The food is great. The atmosphere outside is nice in the dining on weekends as music is playing. The flight of mixed drinks were just enough. We love doing the lava bowl meals as the food stays hot through out the meal. read more

I am writing to formally express my concern regarding the conduct of your establishment. It is both discriminatory and unacceptable to accuse individuals of misconduct without substantiated evidence. Such actions reflect a serious lapse in judgment and professionalism, and they undermine the principles of fairness and respect that customers are entitled to expect. Furthermore, the failure to provide appropriate and satisfactory customer service in this matter has compounded the issue. I respectfully request that this situation be reviewed promptly and that appropriate measures be taken to ensure that all customers are treated with fairness, dignity, and respect moving forward. read more

Awesome place the table side guacamole was the best I've had. V ery cool place, and wait staff is excellent. love this place our new favorite Mexican place. read more

The margaritas were good Tacos were flavorful! Only deducted 1 star because I asked for avocado on our appetizer and was charged and then when the dish came out it already had avocado! Not cool to charge for something that already comes on it. Server should've stated that (it doesn't say on the menu) or removed the charge when we got the app. Other than that I would come back for their taco specials and fun special drinks like the churro one. read more

Agave Underground - Mexican Near Me - Fort Collins, Colorado

My friends and I used to love this place but the quality has really gone downhill. The staff used to be great but now seem disengaged and disinterested in providing service. We continued to go because we loved this place for their drinks and location across from the theater. But after our last visit, we will not be going back. Shortly after our food came out, there was a small cockroach crawling on our table. It's especially concerning that it came out with the food... I then began to notice the lack of cleanliness, dirty bar, dirty glasses, and I do not feel comfortable eating there again. We quickly got our bill and left. I really hope things change and they can get it together. read more

Great Mexican food!! Tableside guacamole is the best we've ever had. We loved the Regio tacos. Traditional margaritas are very good too. Service is great, very attentive. Inside is decorated tastefully and patio seating is large, lighted and covered...perfect for Summer and early Fall. read more

I had to travel all the way to Ft Collins to have the best guacamole I've ever tasted in the States (c'mon San Diego, step up your game!). This spot is a gem, blending regional Mexican flavors with visually pleasing decoration and good service. I enjoyed everything that I tried here! The meal begins with a complimentary cup of consomme de fideo--this little touch brings back memories of some of my fave DF joints and is an authentic hospitality gesture shared by very few Stateside Mexican spots. The Yucatan style guac was served tableside, and you can specify texture (chunky, obvio) as well as which ingredients you want included (todos, también obvio). The addition of pomegranate seeds put this already extremely flavorful concoction into guac all star territory. We got the tacos + margaritas flight special, so got to sample three different margarita flavors (all nicely decorated, my fave was the Jamaica-infused La Frida) as well as three different tacos (al pastor, properly served with charred pineapple unlike at most SD spots, tempura shrimp and macho). All three tacos had enormous quantities of filling--My fave was the Macho which contained huge plantain chunks smothered in mole negro and topped with pickled onion. Only tiny note was that the blended margaritas could have been icier, but it was a warm day so they likely melted faster than normal. Overall, excellent flavors and variety of colorful, well plated regional Mexican options here. read more

This place is hit or miss. We came with friends a month ago and loved it. We came again and people left because of lack of service and there were very few people here. My dinner was not what I ordered and they didn't bother to explain they were out of things that were to be included. They did give us a discount so that's a plus. read more

This place is great! It was our first time here and it will be a place we will frequent. It's a fun atmosphere with cool decor. They serve a small cup of homemade warm soup as you sit down. It is soooo good! The menu is large with many choices for different tastes. There are tacos, seafood dishes, burritos , array of appetizers and a bar that will serve anything you might want. The margaritas are delicious!! They have margarita flights to have the chance to taste all flavors. They also have salsa flights with chips. We ordered a couple shrimp dishes , the jalapeño poppers and several margaritas. The food was delicious. Full of flavor and served hot. The service was also great. They explained the menu well, offered recommendations and were very friendly. Go check them out.... You won't be disappointed. read more

I loved the salsa sampler! We got abuela, verde, and mango habanero. Each flavor was delicious and so flavorful. There are three guac options all made table side. I love the guac experience it was so much fun. The inside of the restaurant was beautiful. I love the vibe and the colors. read more

