Stopped here on the way home from a long drive, and it was perfect!! Sat outside on the patio which was great, the service was weirdly awesome...food and drinks came out in minutes after ordering, and everything tasted great!! If I'm driving thru the area again, I'm 100% coming back! read more

Sooo superior to the Warrenton location oh my god. Better drinks, food and atmosphere. When the weather is nice, get a spot on the patio and the jumbo Pina Colada. Forever missing living right up the road from this restaurant. read more

El Agave - Fajitas tropical - Mexican Near Me - Marshall, Virginia

What a wonderful place! Looking for a cup of coffee and breakfast, we stopped at El Agave in the late morning. Our plates of huevos, veggies, and refried beans were delicious, generous, and fresh; ditto for the complimentary chips and salsa. Our server was responsive and helpful. The dining room was pleasant and comfortable. The tab ($25 for two adults) was a bargain. Highly recommended! read more

Omg what a gem- everything home made- fresh ingredients- just an absolute yum. Will go back for sure.

We are local and eat here, the food is ok. But today they said the patio was closed and it was a nice day inside is dark and dingy. So we left and went someplace more hospitable. read more

Hands down the best authentic Mexican restaurant I've ever been to!!!! Highly recommend!

Great spur of the moment stop! Salsa and chips were delicious. I had taquitos and was impressed. Great authentic Mexican. Service was fast!

Loved Agave Mexican in Marshall, VA! Low-key, unpretentious and yummy food! Beautiful weather to have lunch on the patio. Situated on busy road with a gravel parking lot, but still a nice rural environment for us city-folk! Wonderful service by Victor! 5 stars all around! read more

This Texas girlie was highly impressed by this restaurant. I walked in and felt right at home... the colors, sounds and smells were everything I'm used to seeing at traditional Mexican restaurants and given that DC has been quite disappointing with foreign food, my heart was quite happy to be here. First of all, this was the first place I noticed with refried beans on the menu since I got here a month ago. Secondly, the sauces on the windows just about warmed my ice cold heart. Thirdly, the food was seasoned well, cooked to perfection and had quite big portions. My friend and I kept eating way past when we should have. We meant to take leftovers home but had nothing left to take home and had to roll ourselves out of the restaurant. I got the Huevos Con Chorizo which had two scrambled eggs with Mexican sausage, Spanish rice, refried beans and tortillas - it was delightful! He got the El Agave Special with had One tamale, two taquitos mexicanos (chicken and beef), one nacho chip with beans, one with chicken, one with rice and one with beef, with cheese on all four. Served with lettuce, sour cream, guacamole and tomatoes - all for only $17.29. We started with a free chips and salsa (which was also yum) and washed it down with a potent margarita. This was such good food and very reminiscent of home. I would go there again in a heartbeat and highly, highly recommend it. Staff were also super friendly. read more

Great retro Mexican restaurant. The decor, the music and feel. Outside seating for nice weather. Easy to get to on rt. 55. The chips and salsa to start were top notch. All house made. The enchiladas, sauce rice and beans among the best I've had. All from scratch. House margarita was the icing on the cake. Service was great and atmosphere very casual and friendly. Worth a drive from anywhere in northern Virginia. read more

Nice, outdoor area that is dog friendly; the service was quick and the kids especially enjoyed the nachos.

The food was delicious, the service was quick and our waitress was kind, and the restaurant was beautiful! Definitely stop by if you're in the area! read more

Excellent! Worth the drive. Something in the spice Of the beef taco salad made this the best taco salad I've had to date. Guacamole was also very good. I will come back. read more

Such a yummy little spot! Our service was amazing and the food was great, too. We came for my great aunt's birthday and she was wanting some good Mexican food and dessert. Their salsa was delicious and we got two rounds of chips! I had the Birria Tacos with Consommé. Messy but worth it! The churros and fried icecream were great, too! read more

This USE to be my favorite Mexican restaurant. The food is great but when we were eating there today there was a roach crawling on our table. My boyfriend tried to kill it but it got away. We were so surprised to see this. Now we have to find a new favorite. read more

The food was delicious. The salsa was homemade and was the best I ever had. Staff was great. A little gem!!!

We were also so happy to come across this place. The wait staff were very friendly, there was a great selection on the menu, and the food was really, really good and the portions were generous. We are a Californians who live in a neighborhood famous for it's Mexican food, so we are a bit snobby about these things, but it did not disappoint! read more

Stopped here for lunch while traveling. Food was filling and tasty. Lots of vegetarian options. My son loved the fact that there were about eight different hot sauces on the table. read more

Fabulous! Love the food the service and the vibe. Highly recommend! Will drive out of my way for this place.

