Jaguar Room

"*Delayed post from Jan '25. Came here to start the night before heading to the full restaurant next door at Tacolina. I loved the speakeasy vibe of the place, with a single red light outside signaling the entrance. You can park in the lot safely btw! From the moment you walk in, it feels like you've time travelled into a swanky 70's disco lounge, with jaguar print on the walls, red leather booths and a disco ball spinning in the corner. The music is perfect for swing dancing and the floor is smooth enough to do so too. The bartender was very knowledgeable about their drink options and made great conversation. Note their bathroom is the same as the restaurant's, so you'll need to travel through the main dining room to get there. The menu is lengthy and standardly priced for LA with $9-$12 beers and $15-17 mixed drinks. We ordered the Austin Eastciders Pineapple, which reminded me of an alcoholic Jupiña, and and the Guava Daiquiri topped with a slice of radish. I recommend both a they were a puckery, yet sweet."

Love the ambiance. Such a great bar! Saturdays are packed but definitely worth to go!

I was very excited to check out this spot and was completely underwhelmed by the spot. It was much smaller than I expected to begin with. Ordered the "espresso martini" drink on the menu. That was literally the name, and I was excited because it was made with tequila which I usually prefer. We also ordered a beer and called it a day. I received my cocktail but to my surprise it was a regular espresso martini. I went to mention this to the bartender and explained that I thought it was the espresso martini cocktail. And then he mentioned how it was prebatched but they were out of it. For such a small spot I would expect all hand made cocktails, not prebatched cocktails. And if they were out of them, I would have expected the bartender to give that update or ask which espresso martini was preferred. He agreed to make me another one with tequila, but then proceeded to give it to me in a small plastic cup. I thought it was weird but overall I was not impressed. Then I saw it's literally connected to tacolina and proceeded to just go there instead. There was no food offered in Jaguar Moon so I just gave it a 3 rating for that category.

The CUTEST bar hidden in Silverlake! You would never know it’s there. You enter through a black door in the CCA parking lot and it’s like a leopard haven. Really good (and strong) drinks, disco ball, good music, etc. love love love.

the aesthetic was super cute however, the bar tender was pretty rude like i understand it was close to closing but the whole approach was rude for no reason & i got a paloma cocktail and it tasted horrible idkkk i have mixed feelings

This is literally the cutest bar I've ever seen. Leopard upholstered walls? Golden disco ball? GTFO

Cute spot. Good drinks and the bartenders were down to earth and friendly.

Pretty cool little speakeasy that has two ways to get to…. You can either go through tacolina or go to their door with the red light on…

After a delightful meal at Tacolina, we popped into The Jaguar Room to check it out. The entrance is near the kitchen from the restaurant or via the parking lot next door (look for a red light and a black door). The drink menu features creative cocktails prepared with spirits produced in Mexico and contain creative additions such as fragrant pandan (Jaguar Paw) and Turkish tobacco bitters (Tobacco Old Fashioned). Upscale bar snacks are also available in case you want something to munch on. The décor of this cozy speakeasy Is campy chic - complete with gold accents, animal prints, and red banquettes. The dim lighting emits a sultry vibe that invites you to enjoy the welcoming atmosphere, and the music sets the tone for a fun night. This is a place to gather with friends or bring a date and enjoy skillfully prepared drinks that are beautifully presented. The bartenders are friendly and will make you feel at home. *Movie Nights every Wednesday 8 pm - Free Churro Popcorn *Available for private events. *Metered street parking. Free after 8 pm

PARKING: There's a parking lot out front but it's unclear whether patrons can park there, so park at your own risk. There's also street parking on the Main Street but gets very crowded on weekends. Drinks: most cocktails range from $16-20 they also offer beers and wine by the glass. Good selection of both. Drinks weren't exceptional but they were nicely poured. Bartenders were also very patient and kind, they made sure people were served in order. Ambiance: very small seating area, at most 7-10 small tables. We visited on Friday evening around 10 pm and it was very full (~40 people). People mainly stand around making it difficult to move. Music was jazzy/back ground type music.

A new hidden gem! Tucked away inside an unassuming shopping plaza on Sunset Blvd. with free parking, there is no signage, just a red light and a black door. We found ourselves in a fascinating space. The bartenders were friendly and welcomed all questions! We ordered the Salty Bast*rd with mezcal, honey, and cynar and the Guava Daiquiri with blanco tequila, guava, pineapple, cucumber, lime, and absinthe for drinks. Both drinks were made well and on the stronger-tasting side while balanced. For snacks, we got the house olives and kettle chips seasoned with chili and lime. The house olives were pickled and tasted delicious. They were sweet and had a little kick. The kettle chips were crunchy and seasoned well. The ambiance was perfect. The lighting was dim enough for us to converse without the music tuning us out, and the decor made sense. The music selection was top-notch. We saw folks entering from the other side of the bar connected to Tacolina, a Baja-style Mexican restaurant. Overall, we enjoyed ourselves and will be coming back!

Went to check out this spot that just had opened and was pleasantly surprised. We came early around 6, and most of the bar was booked out for an event so there was not much seating. The bar room itself is pretty small, it's super cute and aesthetic inside but there is very limited seating and not a lot of standing room either. The specialty cocktail list is pretty small but they have some unique drinks, not as pricey as I expected but still around 17-20 each.

Tried to go on a Friday night and it was just too busy, nowhere to sit. The ambiance was great it was just small. I also thought it was going to be more separate than tacolina but it was like really attached to the restaurant. They had similar cocktails, with a few extra offerings at Jaguar room. Definitely a cute place to go on a weekday or on a date. Also not much seating for groups of people, mainly tables for two.

Great music and great drinks. The bartender was nice and friendly. I recommend their Guava drink.

Silver Lake needs more places Ike this. Intimate, stylish, low lit rooms where cocktails are made with great care. Long may it remain.
