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.

I went to eat here for lunch today for the first time. Thé service was excellent, the waitress recommended a few plates which were all really good. Service was fast & waitress answered all my questions concerning my food allergies. Will be coming back at night with friends.
Thank you so much

C'était la première fois que j'allais à ce resto. La nourriture était excellente, nous avons opté pour le menu dégustation. Cependant, nous avons malheureusement eu un très mauvais service, du début jusqu'à la fin ! Vraiment dommage.

Decided to try this as I am a fan of Mexican food. Sorry to say, what a disappointment this was. Had an entree of ribs. Sauce was delicious but the meat was disgusting. So fatty. Some quality control is needed on the meat you receive from your supplier.

The tacos again were good in taste but these were the size of my palms. $11 for 2 of them & no sides? I could easily eat 10 of these.

Sooooo.......I paid for my little dish & my gf (almost $70 with tip) & then I went down the street to 3 Amigos & had a decent meal for $40. I had a FULL meal there after I ate at Escondite just so you can understand what you are getting for your $$. I feel this is more a drinking hole with sides than a meal place. Would have been okay for me maybe 40 years ago lol
Sorry, won't be seeing me in here again. Overpriced for very little food.

Merci

We had a craving for Mexican food & Escondite didn't disappoint! This was a busy spot at 6:30 on a Friday night. We highly recommend making a reservation, we didn't, as a result we were seated at the bar, which since it was just two of us worked out great anyway. The bar staff were attentive & helpful describing the menu. For a starter I ordered the Margarita Media Noche, which came in a glass rimmed with cinnamon & salt perfectly complementing the citrusy cocktail. For an appetizer we chose the Atun Tostados & then for the main course we shared a platter containing a selection of Tinga Tostados, Al Pastor Tacos, Baja 2.0 Tacos & E' Steak Koreano & Nopal Tacos. Everyone of them were excellent!

Ça faisait longtemps que j'avais aussi bien mangé dans un restaurant! Tout était à notre goût. Il faut aimer manger épicé car certains plats sont bien piquants. Savoureux, recherché, bon breuvage, bon service.

Nous avons adoré notre expérience !!
Notre serveuse, Nada, étais incroyable !
Le service impeccable de la part de toute l’équipe & les Mocktails de Max (Maxime) étaient décadents.
Un endroit qui vaut le détour !
