Au-delà de la sélection de tacos, la cuisine prépare divers classiques latino-américains incluant des quesadillas savoureuses et des entrées à partager conçues pour une consommation conviviale.

Escondite est largement reconnu pour sa cuisine fusion mexicaine authentique et savoureuse, de nombreux clients louant la fraîcheur des ingrédients et la qualité des plats tels que les tacos birria et les cocktails signatures. Bien que l'ambiance soit souvent décrite comme vibrante, énergique et idéale pour les célébrations, certains convives trouvent le volume de la musique trop élevé pour permettre une conversation facile. Les avis sur le service sont partagés, allant d'une attention exceptionnelle à une certaine lenteur ou désorganisation selon les périodes. Si la majorité des clients considèrent cet établissement comme une destination de choix pour sortir, certains commentaires soulignent que la taille des portions peut sembler petite par rapport au prix, et que la valeur de certaines expériences de menus dégustation reste un sujet de débat parmi les habitués.
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!
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.
Beautiful interior, excellent margaritas (aperol marg was particularly fantastic), & the food was so fresh, high quality, & delicious. Relaxed service but everyone was nice & helpful. Highly recommend the steak tacos!!
Good meal with my two young kids. The staff were friendly & the food excellent. Many different flavours & textures, which I love. This includes some creative interpretation of nachos & tacos which made it fun. Adult portions are on the smaller side, so if you're hungry, probably order two sets of two tacos (you can't mix & match). My only (very minor) complaint is that the dishes came very quickly, before we could even put a dent in the appetizers. Probably worth asking them to hold the mains until you're done if that's how you like to eat. Definitely recommend!
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.
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).
