    I was not impressed, mostly due to pricing and compared to my local Mexican restaurant Corn soup - flavor was good, but I would have enjoyed it more if it was a smooth soup instead of a grainy soup Chicken quesadilla- I didn't want onions but did want the peppers. However, they could not accommodate that. You either got neither or both. Makes me wonder about the freshness of the ingredients. Steak and shrimp fajitas- flavor ok, but not worth the price. No beans or rice come with it. Chips and salsa - not a freebe - flavor is good Frozen Strawberry Fresca - best thing about the meal. Good size drink.

    I like the atmosphere. Our waiter was very helpful. But the value for the money was just not there. Twenty five + dollars for two tacos with undercoooked rice and cold black beans. No thanks

    We had a high quality experience at Agave Lewes. Greeter welcomed us warmly. We proceeded to the bar for a drink prior to being seated. That segment of the night was my favorite. Bartender was warm and kind and knowledgeable about the different margaritas and ingredients. Atmosphere at the bar is second to none! Dinner was also a positive experience- apps and food were spaced out appropriately- food was hot and fresh. What really struck me was the excellent attentiveness shown by Kira, our server. We sat at a table that was nicely tucked away, but it could have been ignored- but that didn’t happen as Kira checked in with us at ideal intervals . I appreciated that!! We will be back very soon!!

    Service was great . Food was terrible . Having to pay for salsa and chips is ridiculous . The empanadas were soggy and tasteless . All our entrees were underwhelming .

    Classic Mexican ambiance and taste. Staff was vivacious and quality of food and drink was better than expected. Will become a regular go-to restaurant here in Lewes, DE.

    We love Agave, especially at the Lewes location. It has much more authentic charm and coziness. The food was wonderful with creative drinks. We’ll be back all the time!

    Compared to the Rehoboth restaurant, this experience was terrible. The service was terrible. The drinks did not come out with the food. The food tasted different, and not as good. I love agave but this experience was really disappointing.

    Lewes Agave is always a pleasant place for a meal. The jalapeno poppers are always a favorite.
