Venice Beach has long been defined by creativity, energy, and a strong sense of place. Now, that spirit is about to welcome a new chapter in modern Mexican dining. Ditroit Taqueria and Damian Marisquería are set to open soon in Venice Beach, bringing two distinct yet connected expressions of Mexican cuisine to the coast.
A New Setting for Familiar Philosophy
Both concepts share a commitment to flavor, technique, and respect for ingredients—but Venice Beach offers a completely different backdrop from Downtown LA. The move reflects a natural evolution: taking well-defined culinary ideas and adapting them to a coastal environment that values informality, freshness, and rhythm.
Rather than replicating their DTLA presence, Ditroit Taqueria and Damian Marisquería are designed to respond to their new surroundings.
Ditroit Taqueria: Casual Tacos by the Coast
At Ditroit Taqueria , the focus remains on well-crafted tacos rooted in traditional Mexican recipes and modern execution. In Venice Beach, the experience leans into an easygoing, everyday mindset—perfect for the neighborhood’s relaxed pace. The emphasis is on simplicity, balance, and consistency, offering food that feels effortless yet intentional.
It’s a taquería meant to fit seamlessly into daily life by the beach.
Damian Marisquería: A Seafood-Driven Expression
Damian Marisquería introduces a complementary perspective, centered on Mexican seafood traditions. Fresh ingredients, thoughtful technique, and depth of flavor define the approach, translating coastal influences into a menu that feels refined but accessible.
Together with Ditroit Taqueria , it completes a broader picture of modern Mexican cuisine—one that moves fluidly between casual and composed.
Why Venice Beach
Venice Beach is a natural next step for both restaurants. Its community values quality without formality, flavor without excess. By opening here, Ditroit Taqueria and Damian Marisquería extend their shared philosophy beyond Downtown LA, connecting with a new audience while staying true to their roots.
As these openings approach, Venice Beach is set to become a new destination for thoughtful, modern Mexican dining—right where the city meets the ocean.
