Agave will keep the art sale going until 8:00! So, swing by after work! 

UPDATE!!!

Agave will continue this art sale one more night... tonight, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 3RD. Again, from 5-7 pm.

If you didn't make it yesterday, you get another chance! It's an opportunity to take home not just art, but a quarter century of memories...

ALL proceeds will go to the restaurant staff. In addition, Jack Sobel will be signing his new album, "the messenger," by Black Swan Lane, for anyone who comes by (the album will cost $5 or be free with any purchase).

Please check out photos of some of the items on sale. It's first-come, first-served, so not everything shown here may be available.

😖 We have been monitoring the evolving weather situation in Metro Atlanta closely and out of an abundance of caution for the staff and our guests throughout the region, Agave will be closed on Sunday, January 25. We are terribly sorry this affects your dining plans, and we really appreciate your patronage. We are unfortunately booked for the remainder of the week and have no ability to move Sunday’s reservations to another day. Thank you for understanding and have a nice weekend.

Regulars of Agave literally lined up in the dining room one evening in January to share their feelings about its imminent closure with the AJC. Here’s what they had to say.

12/06/2025

After 25 incredible years of serving our wonderful community, it is with heavy
hearts that we announce the upcoming closure of our family-owned restaurant
on January 31st, 2026 due to the current economic climate and unsustainable
conditions. This decision was not made lightly, but as our family looks toward a
new chapter, we find it is time to say goodbye. From the bottom of our hearts,
we want to express our deepest gratitude for your unwavering support,
laughter-filled dinners, and the privilege of being part of your celebrations and
everyday moments for a quarter of a century. You have been more than
customers; you have become an extended part of our family, and we will
forever cherish the memories made within these walls. Thank you for the honor
of serving you at the original and first Agave in the country.
Please come support us until the end of January in order to close honorably. We
will be accepting all outstanding gift cards until the time we close permanantly.
Please Help Our Incredible Staff! Any amount donated would be
greatly appreciated! Click below.
