The food at El Agave is authentic Mexican cuisine. Their sauces and tortillas are homemade, and the salsa is chunky and fresh. The wait can be long on a weekend, and the prices for all of this are not cheap. I do love the food here, and would recommend taking it go, as the staff leaves much to be desired. They are consistently rude and inattentive at the table. Each time I've eaten in the restaurant, it's guaranteed that I won't receive timely refills, and have to wait forever before even getting waited on.

Trying to to treat ourselves to a nice dinner in Old Town San Diego turned into a disaster. This is a spruced up tequileria that charges between $25-30 for an entree, which wouldn't be so terrible if we actually received decent service and good food. Once you've waited 20 minutes for someone to take your drink order, you begin to understand why they have so much tequila. You're going to need it. We received the worst treatment I've ever had in my life. The other tables around us were seated and served and gone before we even received our drinks. It took over an hour and a half to receive our entrees, which were not worth the amount of money and time we spent for them. Though the restaurant wasn't terribly busy, our waiter ignored us to the point where we nearly walked out without paying the bill. Overall, a terrible dining experience, please do not waste your time.
