    Came here to try the food before they close permanently on Jan.31st. I was able to grab a seat at the bar after waiting about 20mins. I ordered the scallops with collards and grits. Everything was delicious. Sad to see them go.

    Agave was a lovely surprise. My friends and I popped in on a Friday night, 30 min before they closed. I was nervous that the food wouldn't be good or they would rush us but my experience was the complete opposite. The staff were so friendly and accommodating. I ordered the crawfish pasta and OMG it was so good! I also gave the bartender full creative control on crafting a mocktail and she did not disappoint. I will definitely go back to check out additional menu items.

    This is the last time we'll be able to enjoy Agave but everything was wonderful! The swordfish special with mashed potato and broccolini. The garlic spinach was so tasty. Shrimp egg rolls, street corn and cesar salad! Everything was so tasty! I had a very well mixed old fashion. I hope the owners will find a way to open a new place/concept and continue the wonderful service, atmosphere and food that we've grown to love!!!

    I love the spot. I am so disappointed it's going to close soon so I went back and visited it. This time I tried the mussels and the tuna tartar and both are excellent dishes. Do check it out before they close for Good.

    I've been to this restaurant a couple of years ago it's been a minute. I live in the area not to far from here now maybe like 15 minutes so I had to go back here and try something I didn't have before from here. First time I visited I got the Cayenne chicken with the mashed potatoes. It's vallet parking here and the food is delicious and it's a bar for those who want to drink. I got the shrimp rolls and a fried lobster tail and street corn and I received the complentary chips with salsa. I also got the chef's strawberry cheesecake and I tried the chocolate mousse for dessert. I ate some food for dinner and I saved the rest for breakfast on 1-2-2026. Pull up and check them out. Sadly they are closing on 1-31-2026.

    I've been coming here for 25 years on and off and recently started back. The restaurant was slammed and Justin did a great job putting up with us! Everything was 10/10. Solid authentic restaurant with amazing margaritas. Sad to see them go!

    The restaurant was great. The ambiance was fun and romantic. The food was good. I had the chicken soup and the gulf shrimp. The service was top notch. I came in with some friends. It was the restaurant 25th anniversary.

    It's been once three years since I've been in Georgia. I have always wanted to try this place. Never thought I could afford it. Today I had dinner with one of my friends from my neighborhood and it was a lovely experience. Let's start with complementary valet and a warm welcome when I walked in. There are three cool rooms in this establishment one with the Bar and two other ones to Jason for dining. We were in the flat room which was nice and cozy. The atmosphere was lively and everyone seems to be out. All the plates came out quick and the food looks amazing. I ordered the Caesar salad that I've been craving and haven't found a good one yet for now and the quesadilla. The Dino sitting suggested the blunt orange margarita Which sounded delicious, but it lacked luster. Very watery and barely taste it like a margarita. I should've stuck with my traditional margarita or just a couple shots tequila instead. All the food was yummy ! Our servers name I can't remember maybe her name is Brianna ? She was amazing. Food came out fast. The quesadillas for room temperature, but yet delicious. The homemade hot sauce was Tasty not very hot at all. An overall great experience !! Next time I will definitely try that fried chicken. It looks amazing. I just wasn't hungry enough!

    Agave Restaurant is located in Cabbage Town at 242 Blvd SE Atlanta, GA 30312 This is a family owner established. On 7/6/2024 Health Score is 89 = B Our servers were Anderson and Helena they both were very, very, very welcoming, friendly, and accommodating. We ordered the Watermelon Margarita, the Enchiladas and the Rio Grande Burrito. The food was seasoned well and so delicious. The presentation was also very nice. The restaurant ambiance was a little dark for me. But the overall vibe offered music piping through the speakers and a cozy feeling. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to my family and friends. It's was the Rio Grande Burrito for me.

    Enchiladas
    Nicole P.

    The hidden gem of cabbagetown! I really should make a weekly reservation at this point. The food is so ridiculously good. Chips and salsa come but don't fill up... save room for dinner. The enchiladas are the same price as a burrito at any local chain... so it's a no brainer for us! And service is always so friendly. And personal. You leave feeling like family. The outside front is great for a cocktail (car and people watching). i wish they'd have dinner service on those patio tables!!! Oh and the spicy pb pie isn't overly spicy and a great dessert selection!

    Dessert Sampler

    Dinner with friends for a birthday and it's a Saturday night. Luckily we have a reservation and we are sat right away! Chips and salsa to start and I enjoyed my Peachtree Margarita! There were 9 of us and our server, James, took care of us well! Ask for him! Almost all of us got the Medallions - but all a little different! It was quite tasty and those onion rings - those alone should be a side or an app, YUM! We also got the dessert sampler (we were celebrating a birthday after all)! And it was so good! I would take the strawberry compote from the cheesecake and put it on the peanut butter pie - DEEEEELICIOUS! Highly recommend!

