Always great food and service at the Agave Grill & Bar. Daily specials add to the experience. Friday night music is fun to listen to. Also highly recommend the Sanctuary Bar with "Joe" the amazing bartender. read more

We stopped in for adult time, drinks only. Its a small little place in the lobby building. Behind the gift shop/store. Has some outdoor seating but it was too windy that night. We grabbed seats at the bar. We were the youngest folk in the place with an average age of 60. Alan was working the bar and some tables. He was nice. My husband's first drink, he questioned if there was alcohol in it. After that he went name brand liquor. I had a blue willow frozen drink. It was tasty and Alan topped me off with the extra. Overall it was a decent pkace to escape the kids for an hour but this wouldn't be a typical place we choose. read more

On Friday night there is a barbeque menu as a special. We all opted for something in it. The food was decent. 3 - 4 stars. Where they fell down was the service. We were seated outside. About 20 minutes later a waitress showed up and took drink orders. My old fashioned came about 20 minutes later. Our very wonderful waitress was simply spread too thin, as was the one bartender. Clearly, they were understaffed. read more

Back again at the Agave Bar and their menu options have expanded significantly. Plus, the food is excellent!! Well done Westin team. Bartender Kevin is fantastic. He makes excellent drinks and keeps the conversation 'real'.. When you visit, he works Tue-Sat, just FYI. And, they offer a Happy Hour everyday from 4pm-6pm... Pro-Tip: All of their pizzas as delicious, however, the Fiesta pie will have your taste buds singing hallelujah.. read more

This is the place to be. The food is perfectly prepared & tasty. They especially have fantastic pizzas on Thursdays & you can't go wrong with the skirt steak from the Friday menu.... Kudos to their chef team. Best part of the Agave Grill & Bar experience is the opportunity to interact with bartender Kevin... He mixes & pours top notch drinks, while adding to your fun with his engaging personality. Kevin has a no BS approach to having a great time at the bar. Don't miss their daily happy hour. Enjoy!!! read more

I'm so disappointed I'm a gay man that has gone there since they opened but today I walked in and sat down at the bar and the person next to me decided to move over for reasons I didn't know till the man looked at the bartender and did something and the bartender laughed and I felt so embarrassed in front of everyone that could see and I felt leaving but the girls next to me left so I moved over so I didn't make the person next to me uncomfortable and the bartender was to so interested in his phone talking sports and ignoring everyone else I'm so disappointed and this is where I can unwind because of my cancer that I'm dealing with but I was wrong and I let him know in his tip and I'm a heavy tipper but that's over. I'm very sad and disappointed with today I had really bad news from my doctor and now here at the only water hole I was loyal to but I don't think I will never walk in that place again I had humiliation beyond anything else I ever experienced. Don't be a gay person because it could happen to you. Very sad I thought they were my friends but I realized it is about the tip. And he received no tip from me today and that made me Feel terrible and I don't need to feel that after a challenging day I had at the doctors today. Sorry about my spelling I'm very upset beyond upset disappointed. My name is Michael and my cell is seven six zero eight six one seven zero zero eight. read more

Food was delicious, service was extraordinary and the ambiance was good, what's there not to like? Great experience overall. read more

Our second time here. First was very good experience. This time also very good. Food is very good. Reasonable portions at reasonable prices. (Calamari and sauce were bland.) We especially like the service. Very friendly and efficient. We like the outdoor setting over the pools and the lights after dark. Friday nights indoor live music. read more

Great food with helpful & friendly staff. Say "Hello" to Kevin and Stephanie, they will take care of all you drinks and food needs. Food came out pretty fast and everything was very tasty. read more

Agave Grill & Bar - Outdoor patio area - American Near Me - Palm Desert, California

