15 Underrated Restaurants to Try Around Atlanta

"Agave in Cabbagetown may be one of those restaurants where you question why it’s been so long since your last visit. While it used to be one of the hottest reservations in town, the nearly 25-year-old restaurant has settled into a steady service rhythm of regulars, couples on dates, and groups celebrating special occasions looking to indulge in Southwestern fare and margaritas. The restaurant is eclectic and charming serving dishes like veal, chorizo, and Hatch green chile meatballs and ranchero chicken taquitos to red pepper salmon and racks of lamb in a New Mexico guajillo red chile sauce. A vegetarian menu is also available. And order the Smoking Hot or spicy jalapeno margarita." - Beth McKibben

"Dine on Southwestern Cuisine and Delicious Margaritas Wedged between former cotton mills in the neighborhood of Cabbagetown, Agave is an Atlanta favorite for its eclectic Southwestern cuisine. The posole soup and spicy tequila anejo shrimp with grits put a Southern spin on Southwestern classics. Most of the dishes come in gluten-free varieties. Try the classic margaritas or go funky with mango or passionfruit varieties."

My wife and I went to agave, we had a good time and enjoyable meal. I had the Wagyu burger, my wife had the lamb chops. We both shared the scrimp and lobster enchiladas. Everything was good and flavorful. Shoutout our waitress heather.

A true GEM of Atlanta. My family & I have been here at least 20 times in the last 2 years. We have NEVER been disappointed. ALWAYS amazing service, food & atmosphere. 10/10 recommend to any & everyone. From in town or out— this is an ALL TIME top 5 recommendation of mine.

Came here for my birthday dinner with my husband. They offer a free valet parking lot with tips encouraged. The valet guy and everyone in the restaurant was very kind and even the manager was walking around and checking on people. I was not a huge fan of the location or the Atmosphere, it was a tad cold but the food and service make up for all of that. We ordered the scallops, tostitos, and surf and turf. The chips and sauce was good and fresh. The others plates were tasty. I was not a fan of the grits with the scallops and the collards greens were a but sweet for me but I loved the scallops.

I dined at the Agave on NYE 2024. Called ahead and said they were booked but maybe can grab a seat at the bar if lucky. Well we got lucky and had the BEST meal ever ! The bartender, Lisa, who should own the restaurant, waited on us - another luck for us! She has been working at Agave for over 20 years, which says a LOT. The margaritas were better than Texas , yes hard to even say. The menu has a wonderful variety and hard to choose. The fish was outstanding with a side of fried lobster. The macaroni and cheese was creamy and had a lot of flavor. Although the tables around us sat empty for over 2 hours, I guess Agave has enough business to not care about their customers. They could certainly serve more and not let empty tables sit because of no show reservations. But, the experience and friendly fun staff is a 6 stars if that was a choice! We will hurry back especially if the Texas Longhorns make it to Atlanta , once again.

HEATHER WAS GREAT!!! It was my birthday and she was so sweet, welcoming, gave recommendations, and made sure my drinks and food came out in a timely manner. She was always was aware of my table and made sure She didn’t forget us. There was never a time where we felt like we were waiting for the food and there was never a time where we felt like Heather never came and checked up on us. Great customer service! She had a beautiful personality! will recommend this place.

I had a good experience at Agave. They have complimentary valet parking. The service was great and the food was good. They bring out chips and salsa. The stuffed trout was ok, I want to come back and try other items. They have a bar and 2 sides to the restaurant.

Favorite restaurant in Atlanta for the last decade+. On a recent visit owners went out of their way to correct a minor issue and made me feel very cared for. Gave me a bonus scallop dish - soooo good.

The food and service is always great! I’ve came for my birthday and Mother’s Day, and enjoyed it both times. Agave is welcoming, cozy, and chill vibes. Great for a girls night, date, or family meal.
