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 Rancho Santa Margarita every week — backyards, corporate parks, wedding venues, and everything in between. Family reunions and HOA-block parties — mid-size taco bars with two proteins plus a build-your-own kids' station.

Whether the table is a 30-person backyard or a 300-guest reception at Rancho Santa Margarita Beach Club at the Lago, 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.

Rancho Santa Margarita — RSM to locals — is a canyon-mouth master-planned city set against the base of Saddleback Mountain, with the Cleveland National Forest and Trabuco Canyon opening at its northeast edge. The RSM Lake, or Lago Santa Margarita, is a 12-acre man-made lake ringed by the private Beach Club that anchors resident life with paddleboarding, a heated pool, and the summer Friday-night concert series. Central Park at the base of Empresa hosts the amphitheater, farmers market, and the annual RSM 4th of July celebration. The Bell Tower Community Center is the civic core and the city's largest indoor event space. Trailheads for Trabuco Canyon, Holy Jim Falls, and the Santiago Peak fire road all sit within a ten-minute drive up Trabuco Creek Road — Holy Jim is the classic 6.5-mile out-and-back to a hidden waterfall, and Santiago Peak at 5,689 feet is the tallest point in Orange County. Dove Canyon and Coto de Caza sit inside the same canyon system with their own private clubs. Saddleback Church is a five-minute drive down Antonio Parkway. There is no Metrolink; OCTA route 89 covers Santa Margarita Parkway to Mission Viejo Metrolink. Sol Agave caters RSM Beach Club weddings (residents-only access), Bell Tower quinceañeras, and Coto and Dove Canyon backyard parties on the surrounding hillside estates.
