Daisy Margarita Bar

Los Angeles, California

No. 44 on North America's 50 Best Bars 2026 and Top 10 nominee for Best New U.S. Cocktail Bar at the 2026 Spirited Awards.

Max Reis and Chef Alan Sanz, the Mírate team, opened this modern cantina on Ventura Boulevard in May 2025, and PUNCH named it among the five best new cocktail bars in America. Named after the Daisy cocktail family that predates the margarita, the program applies Mírate's ancestral-spirit sourcing and test-kitchen technique to a format built for accessibility: ceviches, tacos, and cocktails that deploy techniques unlike anything on the Valley's Ventura corridor. Daisy Margarita Bar brings Los Feliz-calibre ambition to Sherman Oaks without the queue. Los Angeles rewards the curious driver: Historic Filipinotown to Silver Lake to Koreatown to the Valley, each neighborhood pouring with a conviction shaped by the community around it. The city's bar culture mirrors its geography, vast, diverse, and impossible to reduce to a single identity. That is the point. Fill the tank and start drinking.
