The Ashland Food Guide

Agave

A local favorite in the heart of Ashland, serving creative tacos & tamales using gourmet ingredients. Where art meets food. Featured on Food Network's Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives - Guy loved the Winter Squash and Portobello Tamales with house made red tamale sauce.

We ordered tapas style from their vegetarian choices. Everything was excellent. I don't often get meat free tamales!

This creekside gem blew me away. The west coast (even the northern areas like Oregon) has a high bar when it comes to Mexican food and these guys exceeded it, and then some. I started off with their house special margarita (perfectly balanced, not overpowered with tequila and also not too sweet) and then had the fresh salsa with homemade chips (crisp, perfectly salted, not greasy whatsoever). The ceviche had a generous amount of shrimp and the complementary textures made it one of my favorites, and the tacos/beans/rice clinched the deal. The owner and management were totally on their game -- attentive without hovering, super friendly yet professional, and genuinely appreciative of each customer who chose Agave over the many other restaurants nearby. The protected patio overlooking the creek was intimate and provided great people-watching as I enjoyed one of the best meals I've had in Ashland in years. Gracias Amigos!

Came here for appetizers and tried their ceviche. It was not very busy, only one other group. Was quickly served. They have a long list of typical Mexican food. Nice ambiance with paintings inside the restaurant. It’s well located in the city center with plenty of parking.

Fabulous Mexican fare served by attentive, friendly staff. The grilled fish tacos have a generous portion of Tilapia fish. Chips and guacamole are a must. The presentation is beautiful.

BEST Chicken Taquitos I will probably ever have in my life. Mind blown how good they were. All the food was so good. Loved the presentation. Good customer service too.
