Pork Chimi
Marie P.

Food: I must have ordered the wrong things. I see reviews calling this authentic, and fantastic. I'm going to disagree on that. Being a Mexican from the Southwest...hard no. I had the Pork Verde Chimichanga (I'm aware that chimi is not authentic) and the pork filling was so bland. So bland. The rice was flavorless, and the beans lacked salt. My husband had a chili Arellano, which he enjoyed, but he felt that the enchilada lacked flavor. We felt the chips & salsa were generous, and thank goodness because we slathered our food in that salsa. I knew better than to order the margarita...I had something called the diva. It was weak, and not cheap. Ambiance: The bar was very large & the restaurant had lots of tables. The Music was on a loop & we both commented that we felt like we heard about 4 songs over & over. It just felt lazy when there is so much tech available to put in a decent sound track. Customer service: Very good. The staff was friendly & efficient. I felt like this place might get pretty lively on a Friday night & the layout has so much potential.

Wow. This is authentic Mexican food. I decided to visit Agave Cantina and Grill Mexican Restaurant in Kalispell just to taste the food. I am giving this restaurant a 5 star and if it was possible to give this place a 10 star I WILL BECAUSE IT DESERVES IT the reason is because the food was so good, the service was super and the ambience was nice. This restaurant is very cute and Mexico style. I'm so glad I decided to come here and try it OUT. I'm so grateful I came here . I'm giving an 100% to all of the cooks they deserve 90 % of the credit. I'm Mexican and I have travel to many places and try many different kind of food and trust me that this food is one of the best. . I recommend this place to everyone for sure and Vanessa our servant was so kind to us. I totally recommend Agave Restaurant to everyone even if you not Mexican I don't just give 6 stars to anyone

3 item dinner plate- 3 chili rellenos with rice and beans. Couldn't even finish. It was fantastic.

Excellent. Excellent food choices, excellent service. Excellent prices. I was pleased surprised during my first visit here. The quality, the taste was all there. I was taken aback by the portions. We could barely finish our appetizer. This is my new place. Everything was authentic. I just say enough good things about Agave. A+ for everything.

A unique drink including tequila in a clay bowl.

We come here frequently! The atmosphere is pretty good and the food is great. They can be very busy and staff can be stretched a little bit. But with a little patience we have never been disappointed.

The food is great. The service was excellent. The ambience is good. The beans are amazing. They're salsa. Excellent for being a new restaurant. It was great.

This is a nice welcoming restaurant. They have dining on the main floor and also on the 2nd floor…read more It's cozy , not a large restaurant. I ordered the chicken tacos which were very good. We also ordered chips, salsa and guacamole. My daughter ordered the shrimp tacos which she loved. My grandson ordered the steak tacos and a quesadilla.

The staff was nice and they were only seating the bar half of the restaurant. The menu is quite small with a huge tequila selection and some other cocktails. The pricing is pretty high and the food is definitely southwestern not true Mexican, which you can tell from the photos. We had the chips and salsa. The chips were definitely homemade and thick. The chips were delicious alone but I came with a green and red sauce. The green sauce was good, the red was okay and both were mild. For dinner I had the carne asada tacos and my dad had the pollo tacos. Each taco plate comes with 4 and you cannot mix and match. The carne asada was delicious. You could tell the meat was high quality and seasoned well. The tortillas were corn, but thick and delicious. I do not usually like corn but these were phenomenal. The pollo was okay, I wasn't a huge fan of the seasoning on the chicken but I do like that the portion of the meat was substantial. To drink I got their pineapple drink with vodka instead of tequila. It was good but small and almost $20

They didn't offer my dog any water, but that was fine since I had my own bowl for him. You're looking to spend minimum $15 an entree. Pretty expensive for mediocre food. I ordered the prawns and steak, but the prawns were medium sized. The steak was overcooked but still edible. The tortillas taste like grocery store quality and not homemade. My boyfriend ordered the shrimp and crab chimichanga. They stuffed the chimichanga with mini baby shrimp and maybe a couple of shreds of crab meat. The server was nice, but he made several mistakes. While putting down our plates, he almost knocked over my cup of ice onto my dog, he spilled salsa onto my boyfriend's foot, and we found a strand of hair tangled in the food and he told us that the cook is bald. I'm grateful they were open when I was super hungry and they are dog friendly, but the service and food sucks.

