We had a quick taco lunch while exploring the area. Service was very good, friendly & attentive. Food was quite yummy! Decor was very cool!
If you're in the Old Port of Montreal & craving some fun, vibrant Mexican food with a creative twist, Escondite Vieux-Port is definitely worth checking out.
We stumbled upon this spot while wandering the cobblestone streets & were drawn in by the playful vibe, colorful decor, & upbeat music. The interior is eclectic & cozy, with Day of the Dead artwork, quirky details, & a lively but chill ambiance that makes it feel like a hidden gem.
Now to the food - overall, it was very good, with a few standout hits & a couple of misses depending on your palate. The tacos are the star of the show. We tried a variety (the Gobernador, Pollo Frito, & Camaron), & each one had its own distinct flavor & presentation. The shrimp tacos were my personal favorite - crispy, fresh, & packed with flavor.
The guacamole & chips were solid - not mind-blowing, but fresh & satisfying. We also ordered the queso fundido, which was ooey-gooey indulgence, especially when paired with the chips. The Mexican street corn (elotes) was delicious & charred just right.
Drinks-wise, the cocktail menu is creative, & the margaritas are well-balanced with a little flair. Great spot for a round of drinks with friends or a date night.
Service was friendly but could've been a bit more attentive. It got busy during peak hours, so there were some small delays in checking in & getting the bill, but nothing major.
Prices are fair for the area, especially given the quality & portion size. Definitely on the trendier side, but not overly pretentious.
All in all, Escondite Vieux-Port is a fun & flavorful stop in Old Montreal - a cool vibe, bold flavors, & a solid addition to the Montreal taco scene. Would definitely return to try more of the menu!
We had a great experience, & mostly thanks to our waiter, Diego. He was attentive, warm, & had perfect timing, making us feel taken care of without ever hovering. His food suggestions were spot-on. The excellent service made an already delicious dinner even better.
Had a lovely time
I must thank my waiter Diego who was just wonderful.
Helpful, attentive, charming & complimented the great Gyoza.
Great evening
Funky taqueria with a super interesting dish - Gyoza Nacho - Asian dumplings with a Mexican twist. Our waiter, Diego, was very attentive.
Amazing margaritas & standout Mexican tacos - bold, flavourful, & unforgettable. Attentive & friendly service.
Our server, Daniel, was absolutely amazing! I went out with my sister, & we always argue over who gets to cover the bill. I asked Daniel to bring out just one bill, but he cleverly brought out two-one of which included the full total, while the other made it seem like the bill was split. My sister assumed we were paying separately, only to realize after I had already covered everything. It was such a small detail, but it completely caught us both by surprise since it's not something servers typically do. A brilliant trick on his part! Beyond that, his service throughout the evening was exceptional. He was attentive, friendly, & made our experience even better. I'd love to have him as our server again!
Jake the bartender is amazing! Super attentive & great service! Will definitely be back :)
Escondite Vieux-Port in Montreal is an absolute gem! From the moment I walked in, I was enchanted by the warm & cozy ambiance. The rustic decor & dim lighting create an inviting atmosphere that’s perfect for a night out.
Now, let’s talk about the food. The menu is a delightful fusion of Mexican & Southern cuisine, & every dish I tried was a flavor explosion. The tacos are a must-try; they’re packed with fresh ingredients & bold spices. The cocktails are equally impressive, with a wide variety to choose from.
What sets Escondite apart, though, is the outstanding service. The staff is incredibly friendly, attentive, & knowledgeable about the menu. They made great recommendations & ensured our dining experience was top-notch.
Whether you’re looking for a romantic dinner spot or a fun night out with friends, Escondite Vieux-Port delivers on all fronts. I can’t wait to go back & explore more of their delicious offerings!
