Really good food!!!! One of Abilenes best in my opinion. Chips and Salsa is spot on. Queso is great! Personally, my favorite plate is the Pollo Plancha! Great service! And to top it off, they have my favorite beverages, Coca Cola Zero! I just wish they carried more glass bottle Fanta flavors or Barrilitos, giving more options for my kids. You won't go wrong choosing this place to eat. read more

Devided to try it after seeing the reviews and a recommendation. Definitely wasn't disappointed. I had the chilli relleno, which was different from what im used to, but was really good. Beans and and rice had alot of flavor. Wife had a chicken quesadilla they she enjoyed. Chips and salsa were different and had a little heat and alot of flavor. Food came out quick and service was really good. If you want some good Mexican food, give it a shot. read more

Are here at the recommendation of a friend and it did not disappoint! We had the chile relleno and the quesabirria, and will prob be getting them the next time. The staff were attentive and friendly folks and even tho the place was busy, we did not have to wait a ridiculous amount of time for our food which was awesome. It's a small place but have decent seating and not overcrowded. We've been back here twice after the initial visit already so I would def recommend! read more

Love it !!! Everything we have tried has been amazing. The service is wonderful as well. It's just a nice atmosphere

The place was a very down home Mexican restaurant. Great service. Chips and salsa was fantastic. The food came very fast and was the best Mexican food I've had in west Texas . I will call this place our New Mexican home for the best in Abilene. read more

I can't even begin to explain how much this place has surpassed my expectations. It's been over 2 years of trying to find places that feel like my home place. I can truly say this is one of the places I will be coming back for. The flavors were amazing. The service was extremely fast and the food came out so quick. The environment is very welcoming and the music is not too loud either but I love it so no complaints. 10/10 read more

Delicious and worth the wait! The portions are huge and you get what you pay for. We didn't have to wait long on a Saturday at lunch, but we would have waited for this! read more

Service is ok but food is so flavorful! It's not a fancy place but great for lunch with friends! We love the beef fajitas, carne assada and shrimp tacos. read more

Street tacos were super tasty. Friendly and fast service!! I went during early afternoon and was not super crowded and was able to enjoy my food without having to listen to multiple conversations from other folks. Visiting from Hawaii so I might have to come back before I leave. read more

We had heard and read several comments about Blue Agave so after a movie we went so find out. The room was full except one table so no wait. Started with chips and salsa which was ok, not really hot, but tasty and then we ordered the queso with steak. This was yummy. Our waitress was very informative, friendly and funny. Ordered chili rellano with a chicken enchilada, shrimp tacos and birria tacos. Plenty of food and charro beans were great! One of us ordered the habanero rice but couldn't really tell any difference than regular rice. We asked for tres leches, but they had run out. Service was excellent, food was hot and brought out timely. Paying with cash receives a slight discount. We enjoyed, so will return! read more

Blue Agave - Carnitas street tacos with the grilled jalapeños, rice and beans. Mmmmm - Mexican Near Me - Abilene, Texas

This is a true hidden gem! Service is amazing and food is consistently the best Mexican food in Abilene. The habanero rice is a must order if you like it a little spicy. The drinks from the bar are consistent and on point! Rocky the owner is amazing and making sure you have a great time! Would highly recommend! read more

The last business in this building was BBQ. Didn't last very long. Boom! Another Mexican restaurant has blessed Abilene with its presence. Blue Agave has been open a month so it's time to try them. Friday night so it's packed! Got the last open table, and even that has a story. Chips and hit sauce arrived quickly. Delicious! Fresh crisp chips and a slightly spicy hot sauce that had a hint of cilantro. Yum! My spicy grilled shrimp was covered in a medium hot red sauce. Loved it! Perfect for me. Glenda's birria tacos weren't true birria tacos, but she said they were delicious. She enjoyed the Pina colada even though it wasn't frozen. I took a sip and it was quite tasty. The meal was a little pricey at $60, but we really enjoyed it. Now, the table story. We had gotten the last table in the restaurant, and while we ate the power went out 3 times. Our table was under the emergency lights, so we were the only table with lights. Lucky! Y'all come try Blue Agave, you'll like it! read more

