Escondite est loué pour ses saveurs audacieuses et ses ingrédients frais, avec un menu à partager qui comprend la salade de mangue, le pain de maïs, le poulet à la General Chapo, des quesadillas, des tacos variés et des churros; les réservations sont recommandées les week-ends ou lors des soirées les plus fréquentées, et l'ambiance est dynamique et accueillante, adaptée aux groupes et aux célébrations; le service est souvent attentif et compétent, bien que certaines visites signalent une cadence plus lente, des commandes mélangées ou un personnel débordé; la nourriture est décrite comme de haute qualité avec de bonnes portions pour partager, mais quelques clients estiment que les prix sont élevés par rapport à la taille des portions, et l'espace peut être bruyant.
Food was really good we ended up there for a kids birthday party & the kids eat free on Sunday which was a welcomed treat & they all loved the food as much as the adults. Service was excellent & the food is a Mexican fusion which was full of flavor. We had the ceviche & the tuna delicious. We finished with three varieties of tacos the birria (lamb) was unique & delicious the steak tacos were great. We will definitely be back without the kids this time as their cocktails looked amazing.
Great food, great service! Highly recommend the tasting menu for sharing. The plates kept coming out & each was tastier than the last. Get an assortment of dips too!

3rd Escondite location that I visit & the food & service were excellent. You should consider getting a reservation to come on weekends or busier nights. We were part of a group reservation & had a tasting menu that included Mango salad, corn bread, chicken General Chapo style, quesadillas, chicken & fish Tacos & churros for dessert. All were delicious. Our server, Olivia, was very attentive & helpful, just a pleasure to deal with.
Several dishes were ordered to share among our group as recommended by our server. All dishes were delicious 😋 The service was exceptional. Our server was very attentive & knowledgeable about the different dishes.
The food is excellent; great portion sizes for sharing! It's a very cool place, although it is a bit loud. Definitely my go to Mexican place in the West Island

Great service
Restaurant was cold (in temperature)
We had the sharing menu & everything was delicious except taco contents were too deep fried. But everything else was amazing.
Just left Escondite first time getting a takeout order starving with starving gf waiting at home… I have to say - the moment I walked in, amazing staff, clean, inviting, family friendly, & positive energy.
However, * SOPHIA * completely set the bar a notch higher making this an outstanding experience. (I'm still hungry btw) She greeted me with genuine care, compassion, was extremely professional, & knew the entire menu inside-out (she even suggested the perfect pairings & explained every detail with authenticity). She represented Escondite as a brand so beautifully that I actually felt compelled to leave this review before I get on the road. Trusted her with my choices lol.
People like Sophia (are rare lately) the example of hope & kindness above everything else. 5-star reviews before you eat; I'm sure are rare too. She's not just good at her job - she's the kind of hostess every restaurant owner wishes they had on their team. Management, if you're reading this: do whatever it takes to keep her happy & valued. (I'd say bonus) but value is more appropriate ✅
Thank you :)

Absolutely nothing negative to say about this restaurant. Everything was amazing.The El General Chapo & the tacos al pastor… HOLY GUACAMOLE 🤩🤤 next-level flavor. Fresh, bold, & perfectly done.
One of those places you keep thinking about after you leave. 100% coming back.
The food is great & the atmosphere is nice. I thought the music was a bit loud, & there were a lot of us in the restaurant, so we had to talk very loudly, but that's just my personal preference. The service, unfortunately, was very disappointing. Our food came out pretty slowly. It took quite a while to get our drinks (after the first course), & the waitresses got our orders mixed up. I'm not sure if it was just a bad night, but...
Hopefully they'll improve their service next time.
Amazing tacos & very friendly service by Anna the bartender as well as the waitstaff Olivia & Sophia. Tried the camarones & Mr. Mole Tacos recommended by Anna the first time I visited, which were both equally great. Definitely recommend & on my list to visit again when in the area!

The food was wonderful but the service was so bad it was almost impossible to enjoy it. The server forgot about our table completely multiple times as well as forgetting multiple items we ordered. She brought us incorrect items & acted annoyed when we asked for what we ordered. We had to keep flagging her down so we could order our drinks, food, etc, etc. We were told we had a limit of 2 hours at our table. That was no problem, but it took almost 45 minutes just to get our drinks (two bottled beers). The table next to us arrived 15 minutes after us & got their drinks & food before us. The whole meal went this way. The manager was in the back of the restaurant the entire time, despite his servers clearly needing help. The restaurant wasn't busy, but the servers were not prepared/well trained at all. We were stressed the entire time because of the time limit & the fact that everything took forever. It felt more like I was at work, instead of having a relaxed night out. Even though the food was good, we won't be returning. Eating out is expensive & not worth it when the server ignores you or acts like you are putting them out by being there.
The fantastic team at Escondite DDO always take such great care of us. We enjoyed a savory meal with delightful flavors!!! We spent a lot because we drank shots (6x), Beers (7x) , Skinny & Spicy Margaritas (2x) as well!!
Sam really cares about all clients & we have NEVER, EVER been disappointed after 20 + times eating there!
The photos are old, we go often & I had taken these in 2020!!! LOVE IT!!! 💘 😻
Came here looking for a fun spot with a great vibe & Escondite totally delivered.
Huge shout-out to Anna - she was super friendly, asked the right questions, & nailed the cocktail & food recommendations. Everything was full of flavour. We'll definitely be back. Thanks for a great night! 👏🍹🌮
