Michoacán-inspired seafood dishes
Descanso LA brings the freshness of Mexico’s coastal states to Miracle Mile with a selection of seafood-forward dishesrooted in the traditions of Nayarit, Sinaloa, and Baja California. At the center of this coastal celebration is the Ceviche Tropical, featuring local sea bass marinated in lime with mango, jicama, cucumber, Fresno chiles, red onion, and mango-habanero salsa. For a heartier option, the Ceviche Campechano combines octopus, shrimp, and white fish in a clam-tomato marinade, topped with avocado and micro cilantro. These vibrant, chilled ceviches are served with tortilla chips and reflect the light, tangy, and refreshing characteristics of Mexican marisquerías. Pair these with a house margarita or mezcal cocktail, and you’ll experience the Pacific flavors that define Mexico’s seaside culinary traditions—all just steps from LACMA and the La Brea Tar Pits.