    Agave has been one of myfavorite spots for a while. They fell off for a bit; I had two not-so-great experiences there, but after some time, I tried them again. I was quite excited and hopeful for a great experience.  The service was good, and the vibe of the place is always cozy and warm. The chips and salsa were good. I ordered the chicken dish with macaroni and cheese and collard greens. I also had the fried lobster tail as an appetizer. I also tried the street corn, not the cob. The fried lobster tail was amazing. It was seasoned so well and fried perfectly. The collard greens and macaroni and cheese were pretty good too. The chicken was fried well, but it did lack flavor. All that flavor that was packed into the lobster tail just for the chicken to lack at least half as much flavor That was really the only disappointment; I wish the chicken carried more flavor, but it was fried well and a nice size.

    Ask the Community - Agave Restaurant

    Hi! Is takeout available this weekend?

    Sorry, no. We have decided to solely focus on the sold out restaurant as our small kitchen can’t handle both in the final two days.

    I forgot to book a reservation? Do we HAVE to have one for a party of 4? Hoping to get in once more before they close.

    Yes Ma’am. Agave is sold out until the first week of January. Thanks so much!

    Can I tap to pay?

    Yes, at the terminal with a server. Thanks so much!

    What's the dress code like?

    Casual

    Is outside seating available?

    No. There's "patio" dining, but it's still indoors with open air ceilings around its walls borders. This area is very cool, because of the open air wall borders, and above head ceiling fans. It's really nice. It feels like an adobe.

    Can they accommodate a party of 20?

    This isn't a very roomy restaurant. Most of the seating spaces are rather close/tight. If I took a guess, I would say probably not comfortably.

    Is there a Happy Hour here?

    Yes, at the bar - which had limited seating.

    I'm taking my girlfriend for her birthday is it better to sit outside or upstairs?

    Depends on if it's you and her , if it is upstairs will be kool but I also like the patio as well.

We were there celebrating our engagement, and they made it feel so special by decorating our table with rings and confetti to celebrate our love. Our server gave us so much attention and made the experience feel personal. Since it was our first time there, they took the time to walk us through some of the best items on and off the menu, and shared their favorite dishes. Everything was done with care. The restaurant was clean, the bathroom was amazing, and the food was worth every dollar. The short rib was so tender, and the New York strip was seasoned to perfection and cooked medium well just how we like it. The twice-baked potato loaded with bacon, sour cream, chives, and cheese was delicious, and the mac and cheese was so good. I also appreciated that they allowed me to order it without the roasted saltine crackers. I can't wait to visit again!

Bones has old money vibes - for example, the receptionist referred to us as Mr. and Ms. which I felt like was very polite and again, traditional. We were celebrating my birthday, and they pre-decorated our table a little bit! We got special print-out menus that said "Happy Birthday" and the table had a little bit of confetti on it! It was a nice gesture to be welcomed with. Our server, Michael, was great at being attentive (without being overly attentive), and providing recs/answering our questions. We went with the Crab and Lobster Napoleon for our app, the Ribeye to split, and a side of their famous Hash Browns. Everything was very good!! I will let the pictures speak for themselves, but all the food comes out hot, fresh, and with good flavor. I really do recommend getting the Hash Browns - it sounds a little silly to order such a dish at a steakhouse, but try it for yourself :) All dishes have a good portion size so keep that in mind when ordering! While not pictured, I do have to give a shoutout to the complimentary bread service - their bread is real good. Hot and fluffy on the inside, crispy on the outside. Try not to get full off the bread alone. For dessert, Bones surprised us with literally the tallest and thickest slice of ice cream cake I've ever seen! My jaw dropped. I love ice cream cake and it was awesome to be treated to some!! I already thought that the table decorations and the special menu were enough to recognize my birthday, but this is the generosity of Bones. I will absolutely be returning some day! If not for the amazing food, then for the equally amazing hospitality! Thank you Bones for a wonderful birthday! Note: Complimentary valet parking ONLY. We asked the valet person if we could just park the car but we weren't allowed to. Bring some cash for a tip.

