This place is a perfect mix of upscale lounge and playful hangout spot. They have bowling lanes, darts, foosball, shuffleboard, board games, and karaoke room. The place is huge and great for big social gatherings. I had high hopes when I first got inside but got quite disappointed with the food. I wanted to love the Mushroom Al Pastor tacos, but they're too salty. I found myself reaching for water after almost every bite. I asked for more limes and the ones I got seemed to have been sitting on the bar counter for a while, not freshly cut at all. The menu says it's supposed to have cilantro and charred pineapple salsa. Interesting, I didn't taste any. My friend who opted for the Chips and Salsa said that wasn't good either. Too bad! read more

I was so excited to try out what looked to be a fun place for a group outing on a Sunday early evening. I regret that I was very disappointed in the food and the service. The ambience with the bowling and other games was great but no staff person helped us understand or introduced the options. Also several areas were corded off for two private events. The drink wall was almost empty, the fountain sodas were inoperable and the kitchen was closing early on a Sunday night. The staff also used tape to cover 1/4 of the menu items as unavailable. Pagers for food did not work. It was as if the restaurant had just opened and was experiencing new location jitters. Food was ok, drinks were marginal and service poor. I won't return. read more

I celebrated my 40th birthday here this afternoon in the private Karaoke room. I had my heart set on visiting Jaguar for sometime now. Upon arrival at 4:00 p.m. we met with a woman at the services counter who informed me that there is 1 karaoke room that was currently being occupied for a large party. We decided to grab drinks, play darts and take a look at the boxed games they offer for free. The gentleman who was bartending was very kind and friendly, he wished me a happy birthday and I decided to order the cocktail of the day the cucumber sling with Tito's Vodka. I decided against the drinks on tap for self pour that charge by the ounce. The value for drinks here isn't worth it. Especially for the small glasses they're served in. As soon as the karaoke room was free, I alerted the service attendant, who seemed overwhelmingly busy and the place seemed understaffed. She informed me that the mics ran by batteries and a iPad operated the karaoke system that required charging with a wall cable. This was the one thing I wanted to enjoy with friends for my special day here, so I was adamant about requesting the room. I paid $45 for the hour, as weekends are considered Peak Hours. The selection of songs available was great and the iPad system was so easy to use once she explained everything. We experienced 0 technical difficulties. We had a blast ! The private Karaoke room is something that is offered a lot in New York City but I have yet to find many in Raleigh. I enjoy the fact Jaguar is the only " eatertainment" center in the area and how original what they offer is. I wish they offered more karaoke rooms in this building. It's so spacious but it seems to be missing more activities. I didn't have an interest in the duck pin bowling or pool. What I appreciated about Jaguar Bolera, is how they don't try to tag on extra service or tips to your tab. The place is also immaculately clean !!!!!! The drinks do need work and customer service could be better. More staff is needed on the floor so that one person doesn't become inundated with tasks. read more

Finally got a chance to check out Jaguar and we had soo much fun. It was a date night and we wanted to go bowling. We didn't know that it wasn't traditional bowling but it didn't matter we had a ball. We went on a Thursday evening so it wasn't crowded at all which we loved. The check in process with the bracelets is genius and makes it so easy. The drinks were also really good, who knew a cocktail coming from a tap could taste like it was made by a bartender. We had already eaten so only got some fries and had to wait a little it wasn't long at all but the manager was so apologetic and gave us a gift card as if I needed one to return Not lol..I love that there's board games and a karaoke room. The staff were so helpful and friendly the entire evening, we can't wait to return. 10 out of 10 would recommend... read more

If you're looking for something different to do this spot is for you! The staff is so nice and breaks everything down for you. The self pouring station is so unique! You get a wrist band and each drink is clearly labeled. The price is listed also so you know how much money you're spending. They have so much to do here. Darts, bowling, game boards and a karaoke room! Everything is first come first serve. The space is huge and has an upstairs! The food is cool but the salsa you get with the chips is gross! read more

I attended a networking/Friendsgiving event at the location. The event was great - so review is about the establishment. The food they served was okay - the Mac and Cheese was burnt. I will say they did label the food regarding the majority food allergies - so that was good. They weren't very clear about how the beverages were to be obtained and when we asked the employee just "pointed" to where we should go - never said a word. Odd. Speaking of many of the employees really didn't speak - it was odd. Like you ask a question and they would be very short or like before point - who does that?! The music was good and LOUD - it was sometimes hard to hear the person right across from you. Where we were seated it was cold. Not sure if that was because we were near the doors but it wasn't comfortable sitting there without your coat on. Parking was confusing and how to enter was just as confusing from the parking deck lol there were several people in the parking deck wondering around looking for how to get to the entrance. read more

