Gourmet in the Garden

The Kitchen at Descanso is delighted to introduce Gourmet in the Garden! Enjoy your meal al fresco on Magnolia Lawn or order a feast to go and enjoy it at home.

Gourmet in the Garden is a great way to enjoy the garden while you have a wonderful lunch, dinner, or happy hour. Order your meal and make a reservation, then pick it up at the kiosk in the courtyard. Your reserved – socially distanced – table will be waiting for you at Magnolia Lawn. Please note that you will need a membership or ticket to enter the gardens.
