    Tacos

    Too expensive charge me extra for what I ordered they put like $30 dollars extra into my receipt the tip was separate!!

    Beef and two chicken tacos.
    Michael S.

    Summary: An inviting atmosphere, a large and varied menu with fair prices, and satisfying though not exceptional food. El Agave is larger on the inside than it looks from the street and has an outside patio dining area. Complementary chips and salsa arrived quickly. Neither tasted particularly fresh but were satisfactory. Every table had a QR scan to bring up the menu on your phone. It opened a nine page selection of apps, fajitas, burritos, steaks, combinations, lunch specials and more. All I wanted was a better-than-Taco Bell taco--not really a high bar. With a choice of beef or chicken I split the three tacos between a beef and two chicken. I wasn't given an option for soft or crispy shells and all arrived with crispy. The ground beef didn't pass the Taco Bell test. It lacked seasoning and tasted simply like cooked ground beef. The moist chicken taco used breast meat and was far superior. Fortunately, I needed no additional service after my meal was dropped off because the server never checked on me. Would I return? Maybe. More likely, I'd give another local Mexican spot a try.

    Came in for lunch on Sunday at 12:30. Seated right away and immediately brought chips, salsa and water. Offered specials on drinks - which we took them up on. Our food was brought out quickly and everything was VERY TASTY. Overall, I had a very good experience. I woukd like a little better explanation of the food specials than I recieved...more than just 'it's got beef in it', but our server was friendly and attentive. Parking was ample. Will definitely be back for dinner.

    First time coming here and I can say that I will definitely be back again. Went with my two friends Tuesday evening right before the dinner rush. We had a great server, probably one of the best servers I've ever had at a Mexican Restaurant. Tex-Mex restaurants are one of my favorite to go to, I have this particular entree that I like to order called Quesadilla Mexicana that I happen to find at almost any Tex-Mex restaurant. This time I decided to order a "Quesadilla Special" which instead of chicken or beef, it's a cheese quesadilla with chorizo, Mexican sausage. It was flavorful, and the sides of lettuce tomato and guacamole were all fresh. We received our food at a decent time. We also ordered their special small pitcher of lime margaritas. Great experience!

    Blue Margarita's!

    Benefits Bistro is a companion found inside of Friendship Brewing in Wentzville Missouri. When you…read morecome into Friendship Brewing, you can order beer from the waitress but you will have to proceed to the back of Friendship Brewing to order your own food. Benefits Bistro is the food service located within Friendship Brewing. My favorite is the Cajun beef which is served on a flatbread. It was not what I expected the first time I ordered it, but, I was pleasantly surprised as it was excellent. It is served with Billy Goat Potato Chips, which is just the perfect combination with a Friendship Kolsch. The Cajun beef is one of those taste that you will remember and crave, requiring you to return to Friendship Brewing and the Bistro to satisfy your hunger. We found Friendship Brewery about six or seven months ago and has been back numerous times since. Everyone who comes here says it is one of their new favorites. The Friendship Brewery has lots of historic beer memorabilia that decorate the old building. A music stage is located on the back of a flatbed truck inside of the restaurant. They also have a very attractive outside dining area. Come to Benefits Bistro and try the Cajun beef or another delectable item, and a fresh brew from Friendship Brewing. You will be coming back for more

Chairs and table was quite wobbly and unstable. My shrimp po boy was ok, shrimp was excellent but bread was dry and crumbly. Wife ordered pulled pork but received Cajun beef, basically sliced deli roast beef with a spicy sauce. Wife's mouth can't handle spicy so 2/3 of the sandwich was left uneaten. Though the place was mostly empty, it took 10 minutes to get my beer order, their in house brewed Andrew's ale, and I wasn't much of a fan of this bitter ale. We won't be back.
