Introducing Daisy Margarita Bar: A Vibrant New Destination in Sherman Oaks

Nestled in the heart of Sherman Oaks, Los Angeles, Daisy Margarita Bar has made its grand entrance. This exciting new restaurant and bar offers a unique dining experience that blends rustic south-of-the-border charm with modern flair.

Located at 14633 Ventura Blvd, CA 91403, Daisy Margarita Bar is the brainchild of California-based interior designer Alexa Nafisi-Movaghar of Adean Studios. The ground-floor space evokes a vaquero (cowboy)-style tavern, with wooden-plank walls adorned with Mexican artwork, taxidermy, neon, and barn finds. The main room features a colourful custom-built jukebox, where guests are given tokens with their first drink of the night to choose a classic Mexican tune.

The restaurant's inspiration lies in rustic, south-of-the-border saloons, complete with a long bar and large jars of mezcal. The speakeasy upstairs, known as Gilbert Perez Bar, is dedicated to Mexican rum. Operated by Gilbert Perez, the speakeasy features a rotating tropical motif and 'mad scientist' devices for drinks that take several days to perfect.

Daisy Margarita Bar's menu is a delightful fusion of traditional and innovative dishes. Small plates include yellowfin tostada and scallop aguachile verde. Shareable mains offer a variety of options, such as branzino asado, lamb shank with frijoles puercos, and flour tortilla tacos filled with pork and green apple slaw or grilled octopus.

For those with a sweet tooth, desserts are inventive and tantalizing. Flan with courgette flower, caramel popcorn, and popcorn foam, and pan de elote heirloom corn cake topped with banana ice cream are just a few examples of the creative treats on offer.

Two signature cocktails at Daisy Margarita Bar are the Salsa Verde Margarita and the Frozen Guacamole Margarita. These unique concoctions are sure to delight and surprise.

Daisy Margarita Bar is a sister concept to the award-winning Mรญrate in Los Feliz, promising the same high-quality dining experience in a new and exciting location. Whether you're looking for a casual dinner, a night out with friends, or a unique cocktail experience, Daisy Margarita Bar is the perfect destination.

So, if you find yourself in Sherman Oaks, be sure to stop by Daisy Margarita Bar. With its warm atmosphere, delicious food, and innovative cocktails, it's a dining experience you won't want to miss.
