Escondite earns praise for bold flavors and fresh ingredients, with a share-friendly menu that includes mango salad, corn bread, chicken General Chapo style, quesadillas, various tacos and churros; reservations are recommended on weekends or busy nights, and the atmosphere is vibrant and welcoming, well suited for groups and celebrations; service is frequently attentive and knowledgeable, though some visits report slower pacing, mixed-up orders, and staff stretched by the front of house; the food is described as high quality with good portion sizes for sharing, yet a few guests note prices are high for the portion size, and the space can be loud.
We thoroughly enjoyed our evening at escondite. The food was excellent, very flavourful! The atmosphere & the decor were great, & the service was fantastic. We did not feel rushed at all, which helped make this a very nice experience. There are delicious options for vegetarians.
Amazing decorations. There's a buzz at this spot! Everyone enjoying themselves plus the food. a really beautiful spot! Employees are friendly & some speak 3 languages!! Amazing! 😍 good service.

Cuisine: I loved the authentic Mexican signature Drinks perfect mixing Guacamole was excellent The decoration was very carefully made authentic. It is a very cosy & warm place The service was exceptional & personal I felt welcomed & at home
Première fois & certainement pas la dernière! Toute une expérience culinaire que nous avons eu moi & ma femme! Entrées delicieuses; Nacho 2.0 & général chapon. Repas de tacos qui vient en même temps que l'entrée; camarone & cochinita pibil & les desserts tout simple; churros & keylime pie. La serveuse était très gentille & professionnelle. Nous a laissée le temps de nous adapter au menu & nous a guidée pour bien choisir. Ambiance fabuleuse! Musique & décors sur les murs. Même les toilettes sont spéciales! Lumière orange tamisée & les lavabos sont à l'extérieur des toilettes, comme su Mexique! On a été ravis! 10 sur 10!!😊❤️

Food is tasty but the portion are really really smalll & expensive. Left there hungry. Service is fine. But felt pushed to order more. West Island location needs a redo, the decor is & atmosphere is just okay, not very inviting.
Great Mexican food, it's full of flavor & the service is really fast. The atmosphere is great, there's a band that plays at night & the employees are really nice & pleasant. Food is worth the price, portions are good. The place is filled with art & decorations that gives a good vibe & the music played is mostly Spanish so it makes the vibe even better. Lots & lots of free parking & it's wheelchair accessible. The food is really good & the ingredients they use are fresh. Each meal is full of colors & it tastes wonderful. Overall great experience & I will come back.
