Overall, Escondite is described as a bold, fresh Mexican spot with vibrant flavors, standout guacamole and chips, and a lively, welcoming atmosphere that many guests remember after leaving; the menu is praised for variety and quality, with favorites like birria Koreano and a range of tacos, and the Escondite experience is commonly recommended for first visits to sample several tapas alongside strong cocktails. Service is a mixed bag, with some visits featuring attentive staff and quick, smooth service while others report slow pacing and orders being mixed up or missed, which dampen the meal; noise levels can be high and some guests feel portions are small for the price, yet the food is repeatedly described as delicious and inventive, and the overall vibe and consistency encourage return visits.
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 very good & service is good, but DO NOT make your reservation over the phone. Make it online, or they will lose your reservation & ruin your plans for that evening.
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.

Nice menu with atypical items that were very good. Service was good & they were very friendly. The giant mural of the Mexican "Last Supper" is brilliant!
Fun atmosphere & good food Service was friendly & not overbearing. The guize nachos were an unexpected, fun fusion. Only thing I really didn’t like was the margarita media noche.