I've been to Jaguar twice, both for Meetup events. And the prices will add up quickly on you, especially if you're drinking from the taps. Two tacos, three drinks (don't forget the included 12% service charge), just over $50. The chicken taco was forgettable, the brisket taco was better. It had some slaw for the crunch on top, a little bit of avocado, a BBQ sort of glaze. Kind of a southern/Mexican fusion. The staff was hit or miss, some of them were friendly and engaging and a few just couldn't bother to smile. I'm sorry, but if you're working at a place like this, trying to create a fun, welcoming atmosphere is vital and a smile goes a long ways towards that. To their credit, the venue is kept very well, it's clean. I like the variety of options like darts, duckpin bowling, cornhole, and foosball. But for the price, it just isn't a place I'd come on my own. read more

My wife and I went here for a date night and it was a lot of fun. The smoked wings were wonderful! And I enjoyed the tacos as well. My wife also liked her drinks. But the place was not very busy for a Friday night. There were also lots of things broken. For example, the self serve soda machine was broken as well as the self serve beer in one section. I want this place to succeed but they're trying to do too much at times . read more

What a fun new spot!! I will say this place is loud (mostly because of the bowling), so just be prepared for that. We went in with a large group and sat down to have dinner first. Everything is first come first serve, they don't take reservations ahead of time. When we arrived for dinner, we put our name on the waitlist for bowling since that was on an hour wait. You order food at the counter and then they bring it out. The dry rub smoked wings were probably my favorite, super tasty. Folks also enjoyed their tacos and the guac. The churros are amazing, highly recommend them, they come with a cinnamon chocolate. The other dessert come out of their dessert vending machine which was neat. Bowling was also a lot of fun. It's suck pin and you can wear your own shoes (don't need to use bowling shoes). Overall something different and fun to do. I loved the decor, it's fun bright and colorful! The easiest way to access the building is to park in the deck and walk over. They are in the far corner of Iron Works. read more

This place is super unique for Raleigh and will do good just based off that. It's also designed really well and super modern and trendy on the inside. It's a large space with bowling, a board game room, darts, a karaoke room, drinks on tap, food, and more. It is also pink and purple cheetah themed so very cute for pictures. There are not too many bowling alleys so you will have to reserve it and plan ahead for your night here. Unfortunately we came here during two work parties who had it booked all day. Also- their bowling is different than the regular alley with small pins and balls. The drinks on tap range from the usual beer to wine and cocktails. It was cool to be able to get a bracelet connected to your card that you can tap to the screen and have it charge your card automatically. However, the cocktails were just not good. I think we had about 5 small drinks and got charged around $90. If they were great drinks I would've been happier with it but the drinks tasted cheap and watered down. There is only one karaoke room and that was also reserved for the hour so we threw some darts then went to the game room where we grabbed two board games to play and ordered food. The food was awful. I thought it was supposed to be a great dining experience but both the chicken quesadilla and overcooked chicken wings completely missed the mark- I would rate both a 3/10. I think a place with so many drinks and games NEEDS great food, or else people will leave looking for food. We left hungry and did eat somewhere else after. Even if they would just stick to great bar bites people would be happy. I have heard others say they thought the food was not good either and I just would not recommend it which is very unfortunate. I think this place can grow into something fantastic! read more