Just tried this place for the first time, and it will be the last time! First off, the waitress was clueless as how to serve, or take orders, or anything of the sort. Took forever to get her to do the most basic of things. Ordered a Arnold Palmer and she came back from the bar saying they didn't have that kind of beer.. lol.. then we ordered ice tea, and they said they hadn't ordered any because the owner was out of town. The food ordered took nearly 30 minutes and there was maybe three other tables of customers. We ordered the fajitas split for two people, and when it came out had only one small plate of the toppings. I explained this was to be split for two and she said thats not hope they do it there, and took off without bringing even a second plate to eat off of. I had to build my fajitas on my napkin because the waitress was nowhere to be found to ask for another plate.. she didn't even check on our table until too late at which point the taste of the food was succumb to the distaste of my experience, and we wanted to leave. It was very dry/cold atmosphere with no background music or ambiance. Just the echoes of the near customer conversations. Looks to be built around the bar and the TV's and maybe the transient movie goers that might get sucked into this restaurant for a couple quick drinks before their movie. Bad experience overall.. would not suggest this place! 0 stars read more

Our server did not speak any English (could not answer any questions about the menu or food items, could only say "ok" and "thank you"), and the level of cleanliness in the restaurant was appalling. I actually didn't feel safe eating there. On top of that, I have an allergy, and didn't think the server could understand or care for the allergy, and did not trust any surface of the kitchen to be kept organized or clean considering we were seated next to the bar which was piled with employee belonging, open Amazon boxes, sweaters, etc. The menu was worn and faded and sticky. I didn't even feel comfortable drinking the water. I would've left right away but my friend had ordered a beer (came with a lid thank goodness) so I had to wait for them to finish before we could leave. The owner stepped in to vaguely answer a question (I asked if they had any hard cider, which my server said "chicken?") and was dressed so casual I asked if he even worked there. I would never eat here or recommend. No idea how this place is even open. ZERO STARS. read more

We were the only ones in the restaurant at noon on a Sunday. We were seated right next to a bussing station and two people folding napkins around silverware. They were about 3 feet away. It seemed like our seats were more about their convenience than our comfort as they were stacking plates behind us and it was loud. We found a ring on the floor and tried to give it to our server. She said it wasn't hers, but we again commented it was on the floor by our table and it wasn't ours. When the food arrived about 3 minutes after ordering it, it looked beautiful, but it was not flavorful and the beans were cold. The last time we ordered the same thing and it was so good, we talked about it for weeks. This time didn't come close. For no drinks and bland food, the cost is far too high for us to be repeat customers. read more

Always a treat to dine at Agave Underground. While we don't go often, the food and drinks are always excellent. We went last night and were seated right away, the appetizer was brought out fast and the food was phenomenal. The waitress was new, but friendly and sweet. The vibe is so fun inside or on the patio. We have tried several different dishes, drinks and appetizers and don't have any complaints! Their salsa and guac are some of the best we've ever had. We highly recommend! read more

Horrible service, waited over 30 min for drink order. Very few people in the restaurant so no excuse for lazy customer service. The owner sat on his butt at the bar and did nothing to help the 2 staff members trying to service the patrons. The table next to us found a hair in their food and nothing was done to compensate them. I would never recommend this place to anyone! read more

What a fantastic authentic Mexican restaurant! The atmosphere is killer and so fun. Food is incredible! It's a good family spot or date night or drinks. We had a great time and will continue to return! read more

Came here for the happy hour and was very pleased. Water in a decanter arrived immediately, followed by a delicious complimentary Mexican spaghetti soup, a big surprise! Started with the nachos, a light white cheese really set the plate off. Happy hour tacos were great, barbacoa beef was flavorful, but the birria taco was the best! Generous portion of grilled fish on the taco made for a a satisfying taco. Great prompt service, will be back to sample the dinner menu! read more

This was our second time coming, and just like the last time, food was good and service is slloooowww. I ordered the taco bar flight which came with 3 margaritas and 3 tacos and it was good. My husband ordered fajitas and those were also good. We ordered the tres leches to go and it was absolutely horrible! In no way was it a tres leches. It was soooo dry and neither of us liked how it tasted. That was a waste of money. Overall the food is good but service needs improvement read more

First time here with my wife, and it was great. We will absolutely be back. We order 2 beers, salsa flight, and 2 tacos each. Both of us really enjoyed the elevated style of Mexican food and it certainly adds a much needed Mexican flavor profile to Fort Collins. I would put Agave Underground in the category of Authentic / Elevated / Sit-down Mexican food, as opposed to street/taqueria/market. Ambiance was good, the place felt clean, service was great. read more

We weren't greeted at the door, dude eventually showed up and walked us to the table without a word. Sat for 15-20 minutes without acknowledgment, left. Plenty of other Mexican restaurants out there. We're not difficult to please but at least make an attempt. read more

