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.

The approach

Taco bars are what we do most. Sol Agave runs taco catering across Dana Point every week — backyards, corporate parks, wedding venues, and everything in between. Resort-adjacent guests expect a plated seafood option — chef-carved pulpo, ceviche flights, and a real dessert course anchor the menus we build here.

Whether the table is a 30-person backyard or a 300-guest reception at The Ritz-Carlton Laguna Niguel, the playbook is the same: real masa, live cooking, hot tacos.

  • 01

    Tortillas pressed in-house from real masa — not bagged from a distributor.

  • 02

    Six-plus protein options including carnitas, al pastor, carne asada, chicken, grilled shrimp, and a vegetarian build.

  • 03

    Salsas, escabeche, and garnishes made same-day — the salsa bar is the whole experience.

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.