Definitely a place to be seen and eat well. There's a parking garage but it was full when we got there, so we did valet, which was surprisingly affordable. Service was wonderful. Our server was attentive, helpful, and super knowledgeable about the menu. As for the food, we got: Aguachile de Pescado, which was insane. Super fresh, bright, citrusy, ceviche-like with perfect texture. I would go back just for that. The Hamachi was clean and bright. That avocado sauce tied everything together and gave it some depth without overpowering the fish. The Pork Belly Tostadas were crispy and rich with that smooth avocado mousse and sweet mango salsa balancing it out perfectly. Finally, the bone marrow with steak... so good. I had seen pictures of it before I came and it did not disappoint. The steak was incredibly tender. They bring blue corn tortillas and suggest making a taco with the marrow, steak, and avocado. It's great that way. But honestly, the marrow and steak stand perfectly on their own. Whole experience was excellent. Easily one of my favorite spots in the city now.

Right when we walked in, the staff complained to us that we hadn't called ahead to have a "smaller, special menu" crafted for a large party. To make matters worse, they loudly announced to the whole table right off rip that they wouldn't split checks separately--only an even split. It felt incredibly rude, lazy, and unwelcoming. The irony is that the large group size wasn't even an issue; we staggered our arrivals and the patio was completely empty. The kicker- my brother in law ended up paying the whole tab at the end anyways! so all of that initial laziness & nastiness for NOTHING! Throughout the night, the service felt incredibly rushed and stressed. While we were still eating our appetizers, the busser was aggressively trying to clear our plates because the mains were coming. Our server was very short with us the entire time, which was confusing because the restaurant didn't even have a stressful vibe. She recommended a main dish to me that I really didn't care for, though I will say the salsa was unique and probably the best part of the meal. Shoutout to the one staff member who was actually friendly, but overall, this is not the kind of place where you leave feeling like you had a nice restaurant experience- at least I personally didn't.. Too bad we didn't just go to C&S next door which we always love. Regardless tho, my sister had a blast, but that's entirely because she has a wonderful crew of great friends, not because of Casi Cielo.

Combined with the exceptional service and beautiful ambiance, the experience left a lasting impression and made me want to return for another try. That opportunity came this past Sunday. I originally planned to stop in for a drink and the bread service, but my boyfriend and I ended up ordering the Caesar salad and the Lobster Risotto as well. The bread service was just as amazing as I remembered. My boyfriend thoroughly enjoyed the Caesar salad, especially the freshly grated cheese, which he said was incredibly light and airy. As for the Lobster Risotto, it exceeded my expectations in both flavor and portion size. The risotto itself was somewhat mild on its own, but once I mixed in the herb butter, it became absolutely delicious. The lobster itself was very tender and tasty, I loved it. I've officially fallen in love with Marcel and will definitely be adding it to my list of go-to dinner spots. The bread service, ambiance, interior design, and customer service are all outstanding. I truly appreciate supporting businesses that consistently deliver such a high-quality experience.

A moody, retro, classic world where…read morebowties are worn unironically in a setting that could best be described as a boxing gym renovated with industrial touches to become a steakhouse in the 1940s. That world could be anywhere. It could even be in Midtown West Atlanta. Service was impeccable. Servers knew we were celebrating our anniversary and were attentive and helpful when making tough menu choices. Pacing was definitely geared toward fine dining. 40 minutes between starters and entree was a BIT long, but it went by. Steak was wonderful (a porterhouse for 2), cooked to a perfect medium rare with seasoning appropriately calibrated to not overpower. East and west coast oysters were fresh and the Marcel salad to start was underdressed and lacked flavor (I enjoyed how they plopped a mound of bleu cheese on top to mix in; I pushed this aside which my server and I laughed about. He said he'd do the same. Maybe it's a sign). Hot bread service with a spreadable cheese and prosciutto was a nice touch. The French fries are probably the best I've ever had, and the asparagus was asparagus (slightly undersalted if anything). Chocolate cake was impressive in presentation but unremarkable for flavor and consistency. My wife enjoyed her decaf coffee as the best she's had at a restaurant, but her cocktail left something to be desired and was extremely tart. A Mexican coke was perfect enough for me. The pricing here is exorbitant. The price tag isn't necessarily a problem given the caliber of dining experience and ambiance that Marcel provides, but given some of the misses on staple items (namesake salad, "famous" chocolate cake), I'm not sure that value for dollar spent is present. In transparency, our dinner comprised of the above was over $400 with tip, which was aligned with expectations walking in the door. Whether the food stood up to the actual place and pricing is a debate. I lean toward an answer of "almost, but close enough not to be insulted." If a gun was pointed at my head to pick the "best steakhouse" in Atlanta, I'd pick Bones without thinking twice. This place is a close second probably, but places like Nowaks in Sandy Springs, while not the same echelon of formality, might have Marcel beat on flavor and definitely have Marcel beat on value for the dollar. Is Marcel's concept valid and well executed? Yes, without question. Would I want somebody else to pay if I returned? Yes, without question. 4.3/5 stars

I think the logistics of getting fresh seafood makes it more expensive in Atlanta for certain selections? I'll give them the benefit of the doubt on that one. Also would have appreciated an oyster being taken off the bill when I informed the server it was a bad one. All in all ok, knowing that's a known risk with eating them.

