Situated just a short walk from the iconic La Brea Tar Pits, Descanso Restaurant LA invites you to experience a vibrant and immersive take on modern Mexican dining in the heart of Miracle Mile. With its warm ambiance, open kitchen layout, and interactive Plancha-style service, Descanso blends the tradition of authentic Mexican street food with contemporary culinary artistry. One of our most beloved dishes, the Taquitos de Camarón, perfectly embodies this fusion. These crave-worthy tacos feature tender, marinated Mexican shrimp, thoughtfully wrapped in hand-pressed blue corn tortillas and finished with layers of flavor—from zesty mango-habanero salsa and crisp shredded lettuce to micro cilantro and a smoky morita aioli. Each bite offers a balance of heat, freshness, and coastal-inspired richness that has made it a standout favorite among both seafood lovers and first-time visitors. Whether you’re stopping in after a day at the museum or meeting friends for lunch, this dish is a true showcase of Descanso’s bold and refreshing approach to Mexican cuisine.
