Adding gourmet ingredients to a meal makes a commonplace activity feel special, much like brushing your teeth with a sparkler or withdrawing money from an ATM while holding it at gunpoint. Enhance a meal with today's Groupon: for $15, you get $30 worth of Southwestern fare and drinks at The Agave Kitchen, located in Hudson.

The Agave Kitchen grills, sears, and fries up burgers, fish, and border-inspired entrees with Southwestern flavor. The menu boasts decadent starters such as the twin filet-mignon sliders with caramelized onions and blue cheese ($9.50 for 2, $17 for 4), and main dishes range from the adventurous lobster mac 'n' cheese with applewood-smoked bacon ($15) to traditional deep-fried chimichangas stuffed with a choice of beef, chicken, or pork ($12). The Agave Kitchen's specialty burgers pile on a choice of Angus beef ($11), chicken breast ($10), or black-bean patties ($12) with flavor infusions such as the Shrub combo with bacon, jalapeño, and mac 'n' cheese, or the Steeburger Deluxe featuring bacon, cheddar and jack cheeses, pulled pork, barbecue sauce, and coleslaw.

Gratify gastro-grumblings in The Agave Kitchen's warm and inviting modern-ranch-style dining room. Midnight snackers can eschew desultory spoonfuls of peanut butter in favor of hot, fresh entrees—The Agave Kitchen serves food until 1 a.m. Monday–Saturday and until midnight on Sunday, after which it closes up, turns into a tumbleweed, and bounces away.