We wanted to love this place so badly since we are huge Top Chef fans and enjoyed watching Manny. We had heard great things about their recent Top Chef dinner and after party, and am guessing we would have loved those events. Since we couldn't attend those, we were excited to try it out this Saturday afternoon for lunch. Like: greeted at door by a friendly Gal who told us the lay of the land. Dislike: that it's complicated enough that someone has to explain it to you. Dislike: discovered they only serve brunch menu until 3pm. They should make that clear on their website cause the regular menu is what enticed us in on a Saturday for lunch. Like: Gals at counter were nice. They even let us get a wrist band for drinks there after ordering our food, so we didn't have to go elsewhere, which is what we had originally been told to do. Neutral: the 18% automatic service charge. I had thankfully read reviews about it and knew to expect it. Have no problem paying service charges even when we are getting our own utensils, drinks, and ordering at a counter. Like: food is brought to you. Like: Wings good. Juicy. Zesty sauce. Husband said brisket sandwich was good. Dislike: The $18 sandwich came with nothing on the side. And wasn't exactly huge. Not enough for a meal. Same with the wings. I usually can't eat a whole order of wings, but I ate all 7 pieces and felt like they couldn't have been chintzier with the celery. Liked that they shaved the celery, but come on, maybe it was half a stalk's worth? Big dislike: We had just paid $45.98 for these two items and both of us were not even full. Note, we have zero problem paying higher prices when they are warranted (see lots of previous reviews), but come on, throw in a bag of chips, a cup of slaw, something with that sandwich! How about a whole stalk of celery and maybe a carrot stick with the $18 wings? Bigger dislike: (bordering on hate): the drink system. We have been to multiple places over the years with the pour your own system, but the system they are using here is flat out awful. Other establishments will have you pay a certain amount and then you pour what you want up to that amount. Here you give them a credit card, get a wrist band and have to trust them. Thought I'd have a glass of wine. Found a chardonnay that I've had in the past. Saw it was $2.00 an ounce, which sounded reasonable. Grabbed the same size glass I use at home, started to pour and literally a trickle came out. No big deal, but how do I know if I got charged for a full ounce or what? Went back to the counter and one of the gals checked my band and assured me I hadn't been charged for it and pointed to the drinks on the other side. Okay, went over there, and poured what I would have expected to be five ounces and looked up and it said EIGHT ounces. Uh, no. At this point there were lots of people at the counter so I just sucked it up. Husband went for beer and came back with mostly foam. HATE: Time to leave. Still hungry. Have spent $46 on food and "service". And have no idea what exactly our card will be charged for the glass of wine and beer foam. Went to counter to ask about cashing out. Well, you don't do that there. Told we would be cashed out in 24 hours. But she could cut my band off. Okay...thanks. It's been over 24 hours and I have still not gotten a receipt about the drink charges via email. They had sent an immediate receipt for the food, so I know they are capable of doing so. Went online to my credit card and discovered the charge for our drinks was $25.37. Just for my own sanity I went home and used a measuring cup to measure 8 ounces of liquid in the same size glass and I know for a fact that's not what I poured. Nitpicking: Only one soap dispenser and one dryer were working in the women's room. Not a big deal, but it's a new place so why aren't both working? Overall we both left feeling ripped off. Hate that! The two things we did eat were good, but not any better than what we could get elsewhere with full service. I get that restaurants need to come up with new concepts that have less staff to pay, but the weird thing here is there appeared to be plenty of staff around. Games: the sign said darts, board games and cards are free. Maybe we should have played something to feel better about having spent over $70 for one sandwich, some wings, a glass of wine and a glass of beer foam. read more

Giving an extra star because the decor and music are pretty good and that's about where it ends. We read the honest reviews and definitely agree with not being worth it. We went for a bday thing so not our choice. We did take the advice and not open a drink tab. First we waited way too long to order as there was a larger party ahead of us and they had one person on the register. Once we finally ordered there was nothing special about the exchange. The nicest person there was the food runner. I got the brisket taquitos and presentation was actually surprisingly good then you took a bite. Flavor profile is so strange and hella salty. Meat felt old and tough also. Didn't even bother finishing it. The amount of "games" is so minimal so be ready to wait for a long time to get to do anything. We ended up leaving early and definitely would never go back. Taco Bell has 100% better tasting food. Don't waist your money people. read more

Limited drink options to mostly wine and beer; not that many cocktail options. Drinks are slightly over priced as well. read more

Jaguar Bolera - Bowling Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

Jaguar Bolera is now open at Raleigh Iron Works! This restaurant/bar/gaming establishment defines itself as "eatertainment" and we get the first location in the country! This huge space is decked out in oranges, pinks, and greens making for a fun and funky space, they spent a LOT of money outfitting Jaguar Bolera. Do some duckpin bowling, play some darts or foosball or sing your heart out in their karaoke room. There are tons of things to do here and enjoy an adult beverage at one of their self-serve bars to keep the action flowing. The menu is "Mexican with a Southern accent" and offers up shareables, apps, tacos, sandwiches and entrees. All I can say is I've never seen anything quite like Jaguar Bolera so you should check it out! Probably not for everyone but if it is, you're gonna love it! read more