Have eaten here several times but last couple times have been a little disappointed. Taco salad was very soggy with shredded chicken that was very dry and tough. Had a margarita that was so strong it tasted like pure alcohol. May not be back. Parking was good. Service was attentive. Food came our very quick. read more

decided we wanted to celebrate New Year's Eve close by, so we went to Agave Grill and Bar. For $65 a head you got an appetizer, entree, and dessert. I started with a fresh and tasty beet carpacio that had candied walnuts, goat cheese, micro greens, and cherry tomatoes on thin slices of beets. The dressing on this was delicious. My husband chose lobster bisque for his starter and loved it. The lobster was plentiful. We enjoyed the filet mignon and tiger shrimp entree with garlic mashed potatoes, colorful mixed carrots and squash, and a yummy sauce. Our server was Paloma and she is so friendly and helpful. She made the meal lovely. On her recommendation, we chose the tres leches cake for dessert. Wow! I've never seen tres leches prepared or presented as this was and it tasted as good as it looked. We didn't have the highest expectations coming into Agave, but everything was top notch. All of the food was plentiful, delicious, and beautifully plated. The chef and their team know what they are doing. Give this place a try! We will be back! The setting is quiet and there are plenty of options for seating both inside and out. read more

Good service, food was good. However the selections were limited. Drinks were really and a good selection.

The agave Grill was open for takeout only while we were spending the day near the pool , had a very good chicken nacho plate that was enough for 2 two people also had some mango rum refreshments take out plastic and begging gives it a 4 read more

Food is excellent for a casual hotel restaurant. Same kitchen also serves the poolside restaurant and bar. Tried multiple items on the menu including grilled chicken sandwich, tuna salad wrap and grilled chicken Caesar wrap. All outstanding! Service is great as well. Highly recommend. read more

We've had dinner here two nights in a row. Everything we've eaten has been incredibly good, and the service... the service is amazing! Each night we had a different food server and they each gave us the best service we've had in a very long time. The manager is so kind and clearly loves her job as she checks in on the tables to find out how their experience is going. Just wow! read more

We had dinner at Agave and the food was quite delicious my husband had the skirt steak and I had the short ribs, they were both delicious. We also had some cocktails which were good and a wedge salad, we really love wedge salads but didn't like the candied walnuts that they garnished it with. Ambience is what really detracted from the dinner. Otherwise the food was pretty good. Service was fast and efficient. read more

If you think that $20 for a Grey Goose martini is OK, then this place is fine. The atmosphere was OK, sparse sports bar.

This has been my favorite getaway every year! Accommodations are wonderful, amenities are outstanding, and MIGUEL has satisfied my thirst and hunger needs every time! Thank you for allowing me to share another year with you!!! read more

Tough review because it was probably better than most hotel bars / restaurants. But on its own it would not survive... The ambiance is hotel style. I know that sounds lame but if you travel you get it. Not bad, not nothing unique. The service st the bar was great. He was quick. Attentive. Friendly. Etc. no complaints on that end. My salad was just ok. At least they had fresh salad options and not just the usual bar food. It was good... bit nothing special. I would go back back if staying here, but I would not seek this spot out. Although o don't think that's the intention... read more

This place serves really good food for a restaurant attached to a hotel. Staying at the Westin without a car so this was the best option. The breakfast burrito was amazing. They probably served one of the best breakfast burritos I've had in a hotel. The potatoes that came along with the burrito was amazing as well. This was so good I ordered it two days in a row. But it is also incredibly big so I didn't finish both days. The servers were really great and attentive. I also ate here for lunch the first day I got here and ordered chicken wings and a soup, both were fantastic as well. If you are staying at the Westin definitely stop by and eat here. Sitting outside is also great since there's a great view of the pool/mountains. Definitely recommend! read more

What a find and so glad I did! Thank you Edwin for your Professionalism and punctual and friendly service. My braised ribs were over the top, delicious, the blue burger my friend had she loved and the mahi tacos are another good pick. Great job on the mashed potatoes and gravy! I'll be back for sure. read more

We were staying at the Westin Resort in Palm Desert. Agave Grill & Bar is the place to have breakfast at the resort. The coffee was good. The Muesli was well made. The smoked Salmon plate with Avocados, Tofu had generous portion of smoked Salmon. Service was fast, friendly and efficient. 4 stars because of the high prices. read more

Menu scaled down to few appetizers sandwiches etc . Same menu for poolside as For dinner ??? Reviews and menus online had positive reviews of ribs steaks etc. but they don't exist anymore. why the degraded menu? There's lots of people here who can afford real dinner in this upscale resort! it is self serve go get your own drinks and utensils. Bad for a Westin prime property. Wait staff are trying hard so it's not their fault. Edwin was very helpful and did his best. read more

