Blue Agave

We stopped here to get late lunch around 3pm in the middle of our trip. We were started off with free chips and salsa. We ordered the street tacos and they were tasty. The mix fajitas was served on a sizzling plate and the meat was well seasoned, tender and juicy. The portions were generous. The tacos and fajitas were shared among 3 adults and we still had extra food to go. They have a great selection of kids’ meals and our kids enjoyed their cheese quesadilla and mac and cheese which both came with fries. Service was great; our server (I’m sorry we didn’t get your name) was very attentive. Of note, they serve drinks as it is a bar but noise level was good as it was not loud. Like others have mentioned, it is a small restaurant with small seating area which easily gets packed. Bathroom was clean which is important especially for people stopping here on a trip. Great value for money and would recommend and eat here again!

We got the birria tacos and they were "okay". They weren't horrible, they were just kind of bland I guess. The chips were really good. We were in there for a while it seemed compared to other people. I think our waitress forgot about us for a while, it took about 25 minutes to get our order taken. But anyways we were in and out within an hour and a half. Would probably go back and try something else.

Tried this restaurant out today. I've heard very good things but upon arriving I noticed the parking lot was very small and compact. There is a smaller parking lot across the street I don't know if it belongs to them but there is a bridge to help you cross. Although, on the way back it's very steep and if you have elderly parents it'll be hard for them to cross unless you want to walk in the road on Treadaway which is very busy. Upon entering I noticed this restaurant was very very small. I don't know if they have a second seating section but they sat my party right by the bathrooms. I ordered the enchilada and taco plate which I did not finish. It wasn't the best flavor on any of it. My fiance liked the ceviche. My children got the fajita plate that they didn't finish either which weren't that great. All in all the food just wasn't that great. Now the rice and chips and salsa were on point though!!!! They do have that down! I tried to order Dr. Pepper and they did not have it. The service was good and our waitress was really nice but me and my family won't be returning.

We had a very pleasant experience for our group of 15. Our order was taken quickly by Brittany who got it all right, and promptly delivered! The food was nicely decorated and tasty. It could have been a bit hotter but that’s just my preference. The vibe was chill even though it was busy. Brittany provided exceptional service and made our stay comfy. Would definitely return if we are even in Snyder again! If you are, go check them out!

This place was absolutely jumping, with a line out the door when we showed up. We managed to get seated, get our order and eat, and have the check paid all in under an hour!! I was absolutely shocked at how quick they were! And the food was delicious 😋 my burrito was very very yummy. If I'm ever back in the area, I will definitely come back!

Edited review, as I am unable to post a second review of this restaurant. We decided to give them a second shot tonight and ended up leaving within 10 mins of our food being served. I ordered the burrito california with steak which came out cold. I had no idea if that food inside had been cooked this morning or yesterday. My sister in laws order was wrong, and when brought back it looks like the jalapeño were just picked out of the nachos. My husband's chimichanga was hot, because that has to be fried. I would give this place 0 stars if I could. Some people may get good service here, but not us. I don't know where all these 5 star reviews come from, maybe staff or friends. I'd eat here at your own risk. 1st review: We decided to try Blue Agave tonight. We have heard all these rave reviews about the food and service. We went in and placed a to-go order at the bar for the steak nachos and chroizo queso. They were busy, but not too busy. The restaurant feels crowded and the tables are close to each other. We waited 40 mins for our food. The girl that rang us up barely acknowledged us. Other servers did ask if we were waiting on a to-go order. I felt like they didn't really care about a to-go order customer. When our order came out the girl just said "here" and thrusted the bag in my hands. At home, we found our order was not hot, like it had been sitting in the back for awhile. We had to reheat everything. We will not be trying this place again. Not sure what the rave is about, maybe it's nice to eat there if you don't mind feeling crowded.

This restaurant is absolutely incredible! The chips and salsa set the tone of the amazing flavors to come. The mixed fajitas are delicious and perfectly cooked and seasoned. The jalapeño torados are a great addition to the meal, adding some extra heat to the mix. We'll be back for sure!