Oh my God!! Love this place!! Love the Nuevo Mexico cuisine. If you decide to have a margarita, do not attempt to drive! The salsa is delicious good flavor with the heat delayed. The chips are delicious. I had the rellenos and enchiladas. Absolutely delicious. Great atmosphere. Prices are very reasonable considering the portions. The staff is friendly and efficient. Definitely going eat there again. read more

Best TexMex I've had in months. I was beginning to think that traditional TexMex was dead in Texas. This is a traditional family run TexMex restaurant. No frills; just great food served quickly. read more

I've been here a couple of times before and never had the experience I had today. the food was AMAZING, as usual! However, there was a large woman who I had never seen before as our waitress and as soon as I told her I wanted a burrito, she just takes my menu from my hands and walks away as I was getting ready to order queso as an appetizer. I have never had this happen before and it made me so angry that I couldn't even finish my meal because all I was thinking about was how ignorant and rude the waitress was for doing that. THEN she brings me a warm beer with a bunch of salt on the rim of the glass, when I wanted a COLD beer without a half pound of salt on the glass. The whole experience was just weird and unexpected for this place and I honestly don't know if I'll be back after today. read more

Ate the California burrito. It was served with cheese sauce. It was huge and delicious. Waitress was helpful and attentive. read more

The queso flamenco with steak is a meal in it self and delicious to share with corn and flour tortillas. The habanero rice is superb and the beans taste homemade. read more

My husband and I decided to give this restaurant a try after hearing some great reviews from friends. Showed up a a little after 1:15, our waitress came up to the table almost immediately with chips and salsa and to get our drink order. Looked over the menu which has a lot of options. Placed our order and it came out 10-15 mins later. My husband got the California burrito with steak and I got the special of the day(2 enchiladas and a taco). His burrito was so big he had enough leftover for dinner. Food was absolutely amazing. In and out in under an hour. Staff was very friendly. We will definitely return read more

The food and service are always top notch! It is one of our regular go to places to eat!

Easily my new favorite Mexican food restaurant! Loved every bit of it. My husband tried the quesabirria and I tried the chicken chimichangas. Serving size of one dish is easily enough for two, so we had plenty of leftovers to bring home for later. The chips and salsa were fresh and flavorful. I even enjoyed the beans and rice (which I usually don't touch). I can't wait to go back again! read more

Loved the food and the drink drinks. The ambience was lacking, but honestly, the food made up for it.

Excellent food!! Very flavorful and the service was great. This is a little gem you want to try! read more

Brian and I went here again and the crowd wasn't anywhere near noisy. This time we were seated in the main dining room area and it was definitely a much better experience. The food was terrific! I had the Chorizo Pollo and Brian, my husband, had the enchiladas. Both of our meals were delicious and we enjoyed ourselves again. Our waitress was sweet and helpful and very attentive. Will definitely continue going there. The salsa and chips were great as well. The salsa reminds me of the salsa a good friend's wife used to make. The time of day that we went was the best. Nice crowd but not noisy. We went around 11:45. read more

With Blue Agave plugged into the gps two hours out, we were quite excited for some quick and tasty Mexican cuisine... We stepped in the restaurant with 50 minutes until close to get turned around after being asked to wait and she would be right back to help us. The parking lot was full but there were plenty of tables open. We just wanted a quick bite, now we will never be back. Rude service. Thumbs down. read more

Friendly staff. The queso and the (#15) quessabirria were delicious. Highly recommend for anyone looking for good Mexican in Abilene.

Amazing food, friendly staff I will definitely recommend to others and will be coming back

This is one of our new favorite restaurants! The food is great - my husband loves the Mexican burger, and I love the plate with a taco, tostada, and enchilada. The guacamole is soo good, too! Everyone we encountered from the hostess to the server, to other people who brought us chips, was friendly. The place is smaller, so you might have a wait if you're with a larger group. read more

