New Albany Mexican restaurant opens location in Gahanna

GAHANNA, Ohio (WCMH) – A New Albany-based Mexican restaurant has opened a second location in Gahanna.

The eatery serves tacos, burritos, quesadillas, fajitas and other traditional Mexican dishes. Blue Agave’s website states its food is made from locally-sourced, fresh ingredients.

“Our popular items on the menu would have to be obviously margaritas,” said manager of Blue Agave in Gahanna Jason Martinez. “Margaritas are probably the most we sell. Then we have our fajitas; you can never really go wrong with fajitas.”

Martinez listed the “Burrito California” as another one of the restaurant’s most popular dishes, describing it as a “huge” cheesy burrito with chicken or steak.

“So far Gahanna has been really welcoming,” Martinez said. “Everybody here is nice, our neighbors are nice, the people are really nice. For the most part, everybody’s really excited that we’re here, and I’m really happy that we’re here as well.”

Blue Agave opens at 11 a.m. daily and closes at 10 p.m. on Monday through Thursday, 10:30 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, and 9 p.m. on Sunday.
