Escondite emerges in reviews as a vibrant Mexican spot with a strong atmosphere and a welcoming, lively vibe that makes it popular for groups and celebrations. The service is frequently described as friendly, attentive, and efficient, though experiences can vary during busy periods. Food quality is praised for flavor and variety by many diners, with standout items including guacamole, mango salad, fish and birria tacos, and a range of churros and cocktails; however several comments call portions very small, tapas-like, and pricey for the amount delivered. Some guests feel the flavors are not as authentic or bold as expected, noting bland or underseasoned dishes and a lack of accompanying sides in certain orders. Many reviewers view the Experience menu or tasting flights as a good way to sample different dishes, though value remains inconsistent and some leave wishing for larger servings or better balance between price and portion. In essence, Escondite is seen as an attractive, well-run venue with generally positive food and top-tier service, yet both price and portion size can dampen the experience for those arriving hungry or on a tight budget.
Certains plats bons ou pas mauvais, comme le pain au maïs ou gyozas nacho. Mais déception pour d'autres. Manque de saveur ou saveurs incompatibles. Passe à côté dans plusieurs plats. Également tout est trop cher pour ce qu'on a. Il y a de bien meilleurs resto de ce type & il y en a qui sont moins cher également.
Très agréable notre expérience à Escondite -Solar uniquartier. On a bien aimé l'ambiance sur la terrasse, les tacos, mais principalement le service des belles filles: Érika & Jennifer. Merci & à bientôt!
J'ai pris la peine de préciser à la serveuse que je voulais qu'elle me recommande un choix très doux, pas piquant parce que je n'aime pas ça. Elle m'a conseillé les tacos de morue qui a été servi avec une mayonnaise très épicée. Je lui en ai fait la remarque pour me faire dire : ah oui? Mais pour moi ce n'est pas épicé, désolée...

Excellent sur toute la ligne! Mon conjoint est à mobilité réduite & l établissement est très bien adapté pour lui …nous avons même eut de l aide pour l ouverture des portes. Merci beaucoup!
Jeffrey is an absolute magician behind the bar. Excellent cocktails he rocked my world!! Had a fantastic time being served by Rebecca as well, took the time to give me recommendations & her service was very attentive. No complaints definitely coming back!
Demandé tacos aux champignons. Juste des champignons de Paris, zéro pleurotes… Je m'attendais à un taco qui déborderait de pleurotes & qui serait goûteux. Champignons de Paris… Fade, pas de punch! Dommage, j'avais hâte d'essayer ce resto. Sinon, tout le reste est bien !
A few weeks ago me & my friend came in to order takeout close to closing time. The food was good as usual but when we paid the waitress handed us the machine & it asked for a tip, which caught us off guard since it was just takeout & there wasn't any table service. We've picked up food here before & never had that happen. Not sure if it was intentional, but it felt like a weird way to squeeze in a few extra bucks (the receipt even had her name on it). We still tipped, but left kind of annoyed. Might skip takeout here in the future.
