    Went last night to watch the Draft and had a great time!! Josh hooked us up at the bar & kept us entertained! It was clean & very spacious in there. I will come back to try the food as we just went to drink.

    The ambience of the restaurant was an A+. I pass by weekly when heading to the gym so visiting Ancho has been on my list of to do's. Glad I finally stopped by. The service was exceptional as well. Our waiter gave us tips, suggestions, warnings so I knew not to order something spicy. I always appreciate the honest of the waiting staff, it makes my experience so much better. We started with the queso. I would say it was pretty mild, not as flavorful as some other quesos I've tried. The Plantains were delicious, nice change in taste from the savory flavors in the main course. I decided to try the smoked chicken enchiladas but hope to try more when I make it back. They were very filling, the chicken was tender in spots but not throughout the enchilada. So a little disappointed but still tasted good overall. I felt like I would have liked to have a little less Verde sauce as it was slightly overwhelming. Check it, enjoy the ambience and the food.

    New mexican place in LS, yay! The good: -Our waitress was also the bartender and was great. Very nice and helpful -The margaritas are excellent -I did the chicken taquitos and they were very very good -The complimentary salsa is a hit The less good: -The queso is crazy bland. Literally tastes like nothing

    4.5/5 Great location. Inside was clean, plenty of seating, and aesthetically pleasing. We shared chips, guac, and salsa (the rest of the group also had queso, which they guarded like it was gold). I ordered the Smoky Blood Orange cocktail -- strong, with just a whisper of blood orange. It hits fast... the kind of drink that reminds you to pace yourself. For my entrée, I had the mesquite‑smoked chicken enchilada, and wow. Easily the best enchilada I've had so far. Packed with flavor, super tender chicken, sitting on cilantro lime rice with a tomatillo green chile sauce. Fantastic! Enough leftover to take with! My only complaint? I wish they had a bigger drink and appetizer selection. Overall, though, this place was great -- definitely worth the visit.

    The scenery, lights, cleanliness- I love! The Jalapeño Margarita oh my goodness. Just became my favorite over Don Chuys We ordered the Armstrong queso dip- delicious I'm not a fan of the idea of the burrito turned into a salad(bowl). I believe when you add salad to your bowl. It's a salad. No longer considered a bowl. But still love the place. Will return to try something else! The bartender is a delight to engage with.

    If you are looking for a Mexican restaurant with different flavors than the standard Mexican places in Lees Summit, I would highly suggest going to Ancho & Agave. Everything that I tried there was delicious and fresh. I loved all of the different single tacos you could pick from so you could mix and match to what you are feeling. We went on a Thursday night and it was packed. There are lots of tables and it was pretty loud so I would take that into consideration. But overall it was a good time and our waitress was very nice. I am looking forward to going back.

    The atmosphere was great-minus the sun because they hadn't gotten their blinds yet. The chips and salsa were underwhelming, as were the margaritas and cheese dip. My husband had three tacos and really enjoyed the Nashville chicken taco. I think I had a burrito or enchilada. It was good, but not anything I would go back for. Overall, it felt like they are trying to make an upscale Mexican restaurant with ingredients that don't necessarily make sense. Unfortunately, we won't be back

    Pollo Asado burrito
    Candice S.

    Beautiful and delicious! This place is brand new and it sure is popular. We arrived around 5pm without a reservation on a Saturday and were told it would be a 40 minute wait. We got on their waitlist which was monitored by phone, which I love. It wasn't needed though because we got seats at the bar within minutes. On top of being crowded, it sounded like they may have ran out of a few things. Understandable for a new, popular restaurant while they learn inventory needs. Our bartender/waiter was very friendly. She was overwhelmed with people and change but still managed to take care of everyone in a timely manner. The food: my burrito was perfect. I haven't had Mexican food with this many spices and flavors in years. To be honest, I've grown accustomed to the typical generic flavors around here. It was so refreshing to taste something with such complexity. I was blown away by the chicken tortilla soup at the first bite, and my burrito was delicious. My margarita was very good, but the raspberry was subtle. The salsa served with the chips was flavorful without being spicy. The chips seemed homemade, which is nice but not my favorite. I can't wait for this place to die down a bit or I plan it enough in advance to make a reservation. I want to try everything on their menu.

    Happy hour menu
    Caroline W.

    I was excited to try a new spot in town! We came for happy hour, which was a little early in my opinion. There is a ton of seating inside but it didn't feel too crowded. Our server Paris was awesome, so friendly and nice! The food was fine but nothing really stood out to me. I had three tacos: sweet potato, grilled shrimp, and blackened salmon. I loved the different textures in the sweet potato. The grilled shrimp had a bit too much of the mango for me. The salmon was definitely my favorite! I'm also not usually a fan of corn tortillas but these were delicious! We also had an order of the esquites. The corn was grilled and felt fresh. The sauce felt a little too processed, almost like powder cheese. All in all, the menu is so big that I would definitely return and try some other things!

    Chips and homemade salsa
    Jen S.

    Went back to try full on happy hour last night and it was fantastic! Had to write another review because we tried so many different things. This place is the real deal if you're looking for something new and Mexican. You won't find these options anywhere else.

    Cheese dip for Happy Hour -bland and runny
    Sandy L.

    This is a new restaurant in Lee's Summit. I have been twice. Based on other reviews I guess it's personal taste regarding margaritas. Our group found them very tart and undrinkable. They replaced our first drinks but the second one was not much better. The pitcher was $50 and packed with ice. The drinks are very expensive and really get more ice than drink.. Happy Hour food was unremarkable. Dinner was street tacos-gringo and carnitas which were good and reasonably priced each. We also shared the Gringo burrito was really good. At $17 for a burrito, it is very expensive but it was huge so we split it which took the sting from the price. We asked for spicier salsa but it was an extra charge that typically is not an up charge. I am sure they will make some tweaks in the coming weeks. We will not return for the margarita but we will probably try the food again however we will be price conscious on what we order. We were hoping this would be a place where we could meet our friends for dinner and drinks regularly but this is not the place.

    Went for lunch with friends and tried a couple tacos and the stacked nachoes el jefe. Wow. The mango chutney on the grilled shrimp taco was so good! Everything was flavorful! The chips and salsa were great. I like that the salsa wasn't chunky and was a bit sweet. We also tried the esquites and it was so good! The sides are all al la cart for the tacos though so we didn't get anything else. Can't wait to come back and try the margaritas. The service was quick, great, and friendly. The restaurant has such cute decor and very Tex Mex vibe. Can't wait to come back and try more.

    Everything was amazing! Food, margaritas, service, atmosphere! such a good addition to Summit Fair! Pricing is very normal for a place of this atmosphere!

    Food is mediocre and the ambience feels like a tired trope from 2010. It is shame that this is what opened up in 2026.

    Place is very cute and drinks were good. The food was terrible, dishes were not cleaned properly, and service was slow.