If your trying to decide where to eat in this area you can stop your search, this is definitely the place. Great food and excellent service, the food came out hot, fast, and full of flavor. I recommend both the Quesabirria and the Charro beans......if im ever back in this area I will 100% eat here again.

True family atmosphere. Consistent good service with a couple of stand out wait staff. Excellent food,? Love, love the street tacos and chile relleno but not a fan of the new Avocado salad. Miss the bacon and the seasoning is not as good.

Military discount! A little loud. Ordered 2 enchiladas 1 taco, all beef and fajita chicken chimichanga. All very good! Wife said "best chimichanga in years!" Eat here!

Problems with food, with prices, and with service. FOOD: I felt sick right after, my wife felt sick during the night. PRICES: $11 margarita that tasked like 7-Up syrup. Awful. SERVER: We cleared a coupon for a free entree with our server before ordering, then she said no after the meal. Manager too said "you needed to get soft drinks for this" when the coupon said "drinks." So they made us buy soft drinks as we were leaving.

The Food is fantastic and service is fast and polite, but this location is terrible, it's parking lot and dining area are both awfully small, went here and was sat at the bar because there were no tables available. Interior is too small and looks dirty compared to other locations from chain. Food is the best Mexican food in town, I hope they remodel or move because I would rather drive to tuscola to the nice location than eat here again.

Usually when you go to a Mexican restaurant and get chips and salsa on the house, chips aren't homemade and salsa is too spicy to enjoy much of. Not this place. I could have eaten them as my meal. Also splurge a little get the queso, it is well worth it. 10/10 on all food. We got the quesabirria (quesadillas made with birria meat), the mixed fajitas, sopapillas, and of course chips and queso. The service is amazing! The waitress was attentive and so sweet. It's a nice place to come get a fantastic meal and drinks. Watermelon marg is well worth the trip itself.

We were waited on right away by a sweet waitress. I ordered chicken flautas and my husband had chicken anchiladas. They were hot and delicious. The place was busy, so it was a little noisy. We will definitely go back again.

Stopped in around 6pm on a Wednesday. The place was busy but I was able to get a seat at the bar right away. Love the chips and salsa at the table. Nice bit of heat in the salsa and the puffy chips had good cruch and flavor. The house margarita on the rocks was huge. It was tasty but a little on the sweet side for my tastes. They have other varieties to try though so perhaps one of them will be more to my palate. The fajitas were well seasoned and had nice charred bits on the meat and veggies. The vibe was friendly and service was good even though they were packed. As luck would have it, someone from work brought in tacos for lunch the next day. Also very good. Will definitely stop back the next chance I get.

very good restaurant with lots of great employees The highlights are going to be their fajitas, enchiladas, and most importantly: their birria tacos

Blue Agave is a Mexican/Tex-Mex restaurant located on Treadway just down from Hendrick Medical Center. Atmosphere: A much beleaguered location with several openings and closures in the last 10 years, the building is very much a diner style venue. 1 Star Service: Service was great. Sat us right down and our waitress was very attentive to us the whole time we were there. Very polite and very quick service. 2 Stars Food: We were given chips and salsa to start off with. The salsa was good with a nice kick to it. The chips were fine, (and I don't discount for their choice) just not my favorite style of chips. We also ordered the Queso with steak. Quite good. They serve some flour tortillas with it as well which were also good and seemed fresh. My wife ordered the Quesabirria (a take on Birria tacos but in quesadilla form) and it was massive! Huge portion. Definitely enough to feed two people. They had good flavor and the Birria sauce was decent. I ordered the fajita chicken chimichangas. Classic Tex-Mex style chimis usually come with rice, beans, meat and cheese and then are fried golden brown and topped with queso or some form of red sauce. What I got was not a chimichanga, at least not what I have ever eaten, and it is one of my favorite dishes that I order at many places. I've had them stuffed with grilled onions and peppers (my fave) as well as the classic mix mentioned above and several things in between. What I received were two smallish "wet burritos." Each were stuffed with grilled fajita style chicken and .......... that's it. Nothing else. No cheese, no beans, no rice. Just grilled chicken in a tortilla. And then it was grilled (like on a Blackstone) instead of fried (this is easily noticeable from my pics.) and covered with queso (which was good). With that being said, the chicken was fantastic on flavor. I will not discount the taste. Very good, but man, I was sure wanting for more, and longing for that crisp golden fried tortilla. Lastly, the rice was good and my refried beans were cold (as in burr.) The wife's charro beans did not suffer the same fate and were very good and hot. 0.5 Stars Overall: Let's just get this out of the way first. Nothing we had tasted bad. In fact it was all very good. The chips are a personal preference and the Birria sauce was just ok. The Birria meat was good. The chicken in the "chimi" was also very tasty. I will definitely come back to try something else. But I'll most certainly steer away from the chimichangas. I'd be remiss if I didn't come back and at least try the enchiladas and tacos. I rounded up to 4 stars but overall, it's a 3.5 star on this visit with the cold beans and disappointing chimi.

