At Descanso LA, the traditional recipes and rustic flavors of Michoacán are brought to life through chef-driven presentation and elevated ingredients. Located in the heart of Mid-Wilshire, the restaurant celebrates this region’s deep culinary heritage with dishes like Pollo Maya—achiote-marinated chicken grilled with summer squash, bell peppers, cherry tomatoes, and habanero-pickled red onion—and the fan-favorite Pork Loin Alambre, seared al pastor–style with bell peppers, tres quesos, avocado toreado salsa, and serrano chiles. Cooked to order on the tableside plancha grill, these dishes preserve their bold, earthy flavors while adding a layer of presentation and engagement that’s rare in modern dining. The results are both vibrant and refined—ideal for diners looking to explore authentic Mexican cuisine in a contemporary, polished atmosphere. With its open kitchen energy, elevated service, and proximity to Museum Row, Descanso LA is where the time-honored dishes of Michoacán meet the luxury and innovation of Los Angeles dining.
