The food & ambiance were excellent, but the icing on the cake was Agustin's attendance, which made everything more special.

À travers un décor magnifique & chaleureux, nous avons été accueillis par José. En plus d'être accueillant, il a su nous conseiller sur nos drinks & notre repas. Escondite Verdun est un des meilleurs restaurants mexicain où je suis allé. Ingrédients frais & de superbes saveurs. Je recommande!