In town for work and stumbled across this gem. The service was acceptable, but the food is worth returning for. We had the queso with steak, chicken quesadillas, and quesabirria. The steak queso was good, very cheesy, but the quesabirria was the star of the show. Tender, savory, perfectly crispy tortillas. Nice meal!

Service was super attentive. Chips were unique and light. Salsa fantastic and a little spicy. California burrito was great and crunchy taco VERY good. Chicken enchiladas with green sauce were excellent. Rice and beans very flavorful. Would like to try everything on the menu.

Everything I've had from here has been really good . The carnitas and the Mexican burritos were the best I've had around Abilene...

I ordered 3 of the racheros none of them came with questions. When I called and spoke to manager she said she would give me a free questionnaire next time. Well there won't be a next time.​

This place is always full because it's got great Mexican and Tex/mex food at fair prices. Service is quick and friendly. The place can get a little loud and warm but that's just due to it usually being completely full. Still easy to enjoy good conversation with your table over good food and margs

Awesome local Mexican food place. Clean, looks like it's been recently updated inside and out. Restaurant and bar. Service was friendly and efficient. Salsa is one of my favorites. Not bland like a lot of places. Our whole party liked our food. I had the avocado salad. I ordered it with chicken but they sent steak instead. It was delicious. There were even pieces of bacon on it. The meat is on top of shredded lettuce and finely chopped tomatoes not the huge chunks of lettuce and tomatoes you often get with a salad. I prefer this. Plus they are generous with the avocados and limes. We definitely moved this place to being one of our local favorites.

We went to Blue Agave today and it was delicious! Great service, lively atmosphere, and affordable.

this is my favorite restaurant that i never have any issues with. tonight i received the worst service. i ordered beef fajitas and typically they come with 3 corn tortillas. i only received 2 so i let my waiter know. she apologized and no big deal right? well no, because then after 5 minutes she comes back and hands me 3 old, hard flour tortillas. i asked her if i could get the corn and showed her those. another 5 minutes pass and she finally comes back with a corn tortilla. and the. rest of my food was cold. ruined my entire appetite. don't think i'll be going back. left a really bad taste in my mouth.

Starters- chips and salsa were phenomenal, chips definitely made in house and the sales was really good. The queso with steak was really really good and was served with some tortillas that were amazing aswell Meals- 10/10 amazing awesome great, no other way to put it

By far the best Mexican/Tex-Mex in town. Servers are very attentive and friendly. Overall the place could use some updating, including painting over the BBQ written on the roof. But don't let looks fool you - the food and service are wonderful.

The food and people here are always great! Very generous portions that we usually order our own but end up taking half home for later! The steak or chicken chimichangas are perfectly crispy and amazing and the sweet tea is very good too! If you're less hungry the quesabirria are a great choice!

