• Mexican • Modesto
Booked 12 times today
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.

    Nice atmosphere to bring a date. We went around 5 pm on a weekday and had a pleasant dinner on top of great conversation in a semi-private setting. Our server was attentive and another staff member refilled my water before I even asked. My only concern was that the gelato was half-melted when it was brought out to us. But overall it was a great experience and I would go again the next time I'm in Merced.

    Our group enjoyed the music of tenor ED BENES together with our collegues. Pizza (all three choices) was amazing, a wonderful paring with their wine. This is a family centered event which seated at about 5PM and ended by 9 PM. No Cover. We will refer this venue to friends and family for an amazing evening in the outdoors with great food and live music.
