Casa Del Agave

Nice change of pace in the B-​terminal of the Seattle-​Tacoma International airport. While waiting for a flight, we looked at a number of lunch options and settled on the Casa Del Agave. Very nice interior — bright and open, with a big bright window.
I ordered the lettuce wraps — thin butter lettuce was the problem. They really should consider iceberg or romaine rather than the thin single piece of butter lettuce. It came with shrimp — a detail I missed in the menu and I can’t eat shrimp, but Anne ordered the Mexican Chop Salad that had chicken so we just swapped so that worked out.
But I just chopped it all up and made it a salad so it was just fine. Good flavor — quality ingredients, not only on my wraps but Anne’s salad as well. Do know the menu is pretty limited and unlike typical Mexican places, you DON’T get a basket of chips and salsa!
Service was very good. The prices are «typical airport high» — $ 47 for lunch for two (I had a beer, Anne a soda) so it’s not a cheap place to eat but IMO is worth it.
If you want a sit-​down meal at Sea-​Tac, I’d recommend Casa Del Agave

Great service and great food. Prices are typical airport prices but nice atmosphere to chill in while waiting for my flight. Ordered the two carnitas corn tacos and was not disappointed. Service would be one reason I would return. Oh and they dont charge for refills. :)

I’m back.
What I mean by that is I’m back to the states (and Unilocal!) after four months in Bangkok. So full disclosure I have not had any remotely good Mexican food in a very long time.
That being said, I ordered the chilaquiles here and though it was pricey (I mean, it’s an airport – of course it’s pricey) it had tons of melted cheese, a large dollop of sour cream, and two eggs over medium (I would recommend asking if you can get it over easy, over medium was meh) add some chipotle tapatio and you’ve got yourself a happy gal. The service was also attentive and spot on – a big plus!
Was it the best Mexican food I’ve ever had? Of course not. But was it exactly what I needed after 4 months of Thai food? Yes. So thanks for that, Casa!

I’ve never eaten here but they have a pretty good drink special. You can add a shot to a beer for $ 3 which is the same deal as the Alaska Lodge which I prefer but this is very close to the b gates which is more convenient for Southwest flyers.

I ate at this place on my way out of Seattle two days ago and got terrible food poisoning. I had tacos. I thought they just weren’t good and then I got very sick and only now feel human. Eat here at your own risk. I will never step foot in this place again. Disgusting.

Blair the bartender asked me if I wanted a double shot in my margarita, I clearly said no. There was only one shot if that. The gentleman next to me had ordered a double. I was charged for the other guys double, and when confronted about a simple mixup Blair the bartender told me «Cmon dude I gave you like 2 and a half shots». Last thing I want after a long day of travel is to be ripped off and called a liar.

Its the airport — prices are inflated. Don’t believe me? Check out McDonald’s!
But this place has the best staff, food and service even when slammed!
Black bean soup is a thing. Quite nice! Comes with chips, salsa and sour cream. Barbacoa quesadilla was great! Get the guac! (Dollar extra)
I always stop here if I fly while they are open…

This is one of the best places I’ve been to in an airport. The service was brisk yet sincere, the drinks are the main focus (which is what everyone wants anyway), and the salad I had was both tasty and filling-​uncommon for bar/​airport food.
I had a double bullit and coke, plus a casa salada with no red onion and dressing on the side. Both were delicious and worth the extra airport penny… especially when I was stuck there for what seemed like eternity due to a delayed flight.
The bill came out to $ 27, pretty standard… I’d say if you are in the b-​terminal, thirsty, and a smidgen hungry/​looking for food to take on the plane… try it!
Ultimately I tried to make it to Beechers in the C terminal but that was light years away and if I were to be stranded here again I may just make another visit to this south of the border eatery.

Basically, had a taco salad. A little brutal on the amount of lettuce stalks. Good flavor though. 2 beers, a quesadilla, and 2 salads — $ 60. Service was questionable. .one server for the whole restaurant. Poor guy was way over worked. No place for luggage. Felt like a sardine in a can.
I will not be returning.

What a disappointment. Had a couple of hours to burn and was craving some tacos. Ordered the pork carnitas tacos. It was more like boiled flavorless pork not carnitas. The chips were stale and the green salsa tasted canned. Save your money this is not Mexican food.