We came to eat here for dinner on 9/2/25 and two out of the four people in our party got food poisoning. They were sick all night/morning. The service was good, the atmosphere was fun, but the food made us sick and that's unacceptable. Do not come here for the food if you want to risk getting sick.

Just had a dinner celebration @ Blue Agave in Abilene with 20 people.They were very quick to seat us, never let our drinks get low & excellent service. Treat yourself & go there next time you eat out!!Food was spot on Delicious!!!

Our stop for dinner here on our roadtrip did not disappoint! Super kind staff, a menu with usual Tex Mex faves but I was so pleased they had a keto / low carb friendly option with the avocado salad-- generous portions and the food came out fast! After sparing carbs at dinner, I chomped on a sopapilla for dessert- it was like a beignet-- I brought my fam including a 10yo and 3yo we all loved this place!

My husband and I decided on dinner at Blue Agave, we both wanted Mexican food. We were set in the back room, temperature was perfect and had some music on the tv. my husband had the flautas plate and I decided on Birria plate (4 tacos). Our waitress, Reagan, was very studious! She had our drink order immediately after being seated, brought chips and salsa to the table, took our orders and had our food on the table within minutes. Both of our meals were so good, and piping hot. The salsa was so good, had good flavor and a bit chunky. No complaints here, we both left full and I carried my left overs out for tomorrow. Thank you Reagan for a very pleasant dining experience:) No pictures tonight.... I forgot!

Service wasn't bad, but my husband and I both immediately got sick after throwing up etc, and we both had two completely different meals. Food was cold, and cheese wasn't melted on either of our foods. Honestly just not great over all. I would not recommend at all. The ambiance wasn't bad, other than the music was loud af. My husband and I were screaming it felt like at each other to hear anything.

Super friendly staff and the food is amazing! Probably the best Mexican food I've had since moving back to TX. Wouldn't be an accurate review without mentioning the margaritas, which were perfect. I will definitely be returning.

Blue Agave is some of the best Mexican food in Abilene. Everything is always on point. Best chips and hot sauce in Abilene. They have some of the best Mexican seafood dishes around. The Michalada's are cold, dressed, and refreshing. Service is quick and they check on you regularly. The food is hot and fresh with generous portions. It's always packed at lunch so go early to snag a table or after 1:15 to miss the crowds.

Amazing! Hands down the best Mexican i have ever eaten, best chips and salsa , everybody thing we got was so great!

Great authentic Mexican food Service was good and great environment just a little crowded

Really good food!!!! One of Abilenes best in my opinion. Chips and Salsa is spot on. Queso is great! Personally, my favorite plate is the Pollo Plancha! Great service! And to top it off, they have my favorite beverages, Coca Cola Zero! I just wish they carried more glass bottle Fanta flavors or Barrilitos, giving more options for my kids. You won't go wrong choosing this place to eat.

Great food and amazing fast service. Drinks were on point. Our server was polite and friendly. Salsa was a little mild for our tastes but still good. The entrees our group chose were all hits. The building doesn't showcase the amazing food going on inside. We will definitely return when in the area.

Beef fajitas were tough. I cannot tell you much about the flavor because I spent time trying to pull them apart. Service was average. Ambience was small and loud - not so much in a negative way - you just need to be prepared for that atmosphere

Yikes!! I really want to eat here but the heath code violations. I'm not sure I can get past that. 3 stars just so the review shows up.

Their queso is hands down the best! It can get a little crowded inside so I usually just get my food to go.

Devided to try it after seeing the reviews and a recommendation. Definitely wasn't disappointed. I had the chilli relleno, which was different from what im used to, but was really good. Beans and and rice had alot of flavor. Wife had a chicken quesadilla they she enjoyed. Chips and salsa were different and had a little heat and alot of flavor. Food came out quick and service was really good. If you want some good Mexican food, give it a shot.

