Jaguar Moon

The most incredible cocktail bar in Ventura! It’s gorgeous with bright colors, tropical vibes from chic wallpaper, jaguar mural, pink neon jaguar in a colorful hallway to lots of cozy seating areas. Love the cocktails. They focus on agave spirits but can make anything including fun boozy slushes. Staff are very knowledgeable and friendly. Cool music. Great spot for girls night out or a celebration. Killer happy hour because you can tell they use quality ingredients including fresh juicing every day. They share the space with Cocina Jaguar, who have the most incredible fresh Mexican food from ceviches to tacos etc. I’m obsessed with the chicken taco & pork tacos. Lots of gluten-free options. I’m celiac & can eat alot of the menu 🙌 ! My husband enjoys geeking out with the bar team and doing rare mezcal tastings. They said they are opening a large outdoor patio later this spring.

The food was excellent. The server working the walk up order for food was so helpful. The short rib taco and fried chicken taco were so good and gluten free (if on corn). I would say they are doing a terrible job marketing that their menu is allergen friendly. The drinks were full of ice. I would not recommend it as a cocktail bar until they start using 1/4 of the ice they are currently using.