I wanted to try this place, since it is new. I went with some friends, and we got some food and drinks. I got the pork burnt ends and the chips and salsa. I got the Oaxaca salsa, which was ok. It's different from your typical salsa. The chips were good though. The burnt ends were very tasty, but it seemed expensive for the amount I got. One of the employees helped me figure out how to scan my wristband to get a drink. I tried the orange mezcal margarita, which was good. They have some other things you can add to your drink, and I added an orange. I didn't think it came out too fast, but I was trying to be very careful about pouring it. I've heard from others that the beer comes out with a lot of foam, so something to be wary of. We didn't play any games, but I would be interested to try some. I liked the atmosphere, and it wasn't super crowded on a Thursday night at 7 pm. The main reason I'm only giving 3 stars is the 18% automatic surcharge to the bill when you aren't being served. You're pouring your own drinks. The food is brought to you, but that's it. It's already pricey compared to other restaurants, so it doesn't make sense. It's also deceptive because the sign just says a service charge is included by the registers. It doesn't say the amount and doesn't say how that is on top of your bill. read more

I had a decent experience at Jaguar Bolera. The staff at the wristband station provided clear explanations of how things worked. I liked the self-serve drink concept that's gaining popularity. The drinks were fresh and delicious, especially the Moscow mule and margarita. The wings and chorizo hush puppies were also good. However, there was an issue with one of the drink dispensers; it overcharged my friend and kept running, even after their glass was full. Also, the temperature in the venue was uncomfortably warm, and it felt like the AC needed adjusting. Overall, some improvements would've made my experience better. For what is offered here I think I'd whether hang out on my side of town. I wasn't all that impressed with this space. read more

I'm shocked that this place doesn't have 5 stars on Yelp. Here's my effort to change that. I love taking my friends here because it has such a unique atmosphere. Not to mention how quiet it is on weekdays/weeknights. The food is absolutely amazing, and it comes FAST. Four people ordered cooked meals that arrived in less than 10 minutes. The staff are always friendly and willing to talk. There are board games available to play at no charge and curiosities around every corner. If you visit, show them some love and let's get these good people 5 stars! read more

Extremely underwhelmed with this place although I will say that we were only here for lunch -- not to play games or drink beer. You order from the counter instead of your table. Gratuity is automatically applied. I just ordered the catfish tacos and a tap water but noticed the guy charged me $4 for a Coke! Reminded him that I did not order a soft drink. He stated that the only way to give me a glass to get tap water was to charge for a beverage. I told him nevermind, I had a water bottle in my purse. Catfish tacos were dry and tasteless. Coworker ordered the Spanglish salad which looked good. Tried another's guacamole which tasted really fresh. Would not come here to eat again but maybe to drink. Looks like they have many beer taps. read more

I have been going every few months since they opened, and I think they have an identity problem. There are often so many kids running around the space - we have seen a six year old's birthday party there - that it feels like a kind of wild, family fun place. If that's what they're going for, then they should update the menu and non-alcoholic options, and own that. But if they want to be an adult space, they really need to have hours when it's adult-only and own that. The mixture of the two is odd, and it feels like the two vibes are dueling. The other thing that really bugs me is that the whole novel concept of this place is the serve-yourself-drinks aspect. There was no bartender and therefore no tipping required (on drinks) since you were your own bartender. Now they have staff at the taps to pour your cocktail drinks because they got in trouble with the liquor board (or something like that) for people serving their own cocktails. So, it's now awkward to be up at the drink area with supervision. Then you're left with the awkward tip or no-tip situation too. The pre-mixed cocktails are also WAY overpriced. I was warned off the food during our first visit, so I can't speak to the food experience. We do love the private karaoke room with a group; although, the last time we went, we had kids annoying us (pressing against/pounding the glass) from outside the interior windows while we were trying to have fun inside the room. It can be fun, but just all a little bit awkward now. read more

Food is pretty mediocre here, but it's a fun spot for a group to hang out! Endless amount of activities and games, and the pour wall is an entertaining way to get your drinks. Just get food elsewhere in Ironworks before coming! read more

Jaguar Bolera is located in Raleigh Iron Works. My friends and I stopped in to play a few games and grab beers. We did not try the food. We played duckpin bowling for an hour then a game of foosball. They also have darts and a karaoke room. All activities, games, and entertainment are first come first serve. The beer, wine and cocktails are self pour with a wristband. I did not like this. It's way more expensive and depending on the beer it can be harder to pour. A few of the beers had also kicked and some just do not taste right. It was a fun time overall. read more

This place was pretty cool. Very large, good for groups. I didn't get a chance to try the bowling but several people I was with did and they had fun. The karaoke room was really fun, although the system was experiencing a few technical difficulties and we had to ask a staffer to help us on several occasions. They didn't seem to have many mocktail options, which was a bummer. We didn't try the food. read more

I would not recommend coming to this bar. The idea of it is good but it was poorly executed. The bowling and darts are poor quality and cheap. The karaoke room is tny.

