My discriminating palate cried “foul!” What is this!? Surely not a “red” or enchilada sauce!? It was horrible! It may even have been an attempt at a molé, perhaps? Since both the enchilada and the relleno were covered in this goo my dinner was ruined! Next, I tried the refried beans. My curiosity compelled me to taste the sauce singularly.

The food arrived and I noticed a dark red almost molé-style sauce covered both the single enchilada and the relleno. The meat was to be ground beef, NOT shredded beef. I ordered a combination plate of an enchilada, chili relleno, taco, rice, and refried beans. The menu’s offerings were somewhat limited as I expected more from such a locale and the effort to remodel. The chips were warm and fresh but the salsa was weak and bland. A slick, double sided, single page menu was presented along with the obligatory corn chips and salsa. My wife, son, and I were promptly and courteously seated. The ambiance was well appointed and tastefully done is a Southwestern style motif. The casino completely remodeled the old buffet dining area into a nice looking new restaurant. Since I live about two miles from the Gold Country Casino in Oroville, California, we decided to try their new Agave Mexican restaurant.
