The food was very good and service was great but for $300 for the ribeye not sure I would spend that much again as there are better tomahawks for a cheaper price elsewhere. Would like to go back and try the chicken and pork for way less

We had a lovely time at Miel de Agave! The ambiance was wonderful and the lighting was perfect. I ordered the ‘Me Quiero…” cocktail and not only was it tasty, but the presentation was beautiful with the rose petals and dry ice giving it extra oomph. For an appetizer we had the pork chicarrones and they were sooo good! The shrimp ceviche was the only miss—it was very mild-flavored and lacked lime and onion like most ceviches…it merely tasted like shrimp in Clamato. My entree was the Birria Torta with consomé and it was delicious—the pickled onions took it over the top. My boyfriend had the pasta with the bacon-wrapped shrimp and it was exquisite. We both agree that when we come back to Phoenix we have to visit again! A true gem!
