Sadly, no guacamole this time :( The service was incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the bartender was fantastic I'd definitely come back just to see him again!

Went for New Year's Eve (had a 6:30 reservation). We ordered appetizers (which were good), but the…read morechips that came were basically crumbs (not big enough to scoop the salsa). We waited patiently for about 30 minutes for a server to come, but no luck. Finally after an hour someone came to check on us and we ordered another set of appetizers (as we were told the kitchen was backed up). Just when we though the wait was over (around 7:45) the meals they brought us were for another table; our meal didn't arrive until after 8:30 (2 hours after our reservation and about 1.5 hours after ordering). The food was luke warm and mediocre at best. If they didn't comp our appetizers (a nice touch given the disaster of events); this would have received 1 star.

We went to Agave tonight for dinner and drinks before a show, and honestly, this place has a lot of…read morepotential. The atmosphere was really enjoyable -- the space has a great vibe, the drinks were well made, and overall it feels like somewhere that could become a favorite spot downtown. The food was decent as well, though not especially memorable. Unfortunately, the service completely overshadowed the positives. From the moment we walked in, we felt more like an inconvenience than welcomed guests. The host greeted us while remaining seated at the bar and simply told us to "sit anywhere," which immediately set an odd tone. When I asked for paper menus, I was told they only use QR codes. Normally that wouldn't be a huge issue, but the menu was around 15 pages long with tiny font, making it frustrating to navigate on a phone. Once our food arrived, we essentially never saw our server again. No check-ins, no refill offers, no asking if we wanted another round of drinks -- nothing. Meanwhile, staff members were gathered at the bar loudly talking among themselves and openly complaining about being there, which was uncomfortable to listen to as customers trying to enjoy a night out. Eventually, we had to walk up to the front bar ourselves just to pay our bill. That was the most disappointing part because the restaurant truly has the foundation to be excellent. The ambiance and drinks are already there, but hospitality matters just as much as the food. A little attentiveness and genuine customer service would have completely changed the experience. We absolutely would have ordered more drinks and likely stayed longer if anyone had checked on us. Hopefully management takes service more seriously, because this place could be great with the right staff culture and attention to guests.

There is a small parking lot out front and some additional parking behind the backyard patio. The patio at Radio Bar is gorgeous. It feels like you're in your bestie's backyard except with exceptional cocktails and an array of food options. During my visit, I tried Fair Play, a vodka-based cocktail with season shrub, and the Garden Margarita. Both were excellent, well balanced, and affordable. Most of the cocktails are between $11 to $13. There are some appetizers that are perfect for sharing along with more substantial meals. One of my favorite things about Radio Bar is that they are dog friendly. So, bring your well-behaved pups to enjoy the summer sunshine on the patio with you too. During my visit there were three cute dogs enjoying the afternoon with their humans. There is a gate on the side of the building and one at the back of the lot where you can bring you pup into the yard without having to go through the bar. I also noticed that servers provided the dogs with water bowls.

We arrived around 5:30pm and left around 8. When we arrived we immediately felt warm and cozy. The vibes are absolutely immaculate! There are plants and cute decor everywhere and the lighting is really soothing. We were shown to a table in the back that was more private and it really felt like we had our own little garden that we were hanging out in. The server was very nice and friendly. Both she and the other server or bartender were friendly and attentive. We ordered a bunch of drinks throughout the night. I had two pinky promises because I don't drink and they were absolutely delicious. They have some great mocktail options to choose from! We also got the hummus board and the bites board and they were fantastic! The hummus board had two rotating hummus options - one was a normal hummus and the other was a beet hummus. The pita chips seemed freshly made and were AMAZING. I wish I could take a bag to go with me! The bites board was also amazing and had some delicious cheeses. We asked to have the meats replaced with other things to make it vegetarian and it was fantastic. They should add it as a menu item, we loved every bit of it! It didn't feel like it had substitutions at all. We loved every second of our time there and kept saying how we wished it was local to us. This place is an absolute gem and I hope it gets more traction because of how wonderful it is. If I ever visit Spokane again I will absolutely be back here!
