Review Summary

Feedback on Escondite highlights a lively, cozy atmosphere with colorful decor, flavorful dishes and creative drinks, and attentive service that many describe as friendly and efficient. Tacos, guacamole, and other Mexican staples are frequently praised, with favorites like alambre tacos and birria mentioned, and drinks such as spicy margaritas getting strong praise. While the majority of reviews are positive, some notes point to small portions and higher prices for Montreal, and a few busy nights bring slower service or late dishes. Some guests enjoy the tasting or experience menu, though it can lead to confusion about portions, and the space is seen as a good spot for groups, pre event meals, or casual outings. Overall Escondite is seen as a reliable pick for tasty food, great drinks, and a lively ambiance, with many saying they would return.

I went here on a Saturday night at about 9 without a reservation, but they were fortunately able to give me a table for 2, without any wait!

My friend & I first had cocktails which were quite nice! One had jalapeños & was a bit spicy, while the other was quite strong, which I enjoyed.

The tacos were very flavourful & the texture was perfectly crunchy but not too crunchy. I’ve been here once before & I’ve enjoyed it both times now. Would highly recommend!

the food is always fresh, well spiced, cooked & presented. I have tried 90% of the menu from tacos to the chicken wings (the best wings ever), the salads & the desserts & everything is fabulous. The service at the bar is great & they tend to the client's needs well. The barmen are all very friendly & cool. However, one female server was incredibly rude to us one time. We come there to eat all the time & she treated us like non-clients once. My aunt had already payed the bill inside of the restaurant & this particular server taught that we did not pay & as we tried to leave, she blocked our way & put her arms in front of us like we were robbers or something. My aunt & my mom did not have & directly handled it with the manager who was understanding & shocked of her employee's behavior.
