Review Summary

Escondite receives high praise for its flavorful Mexican dishes, vibrant atmosphere, and creative decor, with many diners highlighting the tacos and margaritas as standout items. While several guests report exceptional, attentive service that makes for a memorable experience, others express frustration regarding inconsistent service quality, issues with billing clarity, or small portion sizes relative to the price. Although the majority of visitors recommend the restaurant as a fun destination for a night out or a special occasion, some note concerns about cleanliness, music volume, and the lack of flexibility in menu customization.

It sounds like you had a decent experience with the service & food, but the atmosphere was lacking the vibrant Mexican spirit compared to other competitors.

Very disappointing experience; we ordered the Escondite experience. Regardless of whether the price is worth it or not (which personally I think it s overpriced for what we got), the food taste was less then average. We got a cucumber salad (not impressed at all with the taste) a guacamole (maybe the only minidish that we could finish), 4 small tacos (pork & beef very dry) & ribs which was average. Seeing the stars given by other people who actually ate there; I am very surprised & disappointed. The staff did not even distinguish which platters were the shared ones & we had to guess. My personal opinion: i do not recommend this Mexican place neither for the food nor the ambiance (we had to cut our dinner short because of the 1hr30min service which you might want to consider if you are reuniting with friends & don't want to be rushed!)

Dès qu'on passe les portes de ce restaurant nous sommes transportés au Mexique, le décor est magnifique! Pour le dîner nous avons opté pour le menu dégustation & nous avons été complètement conquis! Je vous le recommande, sans hésiter. Vraiment bonne bouffe, coup de coeur pour la salade de mangue, & les tacos de morue

We had a great experience at Escondite Laval! We were a group of 20 people & everyone was happy with the service & quality of food. The staff & manager were very attentive & accommodating! The group menu was also reasonably priced. Would definitely recommend if you're looking to celebrate a birthday or any occasion!

This is more like a drink place , I thought was a restaurant. The food is a little pricey but is good in general. I personally didn't like the general Chapo, the sweet sauce it was not good, is like they pour the whole jam on the chicken & it was hard to enjoy. We also had tacos which were very good but also small, almost like snack size & they cost $11 for 2 so yeah. I feel like we didn't have a lot of things (just 2 drinks & 2 plates) & the bill went up to $80 The place is generally good , don't get me wrong, the atmosphere is nice for a bar, but is pricey for the portion they serve The staff were friendly & attentive all the time.