Had an amazing time coming here for a work event. Not only that, Manny (Top Chef) was there when we visited, I was kinda star struck, what an incredible, down to earth guy, he spent 10 minutes talking to a couple of us about his experience on top chef, super cool! The self pour taps are great, lots of variety, although I wish there were more local craft beer options. Duck bowling was really fun, I've never duck bowled before. And the food for our event was delicious! Little fried chicken sliders that were loaded with flavor, some of the best ceviche I've ever had and delightfully rich and creamy Mac & cheese.

Jaguar Bolera - The self-serve drinks bar! Pay by the oz. - Bowling Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

What a fun place! We were so excited when we heard Chef Manny opened this spot in Raleigh after we watched him on Top Chef. Walking in, the decor is so fun and eccentric and bright! It is full of games, like pinball, darts, foosball, and board games. For drinks, you get a wristband and fill your own drinks - they range from beer to wine to cocktails, and even included 2 N/A mocktails! Food is ordered at the counter and delivered to wherever you are as the buzzer they give you has a tracker feature. The vibes were IMMACULATE and this would be such a fun place to go with a big group of friends. The food comes all at once, so we just ate everything together! My husband got the crispy chicken sandwich and I got the pork ribs al pastor. We shared the chorizo hushpuppies and a side of baked mac n cheese. The crispy chicken sandwich was huge! The telera bun and fried chicken were both perfectly crispy and the serrano mayo actually had some sweetness, which paired nicely with the tanginess from the slaw and pickles. The pork ribs also pastor fell RIGHT off the bone and had the best smokey flavor, which paired perfectly with the acidity of the lime-cured onions on top. It also came with a pineapple salsa, which looked like a salsa verde and I thought tasted like a green apple salsa - It was an interesting, unexpected flavor, which I didn't mind but also didn't necessarily love. The chorizo hushpuppies were a little bit of a letdown ONLY because the chorizo was nowhere to be found - we saw a bit of chorizo in one of the hushpuppies, but still couldn't taste it. That being said, they were some delicious hushpuppies - They were crisp but not dry like a lot of hushpuppies can get. The avocado crema it came with was good, but we liked the hushpuppies better on their own. The side of mac n cheese was a pretty solid mac - the crispy breadcrumbs on top were nice, but it was maybe missing something like some smokiness or spice to bring it to the next level. Overall this is such a fun place and we will definitely be back with a group! The cook on the meat here was spectacular and I will definitely be back for some brisket next time. *Crispy Chicken Sandwich: crispy chicken thigh, slaw, pickles, serrano mayo, telera bun *Pork Ribs Al Pastor: smoked spare ribs, pineapple salsa, lime cured onions, cilantro *Chorizo Hushpuppies: chorizo, avocado crema, cilantro, cotija *Baked Mac & Cheese read more

This place is aesthetically beautiful, but honestly it's a one and done for me. I ordered the brisket sandwich, Mac and cheese and cola for a total of $30.00 which included a 18 percent tip that is not optional. This isn't advertised anywhere before you make your purchase, which to me is a bit misleading. If I required to pay a tip, it should match the service. After we ate our food, our trays stayed in the table for a while. I ordered my cola and had to go to all the way up to the second floor to pour it because the one downstairs was broken. It is also very loud with all the games. Food and service was not. read more

It's hard for me to find the words, but simply, I did NOT like this place. Not for what I was looking for in a town that I don't know. I always use Yelp to direct me and, sadly, my tried and true method failed me. I was looking for a taco place near where we had met friends on a Monday afternoon. This was NOT IT. Come here for the fun and games and the free pouring alcohol, but for TACOS, or any food to be honest, find somewhere else. We ordered the chicharrones, smoked wings, and 3 orders of tacos. The chicharrones were so hard that they were inedible. Even the layers of sauces that were drizzled all over them didn't soften them up. The smoked wings were a little too smokey and kind of dry. It's like the kitchen staff doesn't eat anything they produce. Or maybe we were just too sober. I was confused upon entering the door. I've never seen a pour-your-own set up like this before. But I was here for tacos so I didn't ask about the other aspects of the business. We ordered at the counter as instructed. We specifically asked if there was cilantro on the tacos (one member of our party doesn't like the flavor), the person taking our order wasn't able to answer the simple question, so we just asked them to note that there was to be no cilantro on one of the fish tacos. pretty easy, right? Well, person working the counter, the answer is YES, Yes they put cilantro on every single taco as a garnish which is virtually impossible to pick off. Did I mention that the tacos are $14 for 2. For a $7 taco I want something that is great, these were just fair. So much potential, and so much disappointment. Again, this is not a venue that puts food first, or second, or third. Go somewhere else if good food is what you are looking for. Or spend $70+ just to toss it in the garbage, your choice. read more

