Tacos Inspired by Michoacán
Descanso’s taco menu is a culinary journey through some of Mexico’s most iconic food regions, including Oaxaca, Puebla, and Jalisco. Prepared with blue corn or flour tortillas and topped with fresh herbs, regional cheeses, and house salsas, these tacos are an elevated homage to street food culture. Guests can enjoy options like Al Pastor Alambre, Duck Pibil, Braised Pork Belly, Chile-Rubbed Mahi Mahi, and the always-popular Birria Tacos with short rib and a side of consomé. Vegetarian options like Tacos de Calabacitas feature squash, black beans, serrano chiles, and chipotle aioli, highlighting the depth of plant-forward Mexican cuisine. Each taco is thoughtfully constructed to reflect the traditions and flavors of its place of origin—made with high-quality ingredients and served in a warm, lively Costa Mesa setting. It’s street food, redefined.
