Agustin Mexican Food

Restaurant Mexican restaurant

👍👍 From my mid teens until my mid 30s, I ate at least twice a week at a small family owned Mexican restaurant in Santa Ana. When they finally closed their doors to retire, I was heartbroken. Now I live in SJC. For the last 40 years, I have tried to find their equal. I accidently stumbled upon Agustin’s... People often mention Mexican,

    This family owned and operated with love authentic Mexican food is just awesome!! The slow cooked shredded beef is amazing with its rich flavor and tender texture. The chicken is delicious! The portions are generous and the service is top notch. You are surrounded by antique decor, from old photos and relics from the glory days of San Juan Capistrano. If you are looking for delicious authentic Mexican food with great service and a unique and memorable environment, Agustin’s is you spot.

    From my mid teens until my mid 30s, I ate at least twice a week at a small family owned Mexican restaurant in Santa Ana. When they finally closed their doors to retire, I was heartbroken. Now I live in SJC. For the last 40 years, I have tried to find their equal. I accidently stumbled upon Agustin’s online and decided to give them a try. Wow! The best Mexican food I’ve had in 40 years. I’ve eaten there for the last three days. My husband and I have tried a verde pork burrito, chile relleno, cheese enchilada, beef taquitos, fish tacos, a beef taco, a tamal and a machaca burrito. They were all excellent. Even the rice and beans, which are usually tasteless in other restaurants, were very good. The service was gracious and friendly. The portions were quite generous. I’ve tried every Mexican food restaurant in my area. This is my new home. Thank you, Agustin’s. P.S. I just read the other reviews. No, It’s not fancy. This is not low budget Mexican food, this is quality and item v item it beats the heck out of Ricardo’s.

    Lovely family owned restaurant. The food was delicious. Nice portions. Returning with friends soon! First time we went the women we’re not very welcoming, Who worked there. This time it was totally different. A lovely woman serving the food was so helpful and kind and the young gentleman taking our order was very busy and yet he was very personal and so pleasant!!! Made for a beautiful evening. 🍃🌸🍃

    My mom took me here, it was 1/3 mile from her house. Had the shredded beef burrito plate. I hadn't tasted shredded beef like that since 40 years ago in Tijuana! I will be going there every time I visit mom. Excellent!

    On my way home from hospital i decided to stop here for lunch. The place was totally empty and i wasn’t sure it was open. Owner was sitting at a table and was obviously irritated to have to move to counter to take my order. I asked a couple questions about the menu and apparently took too long. Before I finished ordering a taco and enchilada he cut me off and said for me to go somewhere else. First time I’ve ever been denied service. I’m still not sure why this guy was so irritated. No wonder this place was empty. I promptly went just down the street to Fernando’s where I was graciously served a great Mexican lunch! We don’t need arrogant angry restaurant owners like this in our city. I suggest you and your friends forget this place!!

    We ordered and did not get a receipt, just gave the name. We waited and waited, people that came 15 min after us got their order. Finally went to the person at the counter. They told me you already picked up. I said no, we are waiting. I was told again no it is already gone. I went to the cashier that took my order, showed him my google pay info he looked at me and said do u have a receipt. I said u did not give me one. He looked on the pay computer and found my order. We waited another 10 min. So the food is fantastic, but the delivery to the customer system is not good. Make sure u ask for a receipt

    So good! Stopped after a hike in the San Juan Mountains. Had the “Grande Burritto” with chicken. Husband had the steak. HUGE burrito. We were starving and only at 1/2. Super cute decor. Family-owned. Highly recommend.