This was such a fun find!!! The drinks are a very reasonable price, and the games are super fun as well. One thing I will say is it can get very crowded and there is a long wait for bowling, so prepare for that. However, it's definitely a great place to hang out and have fun with your friends, and it's very spacious! read more

Went there for the first time this past weekend. Crowds were good very cool setup they way they have everything. Unfortunately we need not eat the food it was a little over priced as well as the drinks. I had a 8 oz cocktail and it was 16 bucks. Not to mention the first cup that I grab had lip stains on it... Cool new please in Raleigh but probably my last time going. read more

Okay...the vibe of this place is absolutely amazing! It's huge, tons of seating, serve yourself Wine and beer, lots of games and the bowling is super fun! They charge you around $35 for $30 minutes for up to 6 people. Where they can improve...the food. The food is so overpriced for what you get. I think you have to figure out what to order here but do not ever get anything with the chicken...the chicken tacos were terrible...covered in some bbq sauce and totally store bought guacamole squirted on top. I'm sick just thinking about them. The chips were so salty they made my mouth hurt. The incredibly large pretzel, absolutely delish and the kids meals were a hit so that's a plus. We will return but maybe only for snacks and not a meal. Fun place! read more

This location offers a unique experience, especially when it comes to the food. The Lamb Taquitos were fried too hard in my opinion; I believe they would be improved by using a flour tortilla instead. Adding cilantro and onions on top, along with a cilantro lime vinaigrette for the cabbage salad, would enhance the overall dish as the cabbage salad alone was dry. My friends who ordered the Caesar Salads and added chicken and brisket really enjoyed their meals. My husband found the smoked brisket sandwich to be average; he mentioned that the sauce had a nice kick. However, the baked Mac 'n' cheese lacked flavor. The establishment was crowded with people, and all the games, including the dart game and three bowling lanes (two of which were reserved for parties that may not have shown up), had no time limits, making it challenging to participate. Seating was also a problem due to the high number of patrons and the limited available space, despite having cards and board games available for entertainment. Tips should be optional at a self service place! read more

Went here when it wasnt too busy. The place is huge and gorgeous but everything is super spread out and hard to find. The drink selection wasnt too great I wouldnt say it was worth the price of drinks/ activities. I will say the food was great I had the brisket tacos, the chips and salsa verde & the corn all of which was 10/10 honestly the food would be the only thing I come back for. I wish they had large tvs or more mini games. Experience was rather underwhelming tbh but I give the food 4 stars!! read more

Very crowded website doesn't tell you there is a special event. Only three duck pen lanes open. So wait is 2 1/2 hours. So we decided to eat ask about the cheese quesadilla if it was spicy and if there was anything besides cheese and was told no turns out, it had onions in it and a spicy green sauce squeezed on it. The brisket tacos had jalapeños. Was not expecting that. They tasted OK the jalapeños were mild. The hamburger also had something super spicy. Not everyone likes spicy, but apparently the chef does. Also we were told the tap sodas were "Coke" products. Then we arrived at the soda machine to find out they are "Maine Root". Requiring at the desk was told again that there is just a extra sugary Coke. This is not true. Pretty sure Coke would not be happy with that explanation. Tastes different. Should have exchanged it out for a bottled Coke. However the price is still $4 and not refillable. Did come during the week once with some ladies and did the duckpin bowling and we had a good time. This was not so successful. It is a very cute place, and the ambience is nice. I would not eat here again, but would come back with friends to drink and bowl. You should have a senior discount during the weekdays! read more

Jaguar's has the absolute best customer service you'd ever want to experience. I ordered the lamb taquitos, but I received them, and they were severely overcooked. I brought it to one of the staff members' attention, and they took care of it immediately. The staff personnel also told me that if the second batch wasn't to my liking, to feel free to let them know, and they would give me a full refund. One of the managers stopped by to check in on the situation. He apologized and made it right with an order of pork belly burnt ends on the house. It's also a great place for families and friends just hanging out. The atmosphere was very nice. Oh, and by the way, that serve yourself drink wall is not to shabby. But be careful it can easily get too pricey . Thanks, Jaguar's, for an awesome customer service experience! read more
