About this restaurant

  • Great for happy hour
  • Lively
  • Great for creative cocktails
Welcome to Masa & Agave Cleveland!

Worshipped as the Aztec gods of fertility and long life, venerated for their powers of sustenance, corn masa and agave have been central to Mexican culture and cuisine since ancient times.

Using authentic techniques, we prepare corn masa-based starters and Mexico City-style tacos that are bursting with regional flavors, along with dinner classics like Pork Carnitas and Negro Monelo-Braised Beef Short Ribs.

Our collection of 100 agave spirits pays homage to the jimadores and mezcaleros who have labored over their craft for generations. Sip on a copita or two, or gather friends for one of our signature Margaritas - try the Tradicionale, Tamarindo or a Margarita al Gusto mixed with your choice of spirit. Salud!

    Amazing experience. Great food and service. Carne asada tacos and Birria Quesadilla were standouts. Can’t wait to go back.

    Cozy atmosphere! The mole was flavorful. Service was friendly and efficient. Prices are reasonable for the quality and portion sizes. Definitely recommend trying their margaritas!

    Great vibe, music flowing, people drinking, exactly what I wanted from a lively spot to impress my clients, Thank you Masa, great food and unobtrusive service, not in the way of my pitches. ***** for business meeting/dinner. Oh, awesome handmade Margarita Tamarind (sp?)

    Great service. Really good spot for breakfast, lunch and dinner in downtown Cleveland! I enjoyed the Baja Tuna bowl, while my guests enjoyed the tacos, quesadilla and appetizers. Fresh, good tasting food and extensive bar list.

    Masa & Agave was outstanding from start to finish. The vibe is warm and stylish, the service was friendly and knowledgeable, and the food? Incredible. The birria tacos and mole were packed with flavor, and the mezcal flight was a fun, curated experience. Easily one of the best meals we’ve had in a while — can’t wait to come back.

    Loved the passion fruit margarita and we all sampled the entire taco list and loved them all, but my favorite was the fish or veggie. Leave room for the churros 😉

    we ordered dinner and when we got 2 chicken quesadillas, only one of them was full of chickens the other was 1/4 of the filled and had to be taken off our bill.

    The food was delicious but overpriced. The service we received from Herman was poor. He was inattentive and argued with me about whether I asked for another drink. The food runner provided better service and was much friendlier. I was about to estimate my own check and just leave money on the table and leave when we finally saw him to ask for the check.
