So glad we called because the hours on Google for Sundays were wrong. They were definitely open at 1pm Sunday. Our family shared the mixed ceviche and half dozen molotes on the recommendation of the server. Both were superb! My 2 fish tacos were delicious and the rice and beans were perfectly seasoned. The enchiladas were delicious as was the coloradito chicken plate. They had Christmas drink specials, so we'll have to come back to try that sometime!

This restaurant was such a treat! Our waiter was top tier, had the best attitude and his attention to detail was superb! We shared some items and everything was DELICIOUS. Loved the decor. We had many drinks therefore our bill was a little high, but great prices overall.

Agave Uptown is a standout Mexican restaurant on a corner in Oakland. The food was incredible—rich in flavor, beautifully presented, and clearly made with care. Service was excellent: the staff was friendly, attentive, and welcoming. The cocktails were solid and complemented the overall experience nicely. Great atmosphere, great hospitality—highly recommended.

A gastronomic gem of Oakland, Agave Uptown was the perfect place for a work lunch. The citrus infused water lets you know that this place pays attention to detail. I got a mango cocktail that was really refreshing. For my lunch I ordered the coastal bowl with sea bass. The sea bass was perfectly cooked, tender, flaky, and the chef did not overpower the dish with salt. The natural flavors of the seasonal vegetables and the sea bass itself shined. And that is truly what is so great about the food here: flavor comes from the complex combination of ingredients and not from salt or spices masking the ingredients. The quality of food here is top-notch, complemented with attentive, friendly service, set with comforting, rustic ambiance. Highly recommend.
