It was pretty empty and not somewhere you would think has amazing food based on looks but it was a great choice and I am thankful for the reviews that helped us choose. Food was amazing and so was the service!!

I hadn't eaten at Black Agave since the change in ownership, so I decided to try them by placing a…read moreDoorDash order. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to try their food this time. The staff was friendly and did call me, as I had requested, if there were any issues with fulfilling the order, which I appreciated. During the call, I was informed that the carne asada tacos listed as "2 for $4.88" on the à la carte menu were actually priced per taco, not for two. I was also told that the two four-enchilada dinners I ordered could not be fulfilled because they were out of shredded beef. They offered chicken or pork as substitutes, but my family was hoping for beef, as I make chicken enchiladas at home regularly and we don't care for pork. The person I spoke with was courteous and apologetic and explained that beef was cooking, but it would take about 1.5 hours. Unfortunately, my DoorDash driver had already arrived. The driver was very patient and even offered to help by calling me so I could cancel the order. I initially tried to cancel through the DoorDash app, but it indicated I would need to forfeit the full amount, so I contacted DoorDash customer service instead. After explaining that the situation was unforeseen and not really anyone's fault, they were able to issue a partial refund to my card, with the remaining amount provided as DoorDash credit. I did briefly consider waiting for the beef and adjusting the order, but with the wait time and pricing, we decided to look at other options. I ended up placing an order with El Ranchero instead and had no issues. Their family enchilada deal included 20 shredded beef enchiladas, rice, beans, and chips with salsa for a similar price, which worked better for our family that evening. My only recommendation would be that if you're ordering from Black Agave through DoorDash--especially since it appears to be a smaller restaurant--it may help to call ahead to confirm availability and pricing before placing the order.

This place recently changed names (maybe owners?) but has a solid menu and even better food! My…read morefamily stopped in around 430pm on a Sunday to discover it empty aside from one other table. Our table ordered steak fajitas and carne asada. Both were delicious. I really appreciated that when I told the server that I couldn't have dairy so I needed to omit the sour cream and guac for my fajitas, she pointed out that the beans have cheese on them, so she'd have that omitted as well. The portion sizes were perfect and service was remarkably fast, too. Only thing to point out is that they have Starry on tap, instead of Sprite or 7Up.

Headed in for all you can eat Taco Tuesday in the Cantina & was not disappointed. As per the sign…read moreof photo posted, there are 3 meat options for one's tacos ordered & of course also soft or crunchy tacos; sides are available at additional charge. And as is common, purchase of a beverage; Pepsi products are available for an option of NA along with coffee & tea. I tried one crunchy taco of each meat choice to begin. Each taco was filled with the meat & usual toppings- they did not scrimp, much to my delight. It was hard to find room to get some salsa incorporated into each taco After the first round of tacos, I decided I had preference for the birria & chicken meats for my tacos, so finished my meal with 2 more chicken & 1 birria for a total of 6- numO All of the servers were very delightful & attentive. As more diners move in for their taco Tuesday meals, there can be a little bit of a wait time for additional tacos, but there's always chips & salsa to fall back on. Speaking of which, their table salsa is mild to medium & seemed to be freshly made in house. I'm guessing that for those who like a hotter salsa, it may be available upon request. Bottled sauces were also seen upon other's tables, but not mine & I considered that nor did I ask for any. This restaurants Taco Tuesday is a good one & I plan to return. During happy hour time, the Cantina does get filled up quickly, so either go early like I did or a bit later if wanting to avoid the crowd, otherwise enjoy the lively times!

Exactly like I I had hope this Mexican restaurant would be. Lots of colors, great, fast service,…read moreand delicious food. Our server was fast and efficient. We got our food in less than 15 minutes and enjoyed our meal very much.
