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.

Very good food but the person that took my order was someone who proposed me the most expensive drinks & i was served with more tacos than what i told the waiter my bill came back to 120$ with the 15% tips i was pissed because nobody presented me any menu & i didn't knew it was prices for escorts & sugar daddies especially when im a lonely women who lives alone with a rent to pay on my own. I will never come back here.

Dining at Escondite on Wellington was a fantastic experience. The charming location & vibrant decor create a welcoming atmosphere. The food was delicious with a diverse menu that caters to all tastes. Special mention goes to José, our server, for his attentive & friendly service. Escondite is a gem in Verdun, combining amazing food, great service, & a charming location. Highly recommended.