The classic American style cuisine that you will find with indoor and outdoor seating. They have happy hour as well from 4-6 I believe. This restaurant is located at the Westin Desert Willow and its is charming and gives off a romantic vibe as well especially at night. There's a bar and great appetizers to choose from. Service is super friendly! read more

Love is defiantly in the air !!! No need to hear the whispers in the palm trees. This place simply "POPS" E and I had the pleasure of having Miquel mix us up a few happy hour goodies. Trust me I had to have my head turn sideways so I can see people straight. They treated us like royalty food drinks and delicious food. Can't say when a Random stop left such an impression on us. Love the place and very good service better than I could of expected. Cheers and kind regards.. Dr. G read more

This place was highly recommended to us by local hotel staff. Cool spot. The 2 hostess girls were really nice. They took us to a high top in the bar area. Then the young man who brought us our water and chips was very nice as well. However, we then waited for our server for ever. He would spend long amounts of time at a table with a couple women and other tables with people he knew. I never complain about restaurants and staff, because I strongly believe times are tough during our Covid times. But our server, just had a blatant disregard to us. I had to utilize everyone else there for things we needed. He would walk up to tables all around us and check on them and walk away from us. Drinks were good, appetizers were great and our burritos were awesome. But hey... J.F, let's try and provide equal service to everyone next time. read more

Very limited menu and only open for dinner. Atmosphere was depressing. Service was ok. Very nice resort with a terrible restaurant. Wishing I didn't waste a vacation meal here. Very overpriced junk food. Nachos were potato chips with liquid cheese, definitely don't order those. read more

Agave Grill is a great breakfast spot! All the food looks great, and tastes even better :-) Even though it's inside a resort, the prices are reasonable; the service is fast and friendly, and there's even some nice patio seating available. I saw a number of great looking choices on the menu - whatever you pick, I suggest you get a side of their potato wedges to go with it; they're perfectly fried and wonderfully crisp and tasty! read more

This was pretty bad. We ordered the charcuterie and they dared to serve BABYBEL cheese. That's a supermarket cheese snack, not something you put on a $20 plate. Also they put some, I don't know, I guess ginger with honey on it, but it leaked fluid all over the platter. Gross! The band that was playing, I was hoping to be able to pay them just to leave. Maybe that was their business model, I'm not sure. read more

Exceptional service. Courteous, informative, and prompt. Came in at 5, right between the 4-6 happy hour and couldn't have been more impressed. Joe, our host/bartender/bad ass was fantastic. He presented every special, thoroughly described food and drink options, and provided fantastic service. Even got great to go margaritas for our nightcap. Will definitely be back! read more

The hotel restaurant at Westin was the perfect combination of great food, relaxing ambiance, and casual dress. I ordered some of the best fish tacos that came with light batter, chipotle dressing and cabbage. As an appetizer you must order the tri-colored which comes with tortilla chips, guacamole, refried black beans, sour cream, and green hot sauce. The kids had a menu but the waitress gave a variety of kid friendly meals off the menu. That was a big bonus because my kids are picky eaters. Husband had the chicken Caesar salad and nothing was left on the plate. The best part is if you want you can take your meals down by the pool. read more

Agave is attached to the Westin Hotel. This place serves really good food for a restaurant attached to a hotel.Not something that happens often and was plesantly surprised. The servers were really great and attentive. Super friendly and happy people. Been here twice for dinner and the food and service was great. Both times I ordered the fish since it was that good. The prices are what you would expect at a Westin but worth the cost. Not overly expensive. You can sit indoors or outside since there's a great view of the pool and mountains. Definitely recommend you stop in here for dinner or a drink. You wont be disappointed. read more

We eat hear at least once when we stay at the Villas. The service is amazing. The reason for the 4 stars? Although the service is fantastic the food is not always consistent. If I could give Sylvia (our waitress) a 10 out of 5 I would. She is very friendly, hilarious and always remembered us when we get back. On our last trip she already knew what I wanted for our appetizer and my drink! Service cannot get better than that! read more

Good atmosphere...personable, attentive waiter. We arrived right about the time happy hour was ending but the waiter told us he would extend happy hour pricing for us. Kids had a pizza and chicken tenders with chips and they were very good (kids review). The wife and I split a grilled chicken sandwich with truffle fries....good flavor and cooked nicely. Nice pour on the drinks and they were fairly priced. We would definitely go back to Agave when we stay at the Westin again. read more
