Escondite has become one of my all time favourite restaurants. I've tried almost every location & I have to say the West Island is the best! The service is always 10/10 like a few days ago I came to eat dinner with my friends & were served by Olivia, she was quick, attentive & frequently checked on us to make sure we had whatever we needed. Also not to mention a total sweetheart! It makes me sad that they're not as busy as they should be because the food & drinks are incredible! Come eat here & get a Margarita Medianoche, share a guac then grab the Esteak Koreano tacos, I promise you won't regret it!!

Escondite is so consistently fresh, delicious, & full of bold flavours! My friend & I are both from California & crave Cali-Mex & Escondite always hits! We always get the guac, trio of salsas, & their perfect chips. Some faves are their ribs (sweet, spicy, sticky, & fall off the bone), shrimp tacos, Baja tacos, & cilantro smash cocktails.

250$ for what's seen in attached picture, pactically theft. 8$ for a cornbread muffin & 10$ per taco? We picked this up down the street shortly after they opened on Sunday night & the tacos were dry. Unfathomable. Won't be ordering here again.

Honestly, given that we were the only group in the restaurant (it was a storm day so there was really no other customers there), the service was slow & they missed some of our orders - I also find the drinks Extremely expensive

Water tasts like alge, I couldn't stomach it. Seems like a west island problem the restaurant should be aware of. No chips & salsa, no hot sause with tacos. Key ingredient was missing from my tacos (the cactus).

A place with pleasant decor. The food is ok but a little expensive for tapas as a single dish is not enough.
