Review Summary

Escondite generally earns praise for its vibrant atmosphere, creative decor, and flavorful menu, with many diners highlighting the tacos, cocktails, and brunch options as standout experiences. While the tasting menu is frequently recommended as a way to enjoy a variety of high-quality dishes, opinions on value are polarized due to concerns over small portion sizes and the total cost. Service quality appears to be inconsistent across visits, with many guests reporting friendly and attentive care, while others note instances of slow service, errors, or a lack of professionalism that detract from the otherwise festive environment.

Jose was the best server we could have possibly asked for! Super kind & helpful & recommended the fiesta on the table (the best the restaurant had to offer) & it really was fantastic. Would highly recommend everything, but the mango salad & ribs were to die for. Leche margarita was deadly. Churros were mind blowing. I want to come back for my birthday in January with all my friends & fam! ❤️

The taste of the food is good but it's not really Mexican flavour because it's missing the spicy. Ideally for people that cannot eat chili

Went for lunch a quick bite, but I'm guessing the night menu is better. Nice textures in modern Mexican tacos, & everything was nice. Will be visiting at dinner time to try out again.

Good tacos but you need to order a few because they're very small. We also got churros & they were still a bit raw inside.