Our server , was quite nice , asked us what were celebrating and very welcoming. He gave us the daily specials and made recommendations. Think his name was Daryl. Great seating and a lil darker inside. We enjoyed our dinner and appetizers and the fellowship was superb. Definitely recommend. It's been a minute since I had dined here and will consider in the future.

Inside the bar is straight ahead to your right. The kitchen is open and visible from the seating area, giving a sense of transparency and feeling of home. Elegant tables arranged with plenty of space to move about lets you know they're more interested in your comfort than maximizing how many bodies they can cram into one big room. Excellent servers are watchful without being disruptive. I like to enjoy my meal without being pestered every few minutes. I ordered the Bone-in Ribeye (my go-to for any steakhouse) and was *NOT* disappointed Perfect temperature. Flawless execution. I could tell they allowed equal time to cook and rest before delivering it to me. Prices are reasonable for the culinary experience and the quality meal you receive. Thank me later. Go and enjoy a special night out tonight!

    I can't count the number of times I've driven past this place. Honestly, if I hadn't been invited…read morehere for a birthday dinner, I probably never would've tried it -- and now I'm so glad I did. Our waiter was incredibly sweet and patient with us, especially since we were a little indecisive and had plenty of questions. The restaurant itself was beautifully decorated, clean, and had a really nice atmosphere. I started with the lychee martini, which is easily in my top five lychee martinis I've had. The bread was a little underwhelming, but the butter made up for it. For my entrée, I ordered the wet-aged 16oz ribeye cooked medium, and wow -- it was phenomenal. Crispy on the outside, perfectly cooked, juicy, and served sizzling straight from the skillet. I got the green peppercorn sauce on the side, but honestly, the steak didn't even need it. For my side, I chose the Brussels sprouts with the delicious yuzu drizzle. I also sampled the truffle fries, creamed spinach, and lobster mac and cheese -- all were really good, but the creamed spinach completely stole the show. I will say the food took a while to come out, but they absolutely made up for it because everything tasted amazing. To top it off, someone from management brought complimentary celebratory lemon drop shots for the birthday girl. I'll definitely be dining at Little Alley again!

    Decided to do a date night at Little Alley Steak in Buckhead, and booking through OpenTable was…read morequick and easy. We arrived using the valet service, which usually makes dinner much more convenient. Unfortunately, this was probably the weakest part of the experience. The valet attendants weren't very welcoming, seemed a bit disorganized, and there was no one to open the door upon arrival. We also had to wait for our valet ticket, and retrieving our car at the end of the evening took much longer than expected. There's definitely room for improvement in this area. Once inside, check-in with the host was smooth, and we were seated on the outdoor patio with a beautiful view on a perfect summer evening. Our server, Jason, was phenomenal. He was attentive without being overbearing, knowledgeable about the menu, and had impeccable timing throughout the meal. He truly elevated the experience and is a great asset to the restaurant. I would absolutely request him again on a future visit. For appetizers, I highly recommend the fried Maine lobster tail--it was perfectly fried, well-seasoned, and delicious. The Kobe meatballs were good but didn't quite stand out enough to rave about. For our entrée, we shared the 24-ounce porterhouse with lobster mac and cheese and Brussels sprouts. Everything was well prepared, and we had no complaints about the meal. To drink, I ordered two vodka martinis and the guava vodka spritzer. The martinis were exactly what you'd expect, but the guava vodka spritzer stole the show. It was refreshing, beautifully crafted, and the perfect cocktail for a summer evening on the patio. My significant other enjoyed a glass of wine, and the wine selection appeared to offer plenty of options. One thing that stood out was the manager, Brit, making a point to greet several surrounding tables. We appreciated that level of hospitality and were actually looking forward to complimenting Jason's outstanding service. However, despite making eye contact, our table was completely skipped--no greeting, no smile, no acknowledgment. Combined with the disappointing valet experience, it left us feeling overlooked. While the food was excellent and Jason made our evening memorable, the lack of hospitality from both valet and management would make me think twice before choosing Little Alley over the many other great steakhouses in Atlanta. Jason, however, is the reason this visit ended on a positive note.
