On Saturday, November 1st, the restaurant invites guests to join in commemorating life and remembrance with an event that blends food, music, and atmosphere. The celebration features special menu items designed for the occasion, tailored drink specials, live music that elevates the evening, and face painting beginning at 6 pm to bring the spirit of the night alive for guests. The décor, artful presentation, and music all work together to capture the festive, reverent mood of the holiday.

Guests dining at Descanso during this event can expect elevated interpretations of Mexican-coastal cuisine, prepared with the kitchen’s signature plancha-style technique, and served in a way that supports communal reflection and festive interaction. From seating at the table to service of shared dishes, the evening emphasizes togetherness and cultural celebration.
