  I reserved a table for 12 people more than a week in advance for a special celebration. Before the reservation, I spoke directly with Miguel, also known as Mickey, who assured me that he had made notes in the system regarding our party size and that everything would be prepared for our arrival. Unfortunately, when we arrived, our table was not ready and the restaurant was not prepared to accommodate our party of 12. When I addressed the situation with the manager, she was extremely rude and unprofessional. We were told that the tables could not be moved because they were essentially fixed in place. This was especially frustrating because I had specifically made the reservation in advance and had spoken with Mickey beforehand about accommodating our group. Eventually, the restaurant added high-top tables to create one large space for our party and she said this is all you are going to get. We proceeded with our celebration and spent over $600, including bottle service and food. Even the bottle service presentation was disappointing. When our bottle was brought out, it was simply placed on the table as if we had ordered a regular drink. For a celebration and bottle service experience, we expected the bottle to be presented properly, with a sign and flashing lights that were supposed to accompany the bottle service. None of that happened. The manager continued to ask us of we were ready for our check when we clearly still had alcohol left in our bottle. We eventually left to check out another bar but returned shortly afterward for the club portion of the evening. When we returned, the manager appeared visibly unhappy that we were back. I requested to speak with Mickey because I wanted to address what had happened and hopefully resolve the situation. Unfortunately, Mickey was extremely rude and dismissive. He repeatedly talked over me and would not allow me to properly explain my concerns. Instead of taking accountability, he insisted that he had explained the table situation to me beforehand. That conversation never happened. Had I been told that the restaurant could not properly accommodate a party of 12, I would never have made the reservation there in the first place. What made the experience even more disappointing was that our party appeared to be the only customers in the restaurant at the time. There were literally no other guests inside, which made it even harder to understand why a reservation that had been made a week in advance and could not be properly accommodated. After being repeatedly talked over and dismissed, I decided to walk away from the conversation. At that point, Mickey began yelling, “She’s out of here, get her out of here,” Then the situation escalated further. When my best friend came to the entrance looking for me, Mickey began yelling at her and, pushed her in the stomach telling her to get out the way, before kicking members from our party out of the club. This was completely unacceptable and turned what was supposed to be a celebration into an extremely upsetting experience. I have never been treated this way by a business after spending my hard-earned money there. The lack of communication, the failure to honor the expectations established when the reservation was made, the disappointing bottle service presentation, the refusal to take accountability, and the way management handled the confrontation were all incredibly disappointing. We went there to celebrate, and instead the entire celebration was ruined. I would never return to this establishment, and based on my experience, I would not recommend it to anyone looking to celebrate a special occasion or spend their money there. Management needs to seriously reconsider how customers are treated, particularly customers who make reservations in advance and spend significant amounts of money at their establishment.

  July 20th 2026 around 5:30 Worst quesadillas I’ve ever seen, bland not fully cooked, just dough. No Pico de gallo, no sour cream, no guacamole, just a pile of lettuce and to some shredded cheese and the smallest thing of sauce that would only accommodate one triangle was ridiculous. Once I saw my sisters, I decided I didn’t want anything to eat period! I bought a drink, had to send it back, tasted of sour fruit and was just average so I settled for an $18 glass of wine, only because I needed it after the day I had. I know what good food looks and taste like and this place isn’t it? Ms Janette was a sweetheart though. I give 5 stars for her❤️

  ★★★★☆ (4/5) Stopped by Agaves Kitchen & Tequila on Pine Avenue in Long Beach during the FIFA World Cup watch party, and it ended up being a really fun experience. We didn’t originally plan on coming, but Pine was shut down for the festivities and the atmosphere was great. Lots of fans, big screens, and a fun energy throughout the game. Because of the event they were running a limited menu, which was completely understandable given how busy everything was. I ordered the burrito without rice and really enjoyed it. The green sauce and cheese on top were delicious, and the fries were perfectly crispy. We also shared the ceviche, which was fresh and flavorful, and the house chips that came with it were surprisingly one of my favorite parts. The margaritas were solid and hit the spot while watching the match. Service held up well considering the crowd, and overall it was a cool place to spend the afternoon. Definitely a spot I’d come back to when there’s another big event happening. Food: 4/5 Drinks: 4/5 Atmosphere: 5/5 Overall: 4/5 ⭐️

  Gross, not a classy crowd, blasting music to the point where you have to speak loudly into the person‘s ear sitting next to you just to have a conversation. The food was mediocre. I asked the server if the music could be turned down a little and she gave me a dirty look and said that’s how we do it here. Some drunk women were dancing and one came up to our table and did some Twerking. I guess typical Long Beach.
