Formally the location of the beloved restaurant Spagio, the entire space has been rethought into a taco and tequila restaurant. The food selections here are handcrafted and well-made. The entire space is conducive to group gatherings, or intimate conversations. I think it makes a pretty good option for a date night, particularly because after you finish dinner, there are some other things that you can do here on the Grandview Avenue strip. For example: attend a movie, pour custom scented candles, enjoy a cup of coffee or tea and conversation, have a sweet treat of ice cream at one of several vendor locations, or retire to another bar for cocktails. This is a great entertainment district and Agave & Rye adds to the roster of great places from which to choose.

We love visiting Agave & Rye at the Cincinnati locations, but we were so disappointed when visiting…read morethe Grandview location. We came on a Saturday night with a reservation for a birthday. They were understaffed. It looked like they had 4 servers and 1 bartender. We waited about 15 minutes for our server to come over, so we ordered right away wondering if service would be slow. When the food got here it was cold, and our drinks weren't ready until the meal was half way through. I always order the Rooster, the Happy Meal, and the Crown Jewel. The mac n cheese on both tacos had solidified since it was not hot/warm. I took one bite and figured we could warm them up at home (fearing it would be another long wait if asked for them to be heated) so we waited another 15 minutes until we saw our server and asked for to go boxes and the check. After we paid and she brought the boxes she acknowledged the birthday as we were standing up to leave and got a tiramisu cake to go. There is lots of seating, a good bar area, and follows the same punk/hip-hop eccentric interior design as the other locations

Service was impressively quick. I started with the "Hot & Juicy" cocktail--excellent--and ended up ordering a second after dinner. The salsa roja had a nice kick and came with plenty of chips (easily enough for two). I made the rookie mistake of ordering two tacos--they're huge. One would have been plenty. The "Swipe Right" was the standout; the "Gangsta" was good, though the beef could've been cut into smaller, more manageable pieces. Overall, a very solid meal. Total with tip: about $70.

The restaurant is creative and fun to look at it, you'll notice something different at every glance, the nose level is medium to high. All in all I enjoyed it and would go back if for some reason I have to be in Columbus again.

Again I would expect this even more of the food and experience wasn't so overpriced. Salsas and guacamole were incredibly bland. Tacos also seemed to be lacking in any flavor (except the yoda).

Won't be back, would definitely recommend a few of the local restaurants that are right around the corner.

Called to let them know I did not receive my salsa with my chips and they told me to come in the next day and they would take care of it, however, even with me showing them my receipt, they gave me the incorrect item.... Which was chipotle ranch dip!?!? Again I have to call them... go back out into the cold only to get home and find out they once again gave me chipotle ranch dip, instead of salsa!!!!! People get it together!!! There is NO excuse for messing up three times in a row! Basically, I've had it with this place as they're completely incompetent of even taking an order correctly.

This is one of the best restaurants in Dayton, and one of the first places we now bring visitors. Highly recommend.

My very picky husband ate every bite of everything placed in front of him. He's like Mikey from Life cereal, if he likes it, pay attention. :D Well, he loved it. The valet parking makes it so easy, just drop off your car & no worrying about finding a decent, safe place to park, plus no walking in the cold/snow/rain/darkness. The valets were very personable and professional. The interior of the restaurant is beautifully designed. They have poured a great deal of planning, design and money into the decor and it shows. The servers were all exceptional. The hostess was very pleasant and talked to us excitedly about the musical we saw. Our server was friendly, efficient and accurate. She checked in on us regularly, kept our drinks filled, and was so good at her job. Manager came by the table to ensure we were having a good experience. I had the delicious carne asada which was perfectly charred on the outside and made even better by the crunchy bits of flaky salt. My husband had the enchiladas verde, and ate every bite. We had their incredible house made chips and salsa of the day, which was quite spicy, and garlicky and a bit smoky. I found myself wishing there was a tamale option on the menu because I bet they'd be really good with that house made masa. Our cocktails were good. The basque cheesecake was out of this world, and even the coffee was extra good. All the way home my husband commented on how great the meal was and what a good experience we had at Sueno. I'm so glad we finally made it there! Thank you to everyone who made our evening out special.

At some point her food was set at the end of the bar, she had to get it herself. No one even noticed she took it. My sister ordered the apple brie grilled cheese. It was good while it was hot, but as it cooled down it became inedible. The onions became soggy and congealed together. I ordered the Cuban sandwich. Overall, I thought it was good but nothing fancy. The fries were cold and hard. This was a disappointing experience overall but I was sorely disappointed in how poor the service was and how annoyed the bartenders seemed to be.

For mains, Comune features mushroom-forward heavy hitters like the grilled trumpet mushrooms with savoy cabbage and shallots, the walnut-maitake bolognese, and the lion's mane mushroom frites. The popular crispy rice with kimchi offers a tasty alternative, and like many dishes here, it's gluten-free. Complementing the food is a short, well-curated wine list.
