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.

    We live up past Sacramento but were in Modesto again for an event. We have been here twice before and returned again this evening. We return because the food is delicious, it is reasonably priced, and the staff is very friendly and efficient. Tonight was no different. My wife had the chicken marsala and I had the calamari steak. Both were new items for us as we wanted to try something different than our previous visits. Once again we found both well prepared and delicious. We have yet to find a favorite entree, as everything we have tasted has been great. We would highly recommend giving them a try and we will certainly be back when we visit Modesto again. Thanks Oscar for the great service!

    The service is always friendly and attentive, and they clearly care about making a connection with their guests. There are always friendly faces all around and the atmosphere in the main dining room is fantastic for a date night or gathering with friends.