Service and Ambience I strongly dislike writing "bad" reviews. However, Blue Agave on Treadway went the extra mile on bad service and food quality. One other customer and my party of three were at the restaurant at 10:05 a.m. when Blue Agave opened their doors. There were at least six workers at the bar, having their breakfast or lunch. It took 10 minutes for someone came to our table for our drinks. The traditional, regional, northern Mexican music was loud and gave the impression that more than a restaurant, this place was a Cantina. Food Avoid the chips and salsa; they will make you frown, and unnecessary wrinkles will appear on your face. We ordered Carne Asada and a Chile relleno with cheese. The beef was chewy and flavorless (It felt like I was eating a rubber band). I requested my beans and rice on the side (separate from the meat), but my request was ignored. The Chile Relleno was covered with a tasteless- depressing tomato sauce that yelled to us: "Send me back to my can!". I will try this place again and see if it was only a bad day, but I am not excited about Blue Agave.

The place was a very down home Mexican restaurant. Great service. Chips and salsa was fantastic. The food came very fast and was the best Mexican food I've had in west Texas . I will call this place our New Mexican home for the best in Abilene.

Are here at the recommendation of a friend and it did not disappoint! We had the chile relleno and the quesabirria, and will prob be getting them the next time. The staff were attentive and friendly folks and even tho the place was busy, we did not have to wait a ridiculous amount of time for our food which was awesome. It's a small place but have decent seating and not overcrowded. We've been back here twice after the initial visit already so I would def recommend!

I can't even begin to explain how much this place has surpassed my expectations. It's been over 2 years of trying to find places that feel like my home place. I can truly say this is one of the places I will be coming back for. The flavors were amazing. The service was extremely fast and the food came out so quick. The environment is very welcoming and the music is not too loud either but I love it so no complaints. 10/10

Tried the newest addition to Abilene's restaurants The salsa was some of the best I've ever had and the chips were freshly made. Great portion sizes for the prices. Queso was thick and cheesy! Rice was cooked perfectly! Definitely a place I'll come back to. Attentive and friendly service.

Service is ok but food is so flavorful! It's not a fancy place but great for lunch with friends! We love the beef fajitas, carne assada and shrimp tacos.

Street tacos were super tasty. Friendly and fast service!! I went during early afternoon and was not super crowded and was able to enjoy my food without having to listen to multiple conversations from other folks. Visiting from Hawaii so I might have to come back before I leave.

Oh my God!! Love this place!! Love the Nuevo Mexico cuisine. If you decide to have a margarita, do not attempt to drive! The salsa is delicious good flavor with the heat delayed. The chips are delicious. I had the rellenos and enchiladas. Absolutely delicious. Great atmosphere. Prices are very reasonable considering the portions. The staff is friendly and efficient. Definitely going eat there again.

Best TexMex I've had in months. I was beginning to think that traditional TexMex was dead in Texas. This is a traditional family run TexMex restaurant. No frills; just great food served quickly.

This is a true hidden gem! Service is amazing and food is consistently the best Mexican food in Abilene. The habanero rice is a must order if you like it a little spicy. The drinks from the bar are consistent and on point! Rocky the owner is amazing and making sure you have a great time! Would highly recommend!

I've been here a couple of times before and never had the experience I had today. the food was AMAZING, as usual! However, there was a large woman who I had never seen before as our waitress and as soon as I told her I wanted a burrito, she just takes my menu from my hands and walks away as I was getting ready to order queso as an appetizer. I have never had this happen before and it made me so angry that I couldn't even finish my meal because all I was thinking about was how ignorant and rude the waitress was for doing that. THEN she brings me a warm beer with a bunch of salt on the rim of the glass, when I wanted a COLD beer without a half pound of salt on the glass. The whole experience was just weird and unexpected for this place and I honestly don't know if I'll be back after today.

The queso flamenco with steak is a meal in it self and delicious to share with corn and flour tortillas. The habanero rice is superb and the beans taste homemade.

Normally I like Mexican food In generally but this place I will put up against any one I have eaten at in the last year.

Loved the food and the drink drinks. The ambience was lacking, but honestly, the food made up for it.
