Blue Agave Mexican Grill & Bar — Restaurant in Shelbyville

people who have negative left reviews should take into consideration Agave have only been open less than a week. not totally sure why they aren’t serving alcohol yet but it could be a lot of reasons due to licensing and unfortunately one aspect of opening a business- sometimes things just go wrong and it’s out of your hands. if you really can’t stand to enjoy dinner without a margarita i guess you might have to wait or head elsewhere. if you care more about size/value and quality food, check it out! their menu is huge and includes a nice vegetarian section should you want it. the inside of the building looks nice and the outside gathering area located next to the river is totally gorgeous. i chose to wait 20 minutes enjoying the weather outside with the views.

the portion size was HUGE compared to other local places (cholula is one of my favorites!) at $17.00 versus paying $21-26 per plate for less at other places. i’m not a fan of the corn and lima beans ?? added to the arroz con pollo i hope they might consider removing them, lol. other than that i think the meal was pretty good for the price and value. i think front of house needs stronger management to keep orders moving quickly and address issues with slow service but i bet they’ll get the hang of things. my server made a mistake but immediately corrected it and i noticed someone who looks like an owner or manager up front today directing guests and staff. i say give them a chance! ☺️ thanks for a...

Update: Our server today was great. Food was delicious. Really liked their guac. We just got the regular not the special tableside made.

They've only recently opened, so I'm going to hope that they work out the kinks. The food was really good. They have a lot on the menu. Their margaritas are good sized and they definitely didn't skimp on the tequila.

They didn't really have anything on the menu that sets them apart from the others, but the food was quality and tasty.

My biggest issue was the service. There seemed to be a large enough staff, and other tables seemed to be getting good service. Our server was slow, forgetful, and not very attentive to us. This is the area they HAVE to nail it. I absolutely love the facility and location. I really want them to be succussful and hopefully even bring back the brewery. They're going to have to work on the...

We have always ordered carry out, but it’s on point every time! They are always super quick with getting it ready & the food is always great! I’m a vegetarian so I tend to have a harder time ordering, but they always make sure it’s right. If there’s ever been a mistake they fix it right then without any issue. They have claw machines you can play while you wait which is something we always look forward to doing. It’s fun coming back with little ducks or goodies for my kids & I always be sure to leave the restaurant one of our ducks as well 🙂 The restaurant even gave us these super tiny ducks to give our kids when we told them our kids would love them! They’re just so nice and the restaurant has a great vibe! My favorite place to get Mexican food and I try to get it at least once a month! The BEST cheese dip! Get the cheese...
