- YYvonneGoldSan Francisco Bay Area •52 reviews5.0Dined on 27 Apr 2026Solid Mexican restaurant for margaritas (classico & guava). The guava margarita has jalapenos so don't be fooled, it has some kick! Menu is robust with lots of options depending on what your appetite looks like. Starting with chips & salsa--salsa is homemade. Salsa verde looks tame, but has a lot of post-bite fire. the chipotle is very smokey and provides a nice balance against the verde. I went there for the queso fundido and it did not disappoint. I will say that it wasn't as oily as others that I've had... I'm not sure how I feel about it. The creaminess and flavor of the cheese was great, but I do like having that liquid oil on top..... good amount of chorizo. The cheese quesadilla was great---well-proportioned, fresh guac, nice to have the sour cream on the side. The Camarones Xochitl was also delicious--looks benign, but has a mild kick afterwards. Service was attentive, polite, helpful. Endless supply of chips + salsa. Friendly. Thank you!More infoAgave Mexican Bistro$$$$• Contemporary Mexican• Mountain View•3.9
