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.

The baja tacos were a burst of freshness in every bite! From the crisp veggies to the succulent seafood, every ingredient tasted like it was just picked. The customer service was exceptional, making our dining experience even more enjoyable. My fiancé, who wasn't a fan of Mexican cuisine, was won over by the flavors & hospitality. Can't wait to visit again soon!

La bouffe est très bonne, malheureusement le band mexicain n'est pas bon & on ne s'entend pas parler.

Pleasantly surprised by the delicious tasting menu. Food & service was phenomenal, the waiter Jose was very nice & every time he came by with the following dish he would brighten up the experience by striking a pleasant conversation. Cannot recommend this place enough, can't wait to go back!

Nous sommes allés souper un dimanche soir. Nous avons apprécié le souper. Le décor du resto est vraiment bien réussi. Le service étaiit rapide. On commandait & l'assiette arrivait peu de temps après. Qualité/prix, je donne un 10/10!! C'était très abordable. Je pensais que les tacos étaient petit mais ils sont assez garnis.