Another underrated place in Kalispell!…read more I checked the reviews before I came her to make sure the place is good. I was surprised by the nonsense bad reviews about the service and food. I ordered Carne Asada plate, and it came with ships, salad and tortillas. It was very yummy and huge for the price you pay. I enjoyed every single bite of my meal. The service was okay, and the kid who was serving was cool. I would definitely come back here.

I was surprised to find their pricing was so reasonable and from such an accomplished Chef and team. They have been so easy to work wit hand so much fun to plan with for our wedding. THEN, my rehearsal dinner location that has been putting me off for months about getting reservation details beyond "sure we can do that" comes back with "That will be $4k room reservation since its on one of our busy days, looking forward to working with you" 3 weeks before the wedding. In a panic I reached out to see if there was any way S&M would be willing to squeeze in some additional catering for me that weekend and all I heard was "don't worry! we got you!" at a fraction of the price of my previous intended location, on short notice and with a smile. Chef Star and her team have already gone above and beyond and we haven't even gotten to the good stuff yet. We are so looking forward to actually getting to taste the food (Which I've heard is incredible), but even if it was just mediocre, they will still get a 5 star review. I'll be back with pictures after the event, but just know, you're getting more than a caterer if you hire Chef Ironside, you're getting a partner in your event. someone who is as invested in its success as you are. Don't hesitate.

Not a family friendly place. Food was not great. Service was mediocre. Highly recommend trying some…read moreof the other restaurants in the area.

This place was packed on a Friday night. The man handling drinks and host duties was on it. We had…read morea bit of a wait to get seated at the bar, but understandable on a packed night. Husband and I split the 3 meat plate (although we were tempted by the special-beef ribs on mashed potatoes). We had brisket (good and my favorite), pork ribs (fall off the bone good and tasty), pork belly (hubby said it was good since it isn't my thing). For our sides we had collard greens (we fought over those they were so good), bacon Mac (creamy and smokey), and corn bread (so glad we each had our own serving of that or there would have been bloodshed). That cornbread was the best I have had at a restaurant in ages. Staff were on it. They were personable and friendly. Kitchen staff--wow. It was awesome to watch the magic and teamwork happening in the very small wizard's workshop. Thank you for the great night and the leftovers.

So, I really don't know why people come here. Maybe we got unlucky but let's run it from the start…read more Upon entering, the place does look very cool. It almost feels like you're in a mineshaft or an antique store, which I thought was awesome. We are immediately greeted with a very friendly smile and told there were seats at the bar (the restaurant was packed, another good sign). A few minutes go by and we're still standing at the check-in, and another couple comes in. They are greeted in the same way, offered seats at the bar, and are thusly ushered to their seats... while we were still standing there. Okay, few more minutes go by and we call out the table that was just cleaned, and we get seated. The menu looks phenomenal, and we ended up getting the meat combo to try everything. This is where it gets even worse. The barbecue itself took a while to get to our table, which would be fine if it wasn't cold. Yes, you heard correctly, the barbecue was all cold. Baked beans had to have been Bush's. Potato salad and Mac was good, same with the cornbread. But the main things we paid $60 for were cold. The ribs were beyond burnt, and the brisket was tough. Oh, and the single sausage we got was slathered in mustard and barbecue sauce, come to think of it everything on the plate was slathered in barbecue sauce. Usually not a good sign lol. I really wish I could say nicer things about this place but I unfortunately cannot recommend it to anyone. But hey, they're packed so maybe that's just the quality of the food around Kalispell. Food: 1/5 Service: 3/5 Ambiance: 3/5 Value: 2/5 Overall: 2/5
