Luxury Regional Street Food

At Descanso LA, the street foods of Oaxaca, Jalisco, Puebla, and Yucatán are honored through modern, chef-crafted tacos that balance bold tradition with elevated presentation. Each taco is built on handmade blue corn tortillas and finished with complementary garnishes like cotija cheese, avocado toreado salsa, serrano chile, or morita aioli. Popular choices include the Duck Pibil, braised with spices and citrus; the Chile-Rubbed Mahi Mahi, served with mango-habanero salsa and cotija; the Birria Tacos, filled with short rib estofado and served alongside rich consomé; and vegetarian-forward options like the Tacos de Calabacitas, made with squash, black beans, and chipotle aioli. These are not grab-and-go tacos—they are plated and executed with the precision and ingredient quality you’d expect in a modern LA kitchen. Whether enjoyed as a full dinner or a shared tasting experience, Descanso’s taco program delivers comfort food redefined for the refined diner.
