Review Summary

Reviews portray Escondite as a lively taqueria with bright decor and a warm, festive vibe that shifts from relaxed to buzzing depending on the night. The food draws praise for bold flavors and fresh ingredients, with the tasting menu and standout tacos earning frequent compliments, while portions are often described as small and prices high for the size. Service is usually friendly and attentive, though opinions split on speed and consistency during busy periods. The atmosphere on the terrace is delightful when weather and street life cooperate, while the interior can be loud with music and crowds. Occasional notes mention fine touches for celebrations and some guests feeling charged for extras on the bill, underscoring a wish for clearer pricing. Overall, Escondite comes across as a tasty, vibrant spot with a memorable vibe, delivering strong experiences on some visits and more mixed ones on others.

I ate & drank like a mexican goddess, had the Escondite experience which is perfect for people who can't decide what to get (because honestly every item on their menu is mouthwatering). Our waiter & all the staff were true gems & very attentive. Their prime tequila cocktails were also amazing. This is my third time at Escondite, first two were on Union, & am not disappointed with the quality of their franchise. 10/10 do recommand. Can't wait for the next time

I highly recommend this place, great service, atmosphere, & very tasty Mexican food. The margaritas were also fantastic. Good place to dine out with your better half or friends.

Great food, very nice ambiance & the team is chill & very welcoming! Love the fact they have a unique twist on mexican food, with a hint of Asia. Love the flavors & the amazing dishes, lots of choices. My favorites are the baja tacos, pollos hermanos & nacho 2.0 dumplings! Big shout out to a wonderful host & bartender Cristian
