Agave Mexican Restaurant - Gulfport, MS

Did someone say nacho fries? 

Disclaimer: I have eaten El Agave several times, but all were delivered by Waitr

A fairly well known fact about me is that I am a fan of fries with stuff on top of them. I've had fries with all sorts of toppings, but when I saw nacho fries on the menu here my heard darn near exploded. The weakest part of nachos is the chips and the best part of fries is the fries. Mind blown.

I strongly recommend you order the nacho fries with the addition of steak. It's fajita steak and you also get all the other accoutrements that normally come with nachos. They're great.

In addition to the nacho fries I have also had their mixed fajitas. The quality of steak, chicken and shrimp are as good as any I've had on the Ms Gulf Coast. Whatever they marinate their meat in is slightly smokey and that flavor permeates both the meat and veggies. It's so good that I ditched the tortillas and ate it with a fork. 

I can't speak about the service in the restaurant, but I can tell you that my order has always been complete which says something.

Looking for Mexican food on the coast? El Agave should be own your list.

The Greatest Mississippi Gulf Coast Blog - An Introduction

Before I begin, I need to clarify one thing about this blog. It may not actually be the greatest MS Gulf Coast Blog in existence, but I will do my best to keep it interesting. Let's begin.

I grew up in, and still live in, the New Orleans Metropolitan area. Ever since I was a small child, my family and I would travel to the coast for long weekends, day trips, and everything in between. To me the gulf coast of MS was paradise. Those memories are forever ingrained inside of me.

I started bringing my own kids here many years ago. We began by driving up for the day to spend time on the Bay St. Louis Beach. Those day trips turned into weekend trips and we found ourselves spending more and more time here. I would even drive up on a Friday night just to spend a few hours shooting photos. The call of the coast was strong and I knew I needed to find a permanent place here sooner rather than later.

In the summer of 2016 that dream became a reality and I know split my time between the coast and New Orleans area. This blog will focus on my adventures on the coast including photography, dining, cooking, and all sorts of things in between.

I hope you enjoy this blog and look forward to reading your comments.
