Agave del Scottsdale packs its menu with high-end Mexican cuisine.
One starter includes a trio of sopecitos weighed down with chicken tinga, shrimp, chorizo, and potato; there are also four types of ceviche — tuna, octopus, shrimp, and white fish. Mains include Chilean sea bass with Coronado pasila chile sauce, prime filet mignon with corn truffle sauce, and a baked salmon filet with fried spinach and sweet basil sauce.
Mole is served over chicken or pork after 48-hour prep sessions — inspired by generations-old family recipes.
To drink, Agave del Scottsdale will specialize in what else, margaritas and tequila-based cocktails. There will be more than 100 varieties of tequila, as well as a tequila cart that will wheel around for tableside service. Mix that with fresh juice and fruit, including flavors like watermelon, kiwi, hibiscus, and spicy cucumber, for a pretty memorable margarita. Options also include mezcal, wine, and anything from the full bar.
