    The food was very good but it was my impression that "Denver Restaurant Week" was a package deal of which the $35 price tag would cover 2 people. It ended up being that for each person, so the sticker shock when I got the bill was unfortunate (I chalk that up to my own misunderstanding). Our waitress Lexi was great; attentive, and friendly. We also did not have to wait for a long time for our bill which tells me she was "reading the customer" in that we had another engagement for the evening (but did not ask us that I recall)

    We went for the denver restarant week special and were really disappointed. The food was lacking in flavor and seasoning- everything was pretty blame and mediocre. The chips had a lot of crumbs and the entrees were a bit small. Overall, there is so much good Mexican food in denver, I would softest going somewhere else

    Although my airline chicken was good the breast was dry. The mole sauce was on point. Too much pico in the rice. Not sure if it was supposed to be mixed or not. Again the dish was good.

    Horrible experience. Had a reservation for 7:30. Took at least 30 minutes to get appetizers but they were good. We still hadn’t gotten our entrees at 9:20, which was 1 hour and 50 minutes after we were seated (and 2 hours after getting there; we were 10 minutes early). Asked for the manager and were told that entrees would be coming soon but weren’t ready yet. We left at that point, hungry. They didn’t charge us but just a horrible experience. The manager curtly explained that they had accepted too many reservations, which doesn’t make sense to me. I went there because they had reservations available and we didn’t want to wait.

    We had a reservation for 7, we show up at 6:55 and we’re told there were 6 tables ahead of us. We didn’t get seated until 7:40. What’s the point of a reservation? Or waitress was amazing, but the hostess seemed to have messed up pretty epically.

    We were very excited about the restaurant week menu, and appreciate the vegan options, but unfortunately things fell short. The fire roasted salsa was watery and had no spice at all. The guacamole was bland. The entrees took over an hour to arrive and when they did, one was completely different from what was described on the menu. We didn’t think about it at the time because we were just relieved to see food. All in all, the evening was a bit disappointing.

    This was our second time coming here before a Colorado Symphony concert. The first time was excellent. This time the food took one hour and 10 minutes to arrive to our table and was bland and luke warm. We had to ask for our check with our food so we could make it to the concert in time and we had a reservation for an hour and 45 minutes before we had to be there. Won't be back not worth it.

    Great experience. We started with a queso Fundido. It was served with warm tortillas. The queso was amazing, the heat cut with a cool dollop of sour cream and a scoop of delicious salsa. 6/5 amazing! I had the Angry burger. It was spicy, and perfectly cooked medium the fries were hot and crispy and cooked to order. 9/10, so very good Wife had the shrimp scampi pasta. This was the highlight of the night. Shrimps cooked perfectly in white wine, butter, and garlic. The chef has a deft hand and let’s the star of the dish, shine. The sauce was a perfect compliment. 10/10. Blue agave has their dinner game together. I cannot recommend enough. Thanks for a wonderful evening.

    My husband and I are glad that we dined at Blue Agave Grill. The food was really good. The guacamole needed a little salt and the mole sauce was a bit heavy on my dish. But overall, it was a really good experience. Lexi was kind and always checking in to make sure we had what we needed. The entire staff was great! The manager and another staff member were kind as well. We were stuffed and glad that we made the decision to eat there!

    Food was very good and there were lots of options. Service was ok. I believe they may have been short staffed as our server had a lot of tables, which I understand. We were on a business trip and for expense purposes, we needed alcohol on a separate check, which we told him before we ordered, and he kind of gave us a little push back...

    Blue Agave Grill - DenverResponded on February 8, 2023Hello, Thank you for dining and for sharing your experience with us. I am sorry to hear about the delay in getting your food to you promptly. We strive to get apps and entrees out within 10 and 20 minutes respectively. It seems we fell a bit short of that expectation and I'm sorry for that. I'd love the opportunity to see you visit again, I know we can do better and provide a much more balanced experience. I'm hoping the drinks were at least enjoyable. Cheers, Rob Duran Regional Manager