Airport food is basic. They have a captive audience of weary travelers. This place has a nice bar, with good margaritas. It is not your typical mexican fare. No burritos, but a make your own taco. Nice salads and lettuce wraps filled with grilled shrimp. Friendly service. Overall, a good choice.

Great for when you want a drink before your flight. The Asian male bartender there is pretty good at his job.
Got us to order two large beers and then smoothly introduced a 3 dollar shot option after. Unfortunately, we had to drive an hour after we got off our short flight to San Jose so we politely declined.
But the delivery was smooth. Real smooth.

Just a cool little spot to grab a drink and bite to eat before your flight, maybe some small talk with other travelers. Nothing extravagant, just super chill and comfortable.

There are breakfast and lunch/​dinner options. We had the Ancho chili chicken quesadilla and the shrimp quesadilla. Both were quite tasty. Guacamole was good but the flour tortilla really caught me by surprise. It’s a thin tortilla so it comes out crisp and not limp. A very pleasant surprise.

This wouldn’t be a 4 star in the real world but for the land of airport food, this place rocks. I got a couple of tacos and was able to get them with beans since I am vegetarian. Mexican food is also always a good option for people with gluten allergies. The server was really nice and accommodating and the food was quick and fresh.

Lipstick on a pig… Keeping in mind all reviews are relative, I recognize this is an airport… Now throw in some Espanol, some tequila bottles decorating the bar backstop, and a couple 32″ TV’s… Their special is frozen (out of a box?) margaritas. You ask for on the rocks… Sure $ 10 and it was the worst margarita «on the rocks» I’ve ever had. Bartender looks and acts like he’d rather have a root canal.
Ordered the barbacoa tacos: beef was dry as an 3 day old oatmeal cookie, hottest hot sauce was mild, other plastic cup of hot sauce looked and tasted like Pace Picante («New York City!!!»). Sour cream looked like it came out of a plastic bag. Didn’t see advocatoes listed anywhere on menu… I guess they’d be too fresh and require some thought of assembly… Look, save yourself… Go get some fish tacos or buy a bag of peanuts at one of the book stores. As airports go this place was a dump.
By the way… What’s up with us Americans?! We put up with this poor quality? No wonder we’re so obese. Quality is what I’m after and you’ll never find it here. Icing on the cake, service was not even service… Felt like I was a unwanted guest in the bartenders studio apartment. Fake Mexican food, cute name. That’s about it.

So I just traveled almost 6hrs to get to Seattle and while waiting on friends to arrive (which was sooner than I expected) stopped in here for a bite. Had a chicken quesadilla and shocktop beer. Nothing crazy. Place was of course cramped to the max since it’s an airport joint but the service was fast and friendly.
Fast, I mean fast. Under 5 min my food was out on my table. Most likely because the only thing on the menu worth a damn is the quesadilla. So I assume they have them all queued up in the back. It didnt taste like a mass production though and certainly better than Taco Hell.
Of course it was pricey but what airport food isnt? Dropped around $ 20 including tip. Left full.

AVOID THIS PLACE at Seatac airport unless you have a Long layover.
I asked for a mini quesadilla in 15 mins and the the only thing this dick server says is «it aint gonna happen!» I don’t expect much from airport restaurants (Seatac is above ave) but how long does it take to melt cheese in a tortilla? Server has NO biz in food service!

I will start with the good our server rocked. She was awesome and the only reason most of the people there didn’t walk out.
But as good as she was she could not make up for how bad everything else is. I know this is airport food but even by that standard this place is horrible. The salsa is old El Paso right out jar. They were out of the first 3 items we ordered and the chips were at least 7 months old.

It’s an airport restaurant, so call me crazy, but I don’t have high standards to start. I was pleasantly surprised by how quickly I had a menu and a water glass. Since I has already looked at the menu, she was able to take my order right away and I had my food in less than 10 minutes. This is great for a quick lay over or a last minute meal before a flight. I ordered the chorizo lettuce wraps (not sure what it was actually called but it was an appetizer) and it was delicious! I wanted something with flavor and this delivered! Not to mention the avocados and cotija cheese that add a perfect compliment to the spicy chorizo.
The bar was well stocked, which if you have time to kill, may be all you care about at an airport. I also liked the fun décor inside. The restaurant was open to the main walkway and had many windows so you didn’t feel all shut-​in. The waitress was polite and super efficient. I’d stop by again if I was in the terminal.
