Agave DOro Mexican Bar and Grill - West Melbourne (FL)

3 /5 Charles Curley: Our group wasnct very impressed by Agave DOro. The skinny margaritas were not good, the chimichangas were dry and overcooked, the tacos were pretty tasteless, but the guacamole was terrific as was the salsa. Probably not going back.

4 /5 Kimberly Brainard: Bartender: Ebson 5/5. Super attentive. Super friendly. Chips and Salsa: 5/5 LARGE portion. Ordered: 4/5 Enchiladas Guadalajara & The Lunch Enchiladas S*. Food was average for a Mexican Restaurant.

1 /5 Ivy Gordon: At 2:45pm EST we were seated at a booth at Agave D’Oro Mexican bar and grill. At first we noticed the temperature of the facility was warm and humid, like the air conditioning was not working properly. We then placed an order with our waitress around 2:55pm EST, I ordered the “pollo yucatan” which comes with grilled chicken breast, grilled veggies, guacamole salad, and rice. The food came out and was served to my party at about 3:05pm EST, which do seem super fast, but the food was hot, look good. BUT once I started eating, I only got about 2 bites of food when I saw a Living, Crawling Cockroach, crawl out from underneath the pile of Orange rice on my plate, it was about the size of a dime, I spit my food out immediately and killed the cockroach, on my plate with a napkin, my mother, who was with me, got up immediately to get a manager, by the time the manager walked back to the table I was sick to my stomach and needed to exit the restaurant as soon as possible. The managers didn’t say anything besides “I’m sorry” which felt very dismissive and not empathetic at all. so we immediately left. I then vomitted in the parking lot and to this point I am still very ill. This restaurant should not be operating, the lack of cleanliness and professionalism is awful, I will never be returning. I’m very concerned that this restaurant has an active pest issue, a cockroach that is alive crawling from the food I was literally eating is a SERIOUS health and sanitation concern.

5 /5 Jenny Allen: I don’t know how this place gets anything other than 5 stars! We have eaten at many Mexican restaurants all over and this was THE best one ever! Food was amazingly delicious and the margarita was oh so yummy. Service was impeccable. The decor was gorgeous!

4 /5 Timothy Ellison: Agave D’Oro: A Vibrant Fiesta of Flavor Worth the Wait A full parking lot is often the most reliable sign of a restaurants quality, and Agave D’Oro validates this theory before you even step through the door. The bustling energy is palpable from the moment you enter, where a chalkboard of daily specials hints at the culinary delights to come. The transition from its former life as a Bennigans is remarkable, now exuding an authentic Mexican cantina vibe with vibrant decor and spacious aisles, a feeling further enhanced on weekends by a lively mariachi band that serenades guests from table to table. Service is swift and welcoming; we were seated immediately and presented with chips and salsa almost simultaneously. While the bar boasts an impressive selection of beers, the true star is the margarita menu, featuring generously poured, sizable cocktails that are both potent and delicious, setting a high standard for the meal to follow. The menu delivers on the promise of authentic, well-crafted fare. My choice, the shrimp chimichangas, arrived as two perfectly crispy flour tortillas, generously stuffed and smothered with a rich cheese dip. It also has a generous amount of lettuce, sour cream, guacamole, and tomato on the side to add your own favorites (it is not needed though), and Each bite was a delightful combination of texture and flavor. My wifes taco salad, while appearing modest in its crispy flour tortilla bowl, was a deceptively filling and flavorful combination of shredded chicken, beans, and fresh toppings. Both dishes showcased the kitchens commitment to delivering hearty, satisfying portions without sacrificing quality, presenting classic Mexican-American comfort food at its finest. Concluding our meal, the unavailable fried ice cream led us to a delightful alternative: the Tres Leches cake. It was a perfectly executed classic, providing a sweet and satisfying end to the evening. Despite the packed house, the service remained attentive, and while the high traffic was evident in the restrooms, it did little to detract from the overall outstanding experience. Agave D’Oro stands out as a must-visit destination, offering a fantastic combination of authentic, flavorful cuisine, a lively atmosphere, and exceptional value. Its a genuine local gem that has earned its bustling crowd.
