Nick Jonas Brings Rooftop Tequila Bar To Downtown’s Miami Worldcenter

Calling all Miami tequila aficionados! Jonas Brothers superstar Nick Jonas has teamed up with menswear designer John Varvatos to announce Villa One Tequila Gardens, a chic speakeasy-style tequila bar that is set to open on the rooftop of the Miami Worldcenter Jewel Box at 150 NE 8th Street in Downtown Miami.

Villa One Tequila Gardens restaurant and bar is designed by Mexico City-based KOM Studios and pays homage to the rich culture of Mexico. Throughout the 13,000 square foot indoor/outdoor restaurant and bar guests will find vibrant colors, Mexican textures and materials that are reminiscent of top destinations in Mexico such as Tulum, with views of the beautiful Downtown Miami skyline.

Inside the main dining room, the duo has planned a raw bar and tequila tasting room that offers more than 160 tequilas and mezcals curated by a tequila sommelier. The menu will embraces the colorful Baja-stye cuisine and cocktails. Some offerings such as the old fashioned, carajillo and canarito are prepared tableside.

The Villa One brand was formed in 2019 when Nick Jonas and John Varvatos introduced their successful tequila concept with Stoli Distillers. Since then, they have expanded the brand to include a fully-immersive experience with the Tequila Gardens outposts.  This will be the brand’s fourth location alongside Las Vegas, San Diego, and Los Angeles (opening soon).

“Villa One Tequila Gardens will create a unique entertainment destination within Miami Worldcenter with a special rooftop experience unlike anything else in downtown,” says Nitin Motwani, managing partner of Miami Worldcenter Associates. “Fusing Mexican-inspired cocktails and cuisine with modern Miami sophistication, guests will be transported to an exotic destination within Downtown’s dynamic urban core.”
