"A solid spot for a quick and tasty meal. The tacos were the highlight, complemented by well-crafted margaritas. Though the side dishes are on the smaller side, the efficiency of the staff was impressive. It’s a very inclusive spot with a gluten-free menu and a pet-friendly patio. Looking forward to my next visit.

This restaurant has 2 indoors levels as well as a large covered patio. It is a fun, unpretentious cantina with friendly, relaxed yet efficient service. Prices are(relatively) moderate and the food freshness and quality is good.

Cane here late at night on a Wednesday and boy was it worth it. The ceviche and guacamole were fresh and flavorful. The fajita bowl with the shrimp was a great choice. And the steak and shrimp taco and carnitas taco were recommended and the waitress was right. Amazing flavors and some of the best Mexican food I've had in a long time.

Highly recommend their guacamole and quesabirria tacos with consome! I love their outdoor seating area. Our server was very nice and accommodating. The Baja fish tacos had an odd aftertaste, didn’t care for it too much. Their street corn side has a bit of heat. Parking can be somewhat challenging. Highly recommend securing a dinner reservation. We waited about 20 minutes as a walk-in.

I had an amazing experience at Cien Agaves Tacos & Tequila. It was my first time so I wanted to try a bunch of items. I ordered an amazing dip. Chicken tortilla soup and Hawaiian shrimp tacos. Somehow they all ended up being extremely affordable because it was happy hour. My bill was only $24. I was expecting it to be $60. I’m definitely going back again. All of the staff really seemed to enjoy their job and we’re having fun in high-fiving each other. I feel like a manager stopped by every five seconds and asked if I needed a refill or if I needed salsa and if everything was OK. The vibe in old town Scottsdale is really cool. There was live music happening outside. Lots of people walking around.
