Good home made food, lots of selections to choose from. Prices are good. Bus tour guide Roman suggested this for dinner as part of our Yosemite Tour.

Food is very delicious, got the regular burrito with grilled chicken. Great value and price - you can tell the folks working here care about making wonderful food. Thank you for the wonderful Mexican food stop, El Agave!

Best burrito I have tried in my life. And I really mean it. The portion side was quite generous. Besides while you wait, they serve you a complementary side of nachos for free.

We stop by oakdale on the way back from our Yosemite day tour and needed something quick for dinner and El Agave really delivers. The Taco was delicious and we got recommended the chicken dish as well which was massive and very tasty ! Highly recommend

We tried the chicken and al pastor tacos here, and it made for a good meal overall. While it wasn’t particularly outstanding, the tacos were decent enough to satisfy our cravings. A solid option if you're looking for a quick, satisfying bite.

The food was good and authentic but I guess I was bummed out that it didn't have a self-service salsa bar... I know I'm spoiled but I definitely got used to that. And when I ask them for some tomatilla sauce they just didn't have that. I ordered a regular burrito and it was pretty good, but I like the taste of pico de gallo and cilantro and to me that was missing. Parking is super simple. And if you're coming down from Yosemite or the mountains its right on your path.