No chips and salsa are offered but you can order them. We both had grilled burritos. One chicken and one barbacoa. Both had good flavor. Green chili was good but oddly watery. Other than lettuce, Pico and a spoonful of guacamole nothing else came with the burrito. Food came timely. However our server NEVER returned to check back on us. Didn't stop back to refill drinks and or ask us if we needed anything. Wanted salt and pepper (none on table) and some sour cream. Server was not busy. It was 4:00 pm and only 2 other tables. She was busy wrapping silverware and chit chatting with th e bartender who was sitting at the bar watching TV. The seat we sat at was cracked, had holes in it with some holes repaired with duct tape. Bathroom could be cleaner. Also an odd charge on the bill (PIF 1%) have no idea what that is. I really expected better being a newer restaurant in that shopping area. read more

Delicious food. Good bang for your buck. Amazing staff. I've already been back a few times since I visited on June 5, 2025.

New restaurant review Who: Agave Underground Where: located across the street from the movie theatres at Foothills Mall About them: This is a high-end take on traditional Jalisco Mexico food recipes. The Feed.. Appetizer: Salsa Tasting, Abuela - tradition tomato salsa Mango Habanero - Mango, roasted hot peppers Avocado Mousse - Jalapeños, Cilantro, avocado, avocado oil Mole De Origen - too many ingredients to list but I highly recommend ordering a side of this with your chips just to try it... thank me later All above were served with blue chip tortillas Main items ordered: Grilled Burrito - I chose the asada. Salsa fresca, charro beans, mexican crema smothered in green chile Bacalar Scallops - seared scallops with jicima slices, bacalar sauce, fresh mango Salsa, fired green onion, fine herbs, Macha oil Tacos de carreta - Jr Sinaloense - carne asada De Panza - slowly cooked pork belly Al Pastor - guajillo marinated pork Ensenada - Beer battered fish Pollo A Las Brasas - Octopus marinated in oil then grilled Zara - Grilled red snapper Arrachera - carne asada steak served with a fresh Cilantro chimichurri and rotillas Postres - Prickly Pear Cactus cheesecake. Just incredible.. Drinks : Tequilas... the Mango shotta which is a mix of Mango and jalapeno.. WOW! The experience: Ok... we have actually tried more items on the menu than this but I did not want to write a 16 chapter book. THE FOOD HERE IS NEXT LEVEL AMAZING. We walked in 2 days after their soft open and have been back 6 times since. They do not officially open until sometime in November as they work out the "kinks" All I can say is that the way they have built their flavor profiles is exactly what you would expect from a Higher end establishment. They did this while preserving the traditions of their ancestors in Jalisco while adding new life to very common dishes... nothing common about this place. The salsas are amazing, the proteins are amazing. I spoke with the chef who told me point blank.. "if it's not perfect it does not leave the kitchen". That is a very hi bar to set for excellence. The staff is new and friendly. The biggest issue we have seen is they are still not eyes up in the front of house and there were a couple of times where we had to wait for a considerable amount of time at the bar for someone to help us when it was not busy. As we have communicated this to ownership this has improved. This place is going to crush it and if you are a fan of Buena Vida or Blue Agave then this place should impress you. Happy eating! read more

Absolutely incredible food and atmosphere. Very nice staff. Lots of well-spaced seating. Would highly recommend.

Amazing food, drinks,and service! I had the Chipotle enchiladas and it was fantastic! The 50/50 margarita was so good, that I had 2! Definitely would recommend! I look forward to my next meal here! read more

FOCO needed a fun modern Mexican restaurant that's chef driven and has a large bar area. The menu has lots of variety with small plates and unique offerings. Small group of us tried the loaded queso served in a heated bowl and chicken enchiladas some tacos and ceviche along with margs. Good prices. Really nice people work there. Easy access and parking is a bonus! read more

Food was average service was terrible. Waited 15 minutes for two of the 6 dishes didn't take it off the bill or do anything to make it right read more

Staff all made eye contact when we arrived and then went on to other things, then finally someone seated us. Only maybe 6 tables seated so not like it was busy. Only friendly person was the nice man who brought soup. All other staff not interested in doing much. Margarita was 90% ice. Carne Asada arrived and was more like beef jerky. Very disappointed overall and will not be returning. Go anywhere but here read more

Terrible service, waitress was slow as possible. didn't check on re-fills once. Server was downright rude and got orders wrong....food was crap...overall experience was not worth out money read more

