Damian/Ditroit

Location: Arts District Los Angeles, CA
Project Type: Restaurant
Area: 5,400 SF + 1,800 SF Courtyard and Patio

LMA collaborated with designer Alonzo de Garay to repurpose two existing warehouse spaces and their courtyard into a new restaurant for internationally renowned chef, Enrique Olvera. Damian retains its historic industrial roots but brings an upscale feel with dramatic lighting, custom-designed seating and casework elements, and lush planters. Nestled in Damian’s rear patio is its more casual taco window, Ditroit.
