Blue Agave - Painting

Had another quick visit (my second overall) recently to Blue Agave Southwest Grill in Yorba Linda. Billed as Southwest fare it strikes me more as Mexican food with a Southwest flair.

I tried out a new item, the Puerto Nuevo Tostada, described in their menu online as: "Warm shrimp, Mahi-Mahi and mushrooms are over a bed of mixed greens, cucumbers and hicama Tossed in a pumpkinseed citrus dressing. Topped with sour cream and fresh raspberries." It's sweet and savory, crunchy and juicy . . . and good for you . . . all at once.

James got the Tempe Tacos, "Homemade flour tortillas . . . stuffed with grilled chicken breast [and] served with a spicy chile and tomato spread. Served with Texas beans and rice." It can also be served with grilled steak or fresh Mahi-Mahi in place of the chicken.

Their flan actually has pineapple, mango, and papaya in it:

I'm still waiting for a visit to Blue Agave when I can really take it all in. There's so many more things on their menu I want to try, but that's the fun of this job, er, hobby. Blue Agave Southwest Grill earns a four and a half Speedy Gonzales rating:

  2. Thanks, CP. And this is completely off topic but I went to eat at Cathay Newport the other day and found out it had closed down, apparently for good.

  3. The Blue Agave is my favorite Mexican/Southwester restaurant in Orange County PERIOD. It never disappoints.
