You will never be the same after this meal. I promise you! The White lasagna is a must! Incredible place for a romantic date. This is the type of restaurant for Italian connaisseurs.
Première fois pour à Escondite & franchement, je ne suis pas déçue, la bouffe était très bonne, les cocktails un régal & le service impeccable, merci à Amélie pour sa gentillesse & ses conseils !!
Escondite did not disappoint! The vibe was cool - we sat on the back patio. The mojito was good, margarita was excellent. The food was amazing - we ordered the nachos, & the following tacos: korean steak, mole, fried chicken, & the new El Paso. All were delicious but the standouts were the mole & the El Paso.

La cuisine est délicieuse, particulièrement les ailes de poulet & les tacos au poulet. L'ambiance est chaleureuse & la décoration est sympa. Les cocktails sont très bons & le service excellent, Horacio est probablement le meilleur serveur que j'ai vu dans un restaurant !
It was my first experience of a Mexican restaurant, & I'm happy to find this place! We ordered two tacos (one with the steak & the other with the fried chicken) & it was so delicious that we re-ordered the same thing! Although I believe that the guacamole was a little bit pricy. Staff were really professional. Edit: I came again & still everything was perfect, specially the waiters (I guess one was Antares?) were professional & super friendly!
