Villa One Tequila Gardens Set To Open In Gaslamp In Partnership With Nick Jonas & John Varvatos

Villa One™ Tequila Gardens, the highly-anticipated dining experience in partnership with Nick Jonas and John Varvatos, is set to open its doors to guests on Wednesday, September 21st.

The rooftop destination will feature Villa One craft cocktails, as well as an extensive list of top tequila selections, modern Mexican fare, and sweeping views of downtown San Diego.

“I’m so excited to bring the Villa One vision and ethos to life with the Villa One Tequila Gardens,” shares Villa One co-founder, John Varvatos.

“When creating the tequila with my good friend and business partner, Nick Jonas, we always envisioned our fans being able to experience the brand as a lifestyle, beyond the liquid, and the Tequila Gardens does just that.”

Following the opening in San Diego, Villa One Tequila Gardens will soon expand throughout the United States with openings in Los Angeles, Miami, Las Vegas, and New York City in the upcoming year.

“Life as it Should Be™”

Villa One Tequila Gardens embraces the sentiments that embody Villa One Tequila – experiencing “Life as it Should Be™” with friends old and new.

The space is designed for creating memories, transporting guests to Mexico with luxurious textiles, shades of green inspired by agave fields, and accent walls with neon signs.

With more than 5,000 square feet of open-air seating surrounded by stunning views of downtown San Diego and the Coronado Bridge, Villa One Tequila Gardens will provide a picturesque setting to dine and lounge with patio-style seating for 110, a communal table for socializing, firepits, and an intimate 14-seat bar all accented by the San Diego skyline.

Villa One Tequila Gardens will also set the mood for late-night energy, offering bottle service packages and hosting live DJs.

Villa One Tequila Garden libations to watch out for

Villa One Tequila Gardens has more than 160 premium tequilas and mezcals – enough to make every visit a one-of-a-kind experience.

There is also a wide list of margaritas. For those who can’t decide on one, they can opt for a margarita flight that features multiple smaller-sized drinks served side-by-side or choose from a curated wine list and local craft beer.

Signature drinks include the V1, the signature Villa One™ margarita made with fresh lime juice, prickly pear puree, house-infused castile rose simple syrup, Crème de Violette, and Villa One tequila topped with lavender essence and black volcanic rock salt; as well as Carajillos, an Old Fashioned, V1 Manhattan margaritas, and much more.

And prepare to be wowed by the Cantarito, the restaurant’s specialty cocktail, made tableside with Villa One Tequila, fresh, hand-squeezed lemon, lime, orange, and grapefruit juices, and served in a ceramic “jarrito” vessel.

Menu highlights

A menu of fresh, flavorful Mexican cuisine designed for sharing includes fresh seafood ceviches, aguachiles, tostadas, tacos, Mexican-inspired sushi rolls, and more.

Signature dishes include the Green and Red Aguachiles; Prime Ribeye grilled on a josper oven; Birria, Salmon, Lobster and Shrimp Machaca Tacos; the Poblano Roll filled with beef chorizo, cream cheese, jalapeño peppers, and avocado topped with pico de gallo and roasted poblano crèma, and more.
