Agave Dining

I met up with some friends at Agave in the West Village for dinner. We had reserved a table through opentable.com (which I adore), and were seated in the cavernous back room. The sheer size of the place, not common in the area, really amazed us. Like Mojave, its sister restaurant in Astoria, Agave’s decor reflects its Southwestern cuisine.
My friends and I hadn’t seen each other in a while, so we basically chatted non-stop from the time we sat down, until the waiter came around to take our order. So we needed more time. Finally, we ordered a pitcher of sangria for the table and I ordered a Grilled Shrimp taco for myself. The sangria was very tasty, as was my shrimp. When it came time to order dessert, we again were having too much fun talking to make a hasty decision. At this point, the waiter rather rudely pointed out that there was a reservation for 5 that needed to be seated and we should make our selection. I felt that was in poor taste, and we were all a little annoyed at that comment.
I left the place thinking that the atmosphere and menu were great, but the service was a little cold. Of course, it could have just been that waiter.
