## 🔥 THIS is why NYC foodies are OBSESSING over our Aguachile Verde... (Hint: It's the Pegu Club secret.) 🔥 The MOMENT when tangy lime meets the gentle bite of serrano chili... That's when culinary magic happens at ¡AY GÜEY! Agavería. Our Aguachile Verde isn't just food—it's an EXPERIENCE. Tender shrimp and octopus CURED to perfection in our vibrant verde sauce that packs both heat and citrus punch. The cool cucumber and creamy avocado balance every bite with refreshing contrast. But the real story. Our cocktails. Curated by Artemio Vasquez, whose mixology skills were honed at NYC legends Pegu Club and PDT. Each drink is crafted with the same precision and passion as our coastal Mexican cuisine. This isn't just dinner. It's a journey to coastal Sinaloa without leaving NYC. Hungry yet. Thirsty. Both. Swipe up to reserve your table. Your taste buds will thank you.
Our Mango-Habanero Aguachile isn't just food—it's an experience that transports you straight to coastal Mexico. Perfectly cured shrimp dancing with tender octopus. Crisp cucumber providing textural contrast. Creamy avocado balancing the heat of habanero. And that SAUCE—a symphony of sweet mango, spicy habanero, aromatic garlic, and tangy lime finished with a whisper of honey. But we didn't stop at revolutionizing aguachile. Our cocktail program, curated by Artemio Vasquez (yes, THAT Artemio—of Pegu Club and PDT fame), delivers libations worthy of your most memorable nights out. This isn't just dinner. It's coastal Mexican cuisine reimagined through a lens of passion, artistry, and authenticity. You could spend another weekend at a forgettable restaurant... or you could experience ¡AY GÜEY! Agavería and finally understand why our guests can't stop coming back. Reservations in bio. Your taste buds will thank you.
