This unique taqueria opened its first location in Covington, Kentucky, in 2018; a wholly unique-to-the-Bluegrass concept of a tequila bar and a bourbon bar inside a Mexican eatery.

What sets Agave & Rye apart is the ingenuity and creative cultural fusions of these tacos. Shrimp & grits in a taco? Yep. Nashville hot chicken tacos? Absolutely. Bourbon-infused, bacon-topped tacos? Of course!

The sides at Agave & Rye are equally delicious. The Mexican street corn is a must!

Make sure to save room for dessert. The “Big Sis” Carrot Cake is face-sized, and (supposedly) big enough for two… if you decide to share, that is.

Of course, you could keep the Taco Tuesday vibes going, and order one of Agave & Rye’s epic dessert tacos. This is the Salty Pimp; a dulce de leche taco with caramel ice cream and spicy chocolate sauce in a cinnamon and sugar shell.
