Designed by León Orraca [Arquitectos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/javier-senosiain-arquitectos) (LOA), Le Tequila South is a stunning restaurant located in Guadalajara, Mexico. Located within a shopping complex, the stylized eatery gives off the feel of a vintage apothecary due to its well-curated display of antique bottles and reflection of the region's history.

An over rustic experience, the Guadalajara restaurant features sharp contemporary details that is also reflected in the menu. A mix of exposed brick and wooden canopies, the space is charming and welcoming but retains a certain sophistication. A 20-year-old business, La Tequila South was designed with an emphasis on creating the most functional layout possible.

A space rich in both texture and color, the Guadalajara spot features a host of greenery including the [local agave plant](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mezcal-palenque) that can be seen on the mezzanine level.
