had the scallops dinner entree. It was very good. I enjoyed the place. Margarita was one of the best (signature served up). Little more of a neighborhood feel vs. touristy feel. Good stuff. read more

Never actually ate here. Both times I was in Avon the staff arrogantly told us why they wouldn't serve us. Told us it's just 5 minutes to go some where else. Don't count on this place after 8:30p. read more

We went on a Friday night, and the place was about half full. There were four of us, who all ordered something different, and we all liked the food! We also tried two different desserts, which were also really good. Only thing that stopped this place from being a 5 star was the staff. Our waitress had little patience, and would walk away if we did not order fast enough. Also ordered a second drink which never came. read more

Would've given them a three but the guy at the front door is a total JERK - the worst I've ever been treated by any staff member of any restaurant. Food is good and the service is okay excluding the JERK. read more

Don't EVER eat here. Was probably the worst restaurant experience we've ever had. There were little black flecks in all the drinks that came from the soda gun, so it was dirty. we sent my son's drink back 3 times~he ordered a soda and got club soda (with black flecks ) twice before he got what he ordered~even then it was dirty so he didn't drink it. The server was rude ( she corrected a pronunciation of an order in a haughty manner). And 2 people in our group got sick after we are there. Don't eat at Agave. If I could give negative stars I would but this website doesn't allow that. read more

Disgusting. I had the worst meal of my life at Agave. The service was terrible. Every staff person we met, including someone who was presumably the owner/manager, was rude. But if I worked there, I probably couldn't smile either... I went to see some music there, which was wonderful. If I hadn't have been waiting to see this band, there are many times throughout the night when I would have walked out. read more

Went for taco Tuesday. Sat at the bar, bar tender was a dick and was not helpful. Made fun of my order, and completely ignored my request to change the tv from the news to baseball. Tacos , both beef and chicken came out dripping with oil and disgusting. Place was terrible, with the employees to reflect it. read more

Buck Fitty Taco Tuesday is the place to be. Don't let the cheep taco fool you. Good stuff! And they have tequila too.

The server got our plates wrong but didn't want to deal with hassle so just ate what was served. Food is good (not stupendous). Much appreciated after a long hike. read more

Walked here from The Tarnes. The restaurant is crazy beautiful aesthetically - especially the stage area. All the tables are candle-lit where we sat and large glass bottles of water & chips are provided at the beginning of each meal. Salsa was really watery, but the queso I could've eaten for every meal for the rest of my life LOL. Get it, it's delicious. I got a large top shelf margarita for $10.50 and it was incredibly strong. Really good though, ordered with a salt rim!! I will never complain about extra alcohol. I went on taco Tuesday so I got three tacos and a side of the Mexican rice which were simple but great. My fiancé got mahi tacos and he absolutely loved them. They came with rice, beans, and Mexican coleslaw (which was mostly mayo-cabbage lol). Our waiter was "ok" - he looked kind of confused and distracted the whole time. Kept running off before we could finish ordering or asking for anything. All in all we will be back, but hopefully a few things will be better and it was just an off night. read more

Amazing Mahi Mahi fish tacos! We also got a seafood appetizer that had a delicious creamy sauce. Ambiance is very trendy, modern and hip. Our server was from Ohio was very friendly. Live music most nights! read more

Great margaritas and friendly staff. The food is pretty good but nothing too amazing. Cool atmosphere with nice staff.

I am writing this review purely based on my visit during taco Tuesday. The tacos were so delicious for $1.50. They do Tuesday taco for chicken and shredded beef hard shell tacos. They home make their tortillas. We had Mexican Mules which is tequila, ginger beer and like and they were fantastic. I have read a lot of reviews about rude bartenders but my experience was totally the opposite. I saw one girl run the whole bar. She was direct and attentive and quick. The second my drink was empty and my tacos were gone she was right over asking if I needed anything else. The other food I did she come out looked just as great. They have live bands on Tuesday nights and Friday and Saturday too. So happy we visited on our trip to Vail. read more

Agave - Mexican Mule! Delicious. - Mexican Near Me - Avon, Colorado

See all

This is one of my favorite plaes to eat in the valley. THE best mexican food by far. They have great combinations that have added new flavors to my pallette. This is also a great venue to enjoy a small, intimate show. Amazing margs. read more

I recently went to Vail, CO on a skiing trip with my friend. We ended up going to Agave 3 times during the 6 nights we were there. First off, the food is fantastic. The tortillas are amazing. I've tried the coconut shrimp, paella, and ceviche salad - all super tasty. The drinks were also yummy, especially the prickly pair margarita. If you're feeling daring, try a shot of their infamous rattlesnake tequilla! Finally, the restaurant frequently has bands play. We saw a fun band Saturday night, and another one the following Tuesday. Overall, we had a very good time and I highly recommend this place! read more

Food was good, beer was refreshing, bartender ignored everyone except for the locals he knew, and was quite rude.

Awesome coconut marg! Delicious taco Tuesday with deep fried chicken or beef in corn tortillas. Check it out! Get there early though otherwise you'll wait quite a while. Decent prices, too. read more

Best place for Mexican food in the valley! Service was great and our bartenders were awesome!! So glad we ate here! The female and male bartender seemed to really get along and worked well together! They were funny! So glad we came here! Will def come back!! read more

Great impromptu stop at Agave today. Good food and drinks surrounded by good scenery.