Well second time was not a charm. Ordered sour cream enchiladas and avocado salad. Enchiladas came to the table, but not the avocado salad. No one ever came to check, as I would've asked about the salad and also told them they forgot the habanero rice. When I was finished eating the server finally came and asked if I needed anything and I said please cancel the salad, I'm done eating, and at that moment it was was delivered. I said I'd like to cancel that please because I'm finished eating. The server got extremely upset. I thought she was gonna throw the salad. She got another person and they came over and got upset with me also. I explained that I was done eating and apologized, but I would think that she would bring the order out at the same time, as I really did want to eat some of the salad. The server never came back and sent someone else to bring me the check. I tried to explain the confusion to them and they just said OK. Another person came over to ask what happened and I told them the same thing and even said if two people were sitting at the table together and both ordered a plate, you would not bring one plate 25 minutes after the other plate that would just be, poor procedure. Also, I suggested if a runner brings out the food, the server should come check on the table earlier to see if everything came out correctly. I also suggested that if a customer orders asalad, and a main dish, a good tip for the server would be to ask if they would like that salad to come out first and then hold the main dish for a couple of minutes. That would've solved all this, but to make the customer feel bad and treat them hostile is not the solution for an error. Interestingly of all the people that came to the table, it was 4, the manager was the only one who did not come. I promise I'm a nice guy. read more

We went back to Blue Agave Bar & Mexican Kitchen tonight for dinner. We had Rocky for our waiter, he was fantastic! We got there & it was slammed. we waited about 10 minutes to be seated. Not bad. We got our drinks & ordered the queso flamenco with chorizo & steak. On point. The chips and salsa are my favorite. Definitely a craving. I ordered a chimichanga shredded chicken. it come out and I had 2 on my plate. Only ate 1. Lawrence got a ernesto burrito, 2 long burritos, he only ate 1. We love it! it's welcoming & everyone is friendly. read more

Really good food! I had the cerviche and carnitas...both were delicious. Tastes their queso and was also delicious. Will be back.

This place is a gem! We were skeptical because of the outside appearance but glad we went in. The staff was friendly and provided great service. The cheese dip came in a skillet and was very tasty. We brought our son and they were great with kids and had crayons ready. If you like tres leche cake you have to order a slice here. We will be coming back again. read more

Service was quick and the food was even better! If you're in the Abilene TX area make sure you stop for some AMAZING food.

This was our third visit to Blue Agave and my second review. We thoroughly enjoyed the food and the service was exemplary. We will be back in about a month. I plan on trying the birria tacos. If I'd seen them on the menu I would have tried them today. Looking forward to our next visit. read more

This was the best food and service of any restaurant I have EVER been to. We had a new waitress and the manager came out to make sure she had everything just right, which she did fantastic. She was friendly and so was he. The food was out of this world great!!!! I had the Birria tacos, superb!! Grandkids had beef enchiladas, cheese enchiladas, and the burrito with carnitas. They all LOVED every bite!! My husband had a chicken meal and said it was fantastic as well. This was so wonderful that we may make a trip to Abilene just to go eat at this restaurant!!! We live 4 hours away but it would be worth the trip!! Blue Agave keep up the great work you are fabulous!!! The ambiance was fine but that's not what you go to a restaurant for in my opinion. Don't let the outside fool you this is definitely a diamond in the rough!!! I can't say enough good stuff about this place!!! read more

Finally decided to try this place and it didn't disappoint! Food came out relatively quickly, and was hot and tasty. The chips and salsa were also pretty good. read more

Mine and my daughter's food was disgusting. I had shrimp tacos and asked for corn tortillas, but they came with flour. I asked for corn tortillas and received them separate to make my own from the ones given. No sorry was said for giving me an incorrect food order. Then the kids chicken meal is a joke. She had one bite and said it was so gross. Was super greasy. My waiter did not care about us one bit and it was an annoyance to have him working. My shrimp were not cooked all the way. Where we were sat was off from the normal area and it was dirty, stinky, sticky, just horrid atmosphere. I have no idea how this place has so many good reviews. A friend just went for the first time last week and got food poisoning from the shrimp so I should consider myself lucky! read more

Great food! It's a bit small, so go early! Good service! Ambience is okay. They could use a better fly control solution, other than that, great! read more

Food was amazing and friendly service. It going to be our go to when we meet my parents halfway

Good Food. Good service. A little noisy but they were BUSY - so to be expected. Salsa was great!
