A Flavorful Finale to a Beautiful Weekend – Agave & Rye, Cleveland, OH
After an unforgettable weekend at the Lithuanian Song Festival in Cleveland, our stomachs reminded us it was time to eat—and fast. With a long drive back to New Jersey ahead of us, we needed something quick but satisfying. That’s when we discovered Agave & Rye, a spot that had great reviews and a creative taco menu that caught our attention.
Though we wished we had time to sit and soak in the atmosphere of the restaurant, we had to settle for takeout. Still, the experience didn’t disappoint.
Since it was our first time, we weren’t quite sure what to get—so we played it safe and went with variety:
Taco Flight (3) x4
Chips & Queso
Lemonade
Buzz Box
As I waited, Yavonne, one of the staff members, came over to let me know they were out of lemonade but could offer virgin margaritas instead—made in-house with their own mix. It sounded fun and refreshing, so I said yes. Not only was it a great call, but Yavonne even helped me carry our order to the car, where my wife and kids were waiting. Talk about service!
The food? Absolutely out of this world. These were hands-down some of the best tacos we’ve ever had. Bold flavors, creative combos, fresh ingredients—and bonus: they offer gluten-free taco options!
The virgin margaritas were a hit with everyone, especially the kids. It turned out to be a highlight of the trip 😄 Yvonne said they make their own margarita mix and it was really good, wishing I could have had a real margarita but it was refreshing especially went well with the tacos.
If you’re ever in Cleveland and even remotely hungry, Agave & Rye is a must-visit. Whether you dine in or take out, you're in for something special.
