¡Ay Güey! Agaveria
8.2
A coastal-leaning Mexican kitchen built around mariscos energy and a cocktail program designed to be part of the meal. The best experience comes from ordering seafood-forward starters first, then closing with one composed main so the pacing stays clean.

Octopus Tacos, Aguachile Mango - Habanero, Torre De Mariscos

Insider tip: Start with mariscos first—save heavier mains for the end.
Logistics & Planning
Parking: Street parking only; manageable early evening but gets tight after 7pm on weekends. Metered spots nearby.
Dress code: Smart casual to dressy-casual. Jeans are fine, but lean polished—this is a cocktail-forward room.
Noise level: Moderate-lively. You can hold a conversation, but expect music and bar energy as the night goes on.
Weekend wait: 30–60 minutes without a reservation during peak hours
Weekday lunch: No wait typically; easy walk-in
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Yes – a handful of vegetable-forward starters and mains, though the menu is seafood-led.
Vegan options: Limited – some starters can be modified, but it’s not a vegan-focused kitchen.
Gluten-free options: Yes – many mariscos dishes are naturally gluten-free; staff can guide safe picks.
Best For
Better for: Mariscos-forward Mexican dining paired with a strong agave cocktail program and a night-out atmosphere.
Skip if: You want traditional, home-style Mexican plates, quiet dining, or a family-friendly setup.