This is our family's go-to neighborhood restaurant in Marshall for special and casual occasions. The salsa is the best I have had and I have traveled throughout South and Central America and the Southwest of the US, yet is so unpretentiously served in a mini-carafe with warm chips. The rice and refried beans are incredibly tasty as are most things I have ordered, especially the veggie quesadilla. The service is mind boggling in efficiency, Victor is expert and unfazed by anything. read more

Yummy food! So lucky they are up the road from us!! It's authentic and delicious! We love the carne asada tacos and flautas!

This is 5 stars all the way. The people here are super friendly. The salsa is homemade and out of this world. Have now eaten many things on the menu and all of it was fantastic. I live about 35 miles away but think nothing of driving there to eat. Good Mexican food is so hard to find on the east coast. It's on the side of the road on rt 55, don't miss it. read more

Had a wonderful lunch on the way to West Va. The service was super fast despite it being packed. And the food was amazing. We had a green enchilada and tamale. The decor is very cool and place is very clean. read more

Stopped by based on the positive reviews. I got the chimichangas beef and chicken. Both were very flavorful, with a generous amount of guacamole and sour cream to to them off. The beef was chunks of well seasoned beef, not just ground beef, so it had good texture along w the flavor. Overall a nice small family run restaurant. Recommended. read more

El Agave - Small cozy, clean and colorful interior. - Mexican Near Me - Marshall, Virginia

This is such a cute little place. The outside area is very nice and the inside is rather small. Biggest issue is that it is understaffed. It took quite a while to order, to receive food, and to pay. There were only two waiters/waitresses available. They were hustling but could not keep up. The tea is from a machine and is not good. read more

This place is the best! Awesome food and margaritas and it's very clean. The staff is fast and very friendly. My husband and I drive from Front Royal to Marshall because we love it 100 times more than the restaurants by our house. read more

Just tried El Agave for the first time and we loved the food. Large portions, cheap prices, and the food tasted great. I will definitely be a returning customer. read more

I have been driving by this place for quite some time and decided to stop because I love Mexican food and I was very hungry. I will probably be planning my service visits to Middleburg as to stop here every time from now on. Yes, it is that good. I'm a BIG fan of guacamole and these guys make some of the best I've ever had. The Relleno was spot on too. Even the complimentary salsa was muy delicioso! I wish I lived closer so I could eat here more than once a month...sigh... but am happy my work sends me by here monthly. read more

El Agave - Lunch Special #1 Guacamole salad, taco, refried beans and Chile Relleno. My favorite! (So far). - Mexican Near Me - Marshall, Virginia

This is an OK Mexican Restaurant for Warrenton. You can go to Gainesville if you really want to eat at a nice Mexican Restaurant. At El Agave I usually have the chicken fajitas which have a good taste with the peppers, onions, and cheese. I also like the rice and refried beans. For the last several months their credit card machine has not been working so they only take cash or a check. That problem may have been corrected and then it may not have been corrected and it has a tendency to reoccur after it has been fixed. Their food is tasty and service is excellent. read more

El Agave - Here I am at El Agave, in Marshall, VA. Love this place! Excellent Mexican food, great attention by the server Víctor. - Mexican Near Me - Marshall, Virginia

First time eating here. I picked up a to-go lunch order. I eat low carb and they helped me to make a few modifications to my order. I ordered huevos con chorizo and shrimp fajitas. Both were excellent and the price was very fair. read more

summary: likely the best restaurant in The Plains. Service: We came here around 3pm on a weekend for a late lunch. I assumed that the place would be close to empty, but boy was I wrong. We grabbed one of the few empty tables. A few minutes later, all other tables and the bar seating filled up. There was only one man serving everyone and it was clear that he was busy. But he stayed cool and polite throughout our time. We ordered and expected the kitchen to be behind, but our dishes came out surprisingly quickly. Food: Outstanding. The pulled chicken in the burritos was my favorite and the red sauce (enchilada-style sauce?) on and around the dishes was excellent. Everyone at my table was very pleased with their food. Value: Prices seemed to be around average for this kind of food in a sit-down setting, but since the food is so above average, the value is great. read more

Not sure what happened but possibly changed cooks or something. Was good but never great. I liked going there for a few drinks with chips, salsa and guacamole. Use to like their shrimp or steak fajitas but now everything seems way under seasoned along with over cooked and dry. I can now only tolerate their drinks with chips and dips...so sad read more

This restaurant is located in the middle of nowhere and it feels so authentic all around. Atmosphere is very warm though it's not very clean. Their food is very good and fresh. I got chimichangas and it was delicious and their salsa tasted fresh and authentic. Piña colada was standard and refreshing. The service was a bit slow and restaurant was not as clean but I'd definitely come back again! read more
