With a passion for family and food the Lujan sisters came together to open Agave Azul Kitchen & Tequila Bar in 2012. Their goal was to bring together a gathering of authentic Mexican home cooking that stuck to their roots. Their family originated from Zacatecas, Mexico and then came to Hughson, California to begin farming. With this heritage came recipes passed down from generation to generation. Food was the center of their life and growing up on a local farm allowed their family to cook at home with food grown on their land. Sandra and Gabby originally had the thought of opening Taqueria El Agave, but it quickly transformed into a full kitchen serving some of their favorite dishes such as pollo con crema y rajas. The unique thing about Agave Azul is their attention and focus to the quality of each of the ingredients that goes into their recipes and their commitment to never sacrificing on quality home grown ingredients.

    Agave Azul is a great restaurant and has great food. We’ve come here very often, but I have noticed when there are events and there are too many customers the service is not so good. You have to look for your server for water refills or to ask for food that hasn’t been brought out yet.

    The food is excellent. The music is so loud it feels like I’m in a dance club, not a restaurant. I couldn’t hear a word my family said to me and we spent the whole dinner saying, “what? Can you talk louder?” It was a Sunday night. Even the music outdoors for outdoor dining was excessively loud. I want to be able to talk to my friends and family and enjoy my dining experience. Food was great but they need to work on the atmosphere.

    The food was OKAY.. just ok. The ceviche had too much of a tangy taste. The portion was good. Each plate of beans and rice was a separate charge. My main concern was the waitress, who, when presenting the check to me, had already checked the tip percentage amount and did not leave the choice to me. I witnessed a person with a fly deterrent flyer object that should have been offered to all outside tables. I heard about this place and tried it for myself. Been there; Done that
