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.

Everything we ordered tasted fabulous. We opted to have hors d’oeuvres like the Philly cheesesteak rolls, the best truffle french fries ever, lamb pops with mint sauce, a side of ancient grains and a shared beet & goat cheese salad. Topped off by the Butter cake for dessert!! Service was excellent also!! Will look forward to coming back!!

We enjoyed our visit. The food was delicious and the staff were very friendly. The music was not too loud and the variety of music was great. I think there should be a little table centerpiece with a soft light on each table being used. Also maybe add a chicken or sausage item to the menu. Otherwise everything was almost perfect. We will be back and will tell everyone to go.