This was our second time here-our first was pretty good overall first impression. Our second time, we were sat next to a group of six people, even though they were multiple empty tables around. This group was drinking and cursing incessantly, and we had a child at the table with us. Our waiter took approximately 25 minutes to get to us initially. Our order took another 60 minutes. We ordered tacos and enchiladas, the tacos are probably some of the worst I've ever had any restaurant. We also ordered tableside guacamole, it came out already prepared. We had not stated that we had wanted it to be less on certain things. Since the first time we came, they made it tableside. We asked why it was premade and he said he was trying to save time. We had to send it back and have it made again since there was way too much onion and jalapeños in it. I would suggest that if it's not going to made table side as stated on the menu, to have the menu not say that. We really wanted this place to work, but for $100 a meal without drinks, excessively slow, service, and mediocre food. We will not be back. read more

Hands down my favorite Mexican restraint in Fort Collins. For the price, environment, service, presentation, flavor and creativity makes me appreciate eating out. Everything we had was AMAZING! read more

We had a short wait to be seated and took a short while to also get our orders taken. Water carafe at our table. It's so nice to have real glasses and have water that does not taste like bleach. Booths are back to back with no real barrier inbetween so makes for a lot of interesting listening from loud talkers. Music is loud so everyone is trying to talk above it. The food was great and the dishes we had were not too spicy. Drinks were on the high end price range. We will definitely be back for their daily happy hour from 2-5 pm. We had the traditional chile rellenos with a sauce having a good balance between sweet and tomato flavor. Grilled carne asada burrito was delicious! Topped with sour cream, a dash of the tastiest guacamole and shredded lettuce. Smothered with the most flavorful sauce to match the equally yummy filling. Slightly on the salty side for me though. Menu options are a departure from standard cheesy offerings here in Colorado. Some on the higher price point. No free chips and salsa, although you get a small serving of type of tomato based vegetable soup. (Nice touch and flavorful too). All in all an enjoyable experience. The layout of the large place provides different areas for seating as well. read more

- THIS IS A WONDEFUL ADDITION TOO THE FOCO MALL - I was shopping with my mother when we heard of this new place in town. We met up with a friend and thought it would be nice to try out. It's a slower time/day with everyone getting ready for thanksgiving, however the staff was super kind, understood their menu items thoroughly, and were efficient when delivering our food too the table. I ordered the Agave DLX Burrito with carnitas inside, and the table shared the queso, octopus tacos, and chips and salsa. All of the menu items I just listed, were perfect (mind you, I have a culinary arts degree and so did the fellow whom joined us). The chili that came with the burrito was so good, I might just have to order a jar too take home. The queso was thick and creamy, everything else had a beautiful zest and authenticity in flavor. Definitely the best Mexican restaurant in Fort Collins, very excited too watch this place grow. (PS: The food is on the pricier side, however, I'd rather pay more money for delicious food, than waste it somewhere else.) read more

Food was amazing! And they were dog friendly and provided water bowls, would come back again with a group of any size

As others have stated, the service is slow. It took over 10 minutes just to be greeted by our server to take our drink orders. It sorta went down hill from there. First, the good. The queso came bubbling hot and was very tasty. It's served in a hot molcajete so it's hot through the period. Next, everything else. Aside from the drinks taking 20 minutes from being sat, and the food taking almost 45. Most of the food was either very salty, incorrectly prepared, or missing items. The table side guac, I didn't see them put lime in it - but the lime was so overpowering the guac wasn't edible. The expensive steak dinner was overcooked, overly salty, and came without the included tortillas. The tacos were incorrect and had to be swapped. The sprite had no syrup anymore so we had to stick with water. The 18$ margarita, was served in a small rocks glass. I've seen some great reviews and really wanted this to work out but it was a slow evening, so they weren't busy and we couldn't get prompt service. The food wasn't worth the price, nor were the drinks. read more

Absolutely terrible service. The worst I think I've ever experienced. For a Tuesday night, you'd expect so much more. It took two people at the bar 45 mins before we even received chips and queso. Everything after that was an additional 45 mins too late. The manager took half the items off our bill either because we never received it or it came too late. Seriously, don't eat here... people were coming in and leaving without even having been recognized by a staff member. No drinks, no food or anything. Restaurants with this bad of service should close their doors if they can't accommodate customers. And it wasn't even busy. read more

Just tried this place for lunch and it was fantastic! I got the margarita flight and the Fajitas Al Pastor. Delicious food and a HUGE portion for the money. I brought my leftovers home and made literally three more meals out of it. Beyond that the flavors were on point for various regions from Mexico and I got great service. Highly recommend! read more
