Join your ITL friends and colleagues for an unforgettable evening of great food, favorite beverages, and exciting games! Enjoy some friendly competition with bowling, darts, foosball, and more. Whether you’re in it to win it or just in for the fun, there’s something for everyone!

JAGUAR BOLERA is a restaurant dedicated to exceptional food and drink, but with a twist: a lineup of engaging games and experiences that make us a leader in the “Eatertainment” industry. The craft beverage program offers a memorable selection of specialty cocktails, local craft beers, signature non-alcoholic drinks, and an array of wines to suit any palate. Our gaming options cover everything from duckpin bowling, shuffleboard, and darts to karaoke, giant Scrabble, and classic board games.

We’re all about creating memorable moments through the blend of flavors, experiences, and people. A place fluent in both “y’all” and “nosotros,” where fun meets flavor, games meet grits, and Mexican swagger dances with Carolina charm. Everyone is welcome, as long as they’re ready for a great time. Our approach to Southern hospitalidad means we’re not only your host but the life of the party. Step into our house, where we celebrate the spirit of inclusivity, and enjoy a little bit of everything we have to offer.
