“I love Sol Agave! The food is always fresh, the salsas are next level, and the staff treats you like family every single time. The birria tacos and street tacos are must-orders — I've brought half of San Clemente here at this point.”
“My wife and I had our Valentine's dinner here and it was incredible. The service was attentive, the drinks were strong, and the pulpo a las brasas was one of the best dishes we've had all year. Already planning our anniversary dinner here too.”
“Delicious food, honest to god some of the best Mexican food in south OC. The carnitas taco is unreal and the margaritas are perfect. Staff went out of their way to help with a large family group. Highly recommend.”

Sol Agave has been catering Mexican food across Dana Point, CA since our kitchen opened — every tray, taco bar, and plated dinner comes out of the same line that runs our dining room. Working harbor, five-diamond resorts, and a headland trail with whale watching — Dana Point catering swings from yacht-club polish to Doheny sand-and-taco.
Whether the table is in Capistrano Beach, Monarch Beach, or right in downtown Dana Point, the food is built and finished by the Sol Agave kitchen team — never handed to a third-party caterer.
Menus built around what Dana Point guests actually want — bright salsas, real masa, and plant-forward options that hold their own next to the carnitas.
Service that scales from a 20-person office lunch in Capistrano Beach to a 400-guest event at The Ritz-Carlton Laguna Niguel.
One coordinator from quote to clean-up — no handoffs, no surprises on event day.

Local knowledge
Dana Point wraps around a natural headland that shelters Dana Point Harbor, home to more than 2,400 boat slips, the Ocean Institute, the tall ship Pilgrim's original berth, and the Dana Wharf sport-fishing fleet. The city sits between Laguna Beach and San Clemente, with Monarch Beach, Capistrano Beach, and Niguel Shores as its main neighborhoods. Salt Creek Beach and Strand Beach anchor the resort corridor along Ritz-Carlton Drive, and the Salt Creek Beach Trail, Bluff Top Trail, and Headlands Conservation Park loop above them for coastal hikes with whale-watching turnouts every winter. The Waldorf Astoria Monarch Beach, The Ritz-Carlton Laguna Niguel, and Monarch Beach Golf Links form one of the densest luxury-resort clusters in Orange County. Doheny State Beach at the north end hosts the Doheny Blues Festival and the Ohana Festival, while the Festival of Whales runs harbor-wide every March. Public transit is limited to OCTA routes 1 and 91; the closest Metrolink and Amtrak stops are San Juan Capistrano and San Clemente Pier. Doheny to San Clemente is a five-minute drive off PCH, which keeps Sol Agave's Camino De Los Mares kitchen inside 15 minutes of every Dana Point venue. We cater harbor slip parties, headlands wedding receptions, Ocean Institute private buyouts, and taco bars for the surf and paddle communities up at Doheny and Salt Creek.
Two to four weeks is comfortable for most Dana Point events. Weekends in peak season fill up faster — reach out as soon as you have a date.
We regularly cover Capistrano Beach, Monarch Beach, Laguna Niguel, San Juan Capistrano, San Clemente, Niguel Shores, and we will travel further for full-service bookings. Mention the venue in the form and we will confirm.
Yes. Resort-adjacent guests expect a plated seafood option — chef-carved pulpo, ceviche flights, and a real dessert course anchor the menus we build here. Every package can be tailored to gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan, and most allergen-free needs.
Drop-off trays arrive set up with serving utensils. Taco bars include a live taquero. Full-service events come with chafers, plateware, and on-site staff for the duration.
