The BEST Mexican food in Pickens and Easley! Clean bathrooms/restaurant. Excellent service. Fresh and flavorful food with a wide variety of choices. Also highly recommend the desserts.

I ate here for the first time today and was highly impressed. The skinny margaritas had fresh squeezed juice in them and tasted great and not too sweet. The shrimp ceviche was really fresh and had the perfect amount of balance. The Mexican guac was fantastic and probably our favorite thing overall. We will definitely be back to try more.

This was the second time I’ve eaten at El Agave. I took my daughter and a granddaughter to dinner. They both agreed with me. This is a fantastic place to get Mexican food. Not only does the food taste wonderful, but it is beautifully plated. I especially wanted my girls to sample a desert. We each ordered a different item, and after the first bite, each said it was the best they had ever tasted. My granddaughter called her husband to tell him about El Agave. “They have the same thing we usually get at the other place and it’s two dollars cheaper,” I heard her say. The mixed drinks are well made (you can taste the main ingredient). You owe it to yourself to check El Agave out.

My girlfriend and I stopped by after a pretty epic hike. She usually tasks me with finding a restaurant on the way back home and wants to know the reviews. We came across a review left by the insufferable Donna. Donna criticized the wonderful staff of El Agave for “not being able to speak English.” Well, after reading Donna’s review, I was astounded as she couldn’t have been more wrong. Donna, I hope you read this. You are a mean person. How dare you criticize anyone’s English when your own lack of mastery of the language is out there for all to see. I award you zero points, Donna. But I have bought you a lifetime subscription to Rosetta Stone so you can learn more English. You need it.
To the wonderful staff of El Agave, thank you so much for such friendly service and simply amazing food. My girlfriend and I just adored it. I am sorry you have to put up with mean people. You are wonderful. You are not alone.

The wait staff was nice enough and we had no service complaints. The restaurant is a bit old, but it was relatively clean.
Unfortunately, the food was not phenomenal. The chips are definitely not made in house and the house salsa was very watery. The rojo sauce was pretty bland and the stuffed chili pepper looked pretty black. Much of the food seems to be likely frozen and reheated at some point. The rice was the best part and we really liked it.
The prices were pretty good, but they also charge a 4% fee if you use a credit card.
Overall, this place is okay, but I would probably skip it.

Very friendly staff, quick service, good food! Especially like the salsa and their chicken soup is the BEST!! We have tried a variety of their menu options and haven’t been disappointed in any!

We eat here all the time only because of the food not for service. The service is always terrible .The wattress always act like you are bothering them excuse me , but it is your job. If you don’t like your job fine a new one. They don’t even check on you or refill your water unless you flag them down same for salsa and chips.REMEMBER Without Customers You Have No Job! I None Of The Waitress Are Friendly At All. I don’t give Tips If You Don’t Give Good Customer Service. I hope this owner sees this review and fixes this because this type of Service is totally unacceptable. I am sure I am not the only Bad Review This Location Has Had.I Don’t Like Spending My Hard Earned Money We’re I Am Not Appreciated. Also Make sure To Put In Your Menu That You Can’t Take Home Salsa Or Chips That You Give Out With Your Food. This Is The Only Mexican Restaurant That Does That. Why Can’t I Take Home The Salsa That Has already Been Eaten From? You Are Just Going To Throw It Away. I Have Never Heard Of Such. Any Other Mexican Restaurant I Eat At Always Lets Us Take Home What We Don’t Eat. I Don’t Appreciate How I Was Treated From Your Waitress She Definitely Is Not A People Person. And Definitely Needs To Go Thru Customer Service Training..She Has Waited On Us Over the Years definitely No Personality.

We just got done hiking turtle back falls and actually passed by. We decided that was dinner, so we turned around. They seated us right away. The menu had a lot of amazing sounding options. The salsa was sweet compared to most restaurants i have been to. But was still great. Drinks came fast and the food came really fast. I think we were seated about 15 minutes and had our full order. The agave burrito was amazing. My wife and son’s food were awesome as well. And the bill was about average for most of the same restaurants.

We’ve consistently had good meals at El Agave. It’s not a big place but it’s right on Main street in Pickens. During cooler weather it is nice to sit outside at one of their two tables. We both ordered from the El Agave Specials on their menu. The first picture is their homemade flan. Huge portion to be shared by two and no, we didn’t do dessert first. The middle picture is their La Superior dish. That is a burrito and a chili pepper which is actually a poblano. Both stuffed with ground beef and topped with ranchero sauce and served with refried beans and rice. Very tasty. The last dish are their fried chimichangas served with sour cream, tomato and guacamole salad. The burritos were to be made with beef tips but these were made el pastor (pork) in error and were fantastic. They do start you with chips and salsa but have a good selection of appetizers. BTW the people working here are friendly and attentive.
