Agavos Cocina and Tequila: Reviews & Ratings

Definitely has a college bar type feeling, so don't expect upscale ambiance. Service was good and attentive and we never had to hunt down wait staff. Chips and salsa are average. I got the burger (I know, weird choice) and my husband got the Cameron a la diabla. The burger patty was delicious, though I could have done without everything else. Shrimp was delicious and spicy. Margarita was definitely not the best in Memphis. The mix they use is okay, just very average for the price.

Listen! I looked at the reviews before visiting and I had very low expectations. When I pulled up it didn't look that cute and it was a few people just hanging out in front by the cars. I was skeptical about going in. I can't lie this place didn't look that good but surprisingly I was very pleased with my service and my food. My food was a hit and very flavorful. I ordered tacos and some quest dip. I also ordered the margarita flight and it was just enough to drink. I will definitely visit again.

I was headed home on a Friday afternoon and decided to stop by. I'd seen the marg flight on social media a while back and figured I'd give it a try. First and foremost: Agavos has a particular vibe. You'll notice when you walk in that there is a rule posted for a rule posted for two more rules posted. It was chill when I went (a party seated outside used their truck to play music, but it wasn't a big deal), so that was appreciated. I started with the Happy Flight and it wasn't bad. It could've had a bit more flavor, but they seemed strong enough. Because it's a flight of frozen drinks, you'll have to drink them fairly quickly to avoid too much melting. I ordered the grilled chicken burrito (which was great) and washed it down with a house raspberry margarita. My personal experience on this day wasn't bad, but I implore you to read other reviews and decide if it's a place for you.

I enjoyed visiting here! The food was good and the drinks was awesome as well. It was my sister in law birthday, so the manager gave her a free shot when we purchased a round for the table. The bacon wrapped shrimp was my personal favorite, along with the Happy Flights . My husband had Chicken Quesadillas, he didn't seem to happy with them . My sister-in-law law enjoy the skillet entree she had though. I gave 4 stars only because The place is kind of small on the inside and not in the safest location but they did have a security person on site (but he seemed weird himself) but I will definitely go back just not late night or alone, they also play rap music for the younger crowd I guess but I was told you can request music too . Oh and be sure to get two copies of your receipt because you have to turn One in to exit the restaurant, I'm not sure why but we did ....
