A new, upscale Mexican restaurant and tequila bar will open soon near Windermere.

Signage is now up for Jag Cantina, which will open in the building formerly occupied by Black Rock Bar & Grill, 8965 Conroy Windermere Road, Orlando.

According to its website, Jag Cantina will offer a “unique dining experience, where nature’s bounty meets Mexican culinary tradition.”

The restaurant will serve handcrafted cocktails and feature a tableside tequila experience. The kitchen menu will feature both traditional favorites as well as signature dishes.

The restaurant takes its name from the jaguar, a symbol of strength and bravery in Mayan, Olmec and Aztec cultures.

Michigan-based Black Rock Bar & Grill opened in the space in May 2016 and closed in December 2024.
