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.

One word to describe our night... Amazing. Perfect for carnivores, pescatarians, vegetarians & vegans ! We were 6 people (3 couples), the waiter recommended the Escondite experience for 45$ (which we all took) it included guacamole & chips, mango & cucumber salad, chicken wings&ribs (vegan option cauliflower wings), mushroom & cheese tortilla, 3 kinds of tacos (fish, chicken &pork) & for plant based (cauliflower & vegan protein) & finally churros for dessert. Everything tasted so fresh & so flavourful. 🤤😍 The waiter also recommended the spicy margarita.... yuuuuuumm. I took 2 it was so delicious!! I hate cilantro & all I had to do is mention it & problem solved. First time I can actually enjoy so many mexican dishes without it ! Drinks & food was so good & everyone was completely full & satisfied at the end of the night. Service was perfect as well ! Food was so good we barely took the time to take pictures 😅 we stuffed our face instead! Thank you to our waier Jose 😁❤️❤️❤️
